Summary
- Harry Connick Jr.'s rom-com, Find Me Falling, filmed in Pegeia, Cyprus, known for its stunning coastal views and vacation rentals.

- Despite mixed reviews, Find Me Falling offers gorgeous vistas and authentic locations, drawing viewers into John's unexpected new reality.
Packed with incredible scenery and jaw-dropping vistas, Harry Connick Jr.'s Netflix rom-com has viewers wondering where, exactly, Find Me Falling was filmed. Directed by Stelana Kliris, the romantic comedy centers on Connick Jr.'s John Allman, an American rock star who decides to go on hiatus after his latest album bombs with fans. Instead of just taking a break from the limelight at home, John spontaneously purchases a remote house on a Cypriot cliff. In a dark turn, John realizes that the house was such a steal because it's located near a so-called "suicide hotspot."
John's getaway is not only complicated by its proximity to the cliffs, but because of his old flame, Sia (Agni Scott), who's also a local musician. Although John and Sia both wanted a life together, she was unnerved by his cadre of adoring fans in the States, resulting in their years-long split. Despite Find Me Falling's mixed reviews for its clunky dialogue and predictable story, Netflix's spin on a Hallmark movie does boast gorgeous vistas. Needless to say, Find Me Falling's on-location filming scores some major points — and might prompt viewers to search for flights to Cyprus.
Find Me Falling Filmed On Location In Pegeia, Cyprus
The Remote Cliff House Is Located In The Coastal Hills Near Coral Bay
Situated in the western part of the island of Cyprus is the Paphos District, a coastal locale that's marked by beautiful gulfs, coves, and beaches. Find Me Falling's production headed to the district's town of Pegeia (also spelled Peyia) for its steep slopes and location near the Coral Bay. Pegeia is considered a holiday hotspot, with many of the homes used as dedicated vacation rentals. Thanks to its location on the coastal hillside, the town of Pegeia offers sweeping views of the bay, which makes both a perfect getaway with filming locations to rival rom-coms like Anyone But You.
John finds himself drawn in to Sia's life in the Cypriot town.
It makes total sense that Connick Jr.'s fish-out-of-water musician would land in a tourist-heavy town like Pegeia. While it certainly has year-round residents, the coastal getaway is a mainstay for vacationers who venture to Cyprus year after year. Put simply, it's the kind of place a visitor could see themselves settling in. That's certainly part of this Netflix rom-com's formula, as John finds himself drawn in to Sia's life in the Cypriot town. The scenes at John's cliff-side home were all filmed in this stunning location, lending an authenticity to the movie.

2023 was a renaissance for the rom-com as filmmakers began to take the genre more seriously and include modern themes in the films.
Find Me Falling Used The Cypriot Capital As A Backdrop
While Find Me Falling's production leaned heavily into filming on-location in Pegeia, the movie also shot scenes in Nicosia, the capital of Cyprus. The island nation's largest city, Nicosia, is a segregated city, with its Greek and Turkish populations living in different areas. Continuously inhabited for nearly 5,000 years, Nicosia offers a stunning blend of old architectural wonders and modern city infrastructure, making it a prime filming location. The city's quaint streets crop up several times in Find Me Falling, even as stand-ins for Pegeia — the town Sia calls home.
Find Me Falling is streaming exclusively on Netflix.
