Weddings: Cyprus is the birthplace of Aphrodite, the ancient Greek goddess of love. Today Cyprus is one of the most popular destinations in the world for couples to tie the knot outside of their own country. Villa Mara is a 10 minute walk from one of the most exclusive hotels for weddings on the island, the Grecian Park Hotel, which sits atop the cliff overlooking Konnos Bay. Whilst the bride and groom will stay in the hotel, guests may choose to enjoy the freedom and luxury of Villa Mara which provides excellent value in comparison. With another villa of similar size in the development readily bookable through us, up to 12 guests can stay close to the wedding party and enjoy each other’s company in a more relaxed environment prior to the Big Day. Contact us for more details. |

| Car required? |
recommended The Agia Napa to Paralimni bus service runs from the end of the road every 20 minutes in summer from 07:00 to 04:00. A flat fare of €1 applies for each journey. It is therefore possible to get around without a car - we have had guests stay for 3 weeks at a time without one, but it is more convenient to have a car. |
| Local leisure activities |
Konnos Bay Beach (15 min walk/3 min drive) is the best beach on the island. As well as being ideal for swimming and sunbathing, Mike’s Water sports has a variety of up to date boats, jet skis and water activities including water skiing, parasailing and banana boats for hire. Mimosa Beach is a 10 min walk/3 min drive from the villa, is ideal for swimming and there is a bar serving food and drinks all day. The Cyclop's Cave dive site is a 10 min walk from the villa. A dive centre is within walking distance. We know a swimming instructor who will come to the house to give swimming lessons and a personal trainer who runs fitness sessions and boot camps nearby. A fully equipped spa is available at the Grecian Park Hotel. There is an excellent bike route from the villa to Agia Napa along the coastal road. Bicycles, motorbikes, scooters and dune buggies can be hired from Ham Yam Rentals which is 15 min walk away. There are 3 golf courses within driving distance of the villa: Aphrodite Hills, Minthis Hills and Secret Valley. There is a short snow season in the Troodos mountains from January to March with fun to be had by all ages from tobogganers to serious skiers. The Troodos mountain range stretches across most of the western side of Cyprus and is about 15C cooler than at the coast year round. There are many famous mountain resorts, Byzantine monasteries and churches on mountain peaks and, nestling in valleys, are picturesque mountain villages clinging to terraced hill slopes covered in vines. Omodos is one such village.

Holiday at Villa Mara
We visited Villa Mara in May 2010 for ten days and found it an attractive, very well appointed and equipped villa, with comfortable furnishings and a relaxing atmosphere. The terrace/barbecue area provided an excellent place for dining and we especially enjoyed breakfast in the open air each morning in the sunshine. A dip before lunch in the pretty pool area was most welcome.
There were a number of very beautiful bays and beaches nearby and we took a short boat ride from one. We also took a scenic drive to the Troodos mountain area, which being somewhat cooler, was good for easy walking. We enjoyed a number of good, very friendly restaurants, a number of which were within walking distance of the villa which we found so welcome on arrival after our flight. We found interesting towns within easy reach and nearby Agia Napa boasted attractive and good restaurants: we especially liked the family friendly Limanara which is situated on the coastal road.
The owners provided a very useful information sheet before we departed and it was good to find that the local management company was most helpful and really did appear very quickly when needed. Thank you for a most relaxing and enjoyable holiday and we look forward to visiting again next year!

Villa Mara
In July 2010 we visited Villa Mara and had a fantastic holiday. The Villa is well appointed for a great family holiday and in a great location for near by beaches. The Bus stop on the main road [ 2 Mins from Villa] is idea for those who wish to get about Cyprus without the use of a hire car or go into the main resort area where there are numerous bars and resturants..
The directions and other information given in advance meant the Villas was easy to find. The management agency are located close by and the staff are very helpful should you encounter any problems duriny you're stay. We will definitely return to Villa Mara and have no hesitation in recommending it to others. Ian & Liza and the girls.
Thought it was fantastic
We were the first guests to stay in the villa and thought it was fantastic. It is so great to have a swimming pool all to yourself and the decking and plants in the garden made it feel very cosy. We also loved that a quiet, sandy beach was only 10 minutes walk away. We have told all our friends and can’t wait to go back next summer
April 2010
In April 2010 we visited Villa Mara and had a wonderful holiday. The villa is comfortably fitted out for a family and in a great location for beaches, restaurants and other activities. The directions and other information given in advance meant our journey went smoothly, and the management company was very helpful whilst we were there. We will definitely return to Villa Mara and have no hesitation in recommending it to others
June 2010
We stayed at Villa Mara in June 2010 and found it very spacious, with very good amenities, a nice pool, sun all day, good local restaurants and a supermarket nearby.
