Insider info needed on Paphos?! ;o)

I%26#39;m planning on treating my parnets (60yrs), brother (35yrs) and boyfriend (40yrs)break in paphos in mid July and would like a 3 bed villa (preferably with own pool)

BUT... I%26#39;ve never been to paphos or cyprus before - where would be good to stay - looking to be close to beach / sea but near enough to walk to bars %26amp; resturants to when we need a bit of a break from the parents... not too commercialised though XXX

THANKS XXX

Hi

Before we lived here we always booked through www.rent-villas-paphos.co.uk. Its run by a very helpful guy called Steven.

I%26#39;d suggest almost anywhere in Kato Paphos would fit your bill. There%26#39;s an area called Universal where there are a load of villas and apartments that are an OK walk to the sea and an OK walk into the middle of Kato Paphos to eat.

We stayed in a three bedroom apartment called Marina Complex - it was excellent!

Best

Hi Mike,

sorry to gatecrash the thread but noticed you have stayed at the Marina Complex in Universal area. I have rented an apartment here for June. Can you give me some info on complex please?

Thanks

Hi Mike. Thanks for reply. I have little info on complex. Is it near Pambis resaurant? Is the complex quiet and any good? Any info of the surrounding arae is appreciated

Thanks

I can also recommend the link that Mike has provided.

We stayed in one of the apartments managed by Steve and his team and we couldn%26#39;t have asked for better service.

They have a pretty good selection of apartments and villas in and around Paphos.

As well as the Universal Area, the Queens Gardens complex is in a very good location.

Hi, I was wondering if the Queens Gardens apartments in Kato Paphos are set well back from the main road, are they in a quiet area and is there lots of building work going on? Can you walk down to the main centre quite easily i.e. Bar Street etc.Do we need to be taking taxis?

Thanks

Hi Madgolfer100

I have gone past the complex your referring to and it is a quiet area, not to far walking distance to the harbour, Pambis Restaurant I have been reliable been informed is very nice and reasonable, there is another not far from the complex called Exo Vissi

Kathleen - the Queens Gardens complex is right on the main road quite close to the main set of traffic lights and next to the large area of wasteland where they put the fairground in high season. I haven%26#39;t been on the complex itself so I can%26#39;t say whether you hear any noise.

It is ideally located for the Tombs of the Kings Road and for the harbour area and I wouldn%26#39;t imagine having to use any public transport there at all because both areas are within comfortable walking distance.

Thanks for your reply, look forward to our holiday, sounds good
