I hope I'm not comparing apples and oranges, But from my inquiries it seems they're quite similar, There's also Quite limited info on both of them here.
Planning a 3 day trip to one of them shortly while being in Europe anyway, can anyone share recommendations in which of the 2, and which island is best ?
Many thanx
I have been to both many times. Greece is huge, with many different beautiful islands and a gigantic mainland; Cyprus is much smaller.
I find Greece to be more 'classy', raw, naturally beautiful. Cyprus has nice beaches but I find the cities to be on the dirty side; Paphos reminds me of Eilat to some extent.
That being said it really depends what you are looking for... The few times I have been in Cyprus were usually a 2-3 days stopover on my way to Greece, when last minute direct flights to Greece used to be ridiculously expensive.
Kosher wise, Chabad has a great restaurant in Athens, which also delivers all over greece including the islands, provided you gave them a week notice - i've used it countless times and it's a great option. There is also Chabad in Cyprus, i've been to the restaurant in Paphos several times it was great as well, not sure they do deliveries but I can give you the # of the Rav.
