Agrotourism is not something you describe but something you experience. Vasilion has been recently skillfully restored to its former glory, with the addition of many luxuries. The result combines the essence of modern living with an atmosphere of tradition, and all this is set in grounds with homegrown vegetables, fruit and herbs. The very special feature of this property is the antiques and the antiquities. Hellenistic remains have been carefully excavated becoming now part of this garden for visitors enjoyment. One of the best natural beaches in Cyprus where tortoises swim and lay their eggs in the sand is only 10 minutes drive. Latchi port with its famed fish taverns is 5 minutes drive, 'the baths of Aphrodite' with its beautiful nature paths is 10 minutes drive. Two golf clubs are near Polis, Tsada Golf Club is 30 minutes drive and the Secret Valley Golf Club is 50 minutes drive. Monasteries and picturesque villages, where you can buy local wine, are within a few minutes drive.

Guest comments
Vasilion reminds us of the phrase, 'something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.' Sarah and Roy Davies.
'Beautiful property, amazing hospitality, we need to visit Vasilion next year.'
The smell of the aromatic herbs, the sound of the water, the colours of the flowers woke up our forgotten senses, we were revived.
