Just outside Paphos Old Town, this villa lies on a glittering resort with 234 hectares of grounds and no shortage of things to do. Families and friends will settle right in – you'll have your own fenced garden with a private pool, space for alfresco dining, and a rooftop terrace with stunning views over the Mediterranean Sea and the birthplace of Aphrodite, goddess of love. With the resort offering everything from golf to horse riding to a range of spa treatments at an extra cost, you'll be in for a treat from the moment you drop your bags. We recommend hiring a car here to visit Aphrodite's Rock or heading up to Bonamare Beach Club, just 15km away.

About Aphrodite Hills
Named for the Greek goddess of love and beauty, Aphrodite Hills exceeds expectations. It's a luxurious resort sprawled out across the rugged Cypriot coastline, offering picturesque views of the Mediterranean Sea. Golfers flock here for the world-class golf course, while adrenaline junkies try out different watersports at the beach. The long sandy shore appeals to sun-worshippers too. Aphrodite's Rock is only a mile from the resort, and you can easily explore the archaeological sites of the nearby town of Paphos if you feel like venturing further afield – the Tomb of the Kings is a must-see.

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
