Hi Chris

This has been the best holiday we have been on. Accommodation was clean and spacious, atmosphere was friendly at all times, family and staff were helpful and accommodating. Airport transfers was hassle free and friendly. Equipment and adaptions were the best we have had on holiday. Boat trip is a trip not to be missed. We all enjoyed this holiday so much we did not want to go home, we will be returning as soon as we can. Excellent holiday would rate this 10/10.
Lots of love Kevin, Kelly and crew

Hi Chris

We had a wonderful stay at your apartments.  As a wheelchair user I have travelled to many places which declare themselves as "wheelchair accessible" however on arrival one finds that this is not the case, on arrival at C&A tourist apartments I was immediately at peace.  The design of the place has been well thought out but your additional speed and willingness to provide or resolve any specific disability equipment or access issues was reassuring.  Myself and my 2 year old daughter Maya felt so happy and welcomed by you and your lovely family.  The apartments were comfortable, clean, spacious and well equipped.  By day the pool and frappe's by night the wonderful Cypriot food and company.  Eva and Nitsa's cooking has no rivals.  We have returned home refreshed, tanned, slightly fatter and very content.  We will be coming back so stock up on the ice cream and baklava :o)Much love to all of you

Hi Chris/Nitsa,
we need to thank you once again for yet anther wonderful holiday.
As usual everything went smoothly with the airport transfers, Andreas as dependable as ever.....along with the usual commentary......this year we moved on from olives, lemons e.t.c. to capers and snakes ! he'll make Cypriots of us yet. Kumer went to great lengths to ensure the "electric" wheelchair was comfortable and the portable hoist ensured bathroom tasks, in & out of bed e.t.c. were carried out with the same ease as in our own home.
The boat trip was a great day out, I dont think I've seen as many wheelchairs/disabled on the boat before and they all thoroughly enjoyed their dip in the warm sea water. Although Steve did not get to do his parascending this time he has been telling the tale ( over & over & over.... ) about his hair cut and shave with the cut throat razor ! also his massage is high on his list of good memories.
As usual we met some old friends and made quite a few new ones. These friendships are easily formed over dinner where the food served by Eva, Nitsa & Charoulla is quite simply "the best".
thank you again.....from your friends in the frozen north
Wayne, Linda & Stephen.

Dear Chris,

We are back in Nicosia with our “batteries” fully charged after our stay at your great place. Every worry that I had regarding accessibility before coming there was proven false. It is great to know that such a place is available for a relaxing holiday not only for people with disabilities like me but also for able people and children (Martin, like Mima and me loved the pool as well as Eva’s cooking). A best proof for the great time we had at your place was what a friend told me when we meet last night, “… you look relaxed and fresh …” so does Mima and Martin
I hope we will be able to come there again soon.

Best Regards and a big thanks to you, Eva and the whole group that keep C & A alive and provide such wonderful service to us

Hi Chris 

arrived home to a warm and sunny Manchester last night, the flight was good, left on time and we arrived back in Manchester early. The sun is shining this morning and it is lovely and warm, not HOT as in Cyprus, but very pleasant. I miss the pool, we enjoyed our dip before breakfast yesterday, we should have done it every day!

Thank you to you, your Mum and Dad and sisters for making our visit such a wonderful experience, tell your Mum I will send the recipes when I am more organised. Up to my eyes in laundry and I've loads of correspondence to deal with- and for some reason my car battery has gone flat so I have to get that sorted before I can go any where. Unlike Polis we don't have shops and restaurants just round the corner, the car is esential. I wish we were back in Cyprus!

Many many thanks,

best wishes

Many thanks to you and your family for making our stay with you so enjoyable. We landed home this morning at 3.30 to a chilly 14 degrees - when we got home I had to put a blanket on the bed to warm me up! Certainly a lot different from the temperatures we left behind in Polis! There are clouds in the sky here, and the sun is nowhere to be seen! We will look forward to coming over to stay again!

Love to you all

Dear Chris and the family,
We needed indeed a few days to kick-off after our return to Belgium.

There were many reasons for. For me personally: I was very tired, different weather and also: missing you and your family and the lovingfull kindness that we enjoyed for the second time .

We where a little bid nervous when arriving on 12th of May:

Could it be as good as last year, were our  expectations not to high..???

But from the moment we arrived till the last moment at the departure it was clear: nothing was really changed, the good feeling was there immediately.

Polis (and your place) is still a paradise! And you are the angels there.

There are so many good things to say, too much to write it all down.

Just this: go on you all, you are doing a very good job.

Thanks to you all & our best regards,

Anne,Rita and Erna

Dear Chris, Nitsa, Eva, Andreas, Domitri, and the rest of your wonderful family!
We just want to thank you all for your brilliant hospitality while we were with you. It wasn't long enough, so next year we are going to visit you for 10 or 14 days! And we can't wait to return! We hope that you are all keeping well.

We didn't get our flight home until  24 hours later, we were taken to another Hotel. I wasn't impressed with it, as it didn't have the family feeling or the friendly atmosphere that we shared with all of you. We certainly wouldn't choose any other Hotel in Cyprus! Is Domitri being a good young man, and helping like he was when we last saw him, tell him we will see him next year, we look forward to seeing all of you

At last the sun is out here and it is very warm for a change, though it won't last.

I enclose photos we had taken with you, all those happy memories to repeat next time! Chris, you look great in you photos!

God Bless and our love to you all,

Hi Chris
Our stay at the C&A Apartments in Polis the first week in May was our first visit to Cyprus and certainly won't be the last, in fact we have already booked to return in October.  Everything was perfect from Andreas picking us up at Paphos airport when we arrived, Eva making us a cup of tea in the apartment even though it was very late in the evening and the wonderful hospitality of the whole family all week, not to mention the warm sunny days.  The studio apartment was very comfortable with plenty of room and opened out onto the pool area.  We went on various excursions with Andreas who is a mine of information and the perfect guide returning to a wonderful cooked meal by Eva and Nitsa.  On the odd occasions we relaxed we swam in the pool which was lovely and warm.  The holiday can be as hectic or relaxing as you make it.  Nothing is too much trouble for the family and it was lovely to all mix together for meals.  Now about the "main man" - Chris, he was always on hand to give advice and joined in a lot of the activities, always smiling with a wicked sense of humour.  We can't wait for October." 

Hope this is ok - could have gone on and on!

Love Gill & Frank x

Hi Chris,

            sorry its taken a while to get back to you but been busy since I got back.....you've got to be busy to keep warm !!

It was good to see you all again, our second stay so far this year.....and its only May ! accomodation was up to your usual very high std and the food was tremendous Eva and Nitsa excelling as/usual.

An added extra bonus for these holidays early in the year is taking my early morning swim in the "heated" pool, the warm water is good for my decrepid bones/joints !

The above comments are par for the course when staying with you as is the fact that we come away having made more good friends with fellow visitors it's amazing how many people meet at your place and remain good friends keeping contact long after the holiday is over.

Thank you and see you June/July for our main family holiday !

Best regards Wayne & Linda.

Hi Chris and your Lovely Family
This is just to thank you to a wonderful family for providing me with a lovely and safe holiday in Polis (May 2010). As I was on my own I was, of course, more than a little nervous about my first trip to Cyprus. I need not have worried as everything was organised to make my holiday seamlessly enjoyable. 
I was met at the airport by Andreas. He didn't complain about the 2 hour delay or the fact that it was almost midnight and my electric wheelchair now only turned in circles.
Eva and her daughter Nitsa produced the most amazing home cooked meals, but more importantly made me feel totally at home and part of the family.
I spent many relaxing hours floating in the large, beautifully warm, heated swimming pool accessed by a hoist, followed by lazing on the raised sunbeds just metres away from the ice creams. I took advantage of all excursions and activities on offer including a trip to Paphos Market and Harbour, a boat ride, a local Greek Night and a trip to the mountains.  
Everyone I me at the complex was friendly and included me, so I never felt lonely. I am sure I have made some lasting friends. Like most of the visitors, I booked a further holiday and I really can't wait to return in September.
Highly recommended for all.  Well done Chris & co.
Thanks again

Hi Chris, Eva, Nitsa, Andreas and the rest of your lovely family.

Just wish to say what a wonderful time we had yet again at C & A. The big WOW factor for us was the heated swimming pool......what an absolute godsend.  Any person with aches and pains or a low tolerance to the cooler temperatures will relish in the  heated pool....it was unbelievable, like having a bath without the bubbles !!!
Andreas, a great big thanks to you...the tour you took our party of 9 on was amazing.  The market in Paphos, the harbour/marina, sea caves, coral bay, banana plantations etc....all things we could never have possibly seen without your experience in taking guests to places of interest on your Island.  It was a truly wonderful experience.  Your knowledge of Flora and Fauna has no bounds......a truly magnificant day out. Thank you so very much.   You have the patience of a saint, you are so caring and thoughtful, nothing is too much trouble, especially loading and off loading my hubby Pete in his wheelchair.  We are all eternally greatful to you.
Eva, Nitsa and Charoulla.....what can we say.  As ever the food in the restaurent was truly devine.  So much hard work and preparation which is a team effort by all of you.  All fresh ingredients, prepared and cooked in your own restaurent.  The BBQ night(thanks to Andreas for his part ), and the Sri Lankan night were amazing.  Every one of your guests left with a full tummy and a very big smile.  Well done to you all.
Chris...what can we say, thats never been said.....in our eyes, there are 2 'gods'....you being the second.  You never cease to amaze us.  So much thought and consideration is put into every single thing you do to ensure that all your guests feel special.  What you have achieved regardless of your own limitations and disability is truly honourable.  Well done, you
Its been a pleasure spending time with you and your wonderful family.
Our love to you all, Sara, Mandana and especially Kumar.

Dear Chris and family,

                                I have now been home for a week and have gradually returned to the old routine. I can't wait to return to Polis. I had such a good time. My photo's were printed yesterday and they brought back the warmth and the air scented with orange and lemon blossom along with the good times with friends who became family. It was difficult to leave. I recall the breakfasts in the sun with home made breads and jams, afternoons sharing recipes with Nitsa and Eva, evenings sharing dinner with the family and through out the wonderful hospitality that you gave . The accessibility was wonderful and so was the electric wheelchair that I hired. I was able to whizz along to Latchi along the coastal path. Groves of giant wild fennel and fields of yellow flowers flowed down to the blue sea. I also loved the little restaurants and cafes in Polis which is very Cypriot and full of character. The swallows arrived within a day or two of our arrival and by the time we left they were busy nest building swooping and chattering across the square.

                              I must recommend the trip that we did with Andreas to the new museum at Steni which shows Cypriot village life. The window that it gave to the past was enhanced by visiting with the family who were able to relate their own memories of how it used to be.

                                On this trip I travelled with  a friend . Usually I am an independent wheelchair traveller. I now know that Polis and C and A apartments can be a good holiday for the independent wheelchair traveller. Thanks again for a wonderful holiday and you will see me again.

                      With love to you all.

Hei Chris ja koko perhe

Olimme luonanne pääsiäisen vietossa 2010.
Meitä oli lentokentällä vastassa Teidän oma invataksi ja oli ihanaa huomata kuinka sydämellisesti meidät toivotettiin tervetulleiksi.
Niin alkoi lomamme, vaikkakin Inna ja minä olimme työmatkalla pyörätuolia käyttävän istuvan Kallen avustajina.
Hotellinne on aivan ihana ja liikunta rajoitteiselle ja pyörätuolia käyttävälle henkilölle todella toimiva paikka.
Ruoka oli erinomaista ja monipuolista. Ja jälkiruokina aina jotain ihanaa Cyproslaista herkkua.
Palvelu oli loistavaa ja kärsivällisyyttä riitti, vaikka meidän hieman huonolla englanninkielellä juttelusta ei meinannu aina saada selvää. ;)
Yhtenä päivänä kävimme kiertoajelulla ja pääsimme katsomaan Pafoksen shoppailu paikkoja ja hyviä ruokailu paikkoja. Samalla meitä ajelutettiin meren rannalla, jossa näimme mitä mahtavampia maisemia.
Viikko kului nopeasti ja kotiinlähtö alkoi hieman haikeissa merkeissä. Kiva palata kotiin, mutta jo viikossa saimme Teistä ystäviä joiden luokse on kiva joskus tulla uudelleen.
Luonanne oloa voisi enemmänkin sanoa "kylässä" käynniksi, kuin hotelli lomaksi.
Teidän ystävällisyys ja palvelu jäi lämmöllä mieliimme.
Hyvällä mielellä voin suositella paikkaanne muillekin.
Hyvää kesää Teille kaikille ja kesä on tulossa Suomeenkin..Tosin appeliinit eivät täällä kasva kotimme pihoissa, edes kesällä.
Ystävällisin terveisin Sirpa, Inna ja Kalle Lahdesta

We'd both like to thank you and your family for a wonderful week at your lovely apartments. It's so comforting to have found somewhere that is so exactly set up to the demanding standards of those who need them most. You cannot believe how much stress and strain that takes away from travelling into the unknown. As a result we relaxed far beyond where we thought we would get to! It was also so nice to be taken into the warmth of your family set up and the close knit experience that you all so obviously enjoy together.

We will come again - we just don't know when.

Until then, keep up the good work!

November 2009 -- the James family, 2 able-bodied and Adrian in a wheelchair.  An excellent holiday starting from the time the booking was done via Chris (excellent communication) on the Internet.  Have plenty of confidence in Andreas, who did a superb job of transporting us all from Paphos airport to Polis and back in a specially adapted vehicle.  He was extremely friendly, and a mine of information, informing us that there was little he could not do within his "department" in the family-run business. On arrival at Eva’s Apartments we were made to feel most welcome initially by Chris and his mother Eva and soon after by the remainder of this lovely Cypriot family, not forgetting Kumar who was always around and so helpful in every way.  We had reserved 2 one-bedroomed apartments which even exceeded our expectations, being exceptionally clean, quiet, functional and spacious.  They are also well equipped for self catering but we discovered Eva’s breakfasts far too tempting to miss, not only for the range of food available but also presenting the opportunity for socialising with the rest of the family as well as other guests of different nationalities - the world was put right on more than one occasion!  We were extraordinarily lucky with the weather and arrived in time to benefit from the now heated pool - superb in all ways including the hoist.  Hiring a scooter via Chris is easily done and proved worthwhile in getting around especially along the coast via a recently constructed footpath to Latchi.  Of course the beautiful Akamas Peninsula is close at hand. Local restaurants are excellent and friendly as are the locals themselves, factors which have attracted us back to different parts of Cyprus over many years.  Thank you so much Chris, Eva, Andreas (busy when we left either in drying out his supply of pecan nuts or visiting his favourite coffee house!) and the rest of the family – and, of course, Kumar - we hope very much to meet you all again before too long.

Thank you again for a most memorable holiday and we hope that members of the family who are receiving treatment are making good progress.  You can be very proud of the facilities that you provide.

We had a tremendous time at C&A Apartments. We enjoyed your family and the home cooked meals. Our apartment was brandnew and very convenient.

I would like to sincerely thank you very much for the very enjoyable time we had in C&A Apartments. The apartment we stayed in was very well laid out, specially for two wheelchair users. Eva and Nitsa must be two of the best cooks we have experienced. I remember the beef and Yorkshire pudding with all the trimmings dinner which was scrumptious, a taste of home in Cyprus. We would like to personally thank you Chris for being a very pleasent, helpful and approachable host, who went out of his way to ensure you had a great holiday. We would also like to thank Andreas for the transport to and from the airport and the trip to Paphos Market and the Paphos Mosiasc. But most of all for being so jolly and great fun to be around, a true gentleman! Kumar the handyman who made a few adjustments to Clares wheelchair, who we could not compliment enough for his care. We would like to compliment the Bulgarian cleaning lady for her diligent work in the apartment. A great location with great restaurants all around Polis Square, very accessible. Not forgetting our little friend Dimitri, who was great fun to be around, who holds more information then a IBM Computer. I hope we did not leave anyone out. We will hopefuly return in the not so distant future.

Liebe Familie Neophytou,
nachdem wir zwei wundervolle Ferienwochen in eurer Apartmentanlage verbringen durften und wieder zurück in Deutschland sind, denken wir noch  sehr gerne an diese schöne Zeit zurück. Da wir bereits seit vielen Jahren  hier Gast sein durften, war es für uns dennoch eine Premiere, denn wir hatten ein Apartment in dem neu erbauten Gebäude. Hier sei erwähnt, dass ein ansprechendes Ambiente und die mit viel Liebe eingerichteten Studios den Gästen einen angenehmen Aufenthalt versprechen.Die Anlage ist nicht nur für behinderte Menschen ausgerichtet, sondern bietet Familien und Alleinreisenden einen erholsamen Aufenthalt. Besonders angetan waren wir vom neuen Service : Frühstück und Abendessen im Hause. Der Dank geht hier an Eva und Nitza, die die Gäste und uns mit ihren zypriotischen Speisen verwöhnen und täglich abwechselungsreiche und schmackhafte Mahlzeiten anbieten. Auch Andrew sei nicht vergessen, der beim wöchentlichen Barbecue, der Chef am Grill ist und fantastische Grillspezilitäten zubereitet. Unser Dank geht auch an Chris, der stets ein offenes Ohr für die Gäste hat und sich stets um deren Wohlbefinden bemüht. Zu guter letzt möchten wir uns auch bei Charoulla und Andrew jun. bedanken, die in excellenter Weise den Service  übernommen haben. Somit können wir allen interessierten Urlauber nur die Empfehlung geben, dass ein Aufenthalt bei C & A stets abseits vom
Pauschaltourismus allen individuellen Wünschen gerecht wird.
Man kommt als Gast und geht als Freund.
Danke an alle

Last time we visited it was Spring 2007 and it was a perfect temperature, hot but not too hot, and all the blossom was out. After a tough couple of years with multiple operations the medics finally gave the all clear and we headed straight back to C and A to enjoy your lovely studios and pool. Andreas met us at the airport and we were whisked from Paphos to Polis in your brilliant transport. We were curious to see the new block and wondered whether it would change the feel of the place as we remembered it. The architects and builders have done a remarkable job and you would never know it was newly built as the fabulous trees link the whole site together. The new dining room is wonderful and enables guests to enjoy not only Eva's famous breakfasts but also evening meals.
We loved the way guests were invited to make a dish for a meal and Nadine's (German) cheescake was memorable. Other highlights were helping to prepare Mosphylo ( a fruit we've never seen before)  to make the fruit jelly for breakfast toast. Andreas is a fund of knowledge about gathering wild fruit/mushrooms etc and Nitsa's Demetri is a big Liverpool fan. We had the pleasure of seeing him dancing for joy when his team beat Man United , after a run of being beaten.

Many of the best memories of our holiday were connected with the family and other guests. You will know what I mean when you spend a holiday at C and A Apartments.

Hi Chris, and all the Family,
Well it's been wet and cold here lately and the heating is getting cranked up to prevent frostbite.  What a fab holiday we had. Troublefree transfers from and to the Airport was a fabulous start to our holiday.
 What a dream !!!We arrived very late at night and we received such a lovely welcome from the family, the Studio Apartment was well set out. When it was  made known to you that Dave was struggling a tad to manouvre into bed, it was sorted pronto. Hey presto shorter legs put on ( the Bed. not Dave !!)
What a lovely welcoming family atmosphere you have provided, the food and eating with friends and family make for a very happy holiday memory.
 We really did enjoy the walk to the Beach and Latchi ( both "our" long scenic and the direct route). The hard fought campaign for wheelchair accessibility was well worth it Chris. We know there is more to come.
We have made many friends and keep in touch by e-mail.
We hope to return in the near future, will let people here know of the fantastic facilities you have there in sunny Cyprus, which you deliver with love, care and a smile.
Lots of love Sue and Dave xx

Hallo Chris and family,

Back on Dutch soil where it is now fall, 13 degrees, with great pleasure we look back on our second holiday to Cyprus. Weather and relax and a richer experience: parasailing, it was fantastic. Flat tires of the wheelchair was no problem, everything was settled immediately, the hiring of an electric wheelchair is definitely recommended, it makes transportation easier. The journey to and from the airport without problems thanks to Andreas.
With meals from Eva and Nitsa our weight increased a few pounds, so now on a diet. In this we thank you all for your efforts and hospitality.

Greetings from Jan and Jannie Lubbinge, Hessel and Lotty Nijenhuis

Hi Chris and Family,

I've been home a few weeks and thought it was about time I thanked you for the great holiday and hospitality at your little haven tucked away in Polis.  The moment I arrived I knew i would enjoy my time, your Mothers warm welcome and all the friendly people made me feel comfortable instantly!

Being in a Wheelchair I was delighted to find your apartments to be as accessible as my own home.  The excursions you put on for people are great especially in your Taxi's fitted with ramp and clamps which your Father drives (he's such a character!! ) Everything is well organized and your family put a great deal of effort in.

I found everyone socialized and the food your sister cooks is amazing (thanks Nitsa) mealtimes are a joy, with all your family integrating with guests and helping people mix and make friends! The Authentic Greek barbecue your dad does is amazing and is very popular among all the guests, the turnout for them is always good.

You can have a worry free holiday at C&A which you don't find in many places. Knowing that Mobility aids like Scooters, Electric Chairs, Hoists etc are readily available, And there is always someone on hand to help if any problem arises!

Thanks to your Mum, Dad, lovely sisters, and ill be seeing you all next year!

Hello Chris,

It is sadly very hard to believe that it is already almost a fortnight since we returned from our holiday with you in Cyprus. We are just about ready for another one!
We very much enjoyed our stay with you again. The different room made a great difference to our stay and we thought you had done a very good job on the new accommodation and the way in which it blends in with what was already existing. We enjoyed having our breakfast outside although it is not quite the same as having it freshly cooked by the pool.~
The extra meal availability, especially on the day of our arrival was most welcome and as ever the barbecue night was enjoyable and the food delicious. It was enjoyable for us to go for our walks in the sunshine but it was always a great relief to Brian to return to the air-conditioned room! It is amazing what a difference a couple of hours rest in an air-conditioned room has on the M. S. symptoms.
Our transfers to and from Paphos airport went very smoothly thanks to Andreas and Karoula. Please convey to them our thanks for this and especially for the interesting chat with Karoula on our return journey.
Many thanks to you all... Eva, Nitsa, Karoula, Andreas and of course to you Chris.
We look forward to having holiday with you again in the future.
Very best wishes from us both, Brian and Andrew

Hi Chris,

Most disabled people (and their partners) are often disappointed at the standard of accomodation provided when they book a holiday.Hoteliers often exaggerate (or even lie!) about facilities they offer and the poor old customer has to make the best of it.

At the C & A apartments every word on your website/brochure is true. Facilitiesare first class in every way-the apartments are roomy,have all the space and equipment needed for all types of disabilities.

The bonus to all this, of course,are the people providing these facilities.Yourself,Eva,Andreas and family are the' icing on the cake '.Nobody could offer a warmer or more caring environment for those people with special needs.

Needless to say you will be lumbered with our presence next year and the fact that we cannot have the room requested despite booking 12 months in advance shows how popular you are!

Best Wishes-Charles and Judy from the UK.

Hi dear Chris & all the Family !!!
Once again I would like to thank you all for making our stay there very pleasant and it truely felt like I was visiting family. I am very impressed by the whole setup and can't tell enough people how wonderful it is especially for disabled people, I almost wish I had enough money to start something like that somewhere myself. I think the most rewarding thing was that I heard that ALL the visitors that were there at the same time as we were made such positive comments and that they had returned there or will be returning there again. You all work so hard that you deserve the rewards of your labour. Best of all is that I have made new friends and hope to come and visit you all 
again.

"Sadly, in this world of increasingly 'couldn't care less', holidays for the less able could become more of an ordeal than a pleasure.  BUT WAIT NO MORE, if you want to get away, look no further than C & A.  In this frustrating desert of disability you will find an OASIS IN POLIS run by a caring family you only dream of meeting, whose motto should read......'YOUR NEEDS ARE OUR DEEDS, UNCONDITIONALLY!'.  I swear you will return, we definitely will.  Thank you all so much for a tremendous holiday, with love from Michael, Karen and Keith."

Hello Chris
Just to say sorry we left too early to say goodbye and thank you once again for making our holiday one to remember.  We have seen our photo on your website and one of me being lowered in the hoist from the boat into the blue lagoon - what a wonderful experience - I am very serious when I said I wanted to try the para-sailing as the weather did not permit me this time I am hoping that next year I will be able - so would you please check for us to see if we can book the pool facing studio, no 7, from next year 29th June for two weeks or as near to this date as possible. Steve said would you thank your Dad for the olive oil he cannot stop talking to everyone about the best tasting olives in the world and the best olive oil Andreas makes from them - he will be a good sales rep if you need one - he hopes he can have more sent to him when it runs out.  We will be going out tomorrow to buy the neck pillars you wanted - we will not forget - when we buy them we will of course send them straight to you.  Thanks again for making us feel we have had a well earned rest, relax and wonderful holiday.  Please confirm dates asap

Hello Chris and the rest of the family,

We like to thank you again for a fantastic holiday. We love Cyprus and especially Polis. Here with C&A appartments we have everything we want. A good accomodation, a swimming-pool suitable for Piet and also the beach, we like that very much. And also very important you and the whole family.

Every time we come we feel like to come home. Eva and Nitsa with the cooking and backing ( the cakes). Andreas and Charoula for the helping with the barbecue.( we hope that she is not angry with us about the rose wine) And not to forget you, Chris. It is always pleasant to talk with you. Although there are much more clients you have always time for a little chat. It is also very nice to get clean towels and sheets without asking for it. So we also like to thank Katja and Kuma.

Probably we will come again next year but it depends how it goes with Piet and also which period I can get free from my work. We saw that you had already put our picture on the guestbook.

Thanks for your email. Our vacation with you was very successful. You made our whole family feel themselves welcome and you took good care of us. We look back to Jarmo's party with warm feelings. We used your transport services and hired a wheelchair. We were satisfied with those services and we can recommend them to others also. Transportation was always right on time as agreed.
The autumn is on it's way here in finland and it's getting colder. Soon it will be winter and we'll have snow.
Best wishes to everyone from the whole Pernu family.

Hi Chris and the rest of the gang,
 
I've just come back from my 4th wonderful holiday at your apartments and I'm already planning my next visit! I've never been anywhere where I feel so at home, completely relaxed and part of a community. I met lots of great people during my stays.
Chris and his family are so accomodating and are always ready to help with any problem. It came as a great relief this year when I didn't have enough medication that I could call on Nitsa to help. Then when my wheelchair broke and I told Chris I had a problem and he replied 'nothing is a problem' before getting Kumar to fix it for me (Thanks Kumar!) I think that pretty much sums up C&A apartments-'nothing is a problem' and it makes for a lovely and truly relaxing holiday.
I love it here and I'll definitely be back!!

Our whole family is able to relax and enjoy your wonderful hospitality, spacious rooms,inviting pool and glorious sunshine. Marie-Laure and I especially enjoyed the scuba diving with Sarah and Jenny. Of course the boat trip is a must for us too. It was lovely to meet friends from last year who went at the same time, as well as make new friends especially 'the darlings' from Edinburgh.  As always a fabulous 2 week break and we shall see you all very soon.

Hello Chris
Sorry for the delay but once you get back the holiday feels like a long time ago. For someone who did not stay at your fine hotel I can not express our gratitude enough for the help and attention you gave to me, Michelle and Adam
You certainly made an impression with Adam and even I did not think he would be man enough to go in the “sharks” cage to enter the lovely sea from the boat trip. But you made the difference and gave him the confidence to do it, not just once but we even came back to do it again. We looked at your rooms and we were very impressed with detail and it was clear to see what a difference you have made by being confined to the wheelchair and realising how space and facilities are so important.
Your family and friends were equally as charming as you and we would happily recommend your accommodation to anyone with or with disabilities especially in a country where the sun always shines
Once again, thanks for all your help and pass my regards to your mum and dad, sister and the Boss, Demetrious.
From Derek, Michelle and a very pleased Adam

Hi Chris, Nitsa, Eva, Andreas and Charoula, 
Once again we had a great time returning to C&A Apartments, it was just like coming home,we knew where the supermarket was and we even knew our apartment number!! Much to Peter's disgust as he fell in love with the fabulous new block. Lana loved every minute of our holiday as did we, swimming, chatting, sunbathing... what can i say fabulous. We will definately be back and I have given a couple of leaflets to our friends and 1 is very interested. We can not recommend strongly enough that every family should visit C&A apartments, even if you dont have a disability, just for the fun and of course the sun...though I have checked the weather and Chris beware it is going to rain during the winter!!! Ha Ha.
Bye for now lots of love  Carolyn, Peter (Richard) and of course the naughty Lana xxxx

Hi Chris, Eva, Andreas, Nellie!
I am back at work and Gearoid and Yvette are back at school, JP has an extended holiday so he flew to friends in Boston for one month. Hope you are all well , we can’t tell you enough what a great holiday we had and how lovely it was to meet you all.
This was our first stay at your lovely home and we felt like we were leaving our family when we came home. The warm welcome and the perfect apartment made this stay with you a joy. We fell in love with Polis and Latchi, the town square in polis with all the great restaurants and the harbour at Latchi were perfect for us. The warm Cypriot sunshine and the friendship offered without reservation from all of you made this a perfect holiday for us. Myself and Sean Paul loved the para gliding and Gearoid and Yvette the speed boat in Latchi and the swim in the sea off the boat trip. Cyprus is an amazing country until this it was only a name on the map to me.
The apartment was perfect for me as a wheelchair user  and having the PA come in was perfect and let my family enjoy themselves also. This place is magical. We met some wonderful people of all ages and abilities and were made to feel safe and welcome and part of your lovely family. Any one thinking about a holiday in Cyprus choose C & A Apartments, because believe me “Its not just for wheelchairs”  !
The Place is a credit to you all and I cannot wait to come back. Andreas made the BBQ and what a special night by the swimming pool. The meals were great and also our trips – I wont go on except to say I had my hired scooter which enabled me to go where I wanted myself and needless to say I set off on the wheelchair path to the sea. It was breathtaking.
Love from
Kathleen

Dear Chris,
Дорогие Крис, Андреас, Ница, Карулла, Димитрий и Сара! Большое спасибо за прекрасный отпуск в вашем замечательном отеле! Мой муж тяжело болен и передвигается на инвалидной коляске, поэтому для
нас было особенно важно найти отель, где мы могли бы обходиться без осторонней помощи, ездить на экскурсии, купаться и загорать. В отеле всё продумано до мелочей, приспособлено для людей на инвалидных
колясках. Благодаря электрическому подъёмнику, мы могли пересаживаться из кровати в коляску без посторонней помощи. Андреас - замечательный гид! Я даже не заметила, как за короткое время, благодаря его рассказам превратилась в эксперта по Кипру. :) Но самое главное, он знает все особенности и нюансы, касающиеся транспортировки людей на колясках. Нам было не страшно довериться его квалифицированной помощи и заботе. Огромное отдельное спасибо за поездку в Пафос, которую он для нас организовал!
Так же хочу сказать огромное спасибо Нице и Карулле за замечательные завтраки и ужины! Очень жалко, что мы не смогли познакомиться с твоей мамой! Надеюсь, нам удастся сделать это в следующий раз.
Надеемся, что ещё не раз приедем в ваш уютный отель и увидимся с вашей замечательной семьёй!
С горячим приветом из России, Дмитрий и Виктория Кучеровы.

Hi Chris 

We just wanted to say how much we loved our stress free holiday at your appartments, for the 4th time. As always the appartment was immaculate, as was the swimming pool and of course the wonderful hospitality shown to us by all of your family and staff.

This year, my husband Nigel and I renewed our wedding vows while on holiday to celebrate our 10th anniversary. I have to say that if anyone else is either considering getting married, or renewing their wedding vows in Cyprus then DO IT!!! It was the most amazing experience,and certainly one we will never forget. Special thanks has to go to Nitsa,who planned and organised everything for us mainly through emails and phone calls. She is a true diamond,and made sure everything went smoothly. Also special thanks to Eva who cooked us the best roast pork dinner we have ever tasted!

As ever, Andreas (or taximan as my children love to call him) was always able to take us where ever we wanted to go, and met us and took us to and from the airport with no problems whatsoever.

So to sum it all up- FANTASTIC!!

Hi Chris,

With reference to our latest "stay" with you, thank you once again for a tremendous two weeks ( 27'th June-11'th July ) and congratulations on the success of the expansion to the set-up at C & A.

I say congratulations because there was always a doubt that "small was good" and would it be possible to maintain the high standards set with the original apt's but we need not have worried because as usual there were no problems with transfers ( Andreas on the ball as usual ), hired hoist, and powered chair, and the new appartments are even better than the old ones, being more spacious with fixtures and fittings to a very high standard.

We feel the extra room in the patio areas and around the pool is a real bonus and the fact that there are more clients means that people are mixing better and making more friends. The evenings in particular were really good fun with a lot of people taking advantage of the improved kitchen/dining arrangements, whilst there is nothing wrong with the tavernas in the town and would recomend most of them to anyone the fact is that Eva & Nitsa's cooking is superb !

So it would seem that facilities have actually improved at C & A, but one thing that remains the same is the friendly service and family atmosphere where nothing is too much trouble to your family and staff if it concerns the comfort and well being of your guests.

Once again thank you .....from your friends in the frozen north !

Very best regards, Wayne Linda & Stephen ( Northumberland ).

Back less than a week but it feels like ages ago since we came to stay!
This was my second stay with you guys and this time round was just as enjoyable as the first. You welcomed us into your family from day 1 and thats what makes C and A apartments different from anywhere i have ever been. All of the guests are like one big happy family!
The parasailing was amazing - something i never thought i would ever be able to do, and i enjoyed the boat trips just as much as i did last time!
You all work so hard to keep the guests happy but it never seems like a chore for any of you.
Especially big thanks go to Chris for rescuing us from that spider- have lost count how many times i have told that story!
And next year Nitsa i WILL get the recipe for your chips!!!!
Thanks to you all and see you again next year, keep in touch

Back home a week and missing you all, Alan is back at work and I am back into it too. Hope you are all well , we can’t tell you enough what a great holiday we had and how lovely it was to meet you all.
This was our first stay at your lovely home and we both felt like we were leaving our family when we came back to England. The warm welcome and the perfect apartment made this stay with you a joy. We fell in love with Polis and Latchi, the town square in polis with all the great restaurants and the harbour at Latchi were perfect for us. The warm Cypriot sunshine and the friendship offered without reservation from all of you made this a perfect time for us. We have just about recovered from the para gliding but miss the boat trip and swimming in the sea every day but it was an amazing experience for both of us.
The apartment was perfect for me(Sue) as a wheelchair user but we both have to say that anyone would be hard pressed to find a more comfortable and welcoming place to stay (whether they have a disabled family member , or none at all). This place is magical. We met some wonderful people of all ages and abilities and were made to feel safe and welcome and part of you lovely family. Any one thinking about a holiday in Cyprus choose C & A Apartments, because believe us when we say “Its not just for wheelchairs”  !

Hi Chris,

It doesn't seem possible that we have been home for two weeks. Once we went back to work it seemed as though we hadn't been away. Thank goodness we have some lovely photos to remind us. We have looked at the photos you have posted and it was lovely to see there the people we met while staying with you.

We all had a great time, especially Louise who was able to be independent and not worry about people staring at her, especially when she was going into the pool. She really enjoyed the pool as she never goeas swimming here.It was so easy to get her in and out there because of the hoist .The facilities at the apartment made it so much easier for us all that we were all able to relax and have such an enjoyable stay. We would especially recommend that guests hire a scooter ( if suitable for them).  It saved Peter and I having to push Louise around in her wheelchair in the heat and it gave her independence.  Thank you so much for letting us use the larger scooter as while as the one ordered.  You certainly knew best about that! Thank you to all the family for being so helpful and making us so welcome. We will certainly be back - finances permitting!

I promised Nitsa a recipe for Mars Mousse which is attached.  I hope she enjoys making it, and eating it!

Best Wishes to everyone

Hej til alle på C&A

Fra Bytoften, skal der lyde den største tak til familien i Polis, for en rigtig fantastisk ferie, for Hanne og Gert, samt Bodil og Tina. Det har været en rigtig oplevelsesrig uge, både på indtryk og dejlige minder. Familien på C&A er super fantastiske til at få os til at føle os som en del af deres familie. Vi har haft en utrolig dejlige uge i et hyggeligt selskab, og vi har fået set alt det vi gerne ville se, og som vi kunne nå og se denne gang. Håber at vi en dag får mulighed for at komme en tur til Polis igen,det er helt sikkert et sted man sagtens kan komme tilbage til. Vi kan kun sende de bedste anbefalinger til alle der overvejer en tur til Cypern. At vælge en ferie hos C&A, er ferie.

Mange tak for den dejlige uge vi havde hos jer i april 2009.

Kirsten og Kirsten var ledsager for Lone som sidder i kørestol. Lone syntes selv at hun havde en fantastisk tur, alle steder var man imødekommende og forstående over for hendes handicap og alle var utrolig hjælpsomme.

Hotellet er rigtig godt indrettet for en person i kørestol og hjælpemidlerne er ok.

Der var en hjertelig atmosfære på hotellet og vi følte os som en stor familie. Det var for Lone og os selv en stor fornøjelse at møde nogen fra andre lande som også er handicappet.

I byen er der mange muligheder for at komme ind i butikker og på restauranter selv om man sidder kørestol.

Her i Danmark har vi rost jeres hotel meget også til Christravel, så vi håber i får besøg af rigtig mange danskere.

Vi havde en rigtig god tur hjem.

Hilsen pigerne fra Danmark

Hello Mr Neophytou,
"Once again we have had a wonderful relaxing holiday at your apartments. It really is a little tranquil oasis where you can really forget the cares of the world. Thanks again for the excellent hospitality offered by all of your family, they truly make you feel at home and very much a part of the 'extended C&A family.' It would be wrong of us not to congratulate you on the excellent new apartments, they offer what is top quality accommodation by any standards. Already planning a return holiday in 2010, see you all then." Gill & Rob.

Hello Chris

Thank you for a lovely holiday, and your company. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

We arrived back in England on time with no problems -apart from the weather, which was wet and cold !!

I think I made a mistake with your email address, so if you would like some of our photos, please reply with the email you want them to come to.

Dear Chris and family

Reading all the letters in the guestbook, looking to write something that wasn’t yet written, I must conclude that everything was already said!

So we also thank you very much

-for the wonderful time in Polis

-for the comfortable housing

-for the delicious breakfasts and diners made by Eva, Nitsa, Charoulla and some others

-for the interesting excursions  guided by Andreas and Charoulla

-for the swimming-dates with Chris

-for the sunrise session with Eva and Nelly

-for the possibilities and attention you give to disabled and non-disabled  people

-for the very friendly family atmosphere you create all the time.

‘If you are happy, I’m happy to’  dixit Nitsa ………….

Believe me, that’s your secret! And it works!

Although never expecting to visit a place twice, yours will be an exception for us.

Might you meet us again next year! 

Best regards,

Anne, Rita, Erna

We've just come back from our fifth visit to C & A apartments and it was the best yet!  We relaxed the minute we got there and enjoyed a fortnight of good food, relaxation and, best of all, the company of people we've come to know and love.  The apartments are just right, the local restaurants friendly and keen to make themselves as accessible as possible.  Roll on next year's holiday!

Efter vores ferie hos C&A apartments, er det svært, at beskrive med få ord, hvor dejligt vi har haft det.
Men fælles for hele vores familie, er at vi har haft en rigtig dejlig ferie. Det er som at bo hos familie, vi ikke kendte på forhånd.
Eva, Andreas, Chris, Nitze og Chris - og selvfølgelig Andrew og Dimitri, har en stor plads I vores hjerte.  Vi skal helt sikkert på besøg igen.  Det var et dejlig sted at bo, både for vores far, som sidder i kørestol og fik rigtig meget ud af opholdet, men også for os andre, der ikke havde specielle behov. Stor tak til C&A.

Hi Chris & family          
This was our 5^th time and it just gets better and better.  The quality of the new apartments far surpassed our expectations, you guys should be very proud of yourselves.  Your family especially Nitsa couldn’t do more for us and we definitely feel part of your Cypriot family.  The only sad point of the holiday was that Eva went away for a well deserved holiday so we didn’t get to see as much of her as we would have liked but all being well we’ll see you again in September.   
Sending lots of big Yorkshire hugs and love to all.

We have been telling all our family about the wonderful holiday we both had staying with you , about the warm welcome you, your Mum ,Dad,Sisters and the rest of the family gave us, we didn't feel like customers but part of the family it was such a great holiday and we are hoping to come back soon. We really didn't know what to expect, but you and your family plus meeting lots of other people in the same situation as us made the holiday.
We think we've brought the weather back with us as its warm and sunny, although still not as warm as Cyprus

 Hello Chris, Eva and Family,
I am not sitting in the shade writing this although the weather isn’t too bad (for England). I have had a few problems with my computer but its working ok now. Well anyway we had a very pleasant drive back to pafos and we drove along the old coast road to the air port and when we got there it was nearly empty, when  we checked in. The flight back to the UK was also very civilized. The plane was only half full! We eventually got home @ 1am your time Saturday the 2^nd
Pam and I would like to thank you, very much, for your ‘hospitality’ It was more like staying with friends than a holiday apartment. We both enjoyed our long discussion with you about Cyprus / South Africa / Las Vegas and your ‘posh lift’.
I hope that we shall be able to come back and see you, all again, soon Your Mum and Sisters cooking was grate and your Dads Lemonade ‘Fabulous’ and I still think ,if you’re going to install solar heating, for your pool ,the panels could go on top of bar area which would save a lot of hassel and maintenance. And you should  invest in your local supermarket or get them to donate all the points from your guests purchases to a good cause (equipment for RM)well that’s what I think
Happy Friday and we wish you all ‘Good Health

Det här är ett mycket unikt hotell för fysiskt handikappade med medföljande hjälp.

Det är inte något vårdhem.

Det är nytt, frächt, välutrustat. Du kan hyra de hjälpmedel du behöver.

Det är en härlig omtänksam familj du kommer till, stämningen är varm och vänlig.

Vi är inte handikappade utan hittade hit av en slump.

Vi har nu varit här för sjätte året på besök, och det är lika fantastiskt.

Liebe Eva, lieber Chris und die gesamte Familie,

ein wunderschöner,  2-wöchiger Urlaub ist viel zu schnell zu Ende gegangen. Ich möchte euch allen von ganzem Herzen für diese eindrückliche Zeit danken! Das neue Haus mit den großzügigen Appartements ist sehr gut gelungen. Alles was man zum Wohlfühlen braucht ist  vorhanden, das Bad, der große Wohnraum und das geräumige Schlafzimmer sind einfach gut durchdacht.

Das Beste aber ist die Atmosphäre in eurem Haus! Dieser liebevolle und empathische Umgang mit den Gästen vermittelt ein Gefühl von Geborgenheit und Toleranz!

Ich habe wunderbare Erinnerungen an die Zeit mit euch, an die Bootsfahrt, an den Ausflug zu Aphrodites Bad, die herrlich Gegend um Polis und Zypern. Die Möglichkeiten die bei euch geboten werden, auch ohne Auto, die Insel kennen zu lernen, sind einfach toll. Ein besonderes Lob geht an  Eva und Nitza die uns mit super Essen und Backwaren verwöhnt haben und nicht nur die, alle, Andreas,  Chris und Chris, Carol, Mandana, Andrew, Sarah und Dimitri der beste Skippo Spieler von Polis, sowie Kuma haben diesen Urlaub zu einem einmaligen Erlebnis werden lassen. ICH DANKE EUCH DAFÜR! Und ich komme wieder, versprochen!

Hello Chris, Eva, Andreas, Nitsa, Chris, Charoulla, Mandana, Sara, Dimitri and everybody else,
This is what me and my parents would like to write in your guestbook:
”We spent an unforgettable week 14 -21 April in Polis, at the caring and lovely company of Eva, Andreas, Chris and the whole family. First the weather was like spring, then it turned to beautiful, warm summer. We enjoyed tremendously the hospitality of the Neophytou family, making friends with them and most of the other guests. As the most able-bodied person of our 3-member group, I loved noticing how peer support works even between complete strangers. Every more or less disabled person who comes to Evas Apartments has the life easy and comfortable there, unlike very often in their normal everyday life. And the able-bodied companions learn a lot from their new not-so-able-bodied friends!
We all fell in love with Cyprus, Pafos, Polis, Latsi, the Trodos mountains, the bright blue sea, the sunsets, the fish meze, the halloumi-mint Easter bread… and the wine of course. But most of all, we fell in love with the Cypriot way of receiving people. Thank you all so dearly! What this week meant to my elderly parents is well reflected by my Mum’s words: I was certain that this was going to be the very last trip in our life, but now I know we must come here again
With big hugs, Hanna, Eeva and Paavo from Helsinki, Finland”
Hope to hear from you soon!
Love, Hanna

Dear C & A Tourist Apartments

Our holiday with you was more than we ever imagined possible.  The new apartments/studios were amazingly designed to make life easier in and around them, especially for the wheelchair user.  Wide doors, 'space', roll in shower with fixed shower seat,  and even rise and fall grab rails at either side of the toilet!

The pool was great and even had a hoist, what a treat for my stepdad Pete.

From landing at Pafos, and been greeted by C & A's accessible taxi, we knew we were going to be well looked after. Andreas had  the powerchair we'd  booked through GC Paraquip. What dedicated service.

We had all our breakfast catered for in the new extensions dining room...a well deserved treat for my mum.

We had a BBQ, this was great, all home cooked and catered for by the family at C & A.  Highly recommend it !

We enjoyed a stroll to Latchi on the accessible beach walk and went on the glass bottomed boat, even this had a hoist on board

We are so much looking forward to a return visit in October, cant wait.

On behalf of me and my family, thank you for making so many things possible,

Rach, Jay, Dawn and Pete

Hi Chris,
Just like to thank you and your family for a wonderful week’s stay. Yes we were lucky with the weather (a week of wall-to-wall hot sunshine), but even that couldn’t match the warmth of the welcome from all at C&A (and pretty much everywhere else as well!). Up till then I’d avoided anywhere catering for the disabled – maybe a refusal to accept my condition – but having seen how much more my wife and friends were able to relax, I realise I wasn’t being very considerate to them! This is now the pattern for future trips abroad – hopefully to C&A Apts again soon. Can’t wait! Quality of everything was great and people really anxious to help and do their best for you. Fantastic to be able to go for a swim (paddle!) again.
Really missing you all (and Eva’s wonderful breakfasts by the pool!)
See you again (hopefully) soon,
Kind regards,
Kev, Sue, John & Lynda

Dear Chris,
You will not believe it, but our return trip was perfect. We arrived at Stuttgart exactly on German time and with our entire luggage including the wheelchair.
At the moment we are busy sorting and storing the rich harvest which we raked in during our three week stay at C & A Apartments in Polis: three hundred pictures and – much more valuable – a big store of very fond memories.
We explored an island with a colourful history and an impressive landscape. We met interesting people who seriously tried to answer our endless questions.
We enjoyed the relaxed hospitality extended to us by you and your family which on the flight back home led Andreas to the conclusion that these where great holidays because "I could be just as handicapped as I wanted to be"

There is not much to add besides – THANK YOU –

With kind regards
Barbara, Andreas and Heiner Schenk

We arrived back in Bristol safe and sound.

The only problem with our holiday in Cyprus was that it was not long enough and we had to return to a frosty England. We could not have asked for anything more; the apartment had all we needed Pam was able to manage all the facilities and was particularly impressed with the bathroom and shower. Sitting in the sun, enjoying the company of you, your family and the other holidaymaker was just great.

Andreas was very helpful, having a minibus with a lift that works was a great relief (so often her in the UK we have to put up with ramps that do not wok on our unlevel surfaces and are to steep). The excursion we did he was very attentive and flexible in meeting our specific needs, we saw so much more of the island and its life that you could not get on a set tour.

We shall certainly look to visit you again, may be not next year as we already have other plans and have already passed on your flyers to our local MS Centre which Pam attends and have mentioned you to other who would welcome your type of holiday.

Good luck with completion of the building work, best wishes to you and all your family and collegues.

bye for now

Hi chris and family,

                               we arrived safely back in England,but had to scrape the ice of our van,before we could drive it.Dan would like to say a few words.

                          Iwould like to thank Chris and his family for making my first holiday abroad one to remember,you could not have been any more helpful,we were always greeted with a warm smile from Chris,and the guided tours with Andreas were especially informative,his local knowledge of the fruits of the forest was very interesting,i will certainly be recommending your apartments to my friends,the only negative point was when we tried to go paragliding,i think for the more severely disabled a visit to the centre to discuss the procedures of paragliding first would be more appropriate,we were a bit rushed and the people on the boat were a little afraid of my frailty,other than that it was 10 out of ten for your staff and facilities,hope everything goes well with your extension.

Dear Chris,
We had a wonderful holiday at Eva's apartments last year -- just right for someone in a wheelchair, so we booked a come back. But we were a little apprehensive -- could it be as good again? But Eva's welcome was as warm as ever, and Chris as attentive as ever. The thrill of being able to be hoisted into the pool -- and into the Mediterranean off the boat -- was as great as before. We had a great fortnight . We got soaked in rainstorms twice, but that was hardly the fault of the folk at C&A!

Hi Chris
One little paragraph in a Sunday paper lead to a wonderful stress free holiday in Cyprus.
The hire of a scooter, the hire of  transport from and to the airport were expertly organised for us.  The friendly welcome when we arrived (a day late!) was great and then to see the accommodation which met our needs exactly confirmed that we would have a great holiday. Jas was really confortable in both the folding scooter,which we took in the car, and the bigger one, on which he went to Latchi.
We had a lovely trip to Pathos with Adreas, and learnt a lot about olives on the way, as well as other things.
Bryn and David especially liked the boat trip and the stop for swimming.  Laura enjoyed relaxing on the beach in the evenings and we all enjoyed the wonderful food at places recommended by Chris as well as the barbeque at the pool side and Nitsa's wonderful cakes. Laura would want me to mention Andreas's capers as well!.
Thanks again to all the family and we look forward to seeing the completed extension.

Stuart and i visited C & A apartments for the second time there for 2 weeks, and as we were planning to get married this year in Polis, I knew C & A was the place to go, as everyone is so friendly and cant do enough for you. With Stuart being confined to a wheelchair it is definately stress free coming to stay here, as i know if i have forgotten anything or if anything goes wrong (like a wheel puncture), as it did on our trip to Paphos this year, i know that with the help and dedication from yourself Chris, your carer Kuma and your parents that the problem would be sorted which it was. It meant the world to us to have had you at the wedding celebrations, as it is just like being with family when we are with you, and we know we just have to say "Honeymoon Night tonight Chris" and we get complete peace although knowing that there is allways someone there to help if neede, all be it yourself, your dad Andreas, your mum Eva, your sister Nitsa or her husband..... Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. It really was great to know i had nothing else to worry about except the wedding, where as going to some other country and not knowing if they are proarly equipt for Stuart, and this also helped with caring for Stuart and allowed him to have a relaxing holiday......

From the moment we are met by Andreas at the airport to the return to the airport we are looked after in a very special way....Sadly we wont be back next year as with the little one on the way but we hope to see you all again in 2010...All of our love from the newly weds ......xxxx

We were with a group of eleven people from GRIM REIZEN from the Netherlands.

The boat trip we made was teriffic and we can advise everyone to do this trip.

Also we made a trip through the Trodos Mountains, Andreas gave much information and is a wonderful guide.

My husband Johny has primary progressive MS.  We hadn't been on holiday since our honeymoon in 2005, mainly due to the thought of travelling and dreading arriving to find our accommodation wasn't suitable and having a complete nightmare.  But C&A Apartments was absolutely perfect.

Chris is a very funny, charismatic guy and an inspiration to anyone finding themselves disabled and feeling unsure about how much they can do in life (we even went parasailing).  We really enjoyed his company and of course Eva, Andreas, lovely Nitsa (Chris's mother, father & sister) and Dimitri (Chris's nephew - what a character, all that energy - is he solar powered?!) and the ever-smiling Kumar, Chris's carer.  They have just got the balance completely right - it's a genuine family atmosphere which you feel a welcome part of immediately, but it's very relaxed and also easy to go off an do your own thing.

And I have to mention Eva's cooking - it's just to die for!

We met some wonderful people in the two weeks we stayed and learnt something from all of them.  Helen & Spiros, with his unending supply of jokes.  The Hayes: Suzanne, Steve and their beautiful Madeleine and Marie Laure; the Russells: Carolyn, Pete and the unforgettable Lana.  And Andy and his wife Xena (Warrior Princess!) and daughter Giga.  Andy taught Johny to swim without floats by not trying to use his legs, which was brilliant!

So we are hoping to return next year and repeat the experience as we had such a fab 2 weeks.  Thank you!!

Big love

Claire & Johny

Dear Chris and family
Wow, what more can we say. The holiday surpassed itself once more.  We were met by a happy smiling Andreas at Paphos airport who quickly loaded us and our luggage and headed off for Polis.  We were shown the tobacco plantations, his favourite Olive trees and all the fauna and flaura of your country......Even though this is yet another visit with you guys, things still are the same  and we are so happy to be greeted by Andreas.
On arrival at C & A, we were greeted once more by Eva and were already feeling relaxed and ready to start our holiday. Ice cold lemonade awaited us (home made of course) as well as the welcome pack we requested, and a pot of tea, even in your climate is still refreshing to us Brits.
The apartment after its renovations was  outstanding, and I  presume as  others before us will have said, your photographs certainly do not do it justice.  The brand new fitted kitchen with all appliances made for an easy life for us busy mums/wives.  A dishwasher, what bliss. You have really thought of everything to make life easier for the able bodied as well as those that are less able.
The pool area, once again, kept scrupiously clean and tidy and the pool checked every day.
The on site breakfasts were a godsend to us.  Like being in a hotel.  Eva took care of everything, be it a cooked English breakfast with home made pancakes, home made jams and marmalade, greek yoghurt and seasonal fruit, to cereal and toast.  What ever we wanted, all we needed to do was ask the night before and the banquet awaited us at our chosen time.  Bargain price too !! We ate at leisure around the poolside/poolbar.
Once again, the holiday was made special for us as Pete was able to make use of the Spring Float purchased on site.  This enabled him to lay relaxed in the pool, safely, for hours at a time. Kumar was very good at ensuring that there was enough shade around the pool for those who needed it, even though primarily he is not really there for the guests requests, and is only solely Chris's carer.
The food at the BBQ night was again out of this world as too was the company of the family and other guests.  No matter what health problems one may have, at C & A apartments, everyone comes together and unites as one.  Thats why we will always return to C & A .  Cant wait to see you guys soon.
Love and best wishes to everyone,  from Dawn, Pete, Rach, Nic and Steve

Yet another great holiday, Chris Eva and Andreas their usual helpful selves, nothing is too much trouble.  The weather was exceptionally hot but we can’t complain as we came back to lots of rain. The taxi transfers as usual were trouble free with Andreas waiting for us at the Airport and on the return managing to sweet talk airport staff to fast track us through to departures, thanks Andreas that was great!  All in all another stress free holiday.

Hi Chris
Another fabulous holiday at C&A Apartments.  This is our 5^th and 6^th time so that really says it all about why we keep coming back to you, for your great hospitality and friendship.  We had to have another emergency repair done to my electric wheelchair and it was taken care of quickly and without any fuss.  This is why we love staying with you, we have peace of mind that if anything goes wrong you can always fix it and we are secure in the knowledge that we will always have a fantastic time in your company and with all our lovely friends that we meet each year.

Hi Chris

            sorry it's taken a while to get back to you but we've been busy with work and getting Steve sorted in his new house. Having stayed with you for a second time ( 11'th to 25'th june ) in "No' 4" I am pleased to say the holiday was a complete success, due mainly to the accessability of the apartment and the availibility of relevant equipment ( electric wheel chair and hoist ). Add to this the sunshine.....the people......food.....beer....and all the other reasons we love coming to Cyprus how could the holiday fail ? But the major thing that made this year was the fact that Stephen got to swim in the sea for the first time in his 33 years ! and he followed  this up by going parasailing the next day !!.....believe me the whole of the north of England has heard of his exploits as he has not stopped talking about it since his return. Your apartments and facilities open up a whole new world for the disabled and those who care for them, once again thank you to you and your family,

                                  Wayne, Linda & Stephen.

PS. It is also worth a mention that the work to the new apartments did not disturb our holiday at all. I hope that Demitris ( the boss ) is keeping you all on your toes ( and that Nita has not yet strangled him ) also give our love to your lovely daughter Sarah.

Hi Chris,

Liebe Grüße an die besten Gastgeber.

Wir haben die 10 Tage in Eurem Appartement wie vor 9 Jahren sehr genossen. Ihr bietet Raum für Indiviualität und Gemeinschaft. Und Eure Gastfreundschaft ist so angenehm, dass man sich wie zu Hause fühlen kann. Danke für die vielen schönen Kaffee-Gespräche in großer und kleiner Runde. Integration von Nichtbehinderten in einer Ferienanlage, die für Körperbehinderte perfekt ausgestatt ist, ist wirklich nachahmenswert. Uns hat die Zeit beeindruckt!

Bye, bye,

till next time (perhaps two months !?) 

Lovely greetings to all of you (Eva, Andreas, Nitsa, Chris, Dimitri and his brother, Nelly, Mary, Kumar and his wife - and every one we have forgotten)

Ook de tweede keer was het een waar genoegen om Eva, Chris en Andreas te ontmoeten. Wat een gastvrijheid niets is deze mensen teveel.Het is al moeilijk genoeg om met 2 rolstoelers op reis te gaan en dan ook nog iets te vinden, waar alles wordt gedaan om het zo aangenaam en aangepast mogelijk te maken.

De verzorging 's morgens en "s avonds  was vooraf geregeld en door haar flexibele opstelling konden we ivm met tripjes schuiven met de tijden.Voor ons was het een paradijsje om te relaxen en te genieten van de warmte en de geboden mogelijkheden.

Once more we have to say what a thoroughly enjoyable time we had whilst staying at your fabulous complex.  You never cease to amaze us with the careful thought and consideration that is put into making the holiday so enjoyable, not just for the disabled members of the parties, but for all concerned in the holiday, be it other family members or carers or friends.  All my husbands needs were met once more.  We could not ask for anything else. 

The family is so welcoming and generous.  One of our favourite days was one spent with the 'TOUR GUIDE' Andreas....what an absolute star that man is.  He leaves no corner of the island untouched,. He can tell you anything you need to know about the flora and fauna.  Dont book a tour unless its with Andreas.  He took me and my hubby Pete to places off the beaten track that we could never have found. Nothing is too much trouble.  We love him to bits.

Eva and Nitsa, busy as ever ensuring that all the guests are happy.  The fabulous cakes still freshly made for the guests to enjoy on any afternoon.

The swimming pool, as enticing as ever, so clean and crystal clear, great care taken to ensure all around the complex is scrupulously clean and very well maintained.  Even though there was building work going on, it didnt disrupt our enjoyment what so ever. We cant wait to see the finished results of the new apartments, just from the 'shell' at present they look like they are going to be superb....well done Chris for all your thoughts, determination  and hard work that has gone into making C & A Tourist Apartments  the best ever place to stay, with or without a disability 

Chris (the boss)please say hi to Eva, Andreas, Nitsa, Dimitri, Chris, Andrew (especially from Rach !!)Charoulla, Mandana, Kumar (thanks for helping Rach with the mobile) and the most beautiful of all, Sara. Last but not least, all the geusts that we were so fortunate to meet whilst we were there.  Due to my husbands MS and its severity, there is no other place on earth that I would feel safe and happy to holiday, other than with you guys. Thanks ,

Till we meet again, forever in our thoughts, love Dawn, Pete and Rachel Ulleskelf, North Yorkshire, UK

Our first stay with C & A and we were confident it would be a vast improvement on standard holiday accommodation but it was even better than we hoped, the ramps and bedroom and bathroom access that are normally such a chore presented no problems at all. In fact we did not manually have to lift Stephen at any time over the whole holiday, as well as taking the strain off Linda and myself it meant life was much more comfortable for Stephen.
The availability of both the hoist and the electric wheel chair were a real help....we were not aware of the extent/range of your equipment for hire, this will help make future holidays even easier to plan and all the all the more enjoyable.
The airport transfer's went without a hitch and we enjoyed the journeys with Andreas' running commentary.
Of course all the "above" is wonderful but it becomes even better when you add the hospitality and friendship shown not just by you but your whole family.....you are special people and we will definitely be back to see you in 2008,
thank you, Wayne Linda & Stephen ( Northumberland ).

Dear Chris,
Thank you, thank you, thank you for providing first-class ‘disability friendly’ accommodation. The surroundings and apartment were wonderfully relaxing with a real family atmosphere; guests will want to return again and again to C + A Apartments, aka their new home in Cyprus!
From the minute we set foot on Cyprus, all our needs were catered for. The airport transfer to and from C + A Apartments was faultless and teamed with traditional Cypriot hospitality. The cost of hiring a mobility scooter was value for money and all equipment was reliable; making my holiday a truly wonderful experience!

Hei Chris!

Työskentelemme kehitysvammaisten palvelukodissa. Matkustelemme mielellämme kotimaassa ja ulkomailla asukkaidemme kanssa. Asukkaamme
tarvitsevat paljon erilaisia apuvälineitä ja se aiheuttaa usein ongelmia matkustamiseen. Kaikkea ei voi ottaa mukaan ja mistäpä saisimme paikan päällä vastaavia apuvälineitä tilalle?!
Tällä kertaa valitsimme matkakohteeksemme C&A Apartmentsin kauniilla Kyproksel-la ja olemme sitä mieltä että valinta oli loistava! Asukkaat ja me työntekijät nautimme todella paljon lomasta!
Kodikkaassa hotellissanne on otettu todella hyvin huomioon esteettömyys liikkumisessa ja ihmisten erilaiset tarpeet. Huoneistossamme oli paljon erilaisia apuvälineitä ja lisäksi oli mahdollista vuokrata esim. potilasnosturi ja sähköpyörätuoli. Mahtavaa! Myös liikkuminen Polisin kylässä oli melko vaivatonta ja retkille pääsimme kätevästi invataksilla.
Ruoka hotellissanne oli aivan mahtavan hyvää ja jäimme kaipaamaan Evan ja Nitsan valmistamia aterioita.Haluamme kovasti kiittää teitä kaikkia vieraanvaraisuudestanne ja toivomme että    voimme tavata taas pian uudelleen!
Terveisin Teija ja Virpi

Hi Chris, 
Just want to say thank you again to you and your family. This was Andrews first holiday abroad ever! And to be honest, as a support worker, it was my first holiday abroad with a wheelchair user who also has learning disabilities . All I can say is Thank God for C&A apartments and everyone who works there as they took what could have been a very stressful week and turned it into a great holiday. From Andreas meeting us at the airport - what a lovely man! The C&A taxi is fully accessible with plenty of room for all. And Andreas is so friendly and knowledgeable about the local area - what a tour guide!
The apartments are great with all the adaptations to make life easier for those who are less mobile and for those of us who support them!0
Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, and Andrew was able to go swimming  due to accessable pool.
Thanks again and hopefully will see you all again soon

Before coming to C&A apartments we have had a recommendation from a distant contact.  We had also looked at the website.  It sounded too good to be true.  With Hugh permanently in a wheelchair we had had many adverse experiences.  But the combination of Chris's own experiences as a wheelchair user and Eva's welcome and genuine concern made the holiday unforgettable.  Hugh was constantly in and out of the pool using the poolside hoist and was able to enjoy bathing in the sea when he went on the boat trip and was lowered into the sea in the special chair suspended from the ship's davits and was then able to swim around using a ring.
With everything so tailor-made and all manner of equipment available to be hired if needed, Vivien was able to relax and enjoy the holiday herself.  We could go on about the highlights, but it's enough to say: "we will be back."

Dear Chris, 

Andrew and I are always slightly apprehensive going on holiday somwhere new.  No matter what reassurances are given, until you see the accommodation with your own eyes you cannot judge what you are going to.  We need not have worried!  On arrival at Paphos we were met by Andreas with my name on a board and transferred in his wheelchair accessible taxi with air conditioning to the appartments.  We were delighted with our appartment.  The beds were exactly the right height for me and I was able to get around easily with my Zimmer frame or the chair as required.  We took my bed lever from home but would not bother when we go again as they can be hired there.  The bathroom was spacious, had grab rails as well as a raised toilet seat and a shower chair.  It is one of the few bathrooms where I managed independently.It was hot and we needed the air conditioning at night to sleep and it also restored me to near normality after our outings.  We enjoyed our breakfasts by the pool.  Eva was so hospitable, always ofering us more.  We liked Polis, it was easy to get around, not too busy and unspoilt.  We went for walks to the Beach and to Latsi, both easily accessible.  There are several good restaurants and the food was delicious.  Chris and his family made us most welcome. We look forward to returning.

What can I say, returning to the C & A Apartments was like returning home to family.  Second time around it was just as good. Apartment was as usual clean and very comfortable.  Weather great with plenty of swimming to cool us off.  The family atmosphere with meals around the pool in the evening mixing with the other quests was marvelleous.  Andreas' taxi service was as reliable as ever and Eva and Nitsa's cooking wonderful.  Can't wait to return again.

We have just had another wonderful holiday at C & A apartments. You make us so welcome! We really do appreciate staying where it really is wheelchair accessible, where we have no problems and are able to really enjoy our stay.  I really appreciate not having to prepare breakfast and it is great to be able to enjoy breakfast round the pool thanks to Eva!  The barbecue round the pool was good as well, a truly enjoyable evening. 

As you know I really enjoy going into the sea and thanks to you and Mike disabled people are able to do just that.

Hi Chris

We had a great flight home and all is well. Margaret and I have had a really great time with you and the family.

We have travelled extensively in the 30 years since my accident and we can both honestly say that the layout and equipment in the apartment that we stayed in was superb and most importantly 'hassle free'.

For the first time in my life, I have used an electric wheelchair. I must say that it certainly opened my eyes and also most of the people in Polis who were busy jumping out of my way!, but seriously since Margaret was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthrtytus we wondered how we would cope, the answer was very well.

The pool hoist was brilliant, the pool itself was excellent and well maintained.

The whole family made us most welcome, from our collection at the airport by Andreas to our welcome at the apartments by Eva and the family. The restaurants in the town are excellent and most easily accessible.

Thank you all for a wonderful holiday, we will be back I am sure.

Please send our love and best wishes to 'The boss', we hope he makes a speedy recovery. Let us know how he is when you can.

Cheers

Jayne and I have travelled to many destinations abroad from Spain to Las Vegas but this was the most hassle free trip we have ever had.
We found the apartment basic but spacious with a lovely patio overlooking the pool. The bathroom was ideal and the first time we have not had to hire a shower chair. The design of the attached chair meant Jayne could actually use this one unlike the many others that have been too too difficult to manage being narrow and armless. The hoist into the pool meant easy access and onto the brilliant lilos that are supplied by Chris, in fact we loved them so much we each bought one to take home for future holidays. For non swimmers like us this provided a very enjoyable cooling siesta to escape the heatwave and relax after our lunch and beers.
Polis has enogh good bars and restaurants to provide a varied choice for dining out and people watching .It was great to be able to take a 5 minute flat stroll down to the centre with none of the usual obstacles and hazards that usually accompany people in wheelchairs.
We enjoyed the boat trip and although we never entered the water it was nice to see many others taking advantage of the hoist. The transfers by Andreas was another great aspect of the facilities provided to make the whole experience what it was supposed to be - a holiday.
Chris and the whole family were lovely company, nothing was too much trouble and they and the other guests provided a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
I'm sure we will be back.
very best regards to all the family
