Holiday Apartment Cyprus - villa holiday apartments in cyprusAs far as most holiday visitors are concerned, Cyprus means the southern part of the island. It is highly developed, with a thriving and sophisticated tourism industry, plenty of direct scheduled and charter flights and an abundance of attractive villas and apartments.Southern Cyprus has several busy resorts with large hotels, but also quieter areas, ideal for a villa apartment holiday. The biggest resorts are Limassol, Larnaka and purpose-built Ayia Napa, but these cater mainly for hotel-based package holidaymakers and can get very busy with their fair share of noisy youngsters. Protaras is more relaxed than its neighbour Ayia Napa and has a fine beach, but if you prefer somewhere less frantic and with a bit more history, Paphos in the west is probably the best bet. It has a big, interesting harbour with lots of fishing and pleasure boats, and the Saturday market shouldn't be missed. Other sights include the Tomb of the Kings and the Paphos mosaics. A few kilometres to the north, Coral Bay has an excellent beach and a good choice of villas and apartments, while Peyia is a firm favourite with many visitors who really love Cyprus and return again and again. For a quiet, low key villa apartment holiday you could head a little further north to the unspoilt Akamas peninsula, famous for its turtles, and the very pleasant Lachi and Pissouri areas. |
