Villas in Pernera

This was a modern Villa in a very pleasant estate close to beach and bars/shops/restaurants and bus routes to Protaras. Villa had everything we needed including a good sized pool. Only criticism was that view to rear of Villa was of a building site with wrecked car and tatty vegetation which was a surprise when we fist arrived as no mention was made of this. However, though I was at first annoyed with this, it did NOT spoil our holiday or time in the Villa and we would certainly book this Villa again despite the view. Only other minor critique is that I never really sussed out the TV controls so it would have been nice to have a better explanation on arrival. Owners were very kind to supply us with high chair, cot and also use of their buggy, which was very decent of them. It saved on a lot of extra baggage to be taken on the plane! Information contained in the welcome booklet was helpful. Coded Security Keylock at front door was very useful. To conclude, We had a great holiday and the Villa was excellant. We would go back and are already discussing a return for next year!

Good points: Location; end of quiet cul-de-sac & walking distance to restaurants, seaside promenade etc. Clean pool with outdoor shower. Lots of clothes storage space. 2 rooms had a safe. Electricity trips often; the once we couldn’t reset it, Mary the local contact, sorted it the following day. The other reviews of the villa made no reference to what could make it better, so these are our suggestions: > Online info could be improved - beach towels? safes? etc. Query raised with owner before departure from UK responded to after our arrival in Cyprus. > However, contact in Cyprus (Mary) very helpful re. a/c difficulty on arrival. This situation could have been avoided with some info in the villa about amenities, a/c, TV, rubbish, recycling, locality restaurants, places of interest etc. > Attention to detail: cleaning equipment & messy tarpaulin discarded outside villa to greet us on arrival. > More seating/lounging - just enough for 6 (but not advertised 9). > More crockery & water/juice tumblers (we bought 6). > Bigger microwave. > Kitchen scales. > More tea towels. > Dishwasher. > Hand towels for everyone & separate beach towels. > DVD that works (or instructions?). > Improved cleaning inside & out. Of particular note - bedrooms, large rug in master bedroom was filthy & had bits of glass in it; blood on a bedspread, cobwebs etc in outside seating area & loungers etc. > As the owner lives locally a courtesy visit would be nice & signal the intention to make guests welcome - just a thought. Summary. Great location but a bit tired. At the end of quiet cul-de-sac of 9 villas (all look in better nic than #5, Villa Elena). Could easily be improved with attention to detail, better cleaning, some information for visitors & enough equipment for advertised number of guests. Bringing the villa up to the standard of its neighbours will require more effort. Would still recommend to others if our suggestions are acknowledged

We stayed at this villa August 2018. The villa is stunning and looks exactly like the photographs. We were contacted by the manager prior to arrival and was given all the details we needed. We were also asked if we had any special requests. On arrival the villa was very clean, towels were provided and a little welcome pack of milk, cereal etc. The bedrooms had plenty of storage and from the rear bedrooms we could see the sea. The pool area comfortably seated six people as well as six sunloungers. There was always some part of the pool area that had sun all day but an umbrella was provided if you needed it. The pool was cleaned twice a week and bedding/towels changed after a week. The kitchen was fully equipped. Location was excellent, it was approximately 5-10 minute walk to the nearest beach cove. It is approximately a 10 minute walk one way into Protaras and the same the other way into Pernera. Although being able to use the facilities of the Flouressia Gardens opposite meant there was a pool bar close by! Overall I would definitely recommend this villa and hope myself and my family will return in the future.

We were a bit disappointed that there were no mirrors in the bedrooms, not good when the girls wanted to dry hair and put make up on. We thought the furnishings rather cluttered and a bit of a mish mash. The master bedroom doesn't need 3 armchairs and a dining chair, rather a dressing table and a second bedside table. That aside we enjoyed our holiday, but we all felt the villa would benefit from a declutter

Excellent property at one of the best areas of Proataras (pernera), very close to the beach, restaurants and amenities. Overall a great family Villa with all you can ask fort.

Lovely property in a great location and equipped with everything and more that its description states. Furnishings to the highest quality throughout internally and externally. Very well maintained pool and gardens ideal for Al Fresco dining or just chilling with a drink. Excellent communications from Lynn at Genesis with regards to all aspects of our stay, including the building of the new barbeque which was carried out with minimal fuss and intrusion, and which gave us an even better outdoor cooking facility. Also a nice friendly pool man who keeps the pool in tip top condition. Good wi-fi access to keep you in touch with the real world whilst you chill. Value for money wise, a good relaxing holiday is worth every penny when you have nothing to concern you, and the villas setting, standard of fit out and equipment meant that that was possible from minute 1 of our holiday. Not sure about the 10 min stroll along the boardwalk to Protaras, maybe more like the proverbial country mile, but certainly a pleasant 25 min walk. All in all we would give a 9.5/10 and we would certainly recommend this Villa to others or return ourselves if visiting Cyprus again. Angie & Ian Wood July 2013
