Cracking Location

Reisezeitraum: August 2011
My wife and I had a short break in Cyprus in August 2011 which, with hindsight, was probably not the best time of year for northerners more used to the wind and rain of Yorkshire; it was so hot! But that didn't matter if at the end of the day you could sit out on a balcony supping a nice cold beer and watch the world go by. Marc's apartment was fantastic and had a/c in the bedroom to deal with the warm nights to which we were not accustomed. Everthing that you could ever need was catered for in the apartment. Because we were only there for a short break we ate out every night and didn't need to use the kitchen but had we needed to, everything was there right down to a garlic crusher. The apartment is large, bright and tastefully furnished with personal items Marc has collected from around the world making it a real 'home from home'. The location of the apartment was excellent - just a 5 minute stroll to the main road and the tourist strip with an array of bars and places to eat. That said, the road on which the apartment was situated was so peaceful you would never believe that the nightlife was only a block away. Like most places in Europe that have embraced the Euro, Cyprus is not as cheap as it once was and eating out can be a little pricey so do check the menus displayed outside the bars etc. This is exacerbated by poor exchange rates at the moment. Marc recommends 'The Woodman' and I would concur. It is a sports bar that does typical pub grub and while only slightly more expensive than a similar pub in the UK, it is good hearty grub in nice surroundings. Equally, Pizza Hut (just around the corner) had an 'all you can eat' promotion on during our stay and a very reasonable price. For food shopping, there is a hypermarket (Papa's) just around the corner which stocks just about everything one would need including imported items from the UK under the 'Waitrose' branding. There is also a lovely in-store bakery with fantastic cakes and pastries. Would I stay in Marc's apartment if I ever went to Limassol again? Absolutely. Would I recommend this apartment to others? You bet. Thank you Marc, your apartment is lovely and we had a smashing time.
