Local area

We are 15 minutes away from the ancient kingdom of Kourion, in Episkopi, which includes the Sanctuary of Apollo, the gladiator’s arena, mosaics and Amphitheatre. And 10 minutes drive from Aphrodite’s Rock. The old road, used for either direction, is used a lot by cyclists, who take in the stunning sea views. Further west you will also find Aphrodite’s Temple. We have a lot of vineyards in the local surrounding area and towards the nearby village of Avdimou. Anoyira village is another village close to our Resort, which has an olive museum and a carob museum.

Cape Aspro has a lot of hiking trails. The view is spectacular! If you follow the Resort road, going passed our entrance, you will find a path that leads around the mountain; here you will find two small beaches and sea caves. On the opposite side, before reaching Pissouri Bay, at Melanda beach, the mountain here has a few paths that lead to Avdimou Village. There are trails all across the village some of the them leading all the way towards Paphos, near Aphrodite’s rock.

Pissouri village has a souvenir shop with nice, unique pieces and at the Hani restaurant, which dates back to 1950, when it was a wayfarer’s inn, you can find a rich variety of Cyprus local products like halloumi cheese, raisins, olive oil, carob syrup and Cyprus delights.

There are two car parks near the square, with one near the COOP bank.

Vineyards are located in the resort’s surrounding area, where guests can visit and collect grapes and buy local wine. Our Guest Services team will be happy to arrange this for you.
