Most odd as pretty much everywhere I ever go in CY has free WiFi, they even print the code/key on the menus in many instances. Anyway, just spoke to my brother (who lives in Larnaca) and he suggests MTN PAYG, You can't get a PAYG sim with unlimited data.
Hope that helps.
Your best bet would be to get a pay as you go sim. MTN is one of the main companies on the island and they offer good packages. Also you can pick up one of their cards at any periptero (newsagents /kiosk). I think you just send an sms to activate the data service if you need Internet.

Not been back to Southern Cyprus for a few years so out of touch with mobile pricing there. I'm looking for a good deal for a local SIM Card, main use will be for Data. Hotel want silly money for Wi-Fi so looking for cheap mobile alternative.
Thanks.
Much better than the other MTN deal. I bought one 10 euro package, 200 Mb data and it was gone in a couple of days. Didn't bother again until I needed to make a few local calls. Bloody rip off! Thanks for the info about the latest deal, if I go back next year I'll see if it is still available.Had an update from my brother in Larnaca
"The other day you were asking about mobile data in south CY for someone on holiday. It turns out there is a much better option than just going for a regular PAYG sim and adding data to it - which was around €10 for 200-250MB.
MTN have a "Holiday Internet" SIM which gives 2GB for €20 valid for 15 days:

Much better value and a decent amount of data. No voice or SMS though."
