In the town of Paralimni, this villa puts you just 300 metres from the nearest sandy beach. The coastline here is studded with sandy bays between the cliffs, where crystal shallows laps at the shore. Should you need to stock up on supplies or fancy a night out, the restaurants, supermarkets and bars of Paralimni are a leisurely walk or a short drive away. It would be easy to while away your days at the villa itself, plunging into the turquoise pool to cool off and stretching out on a sun lounger to dry off. And repeat. Come lunchtime, there’s a sunny dining spot up on the rooftop terrace, where you can catch a glimpse of the sea between the sugar-white houses. Or, dine at the shaded table by the poolside. The living room is like a box of glass, illuminated by sunlight during the day. Glass sliding doors lead to the pool terrace, so you can glide from the open-plan kitchen to the outdoor dining table with ease. That’s unless you’re cooking alfresco too, thanks to the barbecue. Upstairs, all the bedrooms have their own access to private balconies, courtesy of glass double doors.
