Having previously used some of the larger Villa
companies I found that Getaway Villas offers much better value
for money. The Villa facilities were very good and the location
was peaceful, private and secluded. The 'Welcome Pack' was comprehensive,
which was especially appreciated as we arrived late in the evening,
and we did not need to think about shopping until the next day.
A perfect customer experience and I therefore have no hesitation
in recommending Getaway Villas. Steven

Hi Caroline
We just wanted to thank you for a wonderful time on our stay at
Zephyrus.
The villa was prefect for us , it was just what we were looking
for.
The flowers, champagne and card were absolutely beautiful and
very much appreciated, Thanks.
Frosos and christos were a great help, not only were they both
very good at their jobs but they also helped us with other problems
as well. On the Monday after we arrived our baby was ill. We were
trying to find the pharmacy and they gave us the directions and
then the next day she was worse so he then gave us the directions
to a paediatrician which was a great help. Then we were trying
to arrange taxi's and a wedding car for the wedding day and they
gave us their brothers Vasilios's number. He was really helpfully
and did a great job. Also your father in law was extremely nice
every few days he would bring us fresh farm eggs and bags of fresh
oranges.
We can really recommend the restaurant that we had our wedding
meal in.
It
was the Petradaki in kathikas and almost everyone said it was
one of the best meals they had ever had. The couple that run it
set my tables out beautifully they set out my table plans, favours
for guests, balloons confetti along the middle of the table it
was great. So professional.
The black book was a great help anything and everything we needed
was in it.
I hope you don't mind but i added a business card for the baby
equipment hire company. It was great thanks for finding them for
us. it was an older english couple who moved out there 7 years
a go. They were really nice, they delivered and collected the
stuff form the villa with no problems.
the baby walker was brand new they actually pulled it out of the
box and assembled it in front of us. It was a massive help having
that in the villa it made such a difference to our holiday.
We went to some of the restaurants that people had recommended.
I think it's really hard, people have such different ideas of
whats a great meal.
We would say
* Petradaki - one of the best restaurants i have ever ate in.
Clean, beautiful decor, traditional but modern theme and the service,portion
sizes, prices and quality were all extremly good. Our children
got free ice cream each night. Lots of brits that have moved over
eat there - some travelling quite far. You should book in peak
season as it was really busy in May.
*Arourous (in the centre of Kathikas) lots of parking, only do
mezi - but very nice one, really traditional inside, traditional
good atmosphere,really old and uncommercial, lot's of locals seem
to eat there. Very good prices.
* Imogens - not great but not bad. not very big seemed a bit
pushed for space.
meat tasted not very good quality. I ordered steak and it was
like tesco value meat. Didn't really rate the staff but maybe
they were having and off night as many others seemed to enjoy
it.
*Amarkous farmhouse - well this was an experience. walk in ordered
drinks and asked for menus ( no boards or price menus around)
the waitress said "no menus you eat what Mama Angelo cook"
then she turned around and walked away. she didn't ask if that
was ok or anything you just took what you got.
the meal however was really nice, it was mezi style . it was a
shame it was quite or i am sure the atmosphere would have been
much better.
The village the villa is in is so nice. One day my sister was
out a walk and she met an english women called Carol who lived
there. They night before the wedding she came and gave me a full
body aroma massage for an hour and a half and Martin my husband
got a 40 minute Indian head massage.
Her prices were really good, we would both recommend her. Again
i hope you don't mind but we left her card in the black book.
The whole villa and all the accessories were great quality. We
were so glad we paid the extra to get the pool heated. The first
night we arrived at 3am and My dad and Martin both jumped straight
in. Then on a couple of nights through out the holiday we were
in at night, it was lovely.
A few days before we left i was a bit worried that everyone's
villas would be all right. I'm not sure if i told you but i only
found your site by chance when i was looking for james villas.
After we seen how reasonable you were compaired to them i told
the other two groups that were going to the wedding about you.
So a couple of days before i thought to myself " what if
the villas aren't nice or if somethings wrong and it was me that
found and recommened your company to some many people". Thankfully
i had nothing to worry about the other two groups also loved their
villas and everything was perfect for them as well. The wecolme
packs were the best we have ever had and it is small things like
a bottle of red wine to arrive to after a long journey that really
made the differnce.
We would defenetly recommend you to any friends or family. Hopefully
we will book with you again soon. thanks again.
The Kennedy and Russell family

The pool was wonderful, the villa well equipped, spacious,
and beautifully situated. We had some lovely meals in the
local tavernas and were drawn towards Polis for its cafes
(our family liked the internet cafe particularly), shops
and less touristy atmosphere. We enjoyed the wine-tasting
at Sterna Winery and the beaches on the north coast.

visiting Pafos Bird Park and Lara Bay. ... "
