The pool is close enough to toss a coin into from the verandah, but we ask that you do not try ! The pool and main rear communal areas are gated / fenced off with railings to retain its private status and access is gained to the gates from the side of our apartment block. The current view on the pool side of the apartment ( ie, from the verandah ) is towards the sea and Famagusta Bay and the ghost town of Famagusta.

However, for guests wishing to have breakfast in the warmth of the early morning sun, just move your loungers to the edge of the verandah and you can enjoy uninterrupted sunshine from dawn to dusk.

There is also a 24 hour bakery, located approx 1km from the apartment. The bakery stocks a good range of essential foods as well as traditional breads and pastries. We have found the bakery very useful, particularly when arriving in the early hours of the morning, for purchases of milk, etc. RESTAURANTS Generally, most restaurants in Cyprus are cheaper than they are in the UK. Cyprus has a wide range of different international cuisines available unlike some other holiday islands you may have sampled, all at reasonable prices.

Cypriot food is at its best in the many genuine tavernas and you’ll be more than pleasantly surprised if you venture into one of these for both food and atmosphere. There is a huge variety of restaurants to suit all tastes and pockets in the tourist areas. We have include
