The Old Monastery
Whitewashed walls, cobalt shutters and a pool the colour of the sea — a 120-year-old guest retreat between the Kyrenia mountains and the Mediterranean.
A place of rest, refreshment and inspiration.
The Old Monastery has watched over this hillside for more than a century — an Ottoman refuge, then a monastery, then the architect Pearce Hubbard's home.
Today: eight self-catering homes, a hand-dug pool and 330 days of sun a year.
A whitewashed cloister above the sea
Moorish arches, a domed hammam, two shaded courtyards and a turquoise pool dug by hand.
Behind every blue door
Painted timber doors, cobalt shutters and hand-laid tiles — the blue that has coloured this house for generations.

An atmosphere of peace
Some come for the pool and the sun. Many come for something quieter — the stillness the monastery has kept for 120 years. The chapel, the cloister garden and the art studio are open to guests, retreats and workshops.
Loved by guests who return
What a wonderful place! We stayed as a family of 8 + 1 baby in the Old Monastery 1 for a week in October. We truly enjoyed the atmosphere of the place: the pool, the yard, the house. Everything was absolutely to our satisfaction and we especially liked that there were so many options to be together and also spend time alone since TOM has many rooms and places to sit and read or talk. Thank you for a wonderful stay - we highly recommend the Old Monastery to everyone.
Beautiful and peaceful little place to stay in Lapta, just a few minutes away from the Beach. Perfect to enjoy the beauty of Cyprus!
One of the best places in cyprus.
Fabulous place to stay. The owners are very friendly and helpful.
We had a lovely room with a fireplace. Cool, older style place.
