Dear all forum users,
we are a young couple from who wishes a nice (yet not expensive) travel holiday to your country.
I have checked the Internet and it seems that there are a lot of nice place, but two of them seemed the most interesting: Ayia Napa and Protaras.
Now: what we wish is to rent a small place (apartment would be nice) in one of these places which would offer:
- location: the closest to the beach, the better
- beach has to be sandy and with shallow waters
- rooms: clean
- quiet location
It doesn't matter if they offer food (we like to try different places to eat), it doesn't need to be a 5-star hotel (no need for luxury) - just quiet, beach, clean.
I have seen some offers but I don't know which one to choose, so please help me.
One other thing: it is cheaper to book online or to book from a local travel agency which may have better prices?
Ah, we want to go to Cyprus mid-September.
Waiting for your replies,
best wishes to all!
Andrei |

Thank you for the information provided. It's a lot of data and it make it even more hard to decide. 
What is the recommendation for the specified zones (Ayia Napa / Protaras) in order to find what we need (cleanness, quietness, close to sandy beach)?
Regards,
Andrei |

From what I understand, you if are looking for a quiet place, then Ayia Napa should be out as it's not quiet at all. If your other choice is Protaras then the Silver Sands will be a good choice IMO.

| Try Mimosa Beach Hotel who also have some apartments. They are in Protaras at the Capo Greko end, with a lovely sandy beach. |
