Property location and the surrounding area

Cyprus is described as an all year round resort and this applies to Larnaca as it has a hot summer season with over 300 days of sunshine and even in winter you can expect 5-6 hours of sunshine a day.

Larnaca is a cosmopolitan city with a wide variety of activities. It has extensive shopping facilities along with an excellent sea frontlined with palm trees and a sandy beach. This ia also a marina on the sea front with some fantastic cafes, bars and restaurants. There is even a Starbucks on the sea front!

The beaches

There are many beaches around Larnaca from sandy beaches to rocky ones. There is the Phinikoudes beach which is situated on the promenade at Larnaca which has a blue flag status.

Then there is McKenzie Beach just a few miles away from Larnaca centre another sandy beach with blue flag status, also has a line of cafe bars and restaurants, along with ample car parking.

Faros beach in Pervolia is a shingle beach in a rural setting. Dhekelia beach is a mix of sand and shingle. Around 30 mins away in Nissi Beach just outside Ayia Napa, a lovely sandy beach with shallow waters. You can see pictures of most of these beaches on our gallery page.

Other areas

We also recommend a visit to the village of Pyla which is about 15 minutes away from Tersefanou. This is one of the few places that remains as it was before the Turkish invasion with Greek Cypriots living side by side with Turk Cypriots. From just behind the village you can cross the green line and go over the border to northern Cyprus (you'll need your passport).

If you get stuck for refreshments in Pyla then we can recommend the Village Taverna in Pyla where you'll receive a warm and friendly welcome from Theo and Denise and a great menu with home made cooking at a very reasonale price.

You can also travel to Ayia Napa the party capital of Cyprus in about 30 Mins. You are also less than an hour away from Limassol and less than 90 mins from Paphos.

Whilst in Cyprus you must visit the Troodos mountains, again less then an hours drive with truly breathtaking views from the summit.
