Decrease in Tourism Bookings in Cyprus for August

August 5, 2026

Tourism in Cyprus is returning to more normal rhythms, but bookings in August are down by 10% compared to last year. Hoteliers are hopeful that last-minute bookings will improve the situation. The President of STEK noted that occupancy rates do not fully reflect the tourism year's picture. The fear caused by developments in the Middle East remains a barrier. Despite the challenges, hotel units have already signed contracts for the 2027 tourist season.
