Follow the Sun Hotel Apts. Polis

... is located next to the 'Tombs of the Kings' excavation site on the fringe of the main town. It is right on the beach fifteen minutes away from all the other hotels in the centre of Paphos. Secondly the design of the hotel does reflect ...

We stayed in Polis for the morning and left after a last lunch at one of the restaurants in town. We were sorry to leave Polis, it's a lovely little place, so relaxed and quiet, we got very comfortable there! We headed off down to Paphos and looked around the Fort & the ruins of Old Paphos before watching a stunning sunset over the sea, having dinner in the harbour and heading back to the airport to fly home...

... quite close to it further along. Spent the day here chilling on the beach in the sun & swimming in the Med - what more do you need?! There's a lovely harbour in Latsis with a mix of fishing & pleasure boats. We walked around it in the morning and returned for sunset. There are a number of restaurants along the harbour front with lots of fresh fish options, it's a really nice place to have dinner.

<br>Thursday, July 2, 2009&#8212;Paphos<br>This morning we headed over to the Kato<br>Pafos Archaeological Park and checked out the local ruins. After<br>about forty minutes we were too hot and headed back to the car. We<br>proceeded to drive north to the Baths of Aphrodite and from there we<br>deduced that there would be some beautiful coast line in that area<br>and the quickest way would be to follow the inland roads that cut ...

... for the rental car. He<br>drove us to their main office where I signed a few papers (nobody<br>ever actually checked my license) and I was hand the keys to a car. <br>Its important to note that I have had only twenty minutes experience<br>driving on the left. Its also important to point out that the car<br>was running when I took possession of it. This will be relevant<br>later. <br><br>After saying a short prayer under my<br>breath, I took off ...

... you choose which you want at check in. To me the Thalassa Boutique Hotel is the best on the island. At the western end of the island the splendid Anassa Resort LINK in Latchi a true five star resort. The only hotel left to mention is the Columbia Beach Resort LINK in Pissouri Bay between Paphos and Limassol. There are only two hotels in this bay and only a small village very much away from it all. The hotel has a good Spa centre its altogether a good place for total relaxation

... the town has been kept quite far back from the beach so it's not all hemmed-in with high-rise hotels. It's a nice beach &amp; we settled down on some sun loungers for the day. We had lunch at the beach bar which was pretty awful food (burgers, pizzas - nothing Greek!) and swam in the beautiful sea. It wasn't too crowded but I imagine it gets absolutely heaving in-season, it is a very nice beach.

We set off quite early to drive up to the Kykos Monestary, one of the more famous monestaries high up in the mountains where Archbishop Makarios retired to and is buried (he was the first and fourth president of Cyprus). We took our time driving up, the roads are good but very twisting, and there are some magnificent views that should be stopped at to take in properly. On the way up the mountains we ...

We explored the little town of Polis. It's a sweet place, a tourist town but it wasn't busy &amp; full of people - maybe it was the time of year. The beach isn't great and we didn't stay there long. There are lots of restaurants of various types and budgets. Mariela Apartments suits us down to the ground - I imagine it gets very very busy in-season, but at ...
