Villas in Paralimni

This is a lovely Villa in a quiet location so if you want a peaceful and private place to stay than Villa Knossos ticks every box. It has a basic supermarket and a fabulous fish speciality restaurant within 5 minutes walk and Serina beach and Trinity beach within 10 minutes walk.

What a fantastic villa if i could give it 100 star rating i would my family and i had one of the best holidays ever the villa excelled our expectations in every way air con in every room, t/v in main room with dvd player, playstation and netflix kitchen fully equipped this place is proper home from home the swimming pool was large and warm massive outside area. Christopher could not be more helpful if he tried the location was great only 5 klms from the beautiful resort of protaras and 5 klms from Ayia Napa with around 7 fabulous beaches near by.If you read any negative reviews on this villa IGNORE them because there arnt any.

Please be informed that villa isn't serviced, you are supposed to clean everything by yourself. And you definitely need a car to get to the beaches. There are plenty of nice beaches in 5-10 minutes drive. The large and cheap supermarket is only 3 minutes drive from villa. The kitchen is large and offers everything what you need (the pans should be changed though:). Bathrooms and bedrooms are large and clean. And the swimming pool is giant!:) We spent a nice week in the villa. There are number of drawbacks though: The villa looks old and needs better maintenance. The owner should hire someone to clean the swimming pool, to take care of grill (the gas was on during one bbq only and stopped flowing due to empty tank, nobody changed it) and lights in the house (half of the lamps were simply absent and couple of remaining ones were burnt out). There is no garbage bin outside the villa and the owner were unable to answer where we should put our garbage so we ended driving to the town and searching for the large communal bins there. There are lots of large cockroaches in the kitchen.

Cottage as described close to the beach, easily reached on foot in 5 min. Beach: Sand, clean, clear water, gently sloping, suitable for small children as well as older, the first attempts to try diving, no loud music. Recommendation: rental car, as the way to the supermarket is a bit too far and excursions otherwise difficult. Unfortunately I can not report on bus and taxi experience.

The pictures of the property really don't do it justice. It was far bigger than expected with plenty of space for peace and quiet if needed or great space for getting together. It is in a lovely location if relaxation is required, if it's partying and nightlife you want then it's perhaps not for you but Protaras and Ayia Napa are not too far away. The beaches are good, well within walking distance. Our party consisted of Grandparents, daughter and three teenagers and we all enjoyed the villa and surrounding area. Eating out required transport but if your up for a stroll try the Bakers Arms ( English pub). All in all top marks fantastic place.

So we rented Athena for 8nights at beginning of August 2017 so we could attend a friends wedding during the week. We wanted our own freedom of a Villa and be nearby enough to not be held back in attending all the local festivities and activities. Athena is set a short drive from Naipa and an even shorter drive from Parilimni in a very secluded setting that offers a surprisingly stunning view out front! Lets you excape all the hustle and noise of a built up area, but is accesible with a vehicle. * Shops are a two min drive on a straight road. ** For any Brits, Maccies deliver and is a four min drive! ***Taxis seat seven and will charge a flat rate of €15 in the day and €18 in the eve, which is annoying as it would definately be cheaper with a mater on, but you try finding a taxi with a meter in. *** You will most definately want a vehicle, booking in advance on Rental Cars saved us a small fortune and for the eight days we got a car (Kia Rio) for £260 (fully covered) *** The Villa is what you see in the images, was very very clean inside the villa and out. Very spacious living area/kitchen. Bedrooms were fine, the master bedroom w/ its ensuite and jet bath is amazing! The pool is amazing, always good temp to dive in! Big enough for games, lights up beautifully on an eve for a skinny dip! Garden has a plenty of tanning area and in the later hours just take the lounger onto the drive for that extra tanning time! Offers great privacy out the rear! The air conditioning was perfect, keep the doors shut for maximum effect during the day! Odd thing to note but what some may find handy, party of five and we wasn't bitten once all week! No problem with bugs/flies etc. We had three regular large red dragon flies named Neil, Nigel and Nobby which were our pool mascots! Cockroaches were sighted outside and we had one brave visitor in our sink but in a country like cyprus all is expected, just keep your plugs in! Complaints to be picking would be that; bird droppings and AC leaks make the floor slightly unveiwing in the rear garden, once cleaned by ourselves this wasn't an issue. The Dishwasher didn't work at all. The BBQ wasn't amazing to look at and needed a clean, but she gets the job done and comes with everything you need to have a succesful cookout. There are only four working sunbeds, in a villa that has four singles and a double bed i found that this could be an issue for a larger group. Honestly, settling into the Villa was easy and it was a great stay! The inside space, the pool, the quiet, the freedom made our holiday great! I would definately reccomend!
