FAMILY ADVENTURERS, THIS ONE’S FOR YOU! Where world-class schooling meets Mediterranean living

Relocating to Cyprus with family successfully often comes down to creating a sense of home as quickly as possible. A welcoming community, access to good schools, and a safe, family-friendly environment all help the transition feel natural. Finding that balance means you can embrace the adventure while giving your children a stable and happy start.

That is where the right location makes all the difference.

If you are dreaming of Cyprus, there is a place where family life flows easily, the school run takes minutes, and sunshine fills every corner. Welcome to Mesa Chorio.

A school families love

When parents move abroad, education is often the top priority. You want your children to feel settled, supported and inspired, and that is exactly what The International School of Paphos (ISOP) offers.

Established in 1987, ISOP has spent more than three decades building a reputation as one of Cyprus’ most respected private schools. It provides:

  • Education from Kindergarten to A Levels (ages 2½ to 18)
  • The English National Curriculum, ideal for international families
  • Co-educational and boarding options
  • A close-knit community of over 1,000 students

ISOP is more than a school. It is a place where global friendships form and young minds flourish. Parents can relax knowing their children are receiving a first-class education, and with a home nearby, mornings are calm, not rushed.

A lifestyle that feels like home when relocating to Cyprus with family

Picture the start of your day. Blue skies overhead, sunshine pouring through the windows, and the gentle hum of village life outside. You take a short walk to school, wave the children off, then stop for a morning coffee overlooking the Mediterranean.

By afternoon, they are swimming, playing outdoors or joining after-school clubs, while you unwind by your own private pool.

This is not a holiday. It is home.

Living close to an international school does more than simplify daily routines. It creates a natural community where families connect easily through school events, weekend gatherings and shared island adventures.

The perfect family villa in Mesa Chorio

Just 500 metres from ISOP stands a beautifully designed three-bedroom villa, built for modern Mediterranean living.

This newly completed property blends comfort, space and style, featuring:

  • Bright open-plan living areas filled with natural light
  • A private swimming pool surrounded by landscaped gardens
  • A panoramic roof terrace perfect for family dinners under the stars
  • Driveway parking behind electric gates for added privacy
  • Full title deeds and A+ energy efficiency

Every detail has been considered. Whether you are relocating permanently or spending part of the year in Cyprus, this is a home where you can simply unpack, settle in and start living your new life right away.

Mesa Chorio – village charm with modern convenience

Mesa Chorio sits just outside Paphos, combining the warmth of traditional Cypriot life with modern amenities. Local shops, cafés and tavernas are moments away, while the beaches, restaurants and cultural landmarks of Paphos are within easy reach.

The village is peaceful yet connected. It is the kind of place where children play outdoors, neighbours greet one another and every evening ends with a sunset that stops you in your tracks.

It is a hidden gem that feels both timeless and welcoming, the sort of place where families quickly feel they belong.

Moving made simple

At MyElysium, we know that relocating abroad is more than just finding a house. It is about building a life that feels balanced, safe and inspiring.

That is why we help families discover homes that match their lifestyle, not just their wish list. From sourcing move-in ready properties to providing trusted local guidance, we make the process smooth and stress-free.

While we handle the details, you can focus on creating new memories in the sunshine. Whether you are looking for a permanent base, a family holiday home or a new beginning, Mesa Chorio is a wonderful place to start.

Your next chapter starts here

Relocating to Cyprus as a family is about more than moving to a new country. It is about embracing a new rhythm of life, where school runs are short, friendships are global and every day ends under a golden sky.

If that sounds like the kind of future you are ready to explore, this villa near the International School of Paphos could be the perfect fit.

Finance professionals: why you should be considering Cyprus residency for your clients

cyprus residency

More clients are thinking globally, whether for lifestyle, tax planning, or long-term security, and they are turning to their advisers for guidance. As demand grows, Cyprus residency for clients of finance professionals is becoming an increasingly relevant topic, offering strategic benefits for both clients and their advisers.

If you’re a wealth manager, accountant, solicitor, mortgage broker or financial adviser, you might already be exploring how to support clients with cross-border ambitions. As demand grows for second residency, flexible tax planning, and future-proof strategies, Cyprus is becoming a practical and strategic choice.

At MyElysium, we specialise in helping clients secure property-led residency and relocation opportunities in Cyprus. We work with fully regulated professionals on the ground. This includes legal and tax advisers, developers, and relocation experts. Together, we deliver a joined-up, compliant, and efficient process from start to finish.

Cyprus residency through EU property investment

Cyprus offers one of the most accessible EU residency schemes still available post-Brexit. This makes it a strong consideration when discussing Cyprus residency for finance professionals and their clients. In fact, this scheme is one of the clearest and most efficient options available.

With a qualifying property investment from €300,000, your clients can secure permanent residency for themselves and their family. There is no need to relocate or rent out the property. The process is clear and quick. Clients typically complete applications within a few months.

Flexible tax residency via the 60-day rule

In addition, the 60-day tax residency rule makes Cyprus a compelling choice for mobile individuals. It allows non-residents to gain tax residency by spending just 60 days a year in Cyprus, provided other conditions are met. For those who travel frequently or split time between countries, it offers a flexible framework that opens the door to favourable tax treatment.

Non-domicile tax regime with long-term benefits

Moreover, the country appeals to investors and entrepreneurs through its favourable tax rules. Cyprus continues to attract high-net-worth individuals with its generous non-dom tax regime. For example, new tax residents who qualify as non-domiciled can enjoy exemption from dividend and interest income tax for up to 17 years. This makes Cyprus particularly appealing for entrepreneurs, investors and individuals focused on preserving wealth across generations.

Attractive pension options and tax advantages

Furthermore, Cyprus offers favourable pension schemes with tax incentives that appeal to retirees and those planning for retirement. Pension income can benefit from a low flat tax rate or full exemption depending on the source and amount. This flexibility supports long-term retirement planning and wealth preservation for clients seeking to optimise their pensions internationally.

Moving a business abroad to Cyprus

Therefore, for clients considering relocating a business, Cyprus offers significant advantages. The country has a competitive corporate tax rate and a business-friendly regulatory environment. It also benefits from a network of double taxation treaties that can reduce tax burdens on international operations. Cyprus provides a stable EU base with access to global markets, making it an attractive destination for companies seeking growth, cost efficiency and strategic positioning.

An English-speaking EU base with long-term stability

Cyprus is an EU member with a British-style legal system and a strong professional services sector. English is widely spoken, and there is a well-established expat community. For clients who value lifestyle, security, and access to high-quality healthcare and education, Cyprus offers a seamless balance of personal and professional appeal.

We work with regulated professionals in Cyprus

At MyElysium, we assist advisers who want to explore Cyprus as a viable option for their clients. Whether it is for tax residency, purchasing a home or relocating a business, we provide expert local support and access to a network of legal, tax and property professionals.

Our services are tailored to make the process smooth, transparent and compliant at every stage. If you are advising clients on long-term lifestyle or financial planning, now is the time to consider Cyprus residency for finance professionals as part of a well-rounded advisory approach.

NEWS: Cyprus nears Schengen membership – a game changer for buyers and investors

On 9th May, President Nikos Christodoulides confirmed that Cyprus is on track to meet all technical and legislative requirements by the end of 2025, with full Schengen membership expected in 2026. The announcement, made during Europe Day celebrations in Nicosia alongside European Parliament President Roberta Metsola, highlighted Cyprus’s strengthening ties with the European Union.

President Metsola offered her full support, praising the country’s leadership and reaffirming the European Parliament’s commitment to Cyprus’s ambitions within the EU, as well as to a lasting resolution of the Cyprus issue under UN guidance.

Why this matters for international buyers

For MyElysium clients – whether you are an international investor, a Cyprus Permanent Residency holder, or exploring second home opportunities – this development strengthens Cyprus’s position as one of the most attractive and strategic destinations in Europe.

Once Cyprus joins the Schengen Zone, permanent residents and property investors will benefit from:

  • Visa-free travel across 27 EU countries, making mobility across Europe much easier
  • Greater investment security in a stable and EU-aligned jurisdiction
  • Improved access to Europe’s business, education, and lifestyle opportunities

This progress further enhances Cyprus’s appeal as a safe, well-connected destination for real estate investment, holiday homes, or relocation – particularly for non-EU citizens seeking long-term value and Mediterranean living.

Investing in Cyprus, Greece, or the Greek Islands?

At MyElysium, we specialise in carefully selected property in Cyprus, mainland Greece, and the Greek Islands. Whether you are interested in modern apartments in Nicosia, beachfront villas in Paphos, or a private island retreat, our team is here to help you find your ideal property and guide you through every step of the process.
