Villa Astro is situated on the coastline of Argaka, a beautiful and somewhat unspoilt Cypriot Village sandwiched between the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea and some spectacular mountains filled with pine trees.
Argaka is home to a number of traditional Cypriot restaurants, a beach bar and an Irish Bar as well as a bakery and 2 mini-markets. Many of these amenities are in walking distance of the villa or within a very short car journey. Travel a little way and you reach the bigger town of Polis.
There is plenty of activity to choose from, whether you wish to dine in one of the many restaurants, shop at some larger supermarkets, hire mountain bikes, quad bikes or just watch the world go by in the ambience of the traditional village square.
The nearby Latchi beach is renowned as one of the best on this side of the island and not as crowded as the beaches in and around Paphos itself (which can be reached by car in 30 minutes or under). Latchi beach is famous for its clear blue sea, soft white sand and a great selection of watersports which are readily available. Take one of the boat rides (or even hire your own) to the ‘blue lagoon’, have a swim and/or snorkel, then come back to the pretty harbour/fishing port and have the famous ‘Fish Meze’ where you will be served approx 20 dishes including some of the freshest catches of the day whilst watching the world go by.
For the more adventurous, you can enter the ‘Akamas’ Nature reserve and go all the way round to ‘Lara Beach’ famous for its turtles and wonderful beach. If it is unspoilt Cyprus you are looking for, this is a great area to visit. You may even venture into the nearby villages of Peristerona, Lysos and Miliou or further on to Kathikas (with its vineyards and wineries), Droushia and Panagia. Other fantastic scenery can be taken in at Cedar Valley and the Troodos mountain range where in Winter, you can even Ski!Paphos airport is 1 hour away by very good quality roads with English road signs. Visit Argaka and you won’t be disappointed.

Review submitted by Justine from Ripon (Submitted: 21/10/2024) ''Good villa, lots of room and good layout inside and out for our family. The location was good for us, quiet but that's what we wanted. In hindsight a car would have been useful. The weather was great for mid october. We enjoyed everywhere we ate. The dancing, music and buffet at the traditional restaurant locally was very good as was our meal there previously. We also really enjoyed Noma in Latchi. Really good service from you as agents, thank you. Locally also excellent. Georgiou was really helpful and called by a couple of times to check everything was ok for us and even brought an orange cake which was delicious. The provisions in the villa for our arrival were very helpful, and all instructions and details were clear for villa use. Thanks again, we had a lovely time.''
Review submitted by Jayne from Essex (Submitted: 26/09/2024) ''Very nice villa well equipped in the kitchen and with a lovely pool and area with enough sun beds . Bedrooms upstairs with bath en-suites are beautiful bedrooms down stairs with shower en-suites perhaps slightly less modern in bed linen . For an all adult party stay it would be better if both upstairs were king size beds but can understand why they were twins (we were pleased our instructions to make all rooms as doubles was completed ) nice touch with pool table and table tennis. Overall excellent we really liked it and enjoyed our stay -we would recommend this villa to others We have driven past Argaka before and like it . We thought the location opposite Santa Barbara beach bar was fantastic and over the road to the sea and pebble beach . ( we swam in the sea and it was great ) The new coastal path pavement is also great and helpful just to go to the Irish bar or coffee shop. The directions you provided with the big supermarket was also extremely helpful and useful in that it’s not far away either Santa Barbara beach bar is excellent for breakfast or dinner and lovely position on the beach . Paphos harbour walk and shops is a good day out. Troodos mountains are also close if you have a car Great email exchanges and instructions for arrival , also good comms with the property manager Georgios . Would definitely feel happy about booking another property with your company We had a great time ''
Review submitted by Helen from Kent (Submitted: 24/05/2024) ''We had a great holiday in Villa Astro. Large airy rooms with A/C not that we needed to use it. Weather was good. Location was peaceful, near the beach could hear the waves and plenty of bird song. We loved the Santa Baraba bar situated on the beach within 2 min walking distance. Great food lots of choices and great cocktails ! Great play park for the children too. Near the beach and bar. There were other restaurants nearby but we didn’t try them. Polis and lahtchi are worth a visit with bars and shops. The communication from the company were excellent and local agent Georgios was brilliant. Have some intention to return in next couple of years to Cyprus and other Greek islands. Many thanks we had a great holiday. Kind regards Helen and family ''
Review submitted by Evelina from Brussels (Submitted: 24/02/2023) ''The villa is nice and spacious, well equipped and well maintained. The location is great, very close to the beach and few restaurants. Convenient to visit the Paphos area. I can recommend Santa Barbara restaurant that is very close to the villa. We were complete satisfied with all service received. We had a problem with one of the air conditioners and the owner came in 5 minutes...''
Review submitted by Anthony from Chester (Submitted: 03/10/2022) ''Villa Astro is a lovely and we’ll definitely be back. The pool area is private, very pretty and has lovely sea views. Villa, pool and outdoor areas are very well equipped and maintained. The owners have gone the extra mile in providing a pool table, table tennis, a selection of kids play equipment, and sky TV. Villa Astro is just a stumble away from the highly rated Santa Barbara Beach bar and restaurant. Argaka is a lovely and quiet location, and as long as you’ve got a car, theres plenty of things to see and see and do, with great water sports, buggy hire for exploring the Akamas, lovely restaurants, and a great water park in Paphos for the kids. We like and recommend The Old Town restaurant in Polis. Molo’s restaurant in Latchi. Santa Barbara Beach Bar. Latchi water sports. LetsRentOnline provide a helpful, flexible, efficient, and friendly service, with a personal touch that you don’t get from other agents. Very impressed. The owners are very lovely people and nothing is too much trouble. You might even get treated to a very nice locally baked orange cake, fresh fruit, or even both..''
Review submitted by Anke and Dolf from The Netherlands (Submitted: 16/05/2022) ''The Villa was perfect! It was very comfortable that every bedroom had it’s own bathroom. It gives you privacy! The kitchen was well equipped. The swimming pool was big and clean! A beautiful garden and enough to do for everyone. The swing, the trampoline for the little children and table tennis and pool table was nice for everyone The location was fine. Near the beach and near a perfect beach bar! We surely would recommend Beach Bar/restaurant Santa Barbara!! We also hired a boat for 4 hours at Laski Watersports! Perfect! We were very satisfied with the services and especially the communication with the agents of Lersrentonline !! The instructions were clear and friendly. We always did get very quick answer on our questions! With the owner, Very content! We felt very welcome! Always get a soon reply! And he brought us orange cake, apple pie and summer fruit! Really very sweet. We had a great time with our family in Villa Astro in Cyprus. It was the second time we stayed at the Villa and it felt like coming home! It was for us the first time that we stayed twice in the same place. Thanks for everything! Kind regards, Dolf and Anke''
Review submitted by Matt from Woking, Surrey (Submitted: 18/04/2022) ''Excellent villa, it was very clean, much larger rooms than we were expecting and the pool was lovely. We were really impressed with it. Although it was set back from the sea, it was still a lovely view of it, especially from the balconies. The location was good, could walk to a few bars and restaurants, would definitely need a hire car though, as supermarkets were too far away to walk to. We went to Paphos a couple of times (just under an hour) and Limassol (90 mins) both were very good, but there were not many places closer to visit. Excellent location for a relaxing holiday though. Santa Barbara at the end of the drive (was literally about 75m) was great. We ate there a couple of times and enjoyed both very much. Brilliant view of the sunset from there. Brilliant service from you, always kept up to date, always quick to respond and everything was clear throughout regarding the cost and payment dates. Had little interaction with the owner but was very polite and helpful and bought us a local bottle of wine on our last night which was lovely. The property was fantastic and information sheets were helpful''
Review submitted by Yvonne from Bedfordshire (Submitted: 22/09/2021) ''The Villa itself is as always very good - spacious, well equipped and very clean. A good location in a quiet residential area with great views of the sea and surrounding hills, a fantastic beach bar just 100m down the track and within a 10 -12 minute drive (or taxi) of polis town where there are numerous bars and Tavernas. Also there are a couple of mini-marts and a great bakery also within Argaka for essential supplies as well as a very good supermarket in Polis. We would recommend Santa Barbara beach bar/restaurant just down the track from the villa - excellent plave to watch the sunset and great food, the Half-way house restaurant on the outskirts of Argaka - just 5 mins drive for great breakfasts and fantastic kebabs and in Polis `Finikas` for smart dining in great contemporary surroundings but at reasonable prices. In terms of your service as agents we appreciate how rapidly responsive and helpful you are. The service provided by the owners is great- they are very welcoming, and helpful if needed, and generous with gifts of fresh fruit and wine and keep the villa very clean. Nothing to improve this time, but did appreciate that attention was paid to some suggestions we made in the past as to the comfort of the sunbeds ( cushions now provided) and the uneveness of the pool table which has now been replaced Planning to visit Villa Astro again. ''
Review submitted by Dee from Bournemouth, UK (Submitted: 22/09/2020) ''The villa came up to our expectations and more. It was very clean and the rooms are spacious. All bedrooms being en suite is brilliant. The pool is great and the garden loungers and other furniture are just right. The weather was very hot and humid while we were there so the sofas, table and chairs which were very often in the shade were much appreciated. The pool table was well used and enjoyed. The garden is lovely and is so peaceful. Very often all we could hear was the sound of the sea - bliss! The location is ideal, being so near to the sea, tavernas and beach bars as well as a bakery. The drive to Polis is really easy and only takes a few minutes. We would recommend: The Paradisos Hills hotel at Lysos. An idyllic, peaceful spot with wonderful views. The staff are very welcoming. We called in for coffee and home made cake and returned on our last night for a lovely meal. The Stone Lion taverna at Goudi. Again very welcoming friendly staff and very good Lebanese and Greek food. Very reasonable prices. Probably need to book. BBQ Man Cyprus. We were in Cyprus for a small wedding. In the evening Josh and Bambos from BBQ Man prepared a fabulous BBQ for us. The food was really super and they were great. For a real treat get them to come and cater for you. We were very satisfied with the agent very prompt and helpful responses to any queries we had. We didn't meet any local managers probably because we were out a lot but they came promptly and tried to resolve a couple of small issues we had. Unfortunately the leak in one of the ground floor bathrooms recurred. Hopefully it has been fixed by now. In summary we absolutely loved the villa and didn't want to come home. Hopefully we will stay there again one day.. ''
Review submitted by Timo from Germany (Submitted: 20/10/2019) ''The villa was very nice and clean, Near the sea, directly by a good restarant, perfect for Familys. We recommend Latschi watrersports, Restarant Herb Gardens in Polis. Happy with all your service. ''
Review submitted by Yvonne from Bedforshire (Submitted: 05/10/2019) ''The villa itself was very good indeed, spacious, a well-equipped kitchen, good sized swimming pool and surrounding patio area with attractive planting. The location is good, a great view of the sea, a great restaurant & bar (Santa Barbara) just minutes walk away and not far from Polis with its good selection of restaurants. Santa Barbara in Argaka, the Halfway House for breakfast & lunch on the coast road to Polis, and in polis itself The Old Town, Polis herb garden and Moustakalis. You gave good and prompt communication. Georgious and Angela are very friendly and helpful. We would like to return next year to Villa ''
Review submitted by Mary from Huddersfield (Submitted:11/09/2017) ''We had a lovely relaxing holiday. The villa was perfect for 3 couples. Spacious, clean and within walking distance of the beach and local restaurant. The weather was excellent. Excellent villa - clean tidy and very spacious, especially the pool area. The Villa fulfilled all our requirements. The air conditioning was the best we have had - very quiet. Perfect location- close to the beach and an excellent restaurant. Nice walk strolling along the seafront or a bit more of a challenge we walked inland and were rewarded with some fantastic views. Short drive into Polis/Latchi. Santa Barbara beach bar/restaurant was excellent and just at the bottom of the lane. Beautiful sunsets, free sun beds, fantastic food and service. The Old Town restaurant in Polis was a bit more expensive but well worth it serving quality food with a difference. Excellent communication from you, smooth and easy transaction. Would definitely book through yourselves again. The property manager was helpful and sorted out the couple of issues we had straight away. The mid week clean was done to a high standard. Thanks for making the whole booking experience so easy''
Review submitted by Efrat from Tel-Aviv- Israel (Submitted:02/08/2017) ''We had a great holiday and Astro Villa had a big contribution to it. The villa was just perfect: spacious, clean, well equipped, comfortable, with a great outdoor area and perfect location. Georgios the owner was wonderful, quick to response, very helpful, easy to communicate and friendly. We are also very satisfies with your services, that were highly available, efficient, accurate and completely reliable. We hired a boat for self-drive from Latchi Watersports center, that their services were very professional and welcoming, and it was a great experience. We sure intends to come back to Cyprus and to Astro villa, maybe even next summer. All the best, Efrat''
