Lovers Nest Hotel Apts. Polis

... rich history of this Mediterranean island, and is unlike the other traditional hotels. The following day I had a busy schedule of visits to the other hotels in our programme starting with the Annabelle located in central Paphos ...

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...

We stayed local today, but the beach at Polis isn't that great so we scooted down the road to Latsis and the beach there. Latsis (or Latchi) was once a small village by the sea but now it's enveloped in new developments of holiday villas. It's sort of stretched out along the road with a few restaurants and bars n the middle. The beach is nice if you go to the bit behind the restaurants as the main road ...

... across the mountains. And this began Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. Now, if<br>you have read previous entries I'm new to driving on the left. And<br>I'm was new driving around mountains...and on gravel....dirt<br>roads.....and the like. As you will see from the pictures the views<br>were stunning but the journey to cover a mere 20 kilometres took us<br>close to two hours. It was exciting in the end and the views were<br>spectacular.<br>

... thought it was strange that no matter how much<br>I pressed on the gas, the car seemed to have no pick-up. It just<br>chugged along slowly. It was after about three minutes I looked down<br>and realised the parking brake was on. Having grown up in the<br>midwest where hills are not common and therefore using a parking<br>brake is also not common, this is not entirely ridiculous. <br><br>We had the directions for the hotel but<br>it took us a little ...

Having a car we decided to take ourselves off to spend the day at Coral Beach which, we'd heard, was one of the nicest in Cyprus. It's about half-way between Polis &amp; Paphos and took about 45 minutes to drive to. The town wasn't particularly nice, a bit like Blackpool, and we were glad we had decided to stay in Polis (we had been looking at hotels in Coral Beach but they were quite expensive ...

... stopped at an enclosure accomodating some Mouflons - a sheep-goat animal that is apparently unique to Cyprus. They are very shy but we spotted some after a while. We arrived at Kykos for lunch &amp; had a delicious good-value meal at the cafeteria. This place is set up to process coach-loads of tourists. A benefit of coming off-season, there weren't any! There were quite a few people but not a ...

... time of year it had a handful of 'mature' guests who go at the same time every year, year after year. The owner is very nice &amp; welcoming &amp; is full of info. There's a pool, a bar, we have a balcony with a view and a fridge for the gin &amp; tonic - what more do we need?! There's a supermarket close by and it takes 5-10mins to walk into the town centre.

... really feels like a real holiday, not to bother cook, or clean.<br><br><br><br>I booked 4 months ahead a nice room at the Mill Hotel which is the best hotel in Kakopetria &#8211; a beautiful village that keeps its tradition. This beautiful village is about half an hour drive from the highest peak of the Troodos mountains.<br><br><br><br>The name of the village in Greek ...
