Welcome to the
Kontoyiannis Information website. This is the
companion site of Kontoyiannis House our traditional stone built villa
which is rented out as a villa or apartments all year
round. It was created to give you
a better idea of Kontoyiannis House, Kalavasos village
and Cyprus in general.
It's a way for me to
express my love of Cyprus and its traditions. My
favourite section is the one about Cyprus food and wine,
particularly
Traditional Cypriot Recipes.

My name is Christalla
and I run Kontoyiannis House with my husband Panayiotis
and my brother John. We are all Greek Cypriots and moved
over from England in 1988. Look
here
if you are want to hear more about us.
Kontoyiannis house
has been in operation as a family run business since
1994. It is has been a member of the
Cyprus
Agrotourism company since the company first began
operation.
During February and
March 2006 we decided to give the house a facelift and
couple of new additions. We hope you like the
changes.............. |

Kontoyiannis House
is a great place to use as a base while exploring
Cyprus. We can accommodate from 1-22 persons at our
house and you could even organize groups to come and
visit. The house is centered around a courtyard
and has 5 bedrooms, it can be let as 4 separate
apartments or as a whole.
If you like we can help you
organize this
as we can arrange flights and mini buses etc.
Please note we can get reduced rates for groups! |

Kalavasos is centrally
located for the whole island so a great place for a
holiday experience that will allow you to visit the
whole of Cyprus and at the same time see how the typical
Cypriot passes his day. The village square is full
of coffee shops where locals and visitors alike can
enjoy a nice cup of coffee, a glass of the local Zivania
or play a nice game of Tavli (or backgammon if you want
the translated version). Tavli is a very popular
Cypriot pastime enjoyed for years on the island. |

We also have
quite a few village tavernas and the Ziggi fishing
village which is just a few minutes by car is excellent
for fresh fish. Governors beach, a secluded area,
is also just a few minutes away with excellent beaches
and local restaurants where you can experience our local
specialities. |
