About this property

Luxury villa and private pool with spectacular mountain background and sea views

Villa Manzara sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac at the foothills of the mountains and overlooking the sea. The panoramic views, particularly from the sun terrace on the first floor, are a delight, from sunrise to spectacular sunsets over the sea.

The Villa is spacious and airy with four generous bedrooms and storage. The sitting room is open plan and comfortable leading into the kitchen, both having French windows leading out onto the dining terrace. Here, there is a magnificent circular glass and tree root table with dining for eight, looking out to the pool.

The pool, a majestic 5m x 10m with a Roman end, is surrounded by a stone patio with sun loungers and umbrellas, and a small garden with shrubs at either end. At night, the pool can be lit up together with patio lights to enhance the visual effect whilst dining on the terrace.

The kitchen is fully equipped with china, glassware and cooking utensils to make any cook feel at home.

Upstairs, the sun terrace, accessible from the top of the stairs and directly from the two bedrooms through French windows, has seating, a coffee table and umbrella for relaxation and spectacular views of the sea and mountains, east and west.

Nearby

Just down on the main road is a convenience store and a supermarket which provide most things that are required and good selection of wines and beers.

There are a number of restaurants and bars nearby, all within a couple of minutes drive. Of special note is Sardunya Beach Bar, which is a lively and rustic bar overlooking a small sandy cove inhabited by locals and visitors alike for good food, music and company.

A little further along the coast towards Kyrenia, less than ten minutes away, there is the Lapta Strip with a great selection of restaurants, bars and beach clubs, serving a range of food, from English, French, Italian and Turkish to also Chinese and Indian.

A little further on and up the mountain in Ilgaz there is Gillham Vineyard, Northern Cyprus’s newest winery with a tasting room, tapas bar and restaurant.

Kyrenia itself is only about twenty minutes away with a host of shops, restaurants and bars, particularly around the old fishing port overlooked by the 16th century Venetian castle that is of great historical interest.

Further afield is Nicosia, about half an hour away, with much to do and see in the old quarter.

Just above the Villa, there are a number of small roads leading to villages further up the mountain with local bars and restaurants.

For history buffs, the area is steeped in conquest and culture from ancient Greek and Roman times through to Byzantine, Crusader, Lusignan, Venetian and Ottoman occupation. Nearby is St. Hilarion Castle perched on top of the mountain range, where you can walk up to the top for more spectacular views, and Kyrenia Castle with its high and imposing walls.

Villa Manzara could not be more convenient for both quiet and relaxing contemplation to enjoying all what Northern Cyprus has to offer – all within just 20-30 minutes drive away.

We were fortunate enough to stay in this villa for our first six month living in Northern Cyprus, it was such a lovely welcome to a beautiful place. The views are amazing both front and back, the furniture of a good standard, the kitchen extremely well equipped. It really felt like home from home. Mark the owner and Magda the property manager were amazing and any problems we had were dealt with immediately, I would strongly recommend this as a lovely spot to take your holiday. Thank you Mark & Magda for making our stay so easy. Jo & Nick

Schöne Poolvilla in guter Lage
Die Villa ist sehr schön, leicht erhöht gelegen so dass man auf der einen Seite einen herrlichen Blick über die Häuser bis zum Meer und auf der anderen Seite zu den Bergen hat. Das Haus bietet alle Annehmlichkeiten und Ausrüstungsdetails, die man typischerweise in einem Urlaub benötigt. Das noch unbebaute Nachbargrundstück wird zurzeit (Oktober 2022) mit schweren Baumaschinen bearbeitet, die werktags bis 17:00 Uhr Lärm machen. Zukünftige Mieter sollten daher vielleicht den Vermieter fragen, ob zum geplanten Termin Baulärm zu erwarten ist. Ansonsten bietet das Haus und die Umgebung herrliche Ruhe. Insgesamt einen Stern Abzug gibt es für den Zustand der Duschen und deswegen in Folge für den Preis. Die Silikonfugen der Duschen sind sämtlich schwarz vergammelt und müssten dringend erneuert werden. Da das Haus ansonsten sehr sauber ist, verwundert dieses Detail und trübt leider den Gesamteindruck. Infolgedessen erscheint auch der Preis etwas überteuert. Alles in allem hatten wir aber eine sehr schöne Zeit in der "Villa Manzera" und wir können sie durchaus weiterempfehlen, sofern die Silikonfugen erneuert wurden und die Frage des Baulärms geklärt ist.

Great Property - Quiet and Comfortable
The villa is spacious and clean with a sparkling blue pool and a view of the mountains and the sea. Check in was easy and the property manager and Magda was really helpful when we asked for assistance too. Would recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Liz Doman

Host profile image
We are both retired now and enjoy travelling and experiencing different cultures. We love Northern Cyprus for its incredible historical heritage and its proud individual character. I was brought up in Lebanon in the 50s so feel completely at home in the eastern Mediterranean.

Why they chose this property

Villa Manzara is a lovely comfortable villa with spectacular views of the mountains and sea which we never tire of. It has a fabulous pool and surrounding patio, with lazy loungers for quiet reading and sunbathing, and a large upstairs sun terrace for cocktails to watch the sun set over the sea. There are also a number of beach clubs all within a few minutes drive.
