Press Release Body: Cyprus has been one of the apparent success stories in overseas
property investment terms in recent years, with rising prices, the economic kudos of
first joining the European Union and then adopting the euro as its national
currency, followed by the tantalising possibilities for the future that
reunification with the Turkish north could bring.

In the midst of it all, the appeal of Cyprus has not been too hard to talk up, given
its position in the Mediterranean with plenty of sun, sea and sand, yet with a rich
cultural and archaeological history created by the presence of so many
civilisations.

Yet surprising as it may seem to some, the tourist industry on the island has taken
a dip in recent years, not something which buy-to-let investors owning property in
tourist areas may want to hear. But, the Cypriot Financial Mirror reports, the
Cyprus Hoteliers\' Association and the Cyprus Tourism Organisation both expect the
trend to improve, quoting research from the former organisation\'s trade magazine and
expressing the view that the credit crunch will not deter tourists from Britain and
the US.

Of course, the question some will ask is that of how good the Cyprus tourist
industry actually is. There is currently a major advertising drive underway
involving tennis star Marcos Baghdatis and UK viewers may have seen the adverts on
TV, but the presence of quality facilities matters for those tourists who want a
little more than just a few natural attractions and the near-guarantee of hot
weather.

For that reason it may be reassuring to hear that the Colombia Beach Resort in
Pissouri Bay has been nominated for two World Travel awards, Easier reports. The
presence of five star hotels in such locations may be a clear implication that the
Cypriots are not pitching themselves low.

More importantly, the presence of high-quality Cyprus property for investment to buy
is also present. The Daily Telegraph reports that the sort of property that is
available for overseas buyers includes examples such as the newly-built Vikla
village above Paphos Cyprus Property for as little as €260,000 (£203,000), with this
particular instance involving a buy now-pay later deal.

How the Cypriot tourist market performs this year is, of course, something that
remains to be seen, although many European visitors will enjoy not having to change
currency before flying in. But further growth in the industry - whether stimulated
by advertising or changes in taste that see visitors try the country as an
alternative to other Mediterranean destinations - could see the property market
boosted yet further.
