Apollon View (apartment)

Home description

New in 2007, this modern superbly equipped penthouse apartment is ideally located. As part of a small development in an established and peaceful residential area; it is close to all amenities. From your own large and secluded veranda (as big as some apartments) you can take in the excellent sea views and relax in the warmth of the Cypriot sunshine, or enjoy the pleasant evenings with some al fresco dining. Good quality outdoor furniture is provided, making this unique space the perfect place to unwind. Feel free to cool off in the lovely swimming pool (shared with only a handful of other apartments) or pop down to the nearby sandy beaches for a dip in the crystal clear Mediterranean sea. Excellent facilities such as restaurants, tavernas and supermarkets are all approximately 7-15 minutes walk away, or just moments in the car.

Exceptionally comfortable and air conditioned throughout, the apartment is furnished in a contemporary style to a very high standard, with many extras. Unlike typical hotel apartments, it really is a home away from home and includes a well equipped kitchen. For those of you with children there are plenty of extras such as toys, snorkels and inflatables, plus a DVD player / PlayStation 2 and games to keep them entertained, whilst you put your feet up and relax. A flexible sleeping layout means that families, couples and groups alike can benefit from the peaceful setting, wealth of activities, amenities and nightlife this apartment and area have to offer.

The Famagusta District

Famagusta district with its excellent year round climate, sandy blue flag beaches and charming villages has developed to include two of the best resorts on the island, Protaras and Ayia Napa. With new property limited to just three storeys by strict planning laws, the sprawl of ugly high rise blocks so often found elsewhere has been prevented. Famagusta retains many links to its past and is still an important farming region with picturesque windmills dotted across the countryside. The nearby traditional village centres of Paralimni and Dherynia offer an insight into the real Cypriot way of life.

Well connected, a short drive along the motorway can take you to the capital city of Nicosia or up into the Troodos Mountains; you can even go skiing in the winter! A trip to see the Caledonia waterfall is well worth it at any time of the year.

It’s also a convenient base to easily cross the border into the nearby Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, either as part of an organised tour or independently. Visit the old walled City of Famagusta (from where the region gets its name) ancient ruins at Salamis and lofty Kantara Castle, all impressive and thoroughly recommended.

Kapparis / Paralimnia area

Protaras – 5 minutes drive from the apartment, has all the facilities one would expect of a family resort including plenty of restaurants and nightlife. The excellent beach at Fig Tree bay is definitely worth a look, as are the numerous water sports available. There are dive centres for exploring the crystal waters of the Med and mountain bike hire for those who want to explore the trails through the beautiful countryside.

Kapparis – Has many amenities of its own, most within walking distance of the apartment or only a minute or so in the car. There are numerous bars and restaurants which are universally excellent. With Greek, Cypriot and international cuisine available you'll never get bored of the choice on offer! Fireman’s Cove, the best local sandy beach is approximately a 15 minute walk from the apartment (2mins by car) and is great place to sun, swim or snorkle in the clear blue sea, or an ideal starting point for a walk along the coast. The beach at Ayia Triada is also a favourite.

Paralimni – This bustling local town will give you a taste of the real Cyprus. Watch the locals playing backgammon on the street corners, perhaps sample a local brew in a traditional taverna and take a walk around the centre and historic churches. Open all year round, this is especially popular with winter visitors. As the capital of the Famagusta region there are lots of everyday shops, some good restaurants and well known fast food choices here too.

Ayia Napa – Offering something for everyone, is only 15mins by car from the apartment. Having improved its image in recent years, Ayia Napa is now a more sophisticated, cosmopolitan and family friendly town with some excellent restaurants. If nightlife is your thing, clubbing to the early hours is available along ‘the strip’ with taxis available to take you home. A huge waterpark here provides a great day out for children and adults alike.

Cape Greko – A picturesque peninsular and local nature reserve of many square miles, only 15 mins by car. This area makes for some excellent cycling or an afternoon walk to take in the many sea views. A few minutes further on and you can witness the awesome sea caves. On your way back experience the lovely beach and bar at Konnos Bay.

How to get there

After booking you will receive an information pack which will include detailed directions and a map showing the location of the apartment. It will also highlight the many amenities and attractions of the area.

Fly to Larnaca airport (LCA) which is an easy 40 minute drive away. Cheap flights can be found using www.airflights.co.uk, www.monarch.co.uk, www.easyjet.co.uk, www.travelsupermarket.com, www.flythomascook.com or www.cyprusairways.com. Paphos airport (PFO) offers an alternative and is approximately 2 hours from the apartment all easy motorway. You may find your local UK airport has flights to Paphos, especially during the winter months, which although further from the apartment may cancel out the time you would spend going to an airport further away from home in the UK.

Driving in Cyprus couldn't be easier. They drive on the left (as in the UK) and road signs are in English as well as Greek! With the influx of EU money, the main roads and new motorways on Cyprus are excellent.

A Car is highly recommended to explore the immediate area and get to some of the best beaches. Car hire is available cheaply by booking from the UK with companies like www.carjet.co.uk or www.hertz.co.uk or you can use a local firm for all or part of your stay once you arrive.

A taxi from Larnaca airport to the apartment should approximately 50 EUR.

On request we can arrange your transfer from the airport to the apartment, all we ask is your flight number. Please enquire for more info.

A car is definitely the best way to get around, but public transport is an alternative. The main bus stop is approximately 10 minutes walk from the apartment and takes you to the neighbouring resorts and towns of Protaras, Ayia Napa or Paralimni.

Guestbook for Apollon View

See below for genuine guest reviews:

Just got back from a two week stay in Apollon view having stayed in Cyprus numerous times before and Apollon view is by far the nicest apartment we have stayed in. It's ideally situated with beaches close by, the bars and restaurants of Kapparis too, and minutes away from the local supermarket. The apartment itself has all the mod cons you could ever want and need on a family vacation, it was also spotlessly clean on our arrival. The pool and its facilities were very nice, with a pool area shower block and the use of sunbeds which we have not had at any other private accommodation we have stayed in. The balcony area was the perfect place to chill out at night with al fresco dining and the use of the bbq. All the information received from Martin was very professional, accurate and user friendly. We could not recommend this apartment highly enough, we would like to thank Martin for the use of it and we will definitely be back again next year. THANK YOU. Les and Sarah Goodship - Jul/Aug 2009

Just some feedback for your in relation to our recent holiday to Cyprus. Thanks so much for the use of your apartment for the last 3 weeks. The "virtual viewing" of the apartment from your website video tour in October last year was what hooked us in the first place. The "reality" was far from a disappointment, in fact, it surpassed our expectations regardless of how often we had viewed the website. Absolutely everything we may have needed was available and more, complemented by clear directions and a datapack which was full of all the information we required. Good recommendations on restaurants and places to visit were confirmed. On a personal note, your additional help during our minor medical concern was of great benefit and greatly appreciated. We would have no hesitation in recommending your apartment to anyone, in fact we already have! Thankyou for making our 2009 summer holiday so memorable. Gary & Lynda Maxwell (Northern Ireland) - July 2009

We have just returned from a Two week stay in Apollon View and the weather was fantastic as always. The apartment is wonderful, spacious & clean and the balcony as big as it is in the pictures; we had some lovely BB-Q’s. The apartment has lots of extras too. We hired a car for the time we stayed, which to be honest we would have struggled without. Most things you can walk to but when you have children it makes packing for a day at the beach much easier, Fireman’s and Konnos Bay are both lovely. We had some really good meals locally at the Kanati Tavern, situated in the centre of Paralimni and Stafiros on Protaras beach front is worth a mention too. Also we got fresh rolls every morning from the Bakery, their cakes are wonderful! Thank you for the use of your lovely apartment; we had a great time! We would like to book two weeks next year please! The Tricker & Donald Families - May 2009

We want to say a big thank you for our stay at Apollon View. The apartment had everything we could have wished for, a well equipped kitchen/living area, air conditioning, comfortable bedrooms, clean modern bathrooms and a balcony way beyond all expectations. We found a car very helpful in getting about, however anyone wishing to walk won't find shops, beaches and bars too far away, plus there is a very good local bus service for longer trips. We were also very impressed at the amount of information provided in the apartment as to what to do, where to go, hints and tips etc. All in all, a great place to stay and we will definitely be booking another week next year. Jane, Cathy & Miranda - September 08.

It was great to be back again this year, the holiday really was great! We love the apartment and peace and quiet of the area, eating and drinking on the balcony each night was a joy. Everything you need for a restful holiday is there in the apartment, and it’s only a short drive away from the best bars and eating places, something to suit all needs. We’d recommend a car to explore and you have the choice to visit a number of beaches within 5 minutes drive. WE WILL BE BACK for a third visit!! Mr and Mrs Higgins - September 08

We had a great two week holiday in Cyprus. Your directions are excellent and we found the apartment very easily. The apartment had everything we needed - the extras such as the swimming woggles were really useful for our two girls. Thanks for your ‘info pack’ tip, that as customers there it’s possible to use all the facilities of Kara’s resort - they are lovely pools and we spent three really nice days there with the girls. A key to the pool showers and toilets would be very useful as they were locked at times. (This is now provided - Martin). We all really enjoyed our stay, Thank you. Anticoni family - August 08

Back again this year and the Holiday was fantastic. We love the apartment and the tranqulity of the area. A car is needed to best get around but then we had the choice to visit a number of wonderful beaches easily within a 10 minute drive. We found a beach at the Mimosa Beach Hotel that welcomes everybody. No charge for sunbeds etc with a wonderful cove, swimming pool/showers and restaurant. Would certainly go back and more than happy to recommend to friends and family. Robinson family - June 08

I would like to say that we had a most enjoyable holiday and the apartment and location suited our requirements perfectly. It is very difficult to find a block now with nothing built around it, which gives you that privacy. The facilities and information were excellent and I only wish I had had this when we first came to Cyprus, so for a 1st timer it is spot on. Please don't take this as a criticism but the only small disappointment was the noise from some high spirited guests in a nearby apartment, obviously beyond your control and we didn't hear a peep after they left. Thank you very much for your time and effort and I would not hesitate to recommend to friends and family. O'Leary Family - April 08

Just a note to let you know that we very much enjoyed our week at Apollon View. No problems with your directions and the apartment was perfect for our stay. We enjoyed the local beaches and the views around Cape Greko. And, it was pleasant to walk to the restaurants and bars in Kapparis for some evening refreshment. All in all it was a really relaxing week, great weather, an ideal location and great accommodation. Thank you. Bill & Gail Huddleston - Sept 07

The apartment was beautifully decorated, very comfortable and spacious with a lovely verandah. Very quiet location if that is what you want, especially ideal if you have a family, but is close enough to Protaras or Aiya Napa if you are looking for more of a fun time. All furniture etc supplied was more than adequate and supermarkets are just around the corner. We did not hire a car yet found it was a good location. A car would help you enjoy your stay more (as mentioned by the owner) as the beaches are all different, some better than others. Overall really good and would not hesitate to rent the apartment again. Thanks, Louise Sullivan - August 07

Thanks for your email, yes we had a fabulous time, except that it all went too quickly! We think that the way the apartment is stocked and the furnishings etc are just about spot on – there is nothing we wanted for during our time there, although we did go and buy a frappe whisk!……the apartment is great, and that balcony fantastic – rest assured if we decide to go back, we’ll be calling you – this was our third year in the Protaras region, and we’d certainly go back to Apollon View again with no hesitation! Linkstead family - July 07

Just a quick note to say we had an excellent time last week. Your flat is lovely, a joy to have showers that work properly and an oven that is efficient even if I did only use it once (though the toaster is about as good as English ones!) and the balcony was fantastic. - Mr & Mrs Lelean - June 07

Thank you for the use of your apartment, it was perfect. It really helped to make our holiday memorable. We had mixed weather arriving and leaving in 35 degrees C but with a couple of days of rain in between, not at all normal weather for May. The views from the superb balcony were great as you know, we could see Famagusta, but one day it was so clear we could also see most of the “pan handle” mountains. We tried most of the things you mentioned in your info pack, from the local bakery – such a choice, to the restaurants – Karas, very good value plus we found just along the road Faliros also very good. In Pernera our favourite was definitely Blue Spice where we were also entertained to some wonderful traditional dancing by local high school children. The local beach, fisherman’s cove was very quiet but we also liked the expanse of Fig Tree Bay at Protaras or used the pool complex at the Marlita bar hotel which had a large grass area and child facilities plus was near the beach in Pernea giving the option of pool or beach activities all day. - Skinner Family - May 07

I am just writing to say thank you for all your hard work which went into making our break at Apollon View so enjoyable. We loved the apartment and the way you had kitted it out. For us the location was ideal as we really wanted somewhere which was quiet, yet close enough to the beach and amenities when we wanted them. So top marks all round. The taxi transfer was also a delight, whisking us to and from the airport in comfort and safety. Rest assured that I shall have no hesitation in recommending your apartment to anyone considering a visit to Cyprus. - Mr & Mrs Sinclair-McCall - April 07
