Home description
Ampeli Villa ("Vineyard Villa") is located just two minutes' walk from the beach and resort centre. In the heart of Cyprus's vine-growing district, Pissouri Bay is a quiet, friendly and traditional seaside resort that has escaped the attentions of mass tourism. This new well-appointed villa with 9 m × 4 m private pool and attractive gardens is furnished to a high standard in a contemporary style. There are sea views, as the villa is only 200 metres from the beach, with open farmland between the villa and the Mediterranean. The garden benefits from a regular sea breeze, and the villa has air conditioning. Suitable for couples or families, the villa provides a luxurious and comfortable home-from-home, and a convenient base for those who wish to explore the island further.

The Limassol District
Pissouri Bay is mid-way between Paphos and Limassol, and a 25-minute drive from each. These larger towns have a wealth of historical sites, good shopping and activity centres, including water parks and go-karting. For keen golfers, there are two championship golf courses within a scenic coastal 15-minute drive: Aphrodite Hills and Secret Valley. A similar distance away, the Roman amphitheatre and mosaics at Kourion are well worth a visit. On some evenings there are entertainments here such as music concerts and Shakespeare plays. Petra Tou Romiou, also known as Aphrodite's Birth Place, is a mere 10-minute drive. In summer, it is pleasant to drive into the cool of the Troodos mountains where you can walk among pine forests to view streams and waterfalls, and sample fresh local trout cooked over charcoal.
Pissouri / Pissouri Bay area
Pissouri Bay, although small, has an amazing range of places to eat and styles of cuisine. It is possible to stay for a fortnight and never eat in the same place twice! There are a number of establishments catering for tourists, with a dive centre, kite surfing shop, mini markets, a sports bar, car hire shops, a travel agency and a bank (with ATM), but Pissouri Bay is frequented by Cypriots too. The Vineleaf Tavern is well-known in Cyprus for its Fish Meze, and features 'Cyprus Night' music and dancing each Friday throughout the summer. Nearby Pissouri Village is the sister settlement to Pissouri Bay, and a steep 5-minute uphill climb away by car! Larger than Pissouri Bay, it has a wider range of amenities and more restaurants. At the village centre is a cobbled pedestrian square, which also has Wednesday 'Cyprus Night' entertainment where tourists mix with locals in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. There is also a modern amphitheatre, hosting open-air entertainments on balmy summer evenings.
