In the quiet village of Xylofagou, just a ten-minute drive from the vibrance of Ayia Napa, this modern villa waits to welcome you home. With a neutral palette throughout, the whole space feels open and inviting from the moment you step foot inside. A sleek kitchen promises to test the culinary skills of the nominated cook – rustle up a tasty treat and head out onto your sunny terrace to enjoy your food alfresco. Countless hours could be spent in this outdoor space, with the pool taking centre stage and enticing you in for a refreshing dip and some respite from the Cypriot heat. After a little time in the water, climb out and head to the sun lounger to dry off, all you need is a good book and time will slip by effortlessly.

As day turns to night and bedtime calls, head to your comfortable bedroom and climb under the crisp white sheets. We love the vaulted ceilings in two of the bedrooms, giving such a sense of space to the already generous rooms. As the first rays of sun light up your room in the mornings, you’ll find yourself eager to jump out of bed and get the day underway. Ten minutes in the car, and you’ll find yourself in Ayia Napa, with a trip to the glistening azure waters and golden sands of Nissi Beach a must. With the ocean breeze filling your lungs with fresh air, you’ll feel completely revived and content.
