Four-bedroom Villa Fotios is a modern, family-friendly villa in the popular resort town of Protaras on Cyprus’s eastern coast. This beautiful part of the island flaunts photo-worthy beaches and plenty of things to see and do, including top-notch snorkelling, diving and Hellenistic tombs. The villa is only a two-minute drive from the resort centre, so it’s fantastically placed to explore this charming local area. The best of both worlds – it’s also set in a quiet hillside spot, with fabulous sea views. Inside, the villa is spacious, and has everything you’d need for a comfortable self-catering stay. This includes an open-plan living room, dining area and fully-equipped kitchen. Kick back on the comfy sofas after an action-packed day and watch the widescreen television with SKY and a DVD player. There’s also a breakfast bar, microwave and espresso coffee machine, as well as dining table that seats six. Sleeping up to eight, it’s perfect for family groups looking to enjoy a relaxing holiday. There’s one double bedroom with a shower room on the ground floor – ideal for those with limited mobility or who want some extra privacy – and the other three bedrooms and family bathroom are on the first floor. There’s a master bedroom with an en-suite, a double bedroom and a bunk-bed bedroom. All rooms are bright and welcoming and have plenty of storage space. Rooms are decorate traditionally Greek in style white whitewashed walls and charming bright-blue window shutters. Outside in the garden, you’ll find the private pool looking out towards the sea, as well as a shaded alfresco dining area, barbeque and sun loungers. The garden is dotted fruit trees, and is designed to be private so you can sunbathe in peace. When you’re not dipping your toes in the pool, you can walk to Protaras Beach where there are soft sands and opportunities to take part in watersports.

It boasts a blanket of sandy beaches that line the rugged coastline, as well as a pretty town centre. Head to Fig Tree Bay with its lone fig tree. There, you can swim and snorkel in the calm, crystal-clear waters, relax on the soft sands or take part in adrenaline-fuelled water sports like sea kayaking, parasailing and jet skiing. There’s also an island you can swim out to and a boardwalk you can walk along. In the centre of Protaras, snap pictures of the Venetian architecture and pretty pastel houses, wander the cobbled streets or browse the shops for locally-crafted souvenirs and fresh produce. For trips slightly further afield, the ghost town of Varosha with its abandoned buildings is a popular choice. It’s about 40 minutes away. Or, you could hop on a boat to the protected nature park area of Cape Greco, which is also superb snorkelling and scuba diving territory. On land, the nature park has pine-tree lined forest trails with spectacular nature, sea and cliff views and by sea, there are submerged caves, rock formations and canyons for beginner or pro scuba divers. You could also head to Ayia Napa for more family-friendly beaches, the water park or exciting nightlife. The town's main landmark is the picturesque Venetian-era Ayia Napa Monastery, which stands in the central square and is surrounded by bars and clubs. The colourful harbour with its water-front restaurants is also a go to. Try freshly caught seafood there or traditional cuisine.
