Sunny skies and warm weather are what summer dreams are made of, especially when you’re staying in your private villa in Cyprus. But with all that sunshine comes the need for a little extra care. At Imagine Villa Rentals, we want your holiday to be all about enjoyment and that includes staying cool, comfortable, and safe under the sun. Here’s how to make the most of your summer villa stay without the burn.
1. Shade is your friend
Cyprus summers can get hot. Really hot. That’s why it’s worth choosing a villa with shaded outdoor spaces. Think of covered terraces, pergolas, or umbrellas by the pool. It’s the perfect way to enjoy the outdoors while giving your skin a break from direct sun.
2. Make SPF your daily ritual
Whether you’re heading to the beach or just lounging on a sunbed, sunscreen is a must. Go for broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher, and don’t forget to reapply throughout the day, especially after swimming. Bonus tip: keep a bottle near the villa entrance so it’s always top of mind before you head out.

3. Stay Hydrated
It’s easy to lose track of time (and hydration) when you’re poolside with a book or out exploring. Ensure your villa is always stocked with cool, fresh water. Our fully equipped kitchens make it simple to keep bottles in the fridge or opt for fruit-infused jugs that add a tasty twist.
4. Dress smart for the heat
Linen shirts, cotton dresses, wide-brimmed hats—these aren’t just fashion choices, they’re sun protection too. Lightweight, breathable fabrics help your body stay cool while shielding your skin from harsh rays. Don’t forget your sunglasses, they’re a summer essential.

5. Take advantage of cooler hours
Plan beach trips and sightseeing adventures for early mornings or late afternoons when the sun is less intense. Your villa is the perfect midday retreat: cool, shaded, and just right for a refreshing nap or dip in the pool.
6. Keep little ones covered
Travelling with kids? Make sure they’ve got extra protection. Long-sleeved swimwear, sun hats, and waterproof sunscreen will help keep them safe while they splash and play. When it’s time to cool down, indoor games or a shady lunch on the terrace are ideal.
7. Cool touches that make a difference
All of our villas come with air-conditioned bedrooms to keep you comfortable day and night. With extras like outdoor showers, shaded garden corners, and breezy terraces, you’ll always have the perfect spot to relax and cool off, no matter how high the temperature climbs.
