Description Pernera Afternoons: Paralimni

A short walk from Pernera Beach, this villa has outdoor space as the real draw. The private pool – with Roman steps leading in – sits alongside an alfresco dining area and outdoor kitchen, so evenings rarely need to move indoors. Back inside, patio doors connect the living room directly to the garden, keeping that holiday feel even on lazier days. To top it off, the main bedroom comes with its own en-suite and a desk for anyone mixing work with a Cyprus escape.

Home truths:
* If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair upon request.
* If you work remotely, the main bedroom has a dedicated desk – a handy setup if you need to catch up on emails or take a call away from the living area.
* While you won't need a car here, private parking is available.
