Why Mare Ayia Napa Is a dream for food lovers

Eight restaurants, endless choice

Whether you're craving authentic local recipes, Italian classics, or something quick between swims, Mare Ayia Napa has every meal covered. Six restaurants are included within the all-inclusive package, giving guests plenty of variety throughout their stay. Start with generous spreads at The Buffet Restaurant, settle in for handmade pasta and rustic pizzas at Nico Italian Restaurant, enjoy grilled favourites with sea views at BBBQ Beach Barbecue, or sample traditional Greek Cypriot dishes at Estia Local Creative Cuisine.

Aróma Mediterranean Cuisine brings refined dining to adults, while Burger Club serves freshly grilled burgers and crispy fries that are always a family favourite. For something more indulgent, Kayō Asian Restaurant and Meat & Salt Steak House are available at an additional cost, offering everything from Peruvian-inspired sushi to premium dry-aged steaks.

Snacks, sweet treats, and cocktails from morning to night

Holidays don't always stick to mealtimes, and that's where Mare Ayia Napa really shines. Grab & Go keeps sandwiches, pastries, coffees, and light bites available throughout the day for anyone heading off on an excursion or simply relaxing by the pool. Street Lab serves gyros, wraps, burgers, fresh salads, and desserts, making it perfect for an easy lunch without interrupting your day. Then there's Scoops Gelateria, where creamy ice cream with a choice of toppings provides welcome relief from the Cypriot sunshine. When it's time for a drink, guests can choose from an extensive cocktail menu alongside international branded spirits, wines, beers, soft drinks, and premium coffees served across the resort's collection of bars.

 

Beachfront dining with a Mediterranean backdrop

Being right on the beachfront means your table is never far from the sea. Enjoy a leisurely lunch overlooking the water, sip a cocktail from Waves Beach Bar with your feet in the sand, or spend the afternoon by the pool with drinks delivered from Ammos Pool Bar or the swim-up Cabana Pool Bar. As evening arrives, the atmosphere shifts effortlessly, with the adults-only Sky Lounge serving expertly mixed cocktails alongside DJ sets, while the Lobby Bar offers live music and signature drinks in a more laid-back setting. Whether you're celebrating over dinner, enjoying a sunset drink, or simply ordering another refreshing mocktail, every part of the day comes with a different setting to enjoy.
