Hiatus | An Island Mountain Getaway

Introducing: Hiatus — An Island Mountain Getaway

Cyprus | 5 Days · 4 Nights

This year, after moving to Cyprus and falling deeply in love with the island’s magic, I knew I had to share it with others who crave escape, peace, and beauty.
So I created Hiatus—a curated, intimate getaway for travelers who want to truly reset and immerse themselves in something real.

Book Your Hiatus

Picture this: mountain air, quiet roads, ancient villages, warm Cypriot hospitality, and slow mornings overlooking vineyards. Beaches that look unreal. Food that feels like home. Moments that stay with you long after you’ve left.

This is your pause.
Your break from everything.
Your Hiatus.

Your Home for 5 days in the Mountains: Fikardou Chalet

We’ll be staying at the stunning Fikardou Chalet, tucked into the mountainside, surrounded by history, nature, and peace. 

 Wake up to vineyard views, breathe in crisp mountain air, and enjoy a fridge stocked with complimentary local favorites. The Chalet features a warm, cozy interior, spacious rooms, scenic outdoor seating areas, private, serene atmosphere perfect for unwinding and a pool only steps away from your room.
