Try Cyprus Air for the flight and Bookcyprus.com for the hotel. We had arranged a nice schedule but, having read over a dozen travel reviews, we decided today that August in Cyprus would be too hot (low 40's). Also its very dry and arid. We need some greenery.

We go to cyprus every year and although it is hot in August its not unbearably hot we found it to be fine no problems walking around during the day etc, you will have a lovely time we love the island.

Re: Travel Agents - Package Tours
We were quoted AED1,775 each inc.taxes for the flights from Cyprus Air and found a cheap aparthotel for Eur25 per room per night on Bookcyprus.com. You can also get the room rates (ex-flights) on Thomsons website. My friend who lives there prefers Paphos to Agia Napa, which would necessitate a fairly long drive. They do transfers but car hire seems dirt cheap over there.

Jazeera Airways fly to Larnaca for less than Dh1000.
