KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Ayia Napa
- Car hire in Ayia Napa is a really good idea when you’re visiting this popular resort town in south-east Cyprus. It has been a favourite European getaway for many years and it lends itself very well to a self-drive holiday. You’ll have the freedom to explore the lesser known attractions outside the town too. The pick of these is Konnos Bay, tucked away from the busy resort beaches. To the east of Ayia Napa is Cape Greco, beneath which are the Sea Caves, where you can swim in the almost transparent water.
- To reach Ayia Napa you’ll fly into Larnaca Airport. Here you can pick up your pre-booked hire car very easily. Once you’ve cleared customs and emerge in the arrivals hall, simply turn left and you’ll see all of the operators’ kiosks there, including Sixt, Avis, Europcar and more. The car park is just across the road from the terminal building. You’ll get a good chance to test your hire car a bit on the roughly 60 km drive from the airport to Ayia Napa (about 36 miles). It will take you around 40min.
- Ayia Napa has a reputation as the holiday party capital of Cyprus, known for throngs of youths in the resort and nightlife areas. It has calmed down somewhat since, but it’s still a major destination for revellers. You’ll always have to be on the look-out for crowds of pedestrians, during the day as well as at night. There are many other types of holiday-makers to consider when you’re enjoying your car hire in Ayia Napa, mostly families strolling between the beaches in the waterfront area.
- Being almost exclusively a holiday resort, you won’t get the typical rush hour pattern that you might be used to in a UK city. Both the vehicular traffic and the pedestrian traffic will ebb and flow throughout the day and late into the night, so you can be held up for short periods at virtually any hour of the day. You can mitigate this somewhat by staying away from the streets in party central in the town, especially Nissi Avenue, Tefkrou Anthia and Kryou Nerou. Also be circumspect in the area of the roundabout connecting Kavo Gkreko with Rethymnou Avenue.
- Book your car hire in Ayia Napa at least 4 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Mini car hire in Ayia Napa are around 44% cheaper than other car types, on average
FAQs about hiring a car in Ayia Napa
What type of car is recommended for driving in Ayia Napa?
Given the densely populated tourist areas, the unpredictable traffic and the maze-like smaller side streets, your choices when it comes to Ayia Napa car hire can quite easily be narrowed down. For the sake of convenience if you’re going to spend a lot of time in the resort areas, choose the smallest vehicle that is still comfortable. A modern, fuel-efficient small city car will be ideal if there are only one or two of you, while a compact MPV will be ideal for larger groups and families. However, if you’re exploring more of this corner of the island, then choose something more rugged, like an SUV or 4x4.
What’s the speed limit in Ayia Napa?
In the central built-up areas that make up the vast majority of Ayia Napa, the speed limit is 50km/h (about 30mph). Remember that all the signs are inkm/h as Cyprus uses the metric system.

Pros:
They were friendly.Cons:
They didn't have the car I booked. I wasted a lot of time there, and after arriving, they made me wait, then they processed my documents. After I was there 20 minutes, they told me; "Oh, sorry, we don't have a car for you."AERCAR
