Home description
Villa Lucele is set in a quiet residential area in the exclusive Poseidon Village. Just 5 minutes walk to nearest shops, restaurants and beach. From here you can continue your walk along a coastal path to take in the wave kissed coastline, the crystal clear waters, the isolated rock formations, the sea caves and arches that give you a flavour of the real Cyprus.
From this location, you decide how much relaxation or activity you want from your holiday. You could spend the holiday at the Villa, cooking on the gas barbecue, eating al fresco on the outdoor dining furniture overlooking the private pool. But then it would be a shame to miss out on the dining facilities just minutes away on the High Street, try the local specialties and you will delight the taste buds as well as your wallet.
Relax on the Sunbeds? Cool off in the pool? Be beaten by the kids on the PlayStation? Discover the local beaches and coves?
For a livelier day, Ayia Napa is just 15 minutes drive away and Protaras just 10 minutes. Enjoy the selection of water sports available, or hire a boat to go fishing. In the evening you will be spoiled for choice by the range of restaurants, bars and clubs.
With a PS2 Play Station in the bedroom to occupy the children whilst you recover from the excursions of the day, don't forget to pack a few games although there is a wide selection of games at Villa lucele. Bring your ipod to enjoy your favourite sounds from the top quality BOSE speaker sound docking station. Pack a few of your favourite DVDs for the late evenings as well perhaps?
Why not play a round of golf at the Aphrodite Hills golf course which is a magnificent championship course carved out of carob and olive tree groves overlooking the Mediterranean. The spectacular par three 7th plays steeply downhill with a 30m drop across a canyon to a large undulating green nestling within a grove of olive trees.
Villa Lucele has a truly homely feel about it, with its white leather sofas, oak wood furnishings, ornaments, pictures on the walls and blinds to all windows and doors.
The Cypriot people are naturally very friendly, welcoming and helpful. They have a strong tradition for family life so children are made to feel welcome in most restaurants. English is spoken by most Cypriots.

The Famagusta District
About Famagusta: The Famagusta District, on the island's east coast, was once the main port of Cyprus and a popular resort. After the Turkish invasion the areas of Ayia Napa and Protaras were redeveloped to become one of the largest resort areas on the island with many hotels, shops, tavernas, discos and bars.
The town of Paralimni continues to grow in popularity and it gives easy access to some of the best beaches on the island. The resort of Protaras with Fig Tree Bay at its heart is always popular for holidays. The smaller resort of Penera is always a favourite for families and the upcoming star is the area of Kapparis, with its sandy beaches and own distinct area of tavernas and bars springing up, this promises to be a year round destination.
The villages slightly in land offer good value as they are only a ten minute drive from the coast. Frenaros and Dyrenia offer a more traditional way of life yet they are within very easy reach of the larger town of Paralimni. Move further south and you are in the better known resorts of Agia Napa, with its magnificent Nissi Beach and vibrant nightlife.
Away from the main tourist areas, many ex-pats live in the villages and towns only a short drive from the sandy coastline and far from going to sleep in the winter these areas offer a year round lifestyle.
About Paralimni: The largest town in the eastern southern fringe of Cyprus, it has taken over as the administration centre for the Famagusta region. There is nothing you can't find here, modern shops and offices stand beside traditional coffee shops and old stores, you will find small roads that are towered over by old Venetian style houses, old women still wearing the traditional black garb and the men sitting outside the local coffee shops playing back gammon while the younger generation goes by in the latest fashions.
Beautifully constructed modern day churches overlook the old and crumbling architecture of the older worshiping grounds that house fading mosaics, a drink of coffee in a modern cafe whilst listening to the afternoon church service and the harmonious church bells as they ring out across the old square and warm smiles will greet you everywhere.
Paralimni has grown over the recent years and is now a location that offers year around living, modern shops radiate out from the village square, offering residents a wide choice for shopping, there is even a Marks & Spencers here!
About Agia Napa: Much has been written about this resort and in the past it has suffered from a bad press, the truth is that this once small sleepy fishing village has grown into a great family resort area with lots of activities and entertainments for all the family, stunning new hotels and simply magnificent beaches is what makes visitors return year after year. Just a short drive away from the centre and you reach the peace and tranquillity that is Cape Greco, the eastern most point of Cyprus, where the whole area is protected and you feel you are in another world.
In the centre of Agia Napa older properties are being renovated and offered for sale at reasonably good prices that appeal to the buy to let investor. Newer developments within the resort are rare as most of the land has been used up. Going west out of Agia Napa will bring you to the area of Agia Thekla where extensive development has taken place along the coast. At this time this area is lacking in amenities of any sort and you would need to travel to the nearby villages to get even the most basic of provisions.
Protaras / Poseidon Villas Complex area
About Protaras: Looked over by green rolling hills and the church of Profitis Elias that stands on a hill over 100meters high, the small town of Protaras has a magic all of it's own. Golden sand and sparkling blue waters make for some of the most beautiful beaches on the island.
You can find rugged cliffs standing high over small, sandy coves and local fish tavernas serving fresh fish while you take in the wonderful scenery. A short drive inland will lead you to the scenic "Valley of the Windmills" where what seems like hundreds of rotating fan blades help to pump the water that irrigates this fertile land. The roads in Protaras are of an excellent standard constructed with large pedestrian and cycle routes at the sides.The entire length of the main coastal road in Protaras which spans from Paralimni via Protaras and into Ayia Napa (about 15km) is lined with a large pedestrian route that is ideal for walkers and bikers.
For those of you that prefer being closer to nature, there is a wooden path that can be followed around the coast, across rocky coves and secluded beaches where you will find small churches perched high on the rocky landscape overlooking the sea..
About Kapparis: Unspoilt, secluded sandy coves where you can have the beach to yourself all day long and local hospitality from the numerous tavernas are what you will find in Kapparis. A well kept secret that is just now starting to be discovered. And for those who want a busier time then the town of Paralimni is just a few minutes drive away and the resorts of Protaras and Agia Napa only 10 and 15 minutes drive away.
New bars and restaurants are being established on the main Kapparis road that leads to Famagusta providing visitors to the area all amenities without having to go to the neighbouring areas.
The Cypriot people are naturally very friendly, welcoming and helpful. They have a strong tradition for family life so children are made to feel welcome in most restaurants. English is spoken by most Cypriots.
How to get there
Direct flights to Cyprus are available from a number of UK airports with additional budget airlines adding routes from March 2009. This will increase competition which, with landing fees at Larnaca airport reducing substantially this year will provide extra value.
Whilst Cyprus has two international airports with Paphos to the west of the island, Larnaca is the airport of choice when visiting the Famagusta area. A new terminal is due to open later in 2009, which demonstrates the increasing popularity of Cyprus as a holiday destination. This is 65 kms from the villa or about 45 minutes to drive.
Regular schedule flights to Larnaca are operated by British Airways (www.britishairways.com). We can supply details of other airlines upon request.
Hiring a car is recommended (preferably one with air conditioning), if you wish to tour the island and sample all that it has to offer. There is a wide choice available based at the airport. Oh and there is no need to worry, we will provide you with a map and clear directions from the airport. You just need to remember to pack it! Remember too that they drive on the left the same as in the UK and that road signs are also in English.
We can also arrange a meet and greet service, where you will be driven to and from the airport and your chosen Villa, where your hire car will be waiting.
You can also arrange to hire a car in Kapparis just for selected days, though in the season, this is best done in advance.
Alternatively, you can just use taxis to get from and to the airport. After all, with your own pool and being within walking distance of the beach, shops, restaurants and bars a relaxing holiday in the sun would tick the boxes of many a discerning holidaymaker.
Return cost of taxi between Larnaca airport & Villa is around 120 euro for up to 3 people, with each extra passenger charged at 30 euros.
There is a bus service between Kapparis and Ayia Napa that runs every 20 minutes from April through to September.
