SECRET VALLEY GOLF CLUB, designed by Iacovos Iacovou, started operation in September 1996. 

Located 18 km east of Paphos and 49 km from Limassol, near “Petra tou Romiou” the legendary birthplace of Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love. 

It lies in a scenic valley with grand trees adding maturity to the fairly new course. The strikingly colourful natural rock formations offer panoramic views to the golfer.  It plays to a par 71 and measures 5904 metres. 

Secret Valley promises players both the beauty of nature and the pleasure of golf. 

The views of the surroundings combined with the design efforts will create a truly unique and memorable golfing experience “ , says Mr Stelios Patsalides, General Manager, who also manages the Tsada Golf Club under the umbrella of Cyprus Golf Resorts. 

The front nine offer four nice holes for warming up, two birdie opportunities and an easy dog leg (if you know how!).  The first and third holes - par 4’s 375 and 335 metres respectively - feature sand traps halfway between the tee and the green.  A good drive or a really bad one will keep a player out of trouble.  The second hole is a straight, comfortable par three. Number 4 at 120 metres has birdie written all over it, with a tricky bunker at the front edge of the green which requires accuracy. 

The back nine, plays longer than the first nine and the challenge starts immediately - no warm-up holes on this side.  A long par 5, 475 metres with sand traps in the middle makes the tenth hole demanding.  Hole 13 is a big hitter’s nightmare - a short 145metres with water in the back (winter only).  Overshoot the green and you are out of bounds:  Underplay it from the tee and bear the embarrassment of not making the green in one.  The eighteenth par 5, 515 metres finishes at the clubhouse with what appears a selection of artificial lakes on the back side of the green. 

Practice facilities include putting greens, chipping areas, fairway bunkers and a large driving range.  Tuition can be tailored to suit individual requirements and teaching can be on an individual or group basis. 

The clubhouse at Secret Valley renovated in 2006, has an interior of wood and natural stone. The facilities including a fully stocked Pro-shop, locker rooms, bar and restaurant with verandas overlooking the artificial lakes and the golf course.   

CYPRUS is the new jewel in the crown for golfers seeking golfing breaks in the warmth of the eastern Mediterranean.  It offers golfers challenging world class championship courses, top quality hotels, safety, warm hospitality and almost year round sunshine.
