Villa Graviera Cyprus
Holiday Home Rental Description
Villa Graviera is a stunning and newly completed three-bedroom villa sleeping up to six guests. This wonderful new addition to the prestigious Aphrodite Hills Resort is the epitome of cool, Cypriot design, just a stone’s throw on foot from the village square and award- winning golf course. Splendidly perched in an elevated hilltop position, peering across unfettered undergrowth towards the ravine. Uninterrupted, azure, seascape vistas marvel and can be enjoyed from virtually every aspect.
Designed with an inordinate amount of private space both inside and out, this wonderful new, luxury, villa takes its inspiration from traditional Cypriot architecture, blending naturally with its surroundings. Inside, the open plan sitting room, dining and kitchen have been artfully paired with minimal, comfortable furnishings and chic fittings. The décor is soft and neutral creating a sophisticated and tasteful ambience, while providing every creature comfort one could wish for. Whitewashed walls and high ceilings combine to provide a feeling of light throughout, while lengthy windows imbibe the beautiful scenery. Upstairs, no compromise has been made and a good night’s sleep is guaranteed. The large master bedroom with enormous king size bed benefits from a spacious en-suite and large balcony with glorious views out to sea and across the tumbling terrain. There are two further twin bedrooms sharing an adjacent bath and shower room, both are equally elegant.
Outside, the large and inviting private pool takes centre stage while a covered veranda stretches the length of the villa. Practically, this space provides some much-needed respite from the intense summer glare, kick back in a cosy corner with a good book or raise a glass in the alfresco dining area while listening to the soothing hum of cicadas. Aphrodite Hills is an iconic resort offering an attractive mix of luxury living, sporting activities and comprehensive lifestyle services, all of which is handily located just a 15-minute drive from Paphos International Airport. Cyprus lies at the eastern edge of the Mediterranean and benefits from one of the healthiest and sunniest climates in the world with over 300 days of sunshine. While the excellent climate is a sun worshippers paradise, there is plenty to explore should the pool lose its allure. The resort is nestled in a prime position in the southwest of the island, inviting exploration. Beyond the pristine lawns of the golf course, sits vast and diverse scenery, a fascinating history where monuments lay as they fell and hidden coves sit waiting to be discovered.
The island has been inhabited since prehistoric times with settlers including the Romans and Venetians. Pick your way around underground catacombs, discover beautiful monasteries and well-preserved mosaics. History aside, the area is steeped in Greek Mythology, once you realise you are roaming on an island that is known to be the birthplace of the Greek Goddess of Love, Aphrodite, the beach will beckon even more, especially as the Ancient Greeks believe she emerged from the beach at Paphos!
Meanwhile, back at base, enjoy the finest 18-hole championship golf course in the Mediterranean extending over 6289 meters and hosting an extensive calendar of events throughout the year. Whether you are looking to learn or brush up on some new skills, the team can cater to your needs. Beyond the golf course, more activities for the energetic await, a tennis academy, soccer school and Aspire Cycling, as well as leisure activities such as a horse-riding school, a children’s club and an award-winning spa and wellness centre. For those days when all you want to do is relax and unwind, the resort operates a shuttle service to the family friendly Bonamare Beach. And after all that activity you need to eat, while the kitchen in the villa is well equipped, you haven’t necessarily come on holiday to cater a culinary extravaganza so you will be relieved to know the Village Square is within an easy walk. There is an excellent choice of restaurants offering authentic Cypriot Cuisine and some international favourites, as well as a sprinkling of bars and boutiques.Exclusive ‘Added Value Services’ included in the rental price:
