The Penthouse: 3BR Seaview-Private Pool in Larnaca

Relaxing family holiday in a beautiful apartment! Positive: I think some of the lower scoring reviews on here are unfair and don’t hold enough weight to be honest bringing the score down so much! I think if you have done your research for eg on location, prices in the area and it being on a main road, you would not be disappointed. Im not sure what expectations others had or what types of travellers they are but we are a family all adults who love spending time together and travelling, laid back and enjoy relaxing who don’t expect too much! This apartment for us was a solid 8/10! The apartment is situated on a main road by the port, about a 20 minute walk to the beautiful promenade in Larnaca, which was ideal for us! Some days when we didn’t feel like walking, we took taxis to and from the town as well as other locations we were going, look for ‘Family Taxi’ in a big yellow sign across the road next to the Radisson Blu Hotel and they will look after you, very reasonable taxi fares! The road is noisy as to be expected on a main road in the early hours of the morning but and mainly at night. Earplugs and some light music and you can sleep but it’s only worth avoiding if you’re a very light sleeper, we bought ear plugs and were fine! During the day, we played music and enjoyed a BBQ on the rooftop, the noise isn’t that bad and you get used to it! The apartment itself is immaculate and has that luxury feel, the beds are comfy! There are enough plates, bowls, cutlery, mugs and glasses etc for 8 people. A few things are missing though such as tea towels and oven gloves as well as basic condiments such as salt and pepper- however there is a Lidl that’s 5 minutes walk up the road and plenty of gift shops sell oven gloves, tea towels souvenirs so not a huge deal to be honest! There is also a local shop that seems to sell everything across the road, the guy in there is lovely and helpful! The rooftop area is really lovely and it was great having the pool to cool down during the day. Negative: The noise from the road, however as I said you get used to it unless you are a very light sleeper! Would say having the basics like tea towels and oven gloves and a wine bottle opener- just little things that can make a difference! And some shade/umberella for the rooftop!

Positive: Pool is noce, place is spacious. Negative: Noise of street for 2 of the bedrooms was loud at night which made it hard to sleep.

מקום נחמד ולא יקר, עם קצת שפע ועין טובה המקום יהפוך למצוין Positive: מקום יפה עם בריכה מפנקת ונוף לים. Negative: הביאו 2 מגבות קטנות לכל אחד. על כל מגבת נוספת רצו 2 יורו. כנ''ל לגבי מצעים, הכל בקמצנות. לא היה הרבה כלי מטבח הגריל בגג לא מצליח לחמם מרוב רוח.

Ogólnie bardzo miły pobyt, do powtórzenia podczas cieplejszej pogody. Positive: Położenie obiektu, udogodnienia, wyposażenie obiektu. Pomoc local host. Negative: W sezonie chłodnym dobrze byłoby aby była podgrzewana woda w basenie. Nie była dostępna informacja o włączeniu bojlera z ciepłą wodą.

Wonderful stay Positive: The location is a 15-20 minute walk from the coast street
