A superb holiday I won't forget in a long time

I recently spent a week at the Rosara villa as part of a mixed group of eight adults. It was the first time I had been to Cyprus, and I had a fantastic time and very much enjoyed both the villa and the island.
The villa itself is just as lovely as it appears in pictures. It's very well equipped and all eight of us were more than comfortable during our stay. Roger and Sarah did a great job of providing all the info we needed before our arrival, including clear instructions on how to get there from Larnaca airport (a very straightforward drive that takes little more than an hour) to everything we needed to know about the villa itself.
In my opinion it's perfectly placed, as it's set in a very tranquil environment, but is only 6km from Ayia Napa, so you can decide on what type of holiday you're going to have - relaxing and chill out, or more lively. We did a mixture of both!
During our week's stay we did a number of things that I'd highly recommend: a day at the water park, only about a 10 minute drive from the villa, go karting (right by the water park), a boat trip from Ayia Napa harbour, a day on Nissi beach, and about four nights out in Ayia Napa for either a meal or a night out.
I'd also recommend a trip to the nearby Carre Four supermarket to stock up the fridge for a week - we did, and it was an inexpensive way of eating very well for the week. Another must-try is having a barbeque one evening at the villa by the pool - bliss!
We hired two cars between the group and I'd say this was a good idea, as it means everyone there can get about and doesn't have to rely on taxis. The only time we took taxis was into Ayia Napa for nights out (and on the way back) and this typically cost us about 15 euro.
In short - we had such a good time and will definitely return. Thank you Roger and Sarah for a lovely week and a great introduction to Cyprus!
