Stratos ArtDeco House

An incredible experience staying here. Away from chaos and the generic standard of a resort full of tourists.
A beautiful homely feel with Elena being so kind and generous. Her mum also spoiled me with her cooking.
A genuine getaway in a local town with a couple tavernas and surprisingly busy at night despite the quiet during the day.
The accommodation has everything you need.
I felt so fortunate to have found this place — highly recommend.

Where to begin with? By the warm welcoming we were offered — my two sons and me — upon arrival in our late evening where we intentionally got lost admiring cubbled alleys in the dimmed lights of Kalavasos a medium high ill just a half hour drive from Larnaka. Once in, an immediate step to the past and its memories: pieces of furniture wisely left and laid to recall when Stratos ArtDeco House used to be a lodge for people from cypriot passers-by on their way home and now turned into an elegant and fashionable piece of accommodation run with the same, motivated spirit by Giorgio his wife Elena and her mother. We stayed at the two-bedroomed Grand Suite a comfortable again stylish apartment on the ground full of charme and character where pieces of authentic antiques and laces enhance the experience of directly living the local culture. Anything is so peculiar and stands there as is where is, side by side, in a perfect match. I couldn't imagine such an harmoniously mix differently. But the real journey — I'd say a far away voyage — through the taste is represented by the morning breakfast we got used to having in the terrace, a place bordered with flows of bouganvillea flowers and colours overlooking the inner yard where the different hints mirrored by the tiled floor invites you to better smell and vibe the gourmet dishes enriched in natural flavours: from local avocado to cherries, nuts, almond and mango sparked with herbs, local cheese and lemon juice.

Have just come back from 2 nights at Stratos and wow we were so pleased with our stay. Our hosts were a lovely couple friendly and helpful offering advice on places to go and tavernas for dinner. The property is so unique and quirky, immaculately clean and well cared for. The property is entered through a wooden door from a narrow street which leads into a beautiful courtyard with tables and chairs and a jacuzzi. On arrival we were immediately offered a very welcome cool drink of home made lemonade, it was delicious. We were in a junior suite which was on the ground floor, this comprised of a kitchen with full facilities, a large bedroom with 2 chairs and a bathroom at the rear. The room was very tastefully decorated with lots of memorabilia collected over the years. The bed was comfortable and we were so happy we chose to stay here. On the upper floor there was a gorgeous terrace where we sat to eat breakfast, we loved it.
The village of Kalavasos is beautiful, very narrow streets and parking in designated car parks. The village square is lively and busy in the evenings with 2 tavernas within 5 minutes walk of the house, we sampled both and happy to recommend either. We also drove to Zygi in the daytime and sat in the cafe by the harbour which was an idyllic spot.
We will definitely return as we had such a wonderful short break and know that anyone choosing Stratos Art Deco House will not be disappointed.

This has been my favourite place in Cyprus. The property and rooms are beautiful. We genuinely felt like we'd been welcomed into someone's home. The hosts are just fabulous.
The rooms and courtyard are well presented and give you a real Mediterranean homely feel.
We added breakfast to our stay and wow! Three different courses over 2 days — it was so tasty!
The village is also beautiful with tasty food and friendly taverns.
Highly recommend this place for a great getaway.

We spend one week, with our 3 teen kids, at beautiful Stratos art deco house. Our hosts Georgio and Elena are the most friendly people with many great tips about the island.
They made us delicious and big breakfast every morning, with traditional food from Cyprus.
The house is very clean, they made our rooms every day. It is traditional house with lots of interesting details. You Will feel like home.
Its better than 5 stars hotel!
We are very happy that we stayed at Stratos house in Kalavasos.

There's no enough stars to explain such positive and bright atmosphere. Elena was more than a perfect host.

A lovely little hotel with four rooms, each of them has a unique character and style. Caring owner doing her best to make your stay as pleasant as possible. Peaceful village of Kalavasos with two traditional tavernas and a lot of cat friends, not that far from White Stones Beach, Aphrodite's Rock or e. G. Nicosia. Exceptional and definitely worth it. Thank you for making our stay so amazing :)

We have just been here. Not only the room was super clean and lovingly decorated as the rest of the 300 year old house but it is managed by the sweetest of hosts who is very helpful and friendly. Will definitely come here when we return to Cyprus.

First time in my life I am experiencing such an extraordinary stay in this country house for resting a couple of days! Everything here is exceptional! From the most amazing owners to the unbelievably cozy atmosphere… everything in detail! I am amazed of all the small things the owners thought of so as to make our stay here more convenient and enjoyable! Giorgos & Elena welcomed us with fresh homemade lemonade and freshly homemade chocolate pie! The room exceeded my expectations with the cleanliness, the comfortable and the amenities (shower gel, shampoo, balsam, cotton pads, hand soap, even soap to wash your clothes, an espresso machine, Nescafé, tea, water, wine, chocolates, nuts, two delicious sandwiches for breakfast, towels which to my surprise they change every day! ) and many more which now I am missing to refer! The couple/owners made the most of everything to keep us satisfied! They offered us towels for the beach, sunscreen because I forgot mine, fresh milk because I told them that I drink my coffee with fresh milk… in general they did more than I could ever imagine to make our short stay unforgettable! On top of that, the cozy yard has a jacuzzi at which we had a splendid time! The 2nd afternoon, they prepared for us homemade cheese-pies and a delicious dessert! Whatever I say is very poor to that small paradise hidden in a small village like kalavasos! Surely we will be coming back again and again!

Great place for an incredible vacation!
