The Columbia Beachotel on the panoramic Bay of Pissouri in the south west coast of Cyprus has announced that guests of the hotel will receive an exclusive package of benefits and complimentary activities as part of their winter holiday this year.

Culture, new skills, fitness, relaxation and rejuvenation and half board plus are all on offer for bookings from mid November.

People looking for an escape from the UK's winter blues will not only benefit from Cyprus's mild winter climate but also get much more if they choose to stay at this reputable and stylish four star hotel. Starting from 21st November through to the end of February guests will get the opportunity to learn a new skill, improve their fitness, relax and rejuvenate in the Columbia Spa at a discount and see some local Cypriot culture.

Mr Stelios Kizis, General Manager of Columbia Hotels & Resorts in Cyprus, explains more about this unique offer at the Columbia Beachotel: "The Beachotel is famous for its stunning views across Pissouri Bay and the 2km Blue Flag beach on our doorstep and many of our guests return year after year for just these reasons. We know moreover, that our guests are active interesting people who want to make the most of what Cyprus has to offer while on holiday. We are making this easy this winter by including activities such as a cultural visit to a nearby typical traditional village, a cooking class hosted by our team of renowned chefs, a Greek dancing lesson and opportunity to learn a little of the Greek language with a tutor and even yoga classes. Each day there will be a different activity over the period of a week. And all are free."

This winter season at the Columbia Beachotel all guests will receive an upgrade from bed and breakfast terms to half board. During the promotional period there are additional benefits; as part of the complimentary dinner guests will also receive a complimentary glass of local wine or one local beer or one soft drink per person, plus a bottle of water during the meal.

Tea, coffee and pastries will be served in the afternoon and each room will be provided with a complimentary fruit basket upon guests' arrival.

These extra benefits are available for the duration of the promotional period based on a minimum booking of five nights.

The daily activities in the winter special period will include:

The special winter offer also gives guests 30% discount on all treatments in the award-winning Columbia Spa. The Columbia Spa exclusively features Molton Brown spa products in Cyprus and also offers the marine-based range Phytomer. In May 2009 the glamorous paraben-free anti-ageing spa and beauty range Daniele de Winter was launched here, again exclusively on the island.

This is an elegant high spec property with 116 rooms and suites most of which feature panoramic views out to sea. There are four Cape suites and six Bay suites with these spectacular vistas. The emphasis is on quality furnishings throughout and the use of colours to reflect the dramatic cliffs and Mediterranean Sea that frame this unspoiled part of the island.
