Club Alda Hotel – Warm Hospitality and Coastal Calm in Lapta, Northern Cyprus
The Region: Lapta – A Peaceful Seaside Haven on the Kyrenia Coast
Located along the serene western coastline of Northern Cyprus, Lapta is a traditional Cypriot village nestled between the Kyrenia mountains and the Mediterranean Sea. Just 12 kilometers west of Kyrenia (Girne), it combines historical richness, local charm, and natural beauty, making it one of the most sought-after destinations for travelers who prefer a quieter, more authentic alternative to urban tourism centers.
Lapta’s landscape is framed by olive groves, citrus orchards, and winding roads that lead down to calm beaches and rocky coves. The Lapta Coastal Walkway—a scenic seaside path built on wooden platforms—is a favorite spot for locals and visitors to stroll, jog, or watch the sunset. Small beaches, hidden bays, and casual beach clubs like Silver Rocks, Sunset Beach, and LA Beach offer a relaxing day by the sea without the crowds of major resorts.
The village itself has preserved its Cypriot identity, with traditional stone houses, local bakeries, and family-run tavernas. It is ideal for those who enjoy slow travel, morning hikes, or sipping Turkish coffee under a lemon tree. Just inland, the foothills of the Five Finger Mountains provide opportunities for trekking and panoramic views of the coastline.
Despite its tranquil setting, Lapta is well-connected. Ercan International Airport is around 50 minutes away, while Kyrenia’s bustling harbor, nightlife, shopping, and historical sites are just a 15-minute drive along the scenic coastal road. This balance of accessibility and peacefulness makes Lapta perfect for couples, families, and long-term visitors seeking restful yet convenient holidays.
