Ahead of its official opening on 10 July 2023, City of Dreams Mediterranean has already started gaining international recognition. The resort was recently honoured by The European Property Awards 2023 for its remarkable feats in three categories, including Best Hotel Architecture Europe, Best Sustainable Commercial Development Europe, and Best New Hotel Construction & Design Cyprus.
The integrated resort, which is set to transform the face of Cyprus’ tourism sector by attracting thousands of extra tourists every year, is primed to establish the island as a year-round tourist destination.
Commenting on the recognition, Grant Johnson, General Manager of City of Dreams Mediterranean, expressed delight. “These accolades from The European Property Awards 2023 are an honour for us, especially as we are recognised by industry design professionals. As Melco Resorts & Entertainment’s first significant European venture, City of Dreams Mediterranean brings our award-winning standards of entertainment, leisure, and innovation to Cyprus’ luxury hotel landscape. We eagerly anticipate officially welcoming guests to our contemporary, immersive resort.”

It boasts a fourteen-storey luxury hotel with 500 rooms and suites, over 8,000sqm of MICE space, an outdoor amphitheatre, a family adventure park, and an array of fine dining outlets and luxury retail stores.
