If you have a map, you are the king on the Cyprus roads. If you hire a car you can explore and stay at a cheap accommodation and you will have more chance to move with the people of Cyprus and know more about their culture and tradition.

Well..If you are back from Cyprus to your home country you will have to face such questions from everyone of your relative. I just tell them while landed in Larnaca or Paphos just hire a professional car rental Cyprus company and visit the places you want.
