The Municipality of Peyia (confusingly also spelt Pegeia - the 'g' is silent) covers a large area stretching from the Peyia Forest on the hills high above the village in the north, to the sea in the south, and from the Bay of Maa in the east to the Akamas peninsula in the west.
The village of Peyia started life as a typical, small Cypriot village of stone-built houses with narrow streets built around a church nestling on a hillside overlooking the sea. It is about 4 kms inland from a beautiful, naturally sandy beach at Coral Bay and about 15 kms north-west of Paphos.
The once sleepy village of Peyia might not command much attention from guidebook writers, but it's a favourite topic of conversation with estate agents and expatriates. And it's easy to see why. The whitewashed village clings to the rugged hills that act a backdrop to Cyprus' most photogenic stretch of coastline. Below glitter the crystal waters of the Mediterranean, while to the north the silhouetted peak of Ayios Yeoyios marks the beginning of the untouched Akamas Peninsula.
However, it's the village's proximity to the resort of Coral Bay (just five km south west) that first put Peyia on the developer's map. Walking along the pine-scented streets it's easy to come to the conclusion that Peyia is still sleeping off all the hard work of the recent construction boom. While locals like to claim that 'in Peyia nothing happens in a hurry', the truth is that nothing much happens at all. However, it's this soporific quality that imbues Peyia with most of its charm. The Peyia long term rental villas and apartments available for Lettings Cyprus, are new and in the most stunning locations.
Peyia proves a welcome antidote to the bustle of nearby Paphoso and is a great place to while away a relaxing lunchtime with a plateful of meze and a cold bottle of Keo beer. If you prefer your afternoons to be a little more active you'll find a number of local companies offering every white-knuckled pursuit from go-karting to paragliding, otherwise it's a short hop to the beach.
