really nice villa
Review Submitted: December 29, 2008
Date of Stay: October 2008
With such a lovely island all we needed was a really nice villa and we were not disappointed. The owner helped us to sort out transport to and from the villa/airport and with the car hire. The villa is set a little outside of Coral bay so a car is a must but its location makes it ideal for exploring the island. Everything listed in the inventory was there and the villa really lacked for nothing - except maybe a heated pool which was extremely chilly in October. Although it is surrounded by lots of other properties its location allowed you to see the fantastic sunsets over Coral Bay by sitting on the upstairs balcony.
Owner's Response: We are always happy to help our clients with extra's such as taxi transfers and car hire. The weather did turn quite wet and mild for a few weeks in October 2008, which was unusual for Cyprus, causing the pool to cool down. This was followed by a heat wave in November when everything heated up again ! Whilst it would be nice to have the option of a heated pool, the cost would be prohibitive - we do like to offer best value for money to our clients. Generally the pool is warm enough for swimming from May through to October, whilst the sea remains warm well into November. The Villa is located in Peyia close to local facilities including bars, restaurants, shops. It also does enjoy a cul-de-sac position backing onto open fields behind. We would always recommend a car so that guests can experience the best of Cyprus, we are ideally situated to visit the Akamas Nature reserve, Troodos mountains and both the south and north coastlines. However some guest just want to "Chill out" and just use the local facilities and maybe walk down the back lanes to Coral Bay, enjoy the beach, a meal and a drink and then get a 10 minute taxi ride back.
