Polis (Greek for town or city) counts itself to be one of the most scenic locations on the island. The nearby ‘Baths of Aphrodite’, on the fringes of the Akamas peninsula are a popular tourist destination.
Paphos international airport is a mere forty-five minutes away. These journey times will be dramatically cut once the new motorway link from Paphos is completed.
Many activities, including horse riding, hiking, mountain biking and a vast variety of water sports can be found in the region. For those who love a round of golf, the Tsada golf & Country Club is currently located only about twenty to twenty-five minutes away.
With all these facilities on the doorstep it is not a wonder that properties in Polis are starting to demand premium prices.
The Polis archaeological museum is rapidly becoming one of the main attractions of the town. Opened in 1999, it houses many artifacts found during archaeological digs in the area.
The Byzantine history of Cyprus is evident in the many churches of the region. Agios Andronikos, a late Byzantine church is possibly one of the most intriguing examples of religious architecture on the island. During the Ottoman invasion of 1571, the church’s frescoes were covered in whitewash to protect them from the rampaging Turkish hordes.
If you are looking for an authentic taste of Cypriot life, this region is an ideal destination for your retirement or for your holiday. With its tranquil character, unspoiled sandy beaches and a stunning combination of mountain and sea views, there can be no better location in the Mediterranean sunshine.
