Paphos
Paphos, the birthplace of Aphrodite, and
ancient capital of Cyprus, Paphos has rich heritage and
culture. Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love choose Paphos to be
her home as she found the beauty of the area to be
unmatched. Its age old history and archaeological treasures
have merited the towns naming as a world heritage site by
UNESCO.
Located on the South-West of the island, it is arguable that
Paphos has the best climate all year round. Heat does not
reach intolerable levels and winters are milder and shorter
than other regions. It has been traditionally popular with
families and older people, making it a year round tourist
destination, unlike other places in Cyprus.
 There are many ways for you to enjoy the way of life in
Pafos: Take pleasure in a day of shopping in the traditional
market in the old town where you will be amazed at the
abundance of shops of all sizes selling all sorts of local
products. Take a walk along one of the many sandy or pebble
beach’s and admire the breathtaking crystal-clear blue
waters of the Mediterranean. Visit Tombs of the Kings, St.
Pauls Pillar, the Mosaics or one of the numerous
archaeological and cultural sites. Spend a day in the
beautiful and unspoiled Akamas National Park, and live the
splendour of Cyprus wildlife and plantations close-up.
Despite its increasing demand, Paphos is being developed at
a reasonable pace. The prospects of Paphos as a region in
its entirety are now fully recognised, with big changes on
the way. Paphos is already home to three golf courses,
luxury international hotel chains and hosts operations of
multinational corporations. A new airport and a Marina are
in the pipeline, which will give an even more upgraded
feeling to Paphos. EU Membership and all the associated
benefits have and will continue to play an important role to
the Paphos district.
In addition to the above, one must always consider the lower
cost of living, taxation advantages, the short distance from
major European destinations and the very competitive payment
terms available with Stasis Estates properties. It is easy
to see that there is no better time to invest.
