Eating Out:
We have found some lovely restaurants to eat. Riminis in the triangle area, opposite Amathus Beach Hotel. Excellent meals . Crocodile Bar does lovely English breakfast at very reasonable price, also does good snacks. Nature Bar does home cooked food and is also very good. The Moorings restaurant near the harbour does lovely meals and a good afternoon tea and cakes. There are Chinese, Italian, Indian, Japanese, Thai all available. Even a McDonald's! We have not been round all of the restaurants yet but the standard so far is very good. We visited Pissouri which is a lovely spot and found a nice local beach and some local bars and restaurants. Polis is also very nice and the drive has some great views.
Try Fat Mamas they do a huge plate of food and you mix and match menus ie steak, Mexican enjoyed the night there.
Golf Holidays:
Paphos area has two golf courses at the moment and is building another 7 golf courses and hopes to make Cyprus a golfing holiday retreat.
Flights and Location:
We have found that the sooner you book your flights, the cheaper you get them. Don't leave it to the last minute thinking you will get a bargain. We book usually six months in advance. We usually fly with BA but they have recently sold out to EasyJet. They start flying from April 2008. There are a lot of airlines flying to Paphos both scheduled and charter flights. First Choice, Thomson, Thomas Cook, My Travel, Cyprus Airways, Olympic, Eurocypria, Jet2. We hire a car because the Cypriots drive on the left the same as at home and you get to see a lot more of the island. Paphos and Larnaca airports are both being enlarged at the moment to cope with the capacity.
It is a 15 minute drive from the airport to the apartment. We can send a map with directions but is is quite easy to get around Paphos and is a straight run from the airport. Look on Google Maps.You can usually get a taxi from outside the airport or pre book one and you can also pick up your rental car from the airport.
