Review of Cape Diem
Review Submitted: May 12, 2008
Date of Stay: September 2007
We had the perfect holiday at Carpe Diem; the accommodation was superb with the most fantastic swimming pool all to ourselves. The villa was spacious, clean and fully equipped. The kitchen had everything you could want for any cooking you may want to do there, although there were lots of excellent local restaurants nearby -notably Father Gregorios, with traditional well cooked reasonably priced food. There were also many good fish restaurants. It was difficult to know whether to eat out or buy the excellent fruit and vegetables that were freshly picked from the nearby farm. The local baklava and honey drenched cakes were irresistible.
The out of village location meant a car was necessary to travel around, but it also meant it was quiet. There is plenty to see around and about we particularly enjoyed Larnanca. The local beaches are not the best in Cyprus but the pool was so fantastic that you didn't want to swim in the sea, and the pool was big enough for a proper swim .We loved watching the Bee eaters every afternoon whilst floating in the pool, and then the sun setting over the sea whilst enjoying a glass of wine on the balcony.
The owner made sure everything was set up for us and the local contact, who looked after the villa and pool was a useful source of information. We had a totally relaxing holiday and would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a real Cyprus holiday away from the usual tourist spots.
Owner's Response: Thinking of a Cyprus holiday? Villa Carpe Diem will take your breath away and leave you wanting more. The views from the house and pool are amazing. Relax by the pool, read, rest, rejuvenate.
If you choose to explore as our reviewer did, there are delightful nearby villages and thousands of years of history for you to discover. Excellent, reasonably priced food is available close by; so whether you want to dine in or out there is always plenty of choice. With so much on offer its time you came to stay. We look forward to hearing from you.
