Our townhouse provides the ideal setting for a relaxing family holiday with amenities very close at hand.
The house is situated in the much sort after Regina Gardens complex. It sits to the edge of the pool and has a shaded garden from which the pool can be easily observed. There are sunbeds, a large table and 4 chairs and a BBQ in the garden (coals are available in the cupboard under the stairs). There are a further 3 pools on the complex, one of which is a children's pool, all of which can be used by residents.
There is a kiosk directly outside the front of the complex and a snack bar directly outside the back.
The house consists of open plan living room, dining area and kitchen with air conditioning and fans. One of the two settees can be pulled out to use as a sofa bed. There is complementary Wifi, British TV and a huge selection of films via a Mag, a DVD player, CD player, and an Xbox 360. The lounge cupboard contains a large selection of books including lots of information about Cyprus.

Each bedroom has aircon (on a timer) as well as room and ceiling fans, as does the living area.
The bathroom has a shower over a bath as well as sink unit and toilet. The shower is operated by a pump which means that it is powerful, and there is both solar and immersion heating for water.

The Tomb of the Kings area is a bustling but family orientated part of Paphos with a huge selection of bars and restaurants within easy walking distance (10 minutes walk). There is also a bar which serves food and stays open late on the actual complex. The nearest supermarket is 7 minutes walk. Whilst the nearest beach is just 9 minutes walk. There are a selection of other reachable beaches, plus a small waterpark in the nearby King Evelathon hotel to visit.
Paphos has a guaranteed climate for at least 9 months of the year. We have never experienced rain in the Summer months, and have walked on the beach in T-shirts and shorts on New Year's Day.
There are several beaches to choose from such as Kato Paphos, Coral Bay, Lighthouse beach, Sandy beach and Venus beach. There are many spectacular churches and monasteries which you can visit. There are also archaeological sites in abundance including the Tomb of the Kings, and the spectacular Kurion. There are many wineries which do tastings and tours and the well- known Aphrodite's birthplace.
Just down a small hill from the complex is the Tomb of the Kings Avenue which runs from one end of Paphos to the other and is serviced by frequent buses. Travel to the left all the way past the modern Kings shopping mall, onto Paphos harbour with its array of restaurants, bar street for later nights out, and Paphos fort. Travel in the opposite direction to the resort of Coral Bay with its huge sandy beach. Bus fares are currently 1.50 Euro per journey of any distance.
Other local attractions include watersports, the bird centre, Paphos Zoo, waterparks, Segway tours, Escape rooms, Footgolf, Pitch and Put and well as a variety of local markets. There is plenty to see and do.
For golfing enthusiasts there are at least 3 courses that can be accessed: Minith Hills, Secret Valley and Aphrodite Hills.
For walkers, hikers, cyclists there are safe recognised routes along the beach front and uptowards the Akamas Peninsula and the Troodos Mountains (which are ideal for Winter skiing).
Trips can easily be booked along the Tomb of the Kings road, and cars can be hired relatively cheaply.
The complex is 20 minutes drive from Paphos airport. A taxi fare is generally about 25 Euros. EasyJet, Ryanair, Tui and Jet2 all fly into there. It is also possible to fly into Limassol and travel to the house.
