The Famagusta region


Since Turkish forces occupied the northern part of Cyprus in 1974, most of the Famagusta region has been located north of the UN Buffer Zone. In fact, Famagusta town, once a thriving resort, now lies as a ghost town as negotiations continue between the Greeks and Turks over the future of the north (well worth a tourist visit).
The region situated south of the border, however, has become a bustling tourist destination, popular for its active nightlife, golden beaches and excellent watersports facilities.
In recent years, resorts such as Ayia Napa and Protaras have been transformed from sleepy harbour towns into some of the Mediterranean’s most popular holiday spots, with superb beaches, clear seas and a vast choice of bars and nightlife.
Protaras is a modern resort that stretches over 16 kilometres of coastline and offers splendid Blue Flag beaches as well as watersport and scuba diving facilities (the famous Fig Tree Bay is located here). Pernera is smaller and quieter than Protaras and there's a very tranquil side to the region, too, namely Cape Greko which has a rugged coastline and some beautiful coves. The area adjoins a National Forest Park, an area of great natural beauty, a world away from the busier resorts.
Cyprus enjoys sunny skies and low humidity almost year round. The Pernera area has long dry summers and mild winters. Summer is a time of high temperatures with cloudless skies, but the sea breeze creates a pleasant climate along the coast.
The Protaras / Pernera area
Pernera is quieter than Protaras with many charming tavernas, bars, restaurants and shops. There is certainly enough for the family, friends and couples to do if you want to combine the beach and pool with a reasonably quiet and relaxing holiday. Pernera has some fantastic restaurants - lots to choose from and many bars.
Pernera beach has been awarded with the Blue Flag for its clean and safe waters. You will find all kinds of watersport facilities such as wind-surfing, water skiing, para sailing, canoe and paddle boats as well as speed boat rentals. The sandy coves around Pernera are perfect for snorkeling and scuba diving and really safe for children due to the shallow and clear waters.
If you’re looking for something a little livelier than Pernera; then Protaras, with its vibrant nightlife and famous Fig Tree Bay, is 3km away. A thriving coastline resort with all manner of restaurants, bars, cafés, tourist shops, watersports, excursions and entertainment to keep you and your family busy.
The popular and lively resort of Ayia Napa is only 10km away. There you can dance the night away in the many clubs and bars of this "Happening" resort!!

Guestbook for Aztec Villa
"Aztec Villa is a perfect home from home. A great deal of thought and care has gone into providing everything you could possible need on a Villa holiday. Excellent for children, lots of indoor and outdoor toys available every possible nursery requirement is also provided from highchairs to strollers. Nice quiet location but everything is within easy reach either in Pernera or Protaras. Information booklet provided, covers just about everything you could ever need to ask and all the maintenance staff are very friendly and helpful. Pool was perfect for baby and we didn’t need it heated either!!" - Jacqui Martina, 7-21 June 2011.
"We had a lovely stay, superb villa (we have the same taste Tracy!), great weather, nice resort. We enjoyed the food in Paralimni, the beaches in Protaras, the shops in Agia Napa and the wonderful kids disco in Pernera. To be short, superb two weeks! We discovered this part of Cyprus for the first time and we will return. Many thanks to Tracy (for organising it all), Dan (pool maintenance and the Leon!) and Margaret (swift help day and night!)". Alexandrea & Family - 14th May 2011.
The most gorgeous perfect place to holiday, the villa is just first class – very welcoming and decorated to a very high standard – with more facilities than we have at home!! In my opinion the villa is situated in the most perfect position within the complex as it is on a corner so it is very quiet and right by the path to the beach. We enjoyed every minute from sitting by the pool in the evening whilst the kids swam to bathing in the luscious sandy shallow bays!! The perfect way to end the day was to either enjoy a local Greek restaurant with such friendly staff or to sip a cocktail looking out over the beach. The whole holiday ran so smoothly from start to finish as Tracy is so helpful and efficient there was never a moment that we felt that we weren’t informed about any step of our holiday including the contacts in Pernera who would pop round during our holiday to see if we were ok. We would highly recommend Aztec Villa to all our friends and family and will hopefully be booking for next year ourselves. Thank you Tracy for such a great place!!!!! Mark & Milly Oliver, 27 July 2010.
We booked the villa as we have such busy lives we never get any time together as a family, the villa felt like home as soon as you crossed the threshold, we played volleyball in the pool together plus other pool games, the film collection in the lounge was very handy and we enjoyed watching a couple of the films together, we also played a couple of very competitive games of the monopoly we found in the drawer. The villa was well situated for the beach and water sports also eating out and getting transport for outings. We came back having enjoyed family time away from the villa but more importantly the small touches as mentioned above that were supplied at the villa enabled us to have our own family time also. 10th July 2010, The Keeling Family.
!!!!!!!****NOTE FROM OUR VOLCANIC ERUPTION REFUGEE****!!!!!!!
"We've just returned from Aztec Villa in Pernera, Cyrpus, which we visited because of the recommendations we read. We have a 4 year old girl and 7 year old boy and I can't recommend the place highly enough. The villa itself is very comfortable and tastefully decorated, plus good entertainment for the kids: toys for the pool/beach, playstation, DVDs ... in other words, everything that you need to keep everyone happy. Tracy, who owns the villa, was very helpful indeed. We found ourselves stranded out there when the Icelandic volcano erupted, unable to get a flight. Tracy immediately put my mind at ease by letting us stay on - at no extra cost - until we managed to get a flight home. In the end we had an extra 10 days there, on top of the 10 days we had originally booked. I felt we were really well supported and the whole situation (which could have easily been a nightmare) turned into a very positive experience for the whole family". Jo, Ian, Alexander & Katherine, Apr 10.
"We cannot praise Aztec Villa enough, five star luxury. The welcome pack was great everything we needed for the first 24hrs, the villa itself beautiful and the local areas perfect for a family with small children. Perfect weather, beach and warm sea – what more could you want". Ian, Hilary and family, Oct 09.
"We were looking for a holiday home to spend our first family holiday abroad and by luck we found Aztec Villa... there was no looking back as nothing else compared! From the moment we made contact with Tracy we were reassured we had made the right choice. Nothing was forgotten in the comprehensive guide provided, We felt we knew the place before we had arrived. Great villa in a good location. Thanks for a lovely holiday and first taste of holidaying abroad with a family in tow". Jan & family, Sept 09.
"Our stay in the villa was wonderful and the whole family had a brilliant time. My granddaughter spent many hours in the pool and loved every minute. The villa was well equipped with everything you needed for a relaxing holiday. I would recommend the villa to anyone who loves Cyprus it is in an ideal location with several beaches nearby and local buses only a 5 minute walk away to get to Flamingo Bay, Fig Tree Bay or Nissi Beach in Ayia Napa. We truly had a lovely time and will be using the villa again". Ena and family, August 2009.
"The villa is located in the best plot on the development with partial sea views, access via footpath to the beach and close to all local amenities. A great home from home feel. The pool was great. The kids loved it and really benefitted from heating – no chest infections (the first ever when on holiday) Many thanks for allowing us to stay in your home". 24th June 09 Paul, Leatherhead.
"Just spent the week at your fantastic villa Tracy. All the other Testimonials are spot on. The place is lovely; all that you describe is justified. Not one thing was missing and everything was in good, clean working order. Just a lovely place to spend a lazy week (without the kids on this occasion) to recharge the batteries. All the restaurants you recommended were superb with great service and food. THANK YOU". 22nd May 09 John, Janice, Keith & Caroline, Lee-on-Solent
"Aztec Villa is perfect for a relaxing family holiday. It’s in a fantastic location near all the local shops and restaurants. The villa is so well equipped. Tracy has thought of everything to make it a home from home experience. We would highly recommend Aztec Villa." 29th April 09, Nikki, Twickenham.
"Superb villa and gardens very clean fantastically equipped and wonderful location for beach and bars. Happy days. WHY DID I COME HOME !!!!!" 15th April 09, Mark & Heather, Bristol.
"Just to quickly let you know, we all had an amazing time and the villa was lovely – we didn’t want to leave. Again, thanks for all your help from start to finish – the service and villa was the best I have ever experienced. I will complete your questionnaire over the next few days". 9th Nov 08, Marie, Bracknell.
"We can not fault any aspect of our holiday. Your level of communication during the booking process was great and the way in which you accommodated our needs/requests was so refreshing – it’s very rare to get that sort of treatment these days and, as such, it’s been a pleasure ‘doing business’ with you! Your villa is beautiful, very well equipped and in an excellent location. All the ‘added extras’, like the huge range of pool/beach toys, gave us two very happy toddlers and when they’re happy, we’re happy. What more could we have asked for? We will definitely be going back! Thank you". 29th Sept 08, Catherine, Stoke Gifford, South Glos.
"We have recently returned from a weeks holiday in Cyprus with our 10 month old daughter. The villa itself is lovely, the furnishings are modern and it is very well equipped. The owner has included lots of thoughtful extras such as a welcome pack, beach towels (which saves on suitcase space!), and a cool box to take to the beach. I was a little apprehensive about holidaying abroad with a baby but the villa fully caters for children of all ages. For babies, there is a cot, high chair & stair gate and the Playstation, DVD selection and pool toys provide plently of entertainment for older children. The private swimming pool is excellent fun for all ages & a necessity to escape the Cypriot heat! We had a fantastic holiday at Aztec Villa and would definitely return. The whole 'package' Tracy provides has been excellent, not only the villa but her help with the booking & communication emails. Thanks Tracy!" August 08 - Vivienne - Redditch.
