Androlykou (,) is a Turkish Cypriot village in the Paphos District of Cyprus, located 5 km southwest of Polis Chrysochous.

It is currently mostly empty, but before invasion it had a population of 498. At the first British census in 1881 it had a population of 255.

Apart from one Turkish Cypriot married to a Greek Cypriot woman, the whole village was evacuated. They were mainly resettled in Myrtou.
