'Thanks you very much for letting us use your apartment for our holiday, we had a lovely time. Your apartment is great and must be the best placed on the site. Mel was a terrific help making everything run smoothly even our collection when the flight was delayed 4 hrs. We managed to see the sights, Salamis, the Monastry, Herallion Castle and Kyrenia and visit quite a few beaches including a beautiful beach along the pan handle all to ourselves. All the locals were friendly and welcoming. We ate at the 3 restaurants within walking distance as well as others and would recommend all of them. We would love to come back and will probably contact you next year to see if you have availability. Best wishes, Sue and John
