The villa also overlooks the village sports/football ground although, regrettably, not many energetic activities take place during the high season months.

The accommodation consists of an open plan kitchen/living room/dining room and separate utility room. The living area which features a working fireplace is furnished with comfortable sofas, a television and DVD player. The satelite television features over 20 British channels including news, movies, sports, cartoons, music and general entertainment.

The kitchen is equipped with an oven & hob, fridge/freezer and washing machine. The double bedroom has its own en suite bathroom and the two remaining twin bedrooms share the full family bathroom which completes the accommodation.

Both ceiling fans and fly screens are fitted throughout and each bedroom is equipped with air-conditioning units* for both cooling and heating. During the winter season (Dec - Feb) an additional portable gas heater can be provided. A baby cot and highchair can be provided on request.

The villa also features Wireless Internet Access (Wi-Fi) ideal for those with a or smartphone for checking emails and surfing the net.

New from May 2011 is a full size pool table and table tennis table for great outdoor fun in the sun.

Leading from the shaded patio area off the living area is the 8 x 4 metre private swimming pool with walk-in steps. The pool is surrounded by a terrace area equipped with sunbeds, umbrellas and a poolside shower. A portable barbecue is provided to help you make the most of outdoor dining during the hot summer months. The extensive orchard behind the villa contains a selection of fruit trees including date palms, apples, bananas, walnuts, figs, pomegranates, papaya and sultana vines, all planted and lovingly cared for by the owners who are very keen gardeners.

Away from the more mainstream tourist destinations, Ayia Marina is a small, quiet village with a long stretch of unspoilt coastline, situated between the village of Argaka and the tiny seaside resort of Pomos with its small fishing harbour. The village has a small grocery store, a coffee shop, a bakery and a small souvlaki house (summer opening only) all within 2 kilometres of the villa.

The nearest restaurant is in the neighbouring village of Argaka approximately 6 kilometres away, with a handful of additional tavernas dotted along the coastal road that leads back towards Polis. The undeveloped beaches of this area stretch along a natural coastline of coarse sand, shingle and pebble. For a day here you will need to bring your own beach mat and umbrella. Refreshments can be found at one of the tavernas scattered along the coastal road or you can take a cool box and lunch under the shade of the trees in one of the designated picnic areas in Argaka.

Polis is the principal town for the northwest region, huddled around a pedestrianised square where visitors and locals gather in the mornings to enjoy a coffee and watch the world pass by and in the evenings to dine at one of the wide selection of restaurants, tavernas and cafes which radiate out from the centre. The town has an archaeological museum and cultural centre. Polis which is approximately 14 kilometres away offers the nearest organized beach to the villas backed by tall Eucalyptus trees.

A little further along the coast from Polis is the seaside resort of Latchi with its recently opened 200 berth marina. Here you will find an array of inviting sea-front tavernas with a superb selection of fresh fish and seafood served daily. Just beyond Latchi you will find the well known 'Baths of Aphrodite' and for nature lovers the protected Akamas Peninsular an area particular suited to walkers and adventurers who can explore the many criss-crossed nature trails. The coastline of this area can also be enjoyed by boat with daily excursions available from the marina.

Moving away from the coastal areas to venture a little further inland, you can explore some of the villages off the beaten track where you'll discover such delights as village cultural centres and museums, galleries, Churches and wineries with free wine tasting!

Polis and the surrounding villages count bowling, go-karting, fishing, cycling, watersports and scuba diving amongst the many activities on offer to the visitor. The Minthis Hills Golf Course is approximately a 50 minute drive away. The town of Paphos with its World Heritage Sites, modern shopping facilities, waterpark and attractive harbour area is within an hours drive. ... read more »hide »
