Oroklini Village

You will have the opportunity to get a taste of the hospitality and culture of a traditional Cypriot village with Oroklini's taverns playing characteristic Greek tunes and its narrow streets in this peaceful area which is placid, quiet and colourful with wonderful beaches and sandy bays. This is undoubtedly the best way to experience the fun loving Cypriots’ authentic way of life, customs and rich traditions.

Historically, Oroklini is described as "an ancient village marked on old maps by a number of roughly-built, deserted chapels in the nearby areas next to a mountainside” and appears as "Voroklini" on Venetian maps.

With a population approaching 7,000, Oroklini village has all the amenities of essential stores such as green grocers, pharmacists, supermarkets, bakers and butchers. It boasts a number of take-aways and cafes and four excellent restaurants. There are three churches, a primary school, a gym and a Bank of Cyprus.

For evening entertainment, the restaurants, bowling alley and multi-plex cinema of Larnaca are just 10 minutes by car from the village of Oroklini and the beach is only just a five minute drive away. Many leisure facilities, including a bowling alley, a horse riding centre and a go-kart rink are also located in the vicinity of the village.

Pyla and Pyla Bay

An atmosphere of rural peace is projected around the British Sovereign Base area of which the village is nestled up against. Cypriot life continues unaffected by the green line which is less than a mile away from Pyla's village centre

With its fine beaches, Pyla Bay has attracted the main hotels of the Larnaca district.

Pyla Bay is within easy reach of all of the facilities of Larnaca town, but does also have its own nightlife with a bowling alley and plenty of clubs and restaurants.

All areas of Cyprus can be conveniently reached from Pyla, including Dhekelia (the UK Sovereign Base), due to its excellent connection to the local road network and central location.

The past few years have seen a dramatic expansion of the local infrastructure and turned Oroklini and Pyla from small, traditional villages into the thriving communities they are today.

Furthermore, the imminent redevelopment of the Dekhelia road tourist area, which will see the construction of several new facilities, including hotels and leisure complexes has provided a further boost to Cyprus property for sale in the Oroklini and Pyla area.
