Villa Penelope

The villa was very nice, and the outdoor area was beautiful. The pool was excellent and one of the best parts of our stay. We really enjoyed our time here and had a great holiday. We would happily stay here again and recommend it to others.

The villa was spacious and comfortable. The garden was well kept and the large pool was well maintained . The location was fantastic . Very peaceful, 5 minutes walk from beautiful beaches and 15 min walk to Protaras strip and fig tree bay. The owner was very helpful and the local resident cats were very friendly, loved to be fed each day but never tried to enter the villa.

Nothing. We can’t wait to return.

Great location, lovely pool, close to the beach. Clean and spacious

Nothing comes to mind

Location is pretty good, not too far from Protaras main strip, about 10min walk to the bottom end. Pool is nice, and seems pretty well looked after - pool guy came every few days to clean it out, check chemicals, etc. Pool needs cleaning with net at least once every day and a net is provided - this is because there are lots of flowers and leaves blowing around from the plants/trees/flowers. We swept the patio areas at least 3 times to try and minimise these going into the pool! What we hadn't realised from the photos of the property is that all 3 bedrooms had ensuite bathrooms, which was great for our kids (2 girls and a boy) so they didn't have to share bathrooms!

Villa is looking a bit "tired". Various maintenance issues with shutters that don't fully shut, patio doors that don't lock, one of the bedroom air con units failed during second week of stay meaning my son was cooked for 3 nights until they brought a temporary air con unit for last night. Had a cockroach problem which freaked the kids - to be fair, within a couple of days they'd sent the pest control guy out to spray them, but preventative treatment should have been done earlier according to owner's son. Provision of cutlery was a bit odd - too many forks but barely enough knives and a lot of the glassware and cups were chipped. Kitchen knives were so blunt we struggled to cut lemons and limes with them! The photos are very misleading as there are at least 2 different villas shown against this property - we were in Villa Penelope, which is the one with artificial grass around the pool, has pink flowers. It shows a built in BBQ which is misleading - is isn't functional and couldn't be used or you'd set the hedge alight! Instead, a pretty rubbish free standing small BBQ is provided. Was expecting more refinement for the money, but overall we enjoyed our stay.
