Villa Rafaella, Coral Bay, 5 Bed Villa With Private Pool Near Sea

Review submitted by Brian from Co Durham (Submitted: 04/06/2023) ''The villa was ideal for our family of 10. Location and the setting was good. The strip at Coral bay was less than a half hour walk and the beach 15 minutes. The villa was very peaceful and not overlooked. The view from the balcony is amazing looking over the fruit trees and down to the sea. We did hire a car but walked most of the time and the bus service is excellent. Philipos supermarket is excellent and provides free transport for shopping from the shop to the villa. We never had a bad meal experience but our favourites were the Golden Temple and the Samisen Japanese Teppanyaki Restaurant. We do also like Greek food and Fat Mamas in Kato Paphos was excellent. Very happy with your service and in future we will book directly with yourselves. Steven went out of his way to help rearranging our dates to line up with our flights. We had only one or two small issues which were addressed very quickly by the owners who we found very approachable. I find it difficult to find fault with the villa which is very spacious and well priced. Cyprus has been our holiday destination for the last decade. We will definitely be back but may visit the Fig Tree area next year. We are very comfortable in a villa and like the freedom and privacy. ''

Review submitted by Lynn from Peterborough (Submitted: 31/05/2022) ''The villa was listed correctly. It was a good location very quiet and peaceful a car is recommended. The Italian restaurant Dolce Vita is a must along with Seriani restaurant also Phillipo supermarket. Worth hiring the buggies and taking a trip to the waterfalls at Adionis Baths and also Latchi beach area. You provided a really good service any questions asked along with arranging taxi transfers were replied and booked quickly. We did not need to contact whilst in Cyprus however the owner did pop over on the first day to make sure all was fine. . ''

Review submitted by Lynn from Dundee (Submitted: 22/10/2021) ''The villa was as described, very clean and spacious. Quiet and private for those of whose who wanted that, but a 10 min walk to bars for those who didn’t. Ideal. Always recommend a trip to Latchi! Our younger guests loved the staff and atmosphere at Dirty Martinis.Totally satisfied with your service and that of the owners, we had a couple of minor issues which were dealt with the same day. Can’t ask for more. ''

Review submitted by Mark from Surrey (Submitted: 03/01/2021) ''First of all I would like to thank you for your help with our holiday to villa rafaella. The location is perfect for the beaches and bars/restaurants of coral bay. The villa itself was lovely and was plenty of room and space for our family of six. The owners Rena and especially Christvanthos were so helpful and were there straight away to see if we needed anything. Also I would like to thank you Stephen with all of your help and prompt responses to any help we needed in the booking and the actual holiday including the information pack you provided us with. We would definitely love to use villa Rafaella along with the help of letsrentonline.com on our next visit to Cyprus. Once again many thanks and kind regards. Mark ''

Review submitted by Alison from Merseyside (Submitted: 22/10/2019) ''We were extremely happy with the location of the villa, the layout and space is fabulous, and gives all guests there own bit of privacy, also the ensuite bedrooms for extra privacy. we were very pleased with the communication we received whilst in the uk, and happy that the driver for our return flight came to visit to confirm pick up time. We went to Viklari which is breathtaking, the views are amazing. we loved the bar near the shipwreck. Thai restaurant and Mexican was fabulous. The villa was spotlessly clean, and the pool maintained to a very high standard. We would definitely book the villa again if we return to coral bay. Thank you for a memorable experience. Alison..''

Review submitted by Melanie from Oxfordshire (Submitted: 25/08/2019) ''The property was spacious and well equipped. The location was peaceful, which is what we preferred. We really liked Cousins restaurant and hired a boat from George’s water sports as Latchi was fully booked, we found it was also cheaper and the staff were very helpful. I experienced very good and efficient service from Let’s rent online. Thank you to Steven for your quick responses to my emails. The owners were very helpful and we had an issue with the air con and a new unit was fitted that day which was great service. We had a power cut and they came straight out and it was an external issue, so very pleased with them..''

Review submitted by Lee from Kent (Submitted: 21/07/2019) ''The villa served us well. It was large enough to accommodate all of us and had everything that we needed to ensure that our holiday went without a hitch. Location was good - nice and quiet, not overlooked, good views across the orchards/plantations out to the sea in the distance. You do need a car though to get supplies and to visit the nearby restaurants. Coral Bay beach is great which has a beach bar selling the usual snacks and drinks. Coral Beach Water Sports also operate from the bay offering a vast range of experiences. Samisen Japanese Tepanyaki restaurant is a must for a great meal with a difference! Oniro by the Sea was my favourite place to eat. Superb food, great cocktails and awesome views at sunset. To be honest we ate out a lot of restaurants and I couldn’t really fault the food or service at any of them. We also hired a boat from Latchi Watersports which was about 30 minutes from the villa. What a fantastic day and in my opinion money very well spent. There were 7 of us and it was my mums 69th Birthday so we rented a 250hp Marinello with cabin. My sister was worried as she suffers sea sickness but nether the less came along, well what can I say, no sea sickness and only a few hours in to the trip she was out in the ‘donut’ begging for me to go faster!! Snorkelling in the various coves along the coast was also a first for my mum! Truly a day that none of us will forget. Five star service from you. Emails answered very promptly, sometimes within minutes. I will definitely be recommending you and using you again. Very satisfied with owners service. Sunday morning, day after arriving, all set for a trip to the local supermarket to stock up. We walked out of the villa leaving the door keys locked inside!!! After a quick call to the local owner he arrived within minutes to let us back in. We had found that the kettle was leaking and that a 13amp plug socket in one of the bedrooms was cracked and loose. Kettle replaced and electrician sent out on the Sunday afternoon to replace the socket. I do hope to visit Cyprus again highly likely to be next year. I now only rent villas as I prefer the privacy not afforded by hotels.''

Review submitted by Richard from Hampshire (Submitted: 06/06/2019) ''The villa was lovely , the outdoor space was definitely the selling point . Spacious , lovely pool , bbq area and outdoor dining space Fantastic. All the rooms were good with no complaints . The views from the balcony’s were fantastic. Location was good, far enough away from the strip but also in walking distance. As the house is large with very few neighbours it allows you not to worry about noise . The pool and outdoor area is not over looked so privacy is fine . The view from the property is stunning. I would recommend Oniro for cocktails and a nice lunch! The location , view and service was great. Sea Caves was also very nice for cocktails. Yes, very happy with your service! Always got back to me very quickly and any questions were answered so can only say good things. We had no problems, I was personally out when they turned up however the other other guests said only good things.''

Review submitted by Steven from Hartlepool- (Submitted: 05/11/2018) ''Brilliant villa, very clean and spacious. Lovely location, surrounded by orange and banana trees. 10 minute walk to local shop and a couple of bars. 15 minutes walk to Coral Bay beach Blazing Saddles Bar was nice, few games for the children (air hockey, pool etc). Fat Mamas is a must for anyone visiting Paphos, food and entertainment is brilliant. Coral Bay beach was good also for water sports and bathing alike. I would also recommend a jeep safari tour as a great way to see the island and a few select locations. Very satisfied with your service. Lots of communication before our trip and answered any and all questions we had. We had a small issue when the power went off one morning, I called them up and they resolved it very quickly, they were very friendly and helpful. Thank you for helping make our holiday enjoyable, please also pass our regards on to the villa owners / managers who were brilliant. Regards, Steven'

Review submitted by June from Nottingham (Submitted: 07/10/2018) ''The Villa was fantastic, we were very impressed. was very clean and well equipped especially in the kitchen, plenty of plastic glasses and plates useful for the pool area and the children in our party, would certainly recommend the villa to others. The location was lovely, very secluded although we did find we had to take taxis everywhere as we had young children in our group and the distance to walk in the heat (not complaining about the weather it was glorious) would have been to much for them, in hindsight we should have hired a seven seater vehicle. We did visit the Italian restaurant you kindly recommended and gave us vouchers for, Duomo I think the service and food was outstanding, best meal we had in Cyprus. Water Park was a great day out and well worth the money. Andy's Taxi Service a godsend, and such a nice guy. The service we received from yourselves especially you Steven was second to none, I can't thank you enough for all your assistance, it is the first time I have arranged a family holiday on line and not through a Travel Agent was very concerned but you made it so easy. Thank you again. When we arrived we had requested two high chairs and there was only one, also one of the air conditioners dripped through the whole first night, when I called this through to the local Manager I was very impressed when a gentleman Chris I believe arrived within a couple of hours with the second high chair and arranged to have the air con fixed that same day. Great Service. As I am sure you can tell was very happy with the villa and the all round service I received, together with the welcome food pack. Please use any information I have provided if you find it useful. Many thanks again. Kindest regards, June Betts and family''

Review - “Villa Rafaella - Coral Bay villa that sleeps 10 guests in 5 bedrooms” Fantastic villa in beautiful surroundings ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a lovely villa with everything you need to have a wonderful holiday it is kept beautifully clean inside and out. From the moment you book Steven and Andreas make sure your holiday goes without a hitch, Andreas is always on hand should you need a taxi or information. The villa has a beautiful pool with plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas, we were a family party of 8 adults and 3 children and and the villa was very well equipped it is situated in a quiet part of coral bay but still within walking distance to the beach and shops. I would definitely come back , we had a fantastic time. Date of arrival Tina B from Nottinghamshire 09 June 2018

Review submitted by Karen from Angelsey (Submitted: 26/09/2017) ''''We were delighted on arriving to the villa. Set in a lovely area. We were most impressed. The outside area is fantastic, just what you need on holiday. Inside the villa, a lovely surprise, clean, modern, well equiped, perfect, we couldnt have asked for a better villa. As a family we were so happy to have found such a great base for our holiday. Coral Bay itself is ideal for anyone. Everything is within walking distance, so much choice of food and drink. Local supermarket great value for money. The locals are very friendly, polite and welcoming. Our manager who came to see us was very helpful indeed. She made us feel very welcome and gave us advice on the local buses and attractions. We would definately book again. The taxi driver who was booked for our transfers was brilliant. Very helpful, happy and the kids loved him. Thank you so much. ''..''
