Flights: Ercan Airport located 40 mins drive away, is Northern Cyprus's international airport. Manchester, Stansted and a number of other airports offer direct flights, transfer is usually free if you are booking car hire, otherwise it is approximately £25. Larnaca, in the south of the island , offers more flights and is usually cheaper. Again, the taxi is approximately 60 mins with a cost of £40. Please note you will not be able to pick up a hire car from Larnaca, due to insurance, you can however, pick up a hire car from Ercan if required. We can arrange taxi from both airports and car hire on if required. The local managing agent will meet you at the villa with keys and provide you with a welcome pack of essentials. She will be avilable to answer any questions or queries you may have during your stay.

Getting around: The villa is in walking distance to the sea, shops, bars and restaurants and there is a very good local bus service which will pick up and drop anywhere along the main road. However, to see the real Northern Cyprus and explore the many attractions a car is essential. they also drive on the left which makes getting around very easy. The roads are quite good, but please be aware of speed limits as there are a number of speed cameras along the main from Lapta at Kyrenia.

Further information: Northern Cyprus has a wonderful climate with over 300 days of sunshine per year with the temperature rarely dropping below 70F from May to September. The people are very friendly and helpful, with many of them speaking English. Children are particularly welcomed in restaurants and are well catered for. Northern Cyprus is still relatively unspoilt with no big fast food chains present, although you can purchase British favourites at the local supermarkets. The currency is the Turkish Lira and all major credit cards area accepted.

Review Submitted: November 1, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
My wife, myself and 2 friends spent a fantastic stay at Villa Baba in the first 2 weeks of October. From the initial contact with the owner to our final taxi drive back to Larnaca the service and smooth arrangements could not be better. We were met by the lovely Christina, who not only showed us around the villa, but also took us in her own car to the Supermarket as our hire care was booked for the following day. The villa is situated in a quiet short road of 3 villas and is extremely well appointed with every comfort provided for a relaxing holiday and I can only reiterate the words of the previous reviewers. The terrace at the back became our "living area" for the 2 weeks with stunning views of the mountains and looking out on to a beautiful infinity swimming pool. To get the best out of the area, I would recommend a hire car which we hired from the Sevener company who do deliver direct to the villa. There are a few Restaurants within walking distance, with the Lapida Hotel especially recommended. If you like a specific dish like klefitico or Mary's special chicken, just let them know by 5 o'clock and it will be ready for you in the evening - service indeed!! Christina provided a very useful hand made map of other restaurants in the area as well as other points of interest and throughout our stay herself and George were a constant source of knowledge and support when needed. Thanks to all involved in a truly memorable holiday. We will be back!!
Owner's Response: Thank you for the lovely comments, hope to see you soon.

Lovely holiday

John and Antonia Abu Dhabi
Review Submitted: August 25, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Having never been to Cyprus - North or South, we did not know what to expect. When we arrived, the first thing that struck us was the amazing backdrop of the mountains, the beautiful Olive trees, and the lovely, charming villa that was to be our home for the next 2 weeks nestled into all of this.
The villa was modern, clean with all the mod cons, and a perfect size for a family of 4 with a room to spare. The pool was a lovely size, and many a day was spent lounging around it.
On exploring days there was loads in the area to see and do - castles, waterparks, snorkelling, kyrenia, nicosia, mountain villages, the list is endless.
Eating wise, there is a fully equipped kitchen or a lovely BBQ area for the nights when you stay in, and plenty of bars and restaurants close by for the nights you don't. Some even have a pick up and drop off service so that you don't have to drive.
AND then .... there was Christina and her husband George. Charged with giving us the keys, and making sure everything was okay, they surpassed themselves. A wonderful couple who went out of their way to help us. Knowledgable as to where to eat, drink, visit, shop they were there for us. Nothing was too much trouble, the kids feel in love with them as did we.
Our holiday was fantastic, we were very sad to leave - the place, the people, all became very dear to us. We shall return - very soon I hope.

cyprus revisited

mackay/yavruturk edinburgh
Review Submitted: August 12, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
having lived for many years during the 1980's in northern cyprus i was keen to return for a few weeks to relax in the sun. I spent 2 weeks at Villa baba in July with my teenage daughter and her friend. The pool was the main reason that i choose this particular villa so was slightly disappointed that none of the underwater lights were working so our planned night time swims were not possible. The location is pretty rural and perhaps not ideal for everyone. There is a British pub a short walk away but to get a real taste of the island and it's people i would recommend visiting the small villages a short drive away which are still relatively untouched by the large influx of british expats who now live in northern cyprus. The villa itself was clean and comfortable and the air conditioning in the bedrooms much appreciated.The large upstairs turreted room is used as the owners storage and is kept locked .Christine was on hand to assist with anything that was required and lives nearby if needed. A car is essential if you are staying in this villa . There is a beach a short walk away but there are many much nicer beaches a short drive along the coast.It is perhaps not ideal for families with teenagers unless you are willing to drive them everywhere although there are buses which can be caught on the main road which is only about a 10 minute walk from the villa. My daughter and her friend went clubbing one night in Kyrenia and i deceided to treat us all to a night in a hotel as the option of myself in the villa alone until the early hours was a bit too creepy!! Nothern Cyprus is a lovely island with many great restaurants and beach activities. At certain times of the year turtle beach is great to see the turtles hatch and make their way into the sea. Bellapais is beautiful for an evening meal on the lit terraces with a breathtaking view of the island and sea below. salamis ruins at Famagusta is a great day trip and you must spend a day taking one of the many boat trips that leave from Kyrenia Harbour where you are served a lovely lunch and stop a few times throughout the day to swim in the sea. . Do take time out during your stay to dine at many of the basic but delicious turkish family run reataurants dotted around the island as this is the real cyprus as i remember it and is their livliehood. Roast beef dinners, fish and chips and english karaoke nights are best enjoyed in England

My dream holiday.

Edcat Scotland
Review Submitted: June 9, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
My husband and I spent a perfect holiday at the Villa Baba from the 26th to the 31st May, 2009. Our driver was waiting at Larnaca Airport and the transfer was great.
We arrived at our Villa and was greeted by a lovely lady called Christine, and I am endebted to her and her husband George for all the help and advice given by them during our stay there. They made us feel very welcome and relaxed. Nothing was any trouble to them.
The Villa was even more beautiful than it looks on the web site, if that is possible. The whole place was immaculate and in very good repair. The two twin rooms have patio doors directly onto the pool area and are well equipped with plenty of storage and that wonderful thing called air-con. The master bedroom is cool and beautiful with a massive en-suite. I think my breath was taken away with the property, both indoors and out.
The kitchen has everything that you could desire. I was especially impressed to find that a welcome pack had been provided taking away the pressure of finding the nearest shops. In short there is nothing I could fault with the Villa.
My husband and I spent most of our holiday living the outside life. There are two outside terraces which you can choose to either sit in the shade or the sun. There is also a BBQ but since this didn't look as if it had been used yet we decided not to be brave enough to be the first. There is plenty of garden and patio furniture so even if there is a party of six staying and they have visitors round there is no shortage of sun-beds or chairs. Sorry to ramble on but I am in love with this Villa and Lapta, and if I wasn't so selfish would recommend it to all my friends.
There are plenty of really good restaurants to visit round about and JK's the pub is five minutes walk, good for lunches and meeting some of the local ex-pats. I also tried scuba diving for the first time, Fantastic and recommended. Brave Heart the dive boat sits in Aphrodite Bay so not too far to go to have a try.
The only fault I have with my holiday is that it went all too fast, but will definately be back hopefully for a longer stay. The service from the owner has been excellent and with Christine and George nearby, what can I say! Thank you all for the perfect dream holiday.
Edward and Catherine
