Perfect villa!

Our first non-hotel experience in Cyprus (on our 6th visit) and perfect in every way. The villa is equipped with everything you need and having your own private pool is excellent, particularly with the sea view. We saw that lots of other villas nearby didn't have this view and felt we had a significant advantage over them! It's nice and peaceful, private and very relaxing. Close enough to the shops, restaurants and bars to easily walk up but far enough not to be disturbed by the nightlife if that's not your cup of tea. The kitchen is well equipped, and there was a lovely welcome pack of fruit, vegetables and wine which was a really nice start to the holiday.
The villa was very clean, and towels were provided. The garden is very pretty and nicely maintained, and it's a pleasure to spend time by the pool just watching the lizards, butterflies and cats passing by! Air conditioning in the bedroom was an absolute lifesaver as the week we were there was very hot (80+ degrees). It was also great to have a TV with some films (definitely take your own CDs and DVDs if this appeals). We had an entirely peaceful and uninterrupted week - even though there were guests next door this really didn't interfere with our privacy and peace and quiet.
We wrote a lot of recommendations for activities, restaurants etc in the visitors book so if you go do please look them up! My only last tip is to take up the offer of being picked up by the local person (the owner will give you the details if you book) rather than taking a taxi from the airport. This was quite costly (our own fault as we just jumped in without asking price first). We later rented a car from Atlas rentals on the main Coral Bay strip which was good - if you want to explore the coast line etc.
In summary we completely recommend this villa, and we'll definitely be back!
