Premium Access Cyprus has confirmed plans to deliver a landmark waterfront development in Larnaca with the Palm Beach Resort, a mixed‑use project budgeted at more than €110 million and due to open in 2027. The development is designed to unite luxury hospitality, premium residences and lifestyle facilities in a single destination, according to company executives.
“Palm Beach Resort represents one of the most important investments in our portfolio. Beyond its financial scale, it demonstrates our ambition to develop projects that combine hospitality, residential living and lifestyle in a single destination.”
The project is being delivered by Premium Access Cyprus, a local arm of Premium Access, a privately owned property and holding company which was launched in 2013 and established its Cyprus operation in 2022. The company’s investment in Larnaca was highlighted at the 14th International Investment Awards, organised by Invest Cyprus and hosted by GOLD magazine, where Premium Access Cyprus received recognition.
What the scheme comprises
While full planning and design specifics were not outlined in detail in the interview with GOLD magazine, the Palm Beach Resort has been described as a comprehensive redevelopment of one of Cyprus’s prominent waterfront locations. The stated aim is to create a destination that merges:
- Luxury hospitality — hotel accommodation and related guest services;
- Premium residences — private homes integrated into the resort setting;
- Lifestyle facilities — leisure, dining and community amenities designed to serve residents and visitors.
Company officials describe the scheme as intended to deliver long‑term economic and social benefits for Larnaca and for Cyprus as a whole. They say the development is a strategic addition to the island’s tourism offering and reflects a wider ambition to create mixed‑use destinations that combine living, leisure and hospitality.
Project background and local engagement
Premium Access’s journey in Cyprus has involved collaboration with local partners and institutions. The firm characterises the development process as demanding but rewarding, noting constructive engagement from experienced local professionals and authorities throughout. The Palm Beach Resort follows a company strategy of making targeted, value‑added international real estate investments.

The firm’s chief financial officer emphasised the scale of the undertaking and framed it as a demonstration of the group’s approach to developing integrated destinations. The company says the project aligns with efforts to reposition and enhance Cyprus’s tourism product by introducing projects that combine accommodation, private living and lifestyle services in a single complex.
Implications for Larnaca and travellers
Large mixed‑use schemes such as Palm Beach Resort typically promise multiple impacts: they can stimulate local employment during construction and operation, attract new visitor segments, and increase options for higher‑end short‑stay and long‑stay travellers. The developer has suggested the Larnaca project will have lasting benefits for the city and the wider island, though specifics on job numbers, unit counts or commercial partners were not provided in the interview.
For travellers and prospective buyers, the development signals growing investor interest in Cyprus’s coastal property market and in holiday destinations that combine convenience with lifestyle amenities. The scheduled 2027 opening provides a clear timeline for when the scheme is expected to start contributing to the local economy.
Premium Access Cyprus’s announcement adds to a number of international developments aiming to update coastal tourism infrastructure in the eastern Mediterranean. Observers will watch planning approvals, construction milestones and the appointment of hospitality operators to see how the project unfolds in practice.
