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…

Slowly but surely we have seen a welcome swing towards modifying accommodations into mini or full on resort styles ... Here's a few to choose...

Lithos Rock Band have been part of the rock scene in Protaras for over 12 years, these day's they're booked 7 nights a week at the excellent Q Bar in Protaras! What I really like about them is you don't really know what they are going play each night, coz that depends on the audience ... with some 400 to 500 tracks on their play list, they don't even plan what they're going to play next ... one thing's for sure you'll get a professional show from a group who can play so well together and btw, they can all sing too!

Ayia Napa Street Art Festival, Day 3, 2019

Tony Dynamou - 26th March 2019 0

I'm loving the Mythological theme which will become more and more evident when people describe Ayia Napa to their friends ... I have to say a big 'Well Done' to everyone who organised and is taking part in this year's festival ... this was Day 3 btw

Larnaca

The Hub of Cyprus If you’re staying in Larnaca, this port of old, discovering the island’s other attractions couldn’t be easier with countless day trips in every direction, and meanwhile you’ll find out why it’s…

CyproNatura, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 10th July 2017 0

Getting into the natural food thing isn't as hard as you think ! Replacing things like crisps and biscuits, with really fresh nuts and totally fresh, dried, and sugarless fruits is easy, tbh, knowing you're not putting rubbish inside you is a fulfilling emotion and actually I discovered ages ago the tastes are just awesome !

Cyprus Rocks Festival 2019, Protaras … 2nd ’til 9th October

Tony Dynamou - 26th June 2019 0

What started as a weekend gig, grew into a week long party, a week long pure rock festival, live bands on a big stage, and often in intimate venues, where you get a chance to grab a drink and socialise with like minded mates you've not seen since the last festival, as well as the band members who hang around the venues, along with the thousands of rock fans that started to follow Cyprus Rocks Festival over ten years ago ...

Bites 7060, Pizza & Vegan Pizza, Livadia

Tony Dynamou - 17th December 2021 0

Vangelis said he had extensive training in Naples, not at collage but at an academy at a traditional pizzeria, with top pizza chefs. The rewards; pizzas as authentic as you can get this side of Italy, the dough, 4 simple ingredients, hand made, but fermented for 48 Hours before use, a Neapolitan influence, which enhances the flavour, then topped with your favourite toppings and baked to perfection in a traditional stone fired revolving oven ... the result a thin base with a light fluffy crust ... I have to say they're delicious!

Lambros Fish & Chips & Kebab Tavern, Dhekalia, Larnaca

Tony Dynamou - 28th July 2020 0

... These days he's got a crew of 30, most working as part of the family for years, and 'well oiled' is an understatement ... serving the best Cod and Haddock, and a nice bit of Plaice, imported from UK, Norway, Germany and France, deep fried in Lambros' crispy batter or breadcrumbs and served, of course, with chips made with Cyprus potatoes, pure heaven! ... opps, don't forget the mushy peas or maybe gravy, or curry sauce to dip your chips into and a few pickled onions and maybe a wally ... omg, old habits die hard oh, and almost forgot a good cuppa and a slice ... perfect!

Lepus Gift Shops

Tony Dynamou - 5th October 2017 0

Established in 1985 starting with one shop in Laiki Gitonia, Nicosia slowly but surly they then expanded to another in Ledra Street, and can now boast 16 branches all over Cyprus !

Paralimni & Kapparis

He's contributed his whole life to his work, spending over 5 years on a mission to travel all over the UK researching the different recipes from the different settlers of various regions of Indian … btw, they also boast a TripAdvisor award putting them in the top 10% Indian Restaurants in the World!

Property

admin - 1st March 2016 0

Firstly, before you buy, I would suggest you rent a place for a year to give you time to make the right decisions. The property boom in the early 2000’s has eased off, to say the least and costs have levelled, but vary from town to town and location …

Ham Yam Quad, Buggie & Scooter Rentals, Protaras

Tony Dynamou - 8th July 2023 0

They've got Quads, Buggies, Scooters and Bicycles in two shops. In fact I've known Antonis since he opened in 1993, and he is one of those 'shop on the corner' type guy's who provides an excellent service at very competitive prices and his selection of vehicles is extensive to say the least and he'll even come and pick you up and drop you off after

Daltons Tex Mex Restaurant, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 22nd February 2016 0

This Tex Mex Restaurant and Bar starts off brilliant as you walk through under the arch, welcomed by an awesome crew and ends up delightful as you leave. The decoration is themed to the Wild Wild West ... all wooden and ranch style with cacti everywhere, and things like the sheriff's office and the real jail ... to lock up your kids while you eat 😉 Inside the gates its al fresco style with a retractable roof so you'll dine under the stars.

February 2025

Tony Dynamou - 1st February 2025 0

It's February, I thought January was never gonna end? Now, you just have to love February in Cyprus! It's spring on the island of Aphrodite, our Goddess of Love and there's romance in the air, everywhere, especially on the 14th when we celebrate Valentine’s Day, which this year falls on a Friday so you might as well make love all weekend! ... oh and, I love watching the postman struggle to get all my cards in the little letterbox.

I Wish it Would Rain Down on Me!

Tony Dynamou - 30th January 2025 0

Andrew Rafferty with Two Sides of Phil Collins, one of the world's best tributes to the legend himself ... This guy looks like Phil, dresses identical and sounds just like him ... and as we hadn't seen rain since May this cover of 'I wish It Would Rain' was quite apt!
