Cyprus

GEORGE

We enjoyed our stay in Tokhni, the village was very scenic and atmosphere was relaxing. The village is very peaceful and locals all very friendly. We where made extremely welcome by George and his mother Niovi. They where very friendly and always at hand if we needed anything. The apartment was very well equipped with appliances and also very clean. We will definitely be returning next year and be recommending the holiday to family and friends.

Vrakas House Suite

We recently had a two week stay in the Vrakas House.  
My wife and I had a wonderful holiday.  The villa was exactly as described and met our expectations.  The villa was very good value for money.  George the owner was there to meet us on arrival and he and his wife and mother were extremely helpful and friendly from ensuring things worked well in the property to advising on places to see and visit.  Nothing was too much trouble and they were at hand if needs be.

The villa is rural but beautiful and tucked away in a typical Cypriot village. Lovely place to stay and escape from the rat race!  You do need a car to explore further and wide but the road systems are easy to navigate and it is easy to get around the main areas of Cyprus.

We will definitely be returning again in the future and would certainly recommend!

Very nice house  -  all we needed,  friendly/helpful host/hostess. Intimate and cosy village. In our opinion it is necessary with a rental car (which we had). Description how to find house not to good (we arrived in the middle of the noght..)

NIOVI HOUSE

Norway

 From Mo I Rana, Norway

we stayed at this villa for 7 days, on first impressions the villa is stunning, very clean and well maintained its in a lovel little village up in the hills the owner was very welcoming and nothing was to much for him to do, one thing i will say is that the villa is not private to just you as there are other apartments downstairs which at times did make us feel like we couldnt go down and use the pool as we felt a bit awkward with people sat there almost watching us, we where under the impression that it would be private as it says private pool so you assume that private means private to you not everybody who will be staying there, on a plus side the people downstairs went out most days so we did get it to yourself but it would have ruined our holiday if they hadnt of gone out most days, another English couple turned up 2days before we left who also thought it was private so i think maybe the wording needs to be changed as it can be misinterpreted as had we known it wasnt private we wouldnt of booked that villa as we just wanted some where we could escape from everything and not have other people around us as if we had wanted that we would of stayed in a hotel.

 From Horam

This was a lovely peaceful place to stay. It is very authentic and in a lovely village.

 From Penarth

Back again as promised. Loved it, could not ask for more.

 From Fleet

We loved it and hopefully will be returning next May. If we had discovered the property years ago I feel we would now be part of the family.

Not for people seeking luxury 5 star accomodation, but for those that want to see Cyprus as the locals do. Mrs Niovi kept us supplied wirh delicious figs and George was there if you needed him. Car hire essential but the roads are very good.

Property even came with its own pets, see picture.

Ignore the directions given to get to the property, simply get on the road to Limassol or Lemessos ( same place) and take the turn to Zygi after about 30 minutes.

I stayed at Vrakas house, after initially booking Niovi house. Vrakas house is a little bit larger and George (the villa owner) was kind enough to let us change the booking with no problem whatsoever. Both houses were stunning as was the village, but most importantly, the welcome and service given to us by both George and Mrs Niovi were outstanding. I have rarely felt so welcome anywhere and it felt like going to visit a member of our own family. They were both fantastic with our young children, so much so that my two year old would go and knock on Mrs Niovis window most mornings. For a warm and welcoming place to stay, I couldnt fault it. the facilities were also great and we were hugely impressed with how the villas had been transformed. Would definitely recommend to others.

 From London

We went to Cyprus to get married, but did not feel like staying in a place full of tourists. Instead, we wanted to get some original, authentic Cyprus. We got it in Tochni. The house was better than expected in terms of it being absolutely separate from the rest of Niovi property. It had a shower, kitchen, bedroom, cute backyard and nobody else! 
Mrs. Niovi is a wonderful lady and so is George, her son. She helped my wife a lot with getting dressed for our wedding. Very kind and decent people who you would want to see again.

Located conveniently between Limassol and Larnaca (30-minute drive each way), however the rental car is a must have! Nearest beach is about 15-minute ride.

If we ever go to Cyprus again, we know where we are staying.

 From Toronto

A small secluded property with a private courtyard, it is nicely restored from a very old building. The owner is friendly and helpful, and his mother lives opposite. In a  narrow alley at the top of an ancient hill-top village. 3 restuarants in the picturesque village but none open in the winter, the general store however appears to stock absolutely everything. Only a couple of miles from the motorway it is well placed to explore Cyprus but a hire car is essential. An ideal modest property for two who wish to stay in a traditional part of Cyprus.
