Short Description:
C & A Tourist Apartments is a family run establishment. One of the owners uses a wheelchair himself and has designed the award winning complex to be completely wheelchair accessible! During the cooler month the swimming pool is heated.
I have been asked, by Chris Neophytou to write up the narrative on the apartments etc as he suffers from Freidriechs Ataxia and has been confined to a wheelchair for the last 19 years. I really don’t know where to begin, because he and his family offer so much. You must visit the websites. Sian .
"Due to the small and intimate nature of the complex we regret that we cannot accept persons with behevioural or disruptive difficulties"
We now offer heating in the cooler months of November through to March the pool will be kept at a warmer temperature which is more suitable for the less able bodied.
Breakfast, home made dinners are served. Halfboard is offered as well.
Food and beverage
We also have our own family run restaurant on site and we offer breakfast and dinner buffet. One can experience a barbeque evening prepared by the family. Various meal/room packages are also available on request. C&A has its own secluded garden/pool and bar.
