Kato Paphos holiday apartment

Our family stayed at this apartment on 3 September 2008 for 1 week on our first visit to Paphos. Our main reasons for choosing it were because it was ground floor with close proximity to a pool, within walking distance to all the local amenities without the use of a car and because the apartment looked absolutely spotless on the pictures - and we were not disappointed. The apartment is modern, clean and spacious, has everything you need for your break away from home and has a lovely big patio area that overlooks the pool - this was particularly good for us as our three and a half year old could quite safely splash around in the shallow end as we watched from the patio. The complex is really quiet and there were never more than half a dozen people using the pool/sunbeds the entire duration of our stay so it felt very private. Everything you need is within walking distance on the Tombs of the Kings Road which runs past the apartment (although not directly past so it's not too noisy) - supermarkets, chemists, restaurants etc., and the harbour area is a 20 minute walk away via the main road or a little longer by the coastal path and there are loads of lovely places to eat and drink there. There is a bus stop about 100 yards from the apartment and buses run regularly day and night to and from the harbour, Old Town and to the larger beach at Coral Bay. There is a small beach within 5 minutes walk of the apartment, and although it's a bit pebbly, it's fine for building sandcastles and paddling if the children fancy a change from the pool. We would definitely use the apartment again if we return to Paphos and have already raved about it to family and friends. I would say that this apartment probably has the best position on the complex due to its closeness to the pool and the fact that it has such a large patio area which gets the sun all day and is large enough for dining and sunbathing on. It's definitely ideal for families with young children - we felt totally safe sitting out on the patio while our baby and little boy took their naps inside during the day. We really liked Paphos, the weather was excellent and the apartment made our stay a very enjoyable one - a credit to it's owners.
