A beautiful villa in Northern Cyprus

Villa Lalai is a spacious house set in a large garden, planted out with figs and bougainvillea and has natural stone sculpture. It has a good sized swimming pool with Roman steps – the views from the private, secluded pool area are spectacular, looking up to the mountains of northern Cyprus. There are sunloungers with parasols, a BBQ and a garden dining table to seat eight. Close by are olive groves and the sea is about a 10 minute walk away. Once through the gates there is ample parking. At night the pool and garden lights give a magical atmosphere for your evenings sipping wine on the terrace. Newly furnished in a tasteful, modern style, the luxurious interior is light and spacious. A marble staircase sweeps upstairs to the airy bedrooms. Much care has been taken in the interior design and modern art adorns the walls. There is air conditioning in the lounge and bedrooms, plus standing fans. The lounge has patio doors leading onto terraces at the front and back of the house.

Further details for the villa in Kyrenia Region, Cyprus

We will happily book airport collection and car hire for you and our property manager lives close by for your assistance. Many activities can be enjoyed in the area, including scuba diving, sailing, snorkelling, walking, bird watching, horse riding, mountaineering and much more.

Lara beach is a 15 minutes drive West, with sunbeds, shades and a small café. Alagadi is an official Turtle Watch beach (10 minutes from villa). At certain times of the year you can watch the turtles lay their eggs in the soft sand or watch the young as they head for the open sea. Acapulco is a hotel complex (about 20 minutes away) with all facilities including an aqua park bars and restaurants. Travelling east you will find wonderful beaches where you will be totally alone, just get out of the car and swim

Bellapais Abbey is the most beautiful place – built in the 12th Century it commands a view of the whole northern coastline. At night the Abbey is floodlit and is magical, there are classical concerts there at times during the summer season. There is a choice of restaurants in the village, one, ‘The Kybele’ is set in the Abbey grounds, book a seat with a view and be swept away by the panorama. Bellapais is where Lawrence Durrell lived when he wrote ‘Bitter Lemons of Cyprus’. An excellent day trip would be to Famagusta (Gazimagusa) where the Roman City of Salamis should not be missed. Nicosia (Lefkosa) is about 30 minutes away and boasts the beautiful Selimiye Mosque, built by the Lusignans from 1208. The Great Turkish Bath dates back to the Ottoman period. Walk around the old streets around this area, filled with interesting little shops, then sit in the beautiful square close to the Mosque and enjoy a coffee whilst taking in the historic architecture.

Bahceli village (further up into the mountains) is a very rural village, worth a drive up to see how village life there has remained so unchanged. There are no facilities there – only smiling, curious faces. Esentepe village, approximately 8 minutes drive away, has the nearest mini-mart and two rustic restaurants. There are other restaurants a short drive away, such as Nazar’s, about 10 minutes East – a simple but excellent restaurant at very reasonable prices, close to the sea and with a resident donkey! A large supermarket, Lemar, is on the road to Kyrenia. Local prices are amongst the lowest in Europe.
