Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the villas for being exceptional, well-maintained, and equipped with everything needed for a brilliant holiday. Many people highlight the stunning views, excellent pools, and spacious, clean interiors. The staff and hosts are often described as helpful, friendly, and professional, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience for many. However, some customers also noted issues with facilities, such as a lack of kitchen utensils, poor cleanliness, and maintenance problems like blocked sinks or non-functional air conditioning. A few other people also felt that some villas were tired or dated, and some experienced disturbances from maintenance workers or neighbors. There were also occasional concerns about villa locations being isolated or difficult to access, and in rare cases, serious issues were reported.

Villa La Asomada

The villa on the whole was lovely. Kitchen well equipped and lovely view from the balcony.
The mattresses however were very uncomfortable, on the two double beds.
A lot of activity on the waste ground next door with lorries dumping rubble constantly causing a bit of dust.

The villa and pool were lovely

The villa and pool were lovely, clean and comfortable. We had a problem in our second week with the pool. The filters stopped working. One call to solmar and the pool guy was there and fixed the problem the next day. The only thing I would say needed attention was the TV. We spent a few evenings in the Villa. The tv did not have a good choice of English programmes which was a bit disappointing.
The airport transfers were excellent no waiting around.
Overall the holiday was great and I would definitely book again with Solmar.

Beautiful accommodation but will be disturbed a lot

Villa was lovely and has everything we needed (although was tricky to find) however I will stress that the note on the villa that you MAY be disturbed is an understatement. We stayed three nights and had 9 different people in and out - yes into the villa whilst we were trying to enjoy a family pool day. Early morning right through to late evening so even if you are out during main hours of the day you will be disturbed by "maintenance ".

Lovely villa and location

Lovely villa, fantastic location and staff on hand if you need them. We love the town and the villas we’ve stayed in; clean, everything you need and cosy. I won’t recommend because I want them for myself! 🤣

A fabulous 2 week break in Cyprus with Solmar

We had a fabulous 2 week break in Argaka Cyprus staying in the beautiful Villa Heaven. The villa far exceeded all of our expectations. We couldn't fault it in any way. The booking process was so easy and communication with Solmar was immediate really helpful.

Great service from Solmar

Stayed at Villa Hermis in Argaka, Cyprus, in September 2025. Great communication throughout with Solmar. The villa itself was of a good standard, 4 double bedrooms, clean and spacious and well presented. We did have a problem whilst we were there when the electricity supply tripped and we could not switch it back on. We contacted the 24/7 service with Solmar and an electrician arrived swiftly and sorted the issue for us. We would highly recommend Solmar for the quality of their properties and their great customer service.

It was a relaxing time with very helpful polite staff. Only the ones with cars need to close the gate after they come in or depart. The other thing was the shower it was lovely but we couldn’t get the over head one to work. Everything else was lovely Thsnk you

Ignored complaints

Our complaints, whilst staying at one of the 3 villas that we rented for the month, were completely ignored until months after our return. There was no hot water, rarely any internet ants all over the kitchen on our arrival, the bath emptied in its entirety on to the bedroom floor and reading past reviews had been doing so for about 6 years. We also had issues with the car hire they provided. The villa, which used to be stunning had become quite run down.
On the positive side, they do have some lovely villas at reasonable prices.
