Ayia Napa

WARNING ! You’re gonna find it pretty hard to leave this fantasy to go back to reality …

Anyone who knows Napa, knows, that ‘full of youths’ stigma is just a load of media hype and no different from any other top resort! Fact is, it’s so versatile…

Lordos Group of Hotels, Larnaca & Protaras

Tony Dynamou - 0
I am delighted to introduce you to The Lordos Group of Hotels as I've worked closely with their 3 hotels and indeed the Lordos family since 1993.  They are without a doubt one of Cyprus' leading companies and their 3 hotels certainly excel when it comes to location, comfort, and hospitality.  Each hotel with its own specific features, each hotel unique in its own way, all ideally situated in perfect locations, pretty much, right on the beach!

What's so special about these designs, is the hydraulic reclining system added to the designs of these chairs and sunbeds.  Taking a seat on the first set, a 6-seater, dining table, I have to say was very impressed at how smooth the high-back seat reclined with just a push of the button.

The Great Escape

Tony Dynamou - 0
To be honest if you'd asked me if I'd ever move to Cyprus in 1992 I'd have laughed at you but we stopped looking for excuses and decided to give it a go, moved in '93 and never looked back ... We now live in a country with one of the best climates in the world, long hot summers, short mild winters.  I believe it's the safest place with under 2 million population.  The Cypriots dote their children and live for the table.  We have several of the finest beaches in the world and I'd say the best sea I've ever had the pleasure to swim in ... so don't think about it just do it!!

Limelight Grill House Taverna, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 0
This spacious family run restaurant has been a popular favourite for over 3 decades and naturally it gets packed.  The decor of stone arches, plants, palm trees and courtyards adds to the relaxed ambiance, whilst the proprietor 'Paul' will make you feel like one of the family, many customers are still going back for more after thirty years!

Napa Plaza Boutique Hotel, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 0
I've worked closely with this multi-award winning Four Star hotel for over 30 years, and the swing towards an 'Adults Only' concept really distinguishes this hotel from the others, underlined by a chic, stylish, unique, communicative, relaxed, and enjoyable environment.   It's a haven for travellers seeking a unique blend of modern comfort, personalized service, and an intimate ambience.

Potamos Fish Restaurant, Liopetri

Tony Dynamou - 0
It's a picturesque setting, with the restaurant literally on the riverbank, overlooking the fishing shelter, on the estuary of the Liopetri River aka 'Potamos', with stunning views stretching all the way to Cape Greko.  Inside, traditional, comfortable seating, fresh fish fridges, old photos on walls, and outside on the terrace with decking, where their two fishing boats are docked, seating for around 150 diners, lined with umbrellas for a little shade, and with the sea just a few metres away. you couldn't find a more perfect setting to eat fish!  btw, Haris and Margaritas' grandfather Nicolas opened this delightful beachside location in Potamos 50 years ago, so all the local fishermen could enjoy their days' catch, and btw, they still do.

It’s also the season for festivals, markets and events, and September normally brings us a few closing parties, some a little premature, I feel.  There’s still lots happening, and don’t forget to look out for the winter opening parties, theatre, tributes, festivals, and dance events scattered all over the island … follow us on Facebook, and we’ll keep you in touch.

We’ll see you there – preferably with an appetite.
