So sad to have come home! (July 09)

Beautifully presented, well maintained, clean villa with outstanding communication from owner before our 3 week stay. We are a family of 4 who loved staying at villa 'Pia' during our WEDDING in Peyia and continued into our honeymoon.
The villa had well proportioned rooms with everything that we needed for our holiday. The pool was cleaned regularly and the bed linen and towels changed weekly. A surface clean was also arranged which was perfect for a relaxing holiday.
The view is breathtaking! You can swim whilst taking in views down to Coral Bay and along to the lighthouse in Paphos harbour (watch for it at night).
We hired a car and would reccommend this to others. A bus service does run from Peyia down to Coral Bay (3kms)but is not very frequent. A taxi should cost you no more than 10 euro (shop around and be prepared to haggle).
There is lots of sightseeing information in the villa. Kids loved the waterpark, we travelled up to the Troodos mountains, we all did lots of go-carting and horse riding and for a romantic boat trip- we would reccommend the fireworks cruise which departs from Paphos. Travel west, along the coast to Agios Georgios and find a beautiful Chapel, next to which you will find a lady selling her husband's Pottery- well worth finding. If you have a 4 wheel drive- see if you can find the caves!
Lots of family and friends had joined us on our holiday and as they were staying down at Coral bay, this is where we often dined out. Grab a leisurely meal at the Coral King (staff great with kids), enjoy an exciting - prepared in front of you- Japanese meal in the restaurant opposite this. The Elephant makes delicious food but be careful you don't sit next to the max powered fan as your dinner may fly off the plate! The owner also has a bar with a good area for older kids called the 'Millenium Bar' which entertains the whole family with either karaoke, Robbie or Elvis. Cheesy but good!
Shopping at Phillipos supermarket in Peyia ensured we could find everything we needed and during our stay he opened another larger store down in Coral Bay. Half way from Peyia to Coral Bay another shop, 'Spirou' offered cheap prices of delicious salad and veg and very cheap charcoal for the bbq.
Check the Baker, next to the pharmacy out. Alex's bar, also in Peyia, is good for families.
An absolutely wonderful time was had by all,
Thanks so much for our stay,
Don't suppose you would sell it to us for a fiver?? No? 'Was worth a try!' X
