The Aqua Rose

The Aqua Rose: Famagusta

With clean-cut, whitewashed exteriors, this coastal home has enough room for everyone, with five bedrooms over three storeys, plus a pool and games room. Large, sliding glass doors make the transition from indoors to outdoors seamless, though thanks to the position of neighbouring homes, it isn't the most private, especially on the terrace. But the location means that even if you don't drive, you won't be at a loss. You'll have your pick of restaurants and bars within a few minutes' walk, and the golden Vathia Gonia beach is just down the road.

Home truths:
*There is space to park on the driveway at this home.
*Your host can provide a complimentary cot and high chair – this must be requested at the time of booking, and you'll need to bring your own cot linen.
*There is a bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor for guests with reduced mobility.
*The bedrooms and bathrooms here tend to be on the smaller side and wardrobe storage is light, but you'll have everything you need for a good night's sleep and to freshen up for the day.
*The lounge and terrace are somewhat overlooked by the building opposite. There's a chance you might see a neighbour or two through the window, so it doesn't feel completely private. There's also a chance you may hear some noise from neighbours during your stay.
