Situated in Kapparis village on the outskirts of the local town of Paralimni, 5 kilometers from the bustling resort of Protaras and just over one kilometer from the nearest beach, this superbly equipped penthouse apartment is ideally located for those who want to escape the crowds and explore at their own pace. Conveniently close to the facilities of a major town and resort you will have lots of things to do.

The apartment itself is one of two top floor penthouses facing the sea. It is located on a modern small development, in a peaceful area, close to all amenities. Outside you’ll enjoy the benefit of a very large veranda with those excellent sea views. Here you can relax in the warmth of the Cypriot sunshine and enjoy the pleasant evenings with some ‘alfresco’ dining. Feel free to cool off in the lovely on site swimming pool, shared between only a handful of apartments, or pop down to the local sandy beaches. Exceptionally comfortable and air conditioned throughout, the apartment is furnished in a modern contemporary style to a very high standard, with lots of extra equipment. Much better than typical hotel apartments, it really is a home away from home. For those of you with children extra thought has gone into the choice of equipment. There is even a DVD player / PlayStation 2 and games to keep them entertained whilst you put your feet up and relax. Also the hi-fi has a iPod input and cable for listening to your favourite music.Two bathrooms and a flexible sleeping layout means that families, couples and groups can benefit from the peaceful setting, nearby activities and nightlife this apartment and area have to offer.

Fireman’s Cove, the best local sandy beach is approximately a 15 minute walk from the apartment (2mins by car) and is great place to sun, swim or snorkle in the clear blue sea, or an ideal starting point for a walk along the coast. The beach at Ayia Triada is also a favourite.

Watch the locals playing backgammon on the street corners, perhaps sample a local brew in a traditional taverna and take a walk around the centre and historic churches.
