A jewel of a hotel in a vineyard.. Gillham Vineyard Hotel. It's one of those places when you just know...you know!
From the moment of arrival and the fountain before the entrance, opening the double doors to the lobby and the smiling reception staff. I knew!
On one level, I hate writing about places like this...because then it becomes soooo popular...but a jewel can't be hidden behind a bush. And Gillham Vineyard Hotel is certainly a jewel.
Super well-situated - obviously in a vineyard, there is so much space to walk around in and everywhere is green and gorgeous. Lots of space and views to the se and the hills.
Staff are super-friendly, personable and there's nothing too much trouble - you just want to pack them in your suitcase and bring them home.
The pool is an oasis of delight; with these four poster beds to hang out in and a mountain backdrop behind. The water is always the right temperature and not chlorinated.
The food is A-MAZING... they have a great chef who creates delicate but tasty dishes with quality ingredients...breakfast is a delight and the coffee is super. Sitting outside on the terrace overlooking the pool and the surrounding hills...it's very beautiful there.
The rooms are really big and airy. The pillows are really great as is the mattress.
We will be back!. .

Fabulous couples retreat. On our last day here but this place is fabulous. The restaurant is excellent. The Rose rooms are a great blend of size, amenities and views. We were in Rose 18 and the view every morning is a delight. The spa is great. We found sitting down there during the morning was a great way to find some shade and we have had the plunge pool to ourselves everyday. A fabulous place to stay. .

Beautiful vineyard hotel in Northern Cyprus . We had a fabulous couple of days at the vineyard. The rooms are lovely, particularly the newer rose rooms. The food is delicious, in both restaurants and we can recommend dining in both if you can. Eric gave us a very informative and fun wine tasting. But the very best thing about the place is the service. Truly exemplary from everyone - a real 5 star experience. So thanks to the staff for making our stay so special!. .

An Outstanding Stay for our Mind 'N' Soul Retreat!. I have been to this beautiful hotel, Gillham Vineyard, on many occasions with family and friends for both lunch and dinner. In fact, it is a must whenever we are on holiday in North Cyprus from the UK.
However my trip this May 2025 was an entirely different reason. I hosted a wellness retreat for 5 nights, bringing my guests from the UK.
It was an amazing retreat and the hotel, managers and team did not disappoint. The service, accommodation, food, hotel and hospitality were incredibly outstanding.
The restaurant staff, hotel managers, reception and hospitality team have been familiar faces to me over the last few years. I have never seen them working without a smile and have always been willing to do as much as possible for their guests. The team of this hotel certainly contributed to the memorable experience.
I hope to be returning for my next retreat and guests.. .

A beautful gem in the North Cyprus mountains. A dreamy location in the North Cyprus mountains. The hotel reminds me a lot about Tuscany, so if you like Italy, you will love this hotel. Excellent food, wine, atmosphere, and service. I loved my suite and the big terrace, and will definitely come back.. .

A memorable stay. We spent an amazing week at Gillham Vineyard and Hotel.
The super warm welcome from the reception team and their helpful, friendly manner throughout our stay will be remembered as a ‘first class’ example of hospitality.
This was also demonstrated by the restaurant staff, and the food was delicious.
Excellent spa facilities and stunning setting all round. When can we go back? ☺️ 🙌🏼 🎶. .

We loved every moment!. We absolutely loved every moment of our stay here, from the stunning views, the immaculate, comfortable rooms and the warm, delectable food.
Our wine tasting guide Goli, was so professional and very informative. Her expertise gave us an insight into using different senses to appreciate wines and their unique qualities. This was a enriching experience !
The staff that welcomed us and looked after us during the evening meal were Mark, Francis, Valentino and James who, with their smiles, friendliness and professionalism really made our weekend more enjoyable and satisfying.
Thanks to Tia and Nana for decorating our room and making it pretty for us.
This was an unforgettable experience for us and we would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Cyprus.. .

Delighted to come back again and again. My wife and I travel often globally for pleasure and business.
We recently returned to Gilham Vineyards for our for our 10th stay in the past two years.
We brought friends along to celebrate our 30th anniversary and introduce them to this delightful hotel and the lovely staff there.
Since the property is recently under new management, we have been sensitive to any changes in quality or service.
I’am happy to say that the experience we have loved in the past from our previous stays at Gilham continues to be among the best in our many decades of travel around the world.
The new management along with Semi (who continues from previous management) demonstrates an obviously proactive commitment to maintaining and even improving on all world class aspects of our visits.
The staff; from Nana, Tia, Sophia and Daniel at the front desk, to the servers in the restaurants ( Francis, James, Mark, Pedro and Valentino led by Jessica and the head chef Aziz ) through Goli in the winery to the housekeepers have such personable, professional and friendly “can do” attitudes that we depend on them with total confidence to continue to make our visits so memorable.
The property location and layout add to the feeling of escape and romance at Gilham.. .

Amazing hotel with an incredible team!. Absolutely top notch experience! To start with, the setting amidst a beautiful vineyard, with the sea within visible behind, is breathtaking. The grounds are beautiful, and are in immaculate condition. We had the “rose suite”, which had high, vaulted ceilings, beautiful furnishing, and modern, spotlessly clean bathroom. Little details enhance the already beautiful surroundings— like the “Gillham” branded towels and blanket.
The service is what makes this beautiful place even more special. Even before arrival, the team was so responsive in answering questions and arranging transportation, wine tastings, and spa bookings. On arrival, we were greeting with such warmth and smiles. Every single team member— from the front desk, spa, restaurant, winery, and management— they all treated us like long time friends & family. Truly a 5 Star, personalized touch!
I can’t say enough great things. A very, very special place!!!. .
