Cyprus Golfing Property a Hit |
When it comes to having a great holiday,
Cyprus has always proved to be a popular destination. It offers 330 days of sunshine a year, beautiful beaches and
of course friendly people. But it seems that Cyprus now has an added attraction - golf. The allure of golfing
holidays, combined with luxury accommodation is gaining momentum, with the latest property niche being golfing
estates.
I do private presentations to groups of about 15 to 20 people. This kind of investor has no interest in going to an
exhibition with hundreds of other people who are looking for a holiday apartment in a traditional tourist area. They
want premium property.
Golfing as a lifestyle does have its attractions. The health impact is important to consider — walking around miles
of beautiful green lawns will always be good for health. Not to mention just being outside in lots of fresh air (and
Cyprus has lots of it, due to its minimal industrial sector). And of course, once the golf game is finished, the
magical Mediterranean is just a swing away.
Both the government and certain far-seeing companies in Cyprus are recognizing that there is a big future in golf in
the country. From a tourism point of view, golf is always going to attract a certain kind of person - not
mass-product, all-inclusive package holiday. Rather, these are people who want to be left alone to play their game
in optimum surroundings, without screaming children and noisy holiday revelers. For this and other advantageous
reasons, the government is making supportive gestures towards the fledging golfing industry in Cyprus. There are
currently three golf courses in Cyprus, with two belonging to Aristo developers Tsada and Secret Valley, both in the
Paphos district and another the latest on is Aphrodite hills belonging to Lanitis group.
The golf property in Cyprus specially in paphos are set in such a way that reflect and promote the natural beauty of
the area. What's more attractive however, are the prices. Considering they are golf properties in a prestigious
development, the starting price of around CYP 200 000 for a 3 bedroom villa with private swimming pool is not
unreasonable.
According to Aristo's Area Sales Manager, Themis Mavromichakos, interest in properties is high amongst investors, "I
do private presentations to groups of about 15 to 20 people. This kind of investor has no interest in going to an
exhibition with hundreds of other people who are looking for a holiday apartment in a traditional tourist area. They
want premium property." A beautiful villa on a golf course, surrounded by majestic mountains, right next to the
Mediterranean sounds pretty premium indeed.
Aphrodite HillsAphrodite Hills is the most exclusive and luxurious
golf and villa resort in Cyprus. Standing in a beautifully scenic spot among two gently sloping plateaus overlooking
the Mediterranean it blends everything you would expect from a world class, purpose-built resort with the ambiance
and charm of a traditional Cyprus village. Built on over 578 acres, the complex is fully equipped with health spa,
tennis academy, driving range, shops and restaurants, a traditional village square, and off coarse an 18 hole
championship golf coarse, making this the complete golfing and summer holiday retreat.
