Situated in the enchanting summer yacht charter destination – the Eastern Mediterranean, Karpaz Gate Marina is proud to announce the exclusive summer packages for yacht owners and crew. This summer, they can take advantage of savings on top-class sport and spa facilities as well as luxury hotel rooms at the prominent Korineum Golf & Beach Resort. Available between May and September 2014, the exclusive offer follows this year’s collaboration between two of Northern Cyprus’s leading and most prestigious luxury tourist destinations in their sectors.
The new range of summer season packages allows boat owners visiting the 5 Gold Anchor-rated Karpaz Gate Marina to enjoy discounted rates for the Korineum Resort’s accommodation and restaurant, as well as the use of the outstanding facilities, including the international standard golf course and four clay tennis courts, and the Spa and Wellness Centre, with international massage menu, sauna and Spa Pool.
Featuring the first 18-hole golf course in Northern Cyprus, the Korineum Golf & Beach Resort boasts views of the Mediterranean Sea on one side and the famous Five Finger Mountain range on the other. It is a short, one-hour drive from Karpaz Gate Marina, approximately 70km west along the northern coast of the Karpaz Peninsula.
Karpaz Gate Marina Harbour Master Deniz Akaltan said: “We are dedicated to catering for and entertaining our clients here at the marina, while also helping to introduce them to everything on offer in Northern Cyprus. Our long-term commitment is to provide events and activities for visitors to participate in and this collaboration with Korineum Resort provides more choice and another privilege for our clients to enjoy.
“We are open to new opportunities to collaborate with other companies and already offer discounts for our clients at Kaya Artemis Resort Hotel & Casino and Noah’s Ark Deluxe Hotel & Casino.”
Both Karpaz Gate Marina and Korineum Golf & Beach Resort represent historically significant and important investments in Northern Cyprus, with both venues introducing new types of tourism to the TRNC, thus enlarging the offering to visitors to the region. As the first modern marina in Northern Cyprus, luxurious 300-berth Karpaz Gate Marina is an official port of entry and has opened up a rich cruising ground for the first time. Meanwhile, the Korineum Resort is leading the way in golfing tourism on the island.
Meryem Çerkez Gürtunç, Resort Coordinator, Korineum Golf & Beach Resort, said: “We are delighted to be able to offer these significant savings at our resort for Karpaz Gate Marina clients and to provide some possibilities in North Cyprus which they might not otherwise have discovered.
“This collaboration with Karpaz Gate Marina will really work well to promote North Cyprus as a destination. It is undoubtedly the Mediterranean’s untouched and undiscovered gem. As well as the natural beauty and hospitable people, this part of the island features great cuisine, historical ruins and buildings, plus plenty of activities including yachting, golfing, scuba diving, relaxation breaks and historical sight-seeing breaks.
“The quality of the service and experience at the two destinations is very similar and will appeal to similar client groups so we are confident our facilities will be very popular with the Karpaz Gate Marina clients.”
Situated on the coast at the foot of The Five Finger Mountain in Esentepe, Korineum Golf & Beach Resort has stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea and the mountain range and is surrounded by Umbrella Pines and olive trees. It is also just 5 miles away from turtle preservation beach Alagadi.
