A very thoughtfully fitted apartment which suited all our needs. We, too, have worked our way through most of the 'eateries' but particularly like Achilles and Miltos Grill House as they have draught Keo.

Fantastic, clean apartmentthat has everything a holiday maker in Cyprus could need for a comfortable stay. We would strongly recommend the Mandra Taverna and Voreas Taverna for exquisite local dishes. Thank you, Helen & Doug, for the use of your apartment.

Very nice apartment, well equipped and nice views. Lovely and quiet. Doug & Helen were very helpful regarding our possible change of travel plans due to volcanic ash ñ thank you. Visited lots of places but a few stand out. Taverna at Potamos Creek - good food and location. The beach at Ayia Thekla is fantastic ñ very quiet when we went ñ lovely sea and sand. And a coffee on the parade at Larnaca ñ very expensive but great for people watching!

Thank you for making our booking so easy. We have been here, there and everywhere. Visit Agros rose factory and enjoy the breathtaking mountain roads. Breakfast on the balcony has been a real treat and the home from home comforts are much appreciated. The ëEnglishí locals all head to Lithos Sports Bar for a friendly quiz night on Tuesdays (they will always be happy to have extra brains!!). Love to Doug & Helen

Thank you, Doug & Helen, for allowing us to rent your lovely apartment. Your apartment is equipped with all you need. We had a fantastic holiday. We spent some time by the pool which was nice and relaxing. Visited the local tavernas and had some great meals. Can't wait for our return trip to Cyprus. Kind regards

Home from home for comfort ñ well equipped apartment. Corfu Taverna ñ we found Andreas and staff very welcoming, helpful and efficient, and the food was excellent. Our time here was too short to do all the things we wished so cannot wait to return. Stelios from Helen's Car Hire was superb ñ over and above the call of duty. Oroklini very friendly and a well located apartment.

Thank you Helen & Doug. We've had a very relaxing holiday with plenty of rest ñ we certainly needed it. We hired a car for the second week and did a lot of touring around mainly because we kept getting lost. Can recommend Kourion and Troodos mountains ñ wonderful places well worth a visit. Tavernas! Try Mandra on Monday night, Voreas on Friday and the Village Inn, Pyla on Thursday ñ Quiz night.

Thanks, Helen & Doug, for letting us stay in your Cyprus home. We love it here. The apartment is great as are all the locals. We enjoyed visiting the local tavernas and the food was very good (also the wine but we wonít go into that!). Love to come back here again (please!).

Hi Doug ! Back in New Zealand now!Thank you for providing us with your lovely,peaceful & relaxing apartment. We enjoyed every minute of it.

Pity, but March was too cool to swim.

Ideal base to tour the island with rental Car. Very good+ cheap. Ý Connection with bus-transport available too and immense amount of antique & religious places to visit! There is Ý a little hint of Greek in old Oroklini. We would love to be back some day. Regards Bernie, Beryl, Lettie (New Zealand)

This apartment is very clean, well-equipped, comfortable and good value -we thoroughly enjoyed our break! We recommend Zorba's bakery and the old tavernas at the top the village, in particular that in the old farm house - the various bottles of Cyrpiot wine and glasses of brandy 31 went down a treat! In addition to the delightful Orthodox church there are many interesting places to visit outside Larnaca and highlights include the Roman mosaics and underground tombs in Paphos, the mediaeval castle and museum in Limassol, and the nature park and craggy coastal walk near Agia Napa.

Doug/Helen, we very much enjoyed our time in your apartment at the end of January. The apartment is in a very nice complex and is well situated in the village of Oroklini for all the Tavernas and shops etc. The apartment itself was very nice and we found every thing that you would need in a holiday apartment.

I would recommend to any friends that are thinking of visiting Cyprus and staying in the Oroklini area.

Thanks again,

Hi Doug and Helen ,had a great time. Great apartment, perfect evening meals on balcony, kids loved the pools, the apartment is well organised, sandy beach, lovely food we will be going back many thanks.

What can we say? What a lovely holiday!

The apartment had everything to help us relax and unwind. Even though it was October, the weather was hot and sunny. The pool and local sandy beach were very inviting. Having a hire car for some of the time gave us a chance to see more of the island, but we found the local bus to Larnaca a very good service. Our evening meal on the lit balcony or at a village taverna in the warm evening air was very relaxing and atmospheric.

Thank you for the holiday, we would definitely go again.

We had a wonderful time in your apartment in Oriklini. Ý The apartment was comfortable, of a high standard, peaceful surroundings both inside and out and we had a relaxing time. Ý The swimming pool is lovely and we will certainly be returning, perhaps early May next year. Ý Many thanks

Complex is lovely, very well maintained, great pool, apartments are finished to a very high standard.

Oroklini was perfect for my wife and I, it's quiet but has everything you need including a good supermarket a superb bakers, a couple of nice tavernas/restaurants with very cheap beer and good local food !!

Car hire is a must to get around the island but Doug will sort you out with that. We hope to return in the near future.
