Pissouri village is perhaps the only seaside village in Cyprus
that has retained its original architecture and environment. The village
itself stands on a hilltop with a sea level difference of 250 meters and
for the most part is built using solid stone walls. The village centre
has been preserved with Governmental assistance and a village square
which is surrounded by small family run restaurants and cafes, is
extremely popular among both locals and foreign visitors. The village
income is mainly from agriculture (vineyards) and the local vineyards set
in valley (next to the project) are considered to be some of the best on
the island. The village has extensive forestland, which provides miles
for walking in a most pleasant and enjoyable environment.
The village, in addition to the family run businesses in the
village itself, provides shops, entertainment, restaurants situated
within the bay/beach area. Within the bay, and at a distance of 500
meters west of the project, there is the well-known Columbia Beach Resort
Hotel(4 and 5 stars), which offers the possibility of residents using its
sports, health and other facilities, including tennis, conference rooms,
restaurants, etc. The project has entered into an agreement with the
hotel management to accept (subject to approval) membership of the
project's residents to use the hotel's facilities (subject to payment).
