Cyprus is an island full of wonderful experiences just waiting to be enjoyed. Set deep in the eastern reaches of the Mediterranean Sea, Cyprus is an island of huge contrasts. Sun kissed shores rise up to snow-capped mountains, with wild and rolling countryside in between. Deep-rooted traditions sit alongside cosmopolitan resorts that offer many attractions to the discerning visitor, and, of course, near-guaranteed sunshine.
The beautiful clear seas are a paradise for swimmers and divers, and the abundant flora and fauna make for a paradise for walkers and naturalists. A rich and vibrant history has left Cyprus with many archaeological treasures, with traces of Roman, Byzantine and Ancient Greek times evident across the island. There are also important examples of religious monuments, such as the incredible remains of a fourth-century, seven-aisled basilica, Khrysopolitissa, said to have been built by St Paul himself.
The leisurely pace, genuine locals, always ready with a smile and a wave, and the diverse range of attractions on offer make Cyprus an understandably popular destination.
The independence and freedom offered by a Cyprus villa rental allows you to enjoy this beautiful island to the full. Away from the confines of a hotel's limiting schedule, you can relax at your own pace, with space to really enjoy your holiday. Eating when you like and having your own living area and pool can really turn your holiday from being a much-needed getaway to a relaxing break you won't forget... or want to return from!
