Passionate bed and breakfast concept in the heart of the country in Cyprus. The hosts Sara and Tassos as well as their family, made sure we were feeling like home during our 9-night stay. If you want to experience the culture and local organic cuisine, this is your place. It's the antithesis of mass resort tourism, just what we were looking for to disconnect from our busy office routines. The house itself is big, spacious and beautiful. To our surprise it was very well connected to major highways and relatively central for travelling around the country. The room was comfy and we slept great. Breakfast was tasty and homemade, with jams and products from their own garden. The hosts are also very passionate about animals, ask them for more information on what they do to help Cypriot stray dogs and cats in the area. We also enjoyed the activities offered on site, such as halloumi making. We learnt from Tassos' mother directly, with more than 60 years of experience in cheesemaking! Sara and Tassos' were very helpful with recommendations of what to do everyday and where to eat. Protip: Go eat at Taverna tou Theodosi in nearby Deftera for a Cypriot feast. Happy to have made this our homebase. Keep in touch and hope to see you guys again maybe in Vietnam, Italy or Cyprus. Epharisto! /Ngoc and David

It was all good!

If you're looking to escape the noise of the city and truly experience the soul of Cyprus, this small village hospitality is an absolute treasure. Just 45 minutes from Larnaka/nicosia. It offers an authentic glimpse into traditional Cypriot life. The charm of this place lies in its simplicity — old stone houses with wooden shutters, narrow winding streets, and a peaceful atmosphere that instantly makes you feel at home. The food here was amazing. Everything is homemade and home grown with rich flavors that come from generations of tradition directly from the heart of tasos's mom. From fresh halloumi and olives to local wine, every meal was a celebration of the island's heritage. Sera and Tasoa are incredibly welcoming — warm, proud of their culture, and eager to share their stories. It’s not just a visit, it’s a genuine connection. If you want an authentic Cypriot experience — not the tourist version — this little stay is the real deal. Peaceful, delicious, and full of heart.

The breakfast was delicious, fresh and healthy. It was even different every day. The place is a passion project and run with a love that really comes across. It was our favourite accomodation (of 5) on the whole trip and also the area around there was the one we enjoyed exploring the most and found the most friendly. My husband and I both both slept extremely well, which is not always easy for my husband being 6ft6. We were in the large family room for reference for future tall guests.

I really don't think it could have been better!

The breakfast was very nice, we had two breakfasts and both were different. Most of the ingredients were of their own produce, and were fresh, and the breakfast was original and not the standard breakfasts you have at hotels. We also had dinner there, after requesting, and it was very thoughtful, if I may so. It was a Cypriot dish but with a twist which gave it a fresh and flavourful taste. The apartments are being run by a couple, and they are very helpful and hospitable. As soon as we arrived, the owner gave us a map basically not only showing us the village but also the surrounding areas and places we could go and visit. For us this was very helpful, as we went there a bit unprepared. I like the fact that you could help yourself to the plates or glasses and utensils from the dining room if you wanted to have food from elsewhere there. It gave you a sense of comfortableness that you rarely have, and to be honest, options. We also took our dog with us, and both the owners were very welcoming and understanding of that. All in all it was a very pleasant 3day weekend and an excellent choice of stay.

We stayed here twice, very nice both times. It was quiet when we stayed so we could take full advantage of the interior yard. No AC but we managed to sleep fine with the fans. We haven't really visited the village. It's a place where you need a car (like most places in Cyprus). Our hosts were very nice and I really enjoyed chatting with Sara over breakfast. The breakfast was also delicious.

The bamboo ceiling takes some adjusting to if you are a nervous person. My teenage kids didn't mind the noise at all.

Beautiful countryside hotel with just a few rooms, perfect for our extended family. An old farmhouse which has been converted into four bedrooms, it is full of charm and history, as is the village. Our hosts cooked us breakfast each morning and were outstandingly kind. We also loved the village tavern our hosts booked for us where we had our first dinner. In the evening, we bought bottles of delicious wine that had been left in the kitchen of the hotel and happily sat in the courtyard.

Showers upstairs could do with some updating as do handrails on stairs

We really enjoyed staying with Sara and Tassos. They made us feel very welcome and gave us loads of information about the surrounding area. The breakfast and dinner was high quality, home cooked and delicious and Sara and Tassos are very considered of any special diets. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. Our holidays in Pera could not have been better. Thank you so much! We hope to come back one day.

The small family hotel 20km from Nicosia is more for people who prefer a holiday stay far away from the hustle and bustle of tourism. The room we got was "royal style" - there is only one of this type in the property! The owners of the hotel, a married couple, were very accommodating - especially when it came to information about the attractions in the area. Above all, the conversation at breakfast was worth its weight in gold! Thank you for that! Breakfast was organized family style - with local delicacies. For us it was sometimes a little small, but refilling wasn't a problem (toast).

The room could be cleaned more often - especially when it comes to garbage! It was quiet in the evening because there were few guests. Since the romantic courtyard with the tables invites you to spend the evening and the rooms are directly adjacent to it, it could be annoying at times - but everything was fine for us.

If friendliness could be rated at max 10 level, hosts would receive 100. House itself provides not just a top level of comfort, but also cultural and historical experience. That experience enriched my trip and understanding the culture of island in the same way as visiting top archeological sites or museums. I would regret if I haven't visited the place.

nothing, that is a perfect place

This is such a wonderfully quiet, rustic and beautiful house to stay at, with such accommodation, helpful and kind hosts. It represents exceptionally good value as well. The room was unique; I have never had a padlock and a hundred-year-old bolt on two doors, and I loved it :) Sara and Tassis are very keen to give you lots of extensive advice about what to see and do in the local area and give you excellent hand-drawn maps.

The breakfast is lovely - all homemade food with exceptionally local/handmade ingredients, and it was different each day. It was just quite small and each day I had to find somewhere else to have a second breakfast after I went out to explore! (That's not a criticism; it'll be fine for some people.) It's worth knowing that if you arrive on a Sunday there isn't really anywhere local to eat and even on midweek evenings you'll have to drive 10/15 minutes to find somewhere. Sara does cook dinner on a couple of nights each week, though, for 20 euros so ask about that.
