  We have had the most wonderful holiday. The villa has beautiful interiors and the views from the pool area were breathtaking. We found lots to do, both for us and the children, from watching baby turtles return to the sea, enjoying bathing in the safe waters, to visiting sites such as Salamis. The area is so unspoilt, which made a refreshing change. The owners have thought of everything, we felt very spoilt.

  We stayed at this amazing villa in September 2013 and we were blown away by how beautiful the villa and location was. The views from the villa are glorious and the pool is perfect for a dip when the Cyprus sun gets too hot! The villa itself was spotlessly clean and very well maintained and had everything we needed for a relaxing and easy break. The kitchen has a whole host of equipment for cooking and there were shops a 5 minute drive away to stock up on all of our essentials. On our arrival we had been left a welcome pack with milk, bread, water etc and even a bottle of wine which was incredibly helpful. Carol was amazing and organised our car hire and transfer from the airport making things very easy for us. I would recommend hiring a car so that you can travel around to some of the nearby beaches and go and see some of the sights; we went to Hilarion Castle which is absolutely wonderful and has great views and we also drove to Golden Beach and stayed overnight at Burcans – the 2 hour drive up the coast is completely worth it. Kyrenia Harbour is great for night time dinners out and has a lovely relaxed atmosphere. I can’t recommend this villa enough, the service and helpful hints we received from Carol was outstanding and you can spend your days at the Villa without interruption, it is so peaceful and really has everything you need. We will definitely be back again for another visit, it really felt like our holiday home by the end of our stay and we were very sad to leave. Thank you so much to Carol and Tony for allowing us to rent the Villa – it really was one of the best holidays we have ever had! Thanks again! Amy & Tom

  We were after a fully equipped, family friendly, private villa with its own pool, just far enough away to escape the excesses of the early the summer crowds for two weeks, but not so far away we were unable to enjoy ourselves. Villa Lalai delivered on everything we wanted. It is a wonderfully relaxing place, simply but well decorated, and equipped with everything you could need. A great feature is the secluded garden with a great pool and view up the mountains, which was well used by all of the family. Dad even managed to conjure up a Barbeque on several evenings A car is necessary to get around, which Carol arranged for us, along with the airport transfers. There are several sights within a short drive. We made the trip to Kyrenia several times, plus visited several local beaches. We also visited Belapais Abbey, Kantara castle, and other more remote locations like Golden Beach, or simply took a short drive up and around the mountains to enjoy the views. I would recommend this villa to anyone with similar needs. It is very well priced, plus has a great pool!

  Owner response: Many thanks Paul, so glad you enjoyed the place as much as we do. Kind regards. Carol

  We went to Villa lalai looking for a relaxing break and we definitely got that. The villa was extremely clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed spending time by the pool and having Bbqs there in the evenings, illuminated by all the candles and lanterns that were provided. Although a car was necessary to get to places, there are many interesting sights within around a half hour drive. We visited the harbour town of Kyrenia, as well as Belapais Abbey and Golden beach. I would recommend this villa to anyone, it was very reasonably priced and worth it just for the pool!

  Fabulous villa tastefully decorated and furnished. Lovely views, fantastic secluded garden with lovely private pool great for relaxing in the sun and evening swims. Nice places to eat at reasonable costs nearby and lovely deserted beaches to enjoy – just glorious. Carol arranged both the car hire and taxi transfers and efficiently answered any queries regarding the property. Mike and Mandy managed the property to the highest standards – spotlessly clean. The neighbours are lovely and always happy to help if required. Thank you Carol for the use of your lovely villa, we hope to be back soon.

  Superb villa in an idyllic setting. Two weeks between sea and mountains. Truly a delightful experience. Thank you again to Carol and Mike! No problems during this stay, you can go there with confidence !!! Now for french people : Très agréable séjour dans cette très belle villa tout confort. Carol Over est une personne de toute confiance, charmante et très disponible qui saura, le cas échéant, vous rendre service (transfert aéroport/villa, location de voiture etc ... ) Bref, n'ayez aucune inquiétude !!! La villa Lalaï est très agréable. Claire, fonctionnelle, elle dispose d'une belle piscine ... indispensable en été. Le cadre est vraiment magique, vue sur les montagnes, aucun vis à vis, à 10 mn de la mer ... on se croirait seul. Sur place une personne (Mike) est présente en cas de besoin, il est charmant et disponible. Nous sommes venus à 4 pour deux semaines (2 adultes et deux ados) et nous avons profité de cette magnifique région qu'est le nord de Chypre. 15 jours suffisent à peine pour en faire le tour. Pour l'instant, peu de tourisme et donc de touristes et c'est tant mieux ... mais ça va changer d'ici quelques temps donc il ne faut pas trop traîner. Paysages somptueux, très sauvages, accueil très sympathique des habitants, des prix très abordables encore et le beau temps assuré (40/45° l'été quand même) Côté formalités, aucun soucis. Nous avons voyagé sans difficulté, il suffit juste de rouler à gauche, maudis anglais :-) Voilà, si vous voulez profiter de calme, d'un accueil chaleureux et convivial, de paysages protégés, de sites archéologiques déserts, de ciels étoilés fantastiques et enfin d'une villa tout confort, n'hésitez surtout pas !!! Sinon, essayez ailleurs ... Jean-Marc

  This was our second visit to Villa Lalai and we wern't disappointed.It was as lovely as before.The villa is set in a wonderful location where it commands total privacy and wonderful views of the mountains in the background.Ideal for families where you want piece and quiet but are not too far by car to eat or enjoy visits around the island. The villa offers you everything you would want from your own home.The pool is a must in the height of season to allow you to spend the day around the pool and to cool of when it is very hot.I use to read my books in the pool and the dragon flies would come and sit on the edges of the book as if they knew I loved to watch them. This is a place I will always cherist.

  Villa Lalai turned out to be a perfect "base-camp" for our family of six (4 children, ages 6, 8, 12 and 14). The layout of the house, the generous pool, the lovely smelling jasmine.. the whole setting inspired us all to relax, read, enjoy the sun, play and interact as a family. There is a very handy supermarket (blue dream) nearby and though the roads are perhaps the least welcoming feature of this part of Cyprus, they suffice to get around and visit some beaches, Kyrenia, Bellapais Abbey, Roman Salamis, the turtle project, etc. Villa Lalai is well-maintained, the owner is both friendly and easy to reach and if any questions remain unanswered or small domestic mishaps occur (running out of water, getting in touch with a good taxi-service) both she and the friendly neighbours will be pleased to give advice or lend a hand. We would definitely recommend staying at villa Lalai to families with children or active elderly (excusez le mot) people.

  Recommended for: Families with young children, age 55+, families with teenagers, sightseeing.

  Hallo Carol Auch wenn Überweisungen nach England und die Anreise aus Deutschland etwas schwierig sind, es hat sich wirklich gelohnt. Die Villa war genau wie beschrieben, bei der ersten Anfahrt im Dunkeln nicht leicht zu finden, aber die Aussicht am Morgen auf die Berge, toll. Der Pool im Garten liegt sehr ruhig. Man kann wunderbare Stunden auf der Terrasse verbringen, ohne gestört zu werden. Was wir auch täglich gemacht haben, es wäre schade es nicht zu tun. Die Tips von Carol, egal ob Strand, Restaurant, Stadt oder Natur waren sehr gut. Das Haus ist hell und freundlich eingerichtet, alles war sauber. Besonders zu erwähnen ist die Gewürzecke in der Küche hier gibt es wirklich alles was man braucht ebenso den riesigen Kühlschrank. Vielen Dank für schöne Tage. Martina und Michael
