Spacious furnished 2-bedroom apartment in the Sea Terra Marina resort in Tatlısu with sea views, a large balcony, and a roof terrace.

Base rent: £500 / month (approx. $663) • Total area: 115 m² (75 m² living area + large balcony and spacious roof terrace) • Model budget including approximate utilities and energy: approx. $875–$1,025 / month

Imagine that the sea is not a destination you only visit for one or two weeks a year. Imagine it is the magnificent environment for your everyday life. In the morning, you prepare a rich Cypriot breakfast with fragrant tea in a fully equipped kitchen, then walk out onto a spacious balcony and look across the palm trees and the resort pool directly at the open sea, where a spectacular sun is just rising. In the evening, you end the day with friends on your own roof terrace or in the air-conditioned fitness center, located just a few steps from your front door.

This is exactly the setting offered by this 2-bedroom property with a total usable area of 115 m² (75 m² living area + large balcony and spacious roof terrace, 1 bathroom, 2nd floor) in the tranquil coastal resort of Sea Terra Marina on the northern coast of Cyprus. The complex includes two large swimming pools, a children’s pool, and a fully equipped fitness center. The apartment is available for long-term rent with a minimum duration of one year.

For the pure rent of approximately $663, you get 115 m² of total space, two bedrooms, sea views, a balcony, and your own roof terrace; with approximate operational costs, we reach around $875–$1,025 per month.

💷 Fair Numbers: How much will living approximately cost you?

At OPUS Prosperity, we know that it is always necessary to add real operational costs to the base rent. Only then can you determine if foreign living makes long-term financial sense for you. For the calculation, we use a model of approximate operational costs based on currently available public data.

Base rent: £500 / month ≈ $663

As an approximate benchmark for resort maintenance (maintenance fee), we can use the currently published fee of £80 per month for another comparable offer in the same complex. For the Tatlısu area, the approximate range for utilities and services is as follows: £40–120 for electricity, £15–30 for water, and £25–45 for the Internet per month.

Model Operational Costs for Your Apartment in Tatlısu

Maintenance (resort management)	approx. £80 ≈ $106
Electricity	£40–120 ≈ $53–$159
Water	£15–30 ≈ $20–$40

🌍 How Does Cyprus Stand in an International Comparison?

In a specific comparison with a current offer of a standard 75m² apartment in the center of a major Central European city (like Ostrava, CZ), the approximate monthly budget for Tatlısu is in a similar range. In that specific current comparison, a 75m² city apartment has a pure rent of $703, and the listed advanced payments for utilities are an additional $267, making a total of $970 per month.

The fundamental difference, however, is in the character and size of the housing: in Tatlısu, you get 115 m² of total space in a seafront residential complex with sea views, a balcony, a roof terrace, pools, and fitness for comparable money.

To provide you with wider context, we have prepared a comparison with selected current offers in other coastal and European locations, including popular Middle Eastern destinations. Please note that while base rents are based on specific advertisements, amounts for energy and fees abroad are only approximate estimates serving for a general overview – they are not guaranteed data.

This material is informative and marketing-oriented. It is based on a specific lease offer from our local partners and publicly available reference data on prices as of 2026. The listed total area of 115 m² corresponds to data from our local partner and includes both the living part and external terraces and balcony. The listed model fee structures in the international table are strictly approximate estimates derived from public databases and do not serve as a guarantee of actual costs. The model calculation for Cyprus (£660–775) serves for an approximate idea of the total monthly budget. The maintenance fee of £80 is taken as an approximate benchmark from the current offer of another property in the same complex, Sea Terra Marina; the specific allocation of this and other cost items between the landlord and tenant is governed by the specific lease agreement. Electricity consumption can vary significantly, particularly based on the use of air conditioning. Some Cypriot apartments use propane-butane for cooking (regulated price of a 10kg bottle in 2026 is approx. 800 TL), which is not comprehensively included in the budget. This text does not replace financial or legal advice. All currency conversions within this article are estimates based on reference exchange rates from the European Central Bank (ECB) as of September 25, 2026, and applicable market rate derived from data compiled around that date.
