Villa Asimi | 2-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool in Protaras

Protaras luxury villa rentals don’t come much more compelling than Villa Asimi, a contemporary three-storey residence commanding unobstructed Mediterranean views from within the gated Periyiali Konnos Villas Beach Resort on Cyprus’s southeast coast. This is the kind of address where you wake to salt air and the sound of wavelets against the terrace below—and where five guests find themselves with three full bathrooms, their own heated pool, and a private escape from the crowds of nearby Ayia Napa, just 9km away.

Inside Villa Asimi

Villa Asimi sleeps 5 guests across 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, distributed across three distinct living levels that work together to create genuine separation between private sleeping quarters and shared entertaining space.

The ground floor sets the tone immediately. A fully equipped kitchen anchors one side—ceramic hob, electric oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge freezer, and a substantial preparation island with bar seating—the kind of working kitchen that makes even reluctant cooks volunteer for dinner duty. The dining area seats eight comfortably, while the living space flows through glass doors onto the pool terrace, where a flat-screen television keeps you connected without demanding attention. This is intelligent design: everything you need on one level without climbing stairs to access the heart of the villa.

Ascend to the first floor and the sleeping arrangement becomes clear. The principal double bedroom commands its own ensuite bathroom, offering the kind of privacy couples and families appreciate after group dinners downstairs. The twin bedroom—capable of accommodating an additional single bed for a fifth guest—comes with its own dedicated bathroom, ensuring no morning queues or negotiations over shower times. Both rooms benefit from the cross-ventilation that makes Protaras summers bearable without air conditioning (though the underfloor heating takes the chill from cooler months).

The roof terrace, fronted in glass, becomes the evening ritual. Dining space for eight, comfortable seating with sea views, and the kind of light that makes sunset feel like an event rather than a passing moment. This is where you linger over morning coffee, where children fall asleep watching the stars, where adults remember why they booked the villa in the first place.

Practical touches throughout: a security-monitored entrance, lift access between floors (essential with luggage), fire alarm, intercom system, blind control for managing Cypriot sun intensity, and a safety deposit box for valuables. Housekeeping visits every three days (more frequent arrangements available), while the resort’s concierge can arrange in-villa spa treatments, private chefs, catering, and airport transfers—each service priced separately but available without leaving your terrace.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The pool terrace defines daily life at Villa Asimi. A wraparound deck edged with sun loungers drops down to the heated private pool—shallow enough for young swimmers, deep enough for genuine swimming. The terrace extends on both sides, meaning you can follow the sun throughout the day without ever feeling exposed to neighboring villas (the resort’s design priorities privacy as highly as luxury). Two distinct terraces provide choice: one connected to the living areas for easy access to drinks and kitchen, the other a more contemplative space overlooking the Konnos Bay stretch of coastline.

An outdoor dining area seats guests comfortably for al fresco meals, while the upper terrace captures the prevailing Mediterranean breezes that cool the villa naturally during summer months. This is working outdoor space, not decorative: properly positioned loungers, adequate shade through sail systems, and the kind of deck finishing that doesn’t require shoes even at midday. The views sweep toward Cape Greco National Park in one direction and the gentle curve of Konnos Beach in the other—a 200-metre stretch of sandy shoreline that remains less crowded than Fig Tree Bay, 4km north in central Protaras.

Location: Protaras and the Surrounding Area

Protaras sits on Cyprus’s quieter eastern edge, a deliberate choice for travelers who want Mediterranean access without the all-night energy of Ayia Napa (though the nightlife is only 9km away when you want it). The resort occupies an enviable position within Cape Greco National Park, meaning your immediate surroundings prioritize nature—forest trails, cliff-edge views, and that constant sense of being genuinely removed from development.

Konnos Beach, directly accessible from the resort, offers warm shallow waters ideal for families and snorkelers. Fig Tree Bay, 4km toward central Protaras, provides the golden-sand beach experience Protaras is known for, backed by a promenade perfect for evening strolls and cycle routes that hug the coastline. The Church of Profitis Elias crowns a headland between these two beaches, offering the kind of sunset vantage point that photographs genuinely fail to capture.

Ayia Napa, 9km northwest, concentrates the island’s nightlife and international dining within its compact Old Town. The 16th-century Ayia Napa Monastery sits at the heart, surrounded by bars, tavernas serving fresh seafood, and clubs operating until dawn. The Thalassa Municipal Museum documents Cypriot maritime history and underwater archaeology—particularly valuable if you’re interested in understanding the island beyond beaches.

Water-based activities dominate the area. Boat charters run daily from nearby harbors, offering dolphin-watching excursions, trips to secret coves and sea caves accessible only by water, and fishing expeditions. The waters around Cape Greco remain Mediterranean clearest, ideal for snorkeling or scuba diving through underwater reefs and rocky formations.

Larnaca International Airport, 60km west, provides the primary arrival point for most visitors (approximately 75-minute drive via coastal roads). The journey passes through Famagusta and smaller villages, allowing arrival time to decompress gradually rather than rushing straight into holiday mode.

The best rental season runs April through October, with May-June and September-October offering the sweet spot: warm Mediterranean temperatures (26-28°C), calm seas, and fewer tourists than July-August. Winter (November-March) brings occasional rainfall and cooler evenings (15-18°C), though the underfloor heating and lack of crowds appeal to some travelers. The summer months see peak activity around Ayia Napa’s nightlife and water sports, while shoulder seasons prioritize outdoor dining and beach time without intensity.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Villa Asimi works exceptionally well for couples prioritizing privacy with the option of hosting guests—the three bathrooms mean no bathroom negotiations, while separate living and sleeping floors create genuine separation. Two families can occupy the villa comfortably, each bedroom functioning as a self-contained unit with dedicated bathroom access.

Multi-generational groups appreciate the combination of pool recreation (children), spa services (grandparents), and nearby nightlife (younger adults). The five-guest capacity feels spacious rather than cramped—you’re not sharing bedrooms unless you choose to, and the living areas accommodate group activities without feeling crowded.

Parents with young children benefit from the heated pool, baby amenities available on request, flat-screen televisions with dedicated kids’ channels, and proximity to family-friendly water excursions and amusement park facilities within the broader resort. The calm Konnos Beach waters prove safer for younger swimmers than rougher exposed coastlines.

Business travelers might reserve the villa as a relaxation space between meetings, utilizing the Wi-Fi throughout, smart televisions with conference compatibility, and the option to arrange private chefs or catering for working dinners on the upper terrace. The resort’s conference facilities support small groups requiring meeting space.

Frequently Asked Questions about Villa Asimi

How many guests does Villa Asimi sleep?

Villa Asimi accommodates 5 guests: the principal double bedroom sleeps 2, the twin bedroom sleeps 2 standard occupants, and a fifth guest can use the additional single bed in the twin room. This arrangement means two families can occupy the villa with each bedroom functioning independently, or five friends/colleagues can share without doubling up.

What is the nearest airport to Villa Asimi in Protaras?

Larnaca International Airport serves the area, located 60km west of the villa (approximately 75 minutes by car along the coastal road toward Famagusta, then inland toward central Cyprus).

May through June and September through October offer optimal conditions: sea temperatures around 24-26°C, daytime temperatures 26-28°C, low rainfall probability, and smaller crowds than peak summer months. July-August delivers guaranteed heat but brings maximum crowds to nearby Ayia Napa and higher prices. April offers spring conditions with occasional rain. Winter months (November-March) bring temperatures around 15-18°C with periodic rainfall, but the lack of tourists, lower rates, and mild winter days appeal to some visitors. The heated pool extends the swimming season considerably.
