About this property

Traditional Stone House, Garden Terrace Spectacular Views Mountains & Coastline

If you would like to experience a fast disappearing way of life, then this is the place to stay. The traditional village of Kritou Tera, tucked away from the usual tourist trail, yet with easy access to both mountains and beaches, can provide an insight into traditional Cypriot culture. The property is located on the edge of this compact village close to the Akamas National Park, with delightful views over sea and mountains. Situated at 500 metres above sea level, the climate is perfect in the hot summer months. The Cyprus Environment Centre is housed in the old village school indicating the value of this location for anyone interested in the natural environment and the habitat of the flora and fauna. Many organised walking and bird watching holidays are based in the Akamas, with it's variety of coastal paths or high level walks, all with spectacular views. Excellent base for mountain biking in Akamas or the Troodos Mountains. The recently refurbished Droushia Heights Hotel in the neighbouring village, provides an amazing infinity pool which is open to the public all day, if guests purchase drinks, snacks or meals there. So, the Jacaranda is a perfect location for either an energetic or restful break.

Sep 18, away from it all !!
We had a lovely three week stay and can not thank Mark and Agnes who live opposite enough for all their help, support and wonderful company. Our thanks to Ellen, and to John and his team who were available on site when needed. Kind regards, Danny & Anne

Away from it all above the sea
Very pleasant stay despite the noisy dogs in the house opposite. We much preferred the western side of the island (and the mountain interior) to the over-developed eastern end.

Jacaranda more than came up to our expectations.It was exactly what it said on the label.
We were more than happy and very comfortable in Jacaranda. The position and views were wonderful. Eating out on the patios in complete privacy in a quiet and relaxed atmosphere made for a very relaxing holiday. There are so many places of interest within a short driving distance. A car is an absolute must as the village is isolated and I never noticed a bus service. Everything we needed was available in the house. We liked it so much that we hope to make a return visit next year.

Second visit
We had such a great time last year that we booked again. The house is as quirky and lovely as we remembered, a great base to enjoy a lovely peaceful and relaxing holiday. I'm sure we will return !!

Relaxing stay in a traditional Cypriot village
The property has all the facilities we needed. The neighbours across the road were very welcoming and made some good suggestions about places to visit. We came mainly for the wild flowers and the area is certainly a hot spot for orchids.

About the host

Hosted by Ellen Casson

Host profile image
My husband and I and our family lived and worked for many years in Cyprus, so we know the island very well. We eventually decided to buy a small holiday property and realised it would have to be in the Akamas area, as it's the most beautiful and unspoilt part of the island. We purchased the house in 2002 and used it extensively as a bolt-hole for weekends, as well as for longer holidays. Although we are now retired and living in France, we regularly revisit Cyprus as we have friends in the village and miss the friendliness of the local people.

Why they chose this property

Having discovered this part of the island many years earlier, we returned two or three times a year from our home near Larnaca, in order to camp by the beach in Polis Chrysochou. There was no contest about location once we had decided to buy a property of our own. We love the simple lifestyle and quiet location well away from the tourist areas and concrete jungle that is now Pahos; not to mention some wonderful restaurants in the area. A traditional village house with it's quirky features was more attractive to us than a modern villa with a pool. The beaches are near at hand! It provided sheer escapism from our busy lifestyle!

What makes this property unique

Our village of Kritou Tera is located in a stunning position overlooking Polis, with easy access to Polis, Latchi and Paphos, as well as the beaches and mountains. We love visiting the beaches but didn't want to live near them and their inherent bustle, potential development and traffic. Kritou Tera is a perfect location in which to enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside, observe (and even get involved in) the local way of life and be surrounded by wonderful walking and cycling country with fabulous views.
The panoramic views from our terrace, veranda and balcony are simply outstanding, as you will gather when reading our reviews.
