CoD Mediterranean: Something for everyone

The highly anticipated opening of City of Dreams Mediterranean (CoD) this summer in Limassol is expected to seriously upgrade the island’s tourism product.

Designed to host the most extravagant and exceptional gaming entertainment, the actual CoD casino will be packed with the world’s most exciting table games and slot machines. Guests will get to choose from private salons to a majestic open casino, a designated Poker area, great food and entertainment, all available 24/7.

But beyond the obvious entertainment we can expect to find at the integrated casino resort, it will also offer a number of other entertainment options.

From a lavish spa and fitness centre, to a waterpark and adventure world – and let us not forget its very own tennis academy and designer shopping centre – it really is expected to offer a special holiday experience fit for all.

Going by the City of Dreams Mediterranean website, here are a few of the relaxation as well as entertainment options future guests can expect.

Renu Spa & Fitness

Described as “an iconic haven beyond imagination with lavish pampering and laidback relaxation”, the resort’s Renu Spa & Fitness aims to redefine the epitome of tranquillity with a programme of treatments lifted from Melco’s Morpheus, which has previously been voted "Best Spa in the World". “Our services are focused on regeneration, offering a range of personalised treatments and wet facilities such as a sauna, steam room and a relaxation area,” it says. There will also be a professional hairdressing salon on site.

As for keeping fit, the Health Club will include state-of-the art facilities with the latest equipment “for you to keep those muscles working”. Motivating fitness instructors will be there to offer one-on-one sessions or group fitness programmes.

Adventure Park

CoD Mediterranean is also expected to boast one of the most exciting adventure parks on the island, making it an ideal holiday destination for families. With a zip line, an extreme ropes course, a family ropes course, mini golf, a climbing wall, a trampoline zone, and an innovative playground, “Our Adventure Park is full of, well… adventures. With features for children, teens and adults, the whole family is welcome.”

Entertainment

And the fun doesn’t end when the sun goes down. After a day of relaxation, guests will have a multitude of options to enjoy a good night out. According to the site, “Bartenders turn cocktail making into a show, and every night becomes a party. Popular guest DJs set the mood, live concerts, weekend exclusive parties all night or…. all day long. Legendary acts from all around the globe, lavish award shows to pulsating happenings, seducing you to have the time of your life. Magic awaits”.

Marcos Baghdatis Tennis Academy

Marcos Baghdatis Tennis Academy consists of 12 state-of-the-art tennis courts to learn, practice and compete. A professional-sized centre court, perfectly suited for international tournaments and sporting events, aims to attract fans of the sport from all around the globe.

“And as you might have guessed, yes, Mr. Marcos Baghdatis as the Manager of the Tennis Academy will be teaching and coaching and will also be available for consultation and advice, while supervising the scheduling and coaching programme and developing specialised tennis programmes,” according to the company’s website. Alongside him will be tennis professional Ms. Karolina Baghdatis, formerly featured in the top 20 of the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) rankings, in the roles of teacher and coach.

The academy will boast Tennis Courts at ATP specification (Hard Courts), a Centre Court catering up to 2,000 spectators while The Club House will feature a cafeteria, restaurant, gym, locker rooms, physio room and pro shop.

Aqua World

Perhaps one of the most exciting features for the resort’s little visitors, its Aqua World waterpark promises the most amazing pool complex, with water slides and crazy water fountains.

Kid's City

And the fun doesn’t end there for the kids, who will have their very own club. “Kid’s City features fun games, educational and stimulating activities for your children by our professional team, while you take a well-deserved break.”

Outdoor and Indoor Pools

Boasting the island’s largest pool complex, the CoD Mediterranean’s outdoor and indoor pools will offer so many options, whether one is going for a quiet morning lap or choosing to enjoy a pool day with their family, the company says it has “designed the perfect swimming destination for everyone”. For those wishing for some more quiet moments, “relax in one of our secluded private cabanas or go for our gorgeous pool bar for refreshing selections to quench your thirst.”

Waverider

For the thrill seekers and surf lovers, the Waverider pool is sure to keep them entertained. “Aqua adrenaline-pumping activities, where surfing has never been bolder, for you to prove your strength and balance. Will the waves beat you to it? Splash into action and enjoy bodyboarding and the most out-of-this-world surfing.” The Waverider is designed for kids too.

Designer Shopping

Finally, fashion lovers will not be disappointed with the designer shopping experience the resort will have to offer. “Avenue Montagne meets via Monte Napoleone, meets Ginza. Our experts have curated a selection of the best fashion pieces the world has to offer.” On offer, elegant women’s and men’s fashion and accessories, high-end timepieces and jewellery, as well as unique souvenirs.
