Chris
I would like to say a big thanks to yourself, Andreas & Hurula (excuse spelling) for making our holiday in Cyprus so straightforward and enjoyable. I am a C3 quadriplegic on full-time ventilation and my requirements are not straightforward, however your excellent transportation service, electric hoist hire and overall provision of service was excellent, I was also very impressed by the quality of the actual equipment and transport. Although disabled as mentioned I am very active and your company and family managed to provide a great transportation service (often at very short notice) to get me everywhere from the water park in Paphos to Coral Bay and beyond. I would highly recommend your company and look forward to meeting you all again on our next visit Cyprus.
We stayed in a villa in Emba (between Coral Bay and Paphos) and you also managed to provide us with an excellent carer who had 18 years experience in the UK working with a quadriplegic (many thanks Michelle).
Kind regards

Hi Chris, Eva, Andreas, Nitsa, Charoulla, computer Chris, Andrew, Kumar Cosi and of course Dimitri !
Back home a week and missing you all, Alan is back at work and I am back into it too. Hope you are all well , we can’t tell you enough what a great holiday we had and how lovely it was to meet you all.
This was our first stay at your lovely home and we both felt like we were leaving our family when we came back to England. The warm welcome and the perfect apartment made this stay with you a joy. We fell in love with Polis and Latchi, the town square in polis with all the great restaurants and the harbour at Latchi were perfect for us. The warm Cypriot sunshine and the friendship offered without reservation from all of you made this a perfect time for us. We have just about recovered from the para gliding but miss the boat trip and swimming in the sea every day but it was an amazing experience for both of us.
The apartment was perfect for me(Sue) as a wheelchair user but we both have to say that anyone would be hard pressed to find a more comfortable and welcoming place to stay (whether they have a disabled family member , or none at all). This place is magical. We met some wonderful people of all ages and abilities and were made to feel safe and welcome and part of you lovely family. Any one thinking about a holiday in Cyprus choose C & A Apartments, because believe us when we say “Its not just for wheelchairs” !
The Place is a credit to you all and we cannot wait to come back. Hope the BBQ went well we look forward to one next time we visit. Eva the sandwiches were perfect and you were right about us needing three. We miss you all and will be back in 2010 but until then , expect the odd email and take care
Love from
Sue and Alan Fairburn

Hi Chris,

It doesn't seem possible that we have been home for two weeks. Once we went back to work it seemed as though we hadn't been away. Thank goodness we have some lovely photos to remind us. We have looked at the photos you have posted and it was lovely to see there the people we met while staying with you.

We all had a great time, especially Louise who was able to be independent and not worry about people staring at her, especially when she was going into the pool. She really enjoyed the pool as she never goeas swimming here.It was so easy to get her in and out there because of the hoist .The facilities at the apartment made it so much easier for us all that we were all able to relax and have such an enjoyable stay. We would especially recommend that guests hire a scooter ( if suitable for them). It saved Peter and I having to push Louise around in her wheelchair in the heat and it gave her independence. Thank you so much for letting us use the larger scooter as while as the one ordered. You certainly knew best about that! Thank you to all the family for being so helpful and making us so welcome. We will certainly be back - finances permitting!

I promised Nitsa a recipe for Mars Mousse which is attached. I hope she enjoys making it, and eating it!

Best Wishes to everyone

Brenda, Peter & Louise

Hej til alle på C&A

Fra Bytoften, skal der lyde den største tak til familien i Polis, for en rigtig fantastisk ferie, for Hanne og Gert, samt Bodil og Tina. Det har været en rigtig oplevelsesrig uge, både på indtryk og dejlige minder. Familien på C&A er super fantastiske til at få os til at føle os som en del af deres familie. Vi har haft en utrolig dejlige uge i et hyggeligt selskab, og vi har fået set alt det vi gerne ville se, og som vi kunne nå og se denne gang. Håber at vi en dag får mulighed for at komme en tur til Polis igen,det er helt sikkert et sted man sagtens kan komme tilbage til. Vi kan kun sende de bedste anbefalinger til alle der overvejer en tur til Cypern. At vælge en ferie hos C&A, er ferie.

De bedste hilsner fra

Hanne, Gert, Bodil & Tina

Hej Chris!

Mange tak for den dejlige uge vi havde hos jer i april 2009.

Kirsten og Kirsten var ledsager for Lone som sidder i kørestol. Lone syntes selv at hun havde en fantastisk tur, alle steder var man imødekommende og forstående over for hendes handicap og alle var utrolig hjælpsomme.

Hotellet er rigtig godt indrettet for en person i kørestol og hjælpemidlerne er ok.

Der var en hjertelig atmosfære på hotellet og vi følte os som en stor familie. Det var for Lone og os selv en stor fornøjelse at møde nogen fra andre lande som også er handicappet.

I byen er der mange muligheder for at komme ind i butikker og på restauranter selv om man sidder kørestol.

Her i Danmark har vi rost jeres hotel meget også til Christravel, så vi håber i får besøg af rigtig mange danskere.

Vi havde en rigtig god tur hjem.

Hilsen pigerne fra Danmark

So we also thank you very much

-for the wonderful time in Polis

-for the comfortable housing

-for the delicious breakfasts and diners made by Eva, Nitsa, Charoulla and some others

-for the interesting excursions guided by Andreas and Charoulla

-for the swimming-dates with Chris

-for the sunrise session with Eva and Nelly

-for the possibilities and attention you give to disabled and non-disabled people

-for the very friendly family atmosphere you create all the time.

‘If you are happy, I’m happy to’ dixit Nitsa ………….

Believe me, that’s your secret! And it works!

Although never expecting to visit a place twice, yours will be an exception for us.

Might you meet us again next year!

Hi Chris

We would like to thank your Father,Andreas for meeting us at the airport and also taking us back for our return flight, his help made the transfer to the apartments so much easier and it was great to have a warm welcome after a long flight.
I was glad I hired the electric wheelchair, as it made Tonys' holiday easier . at one point I got so confident on it that he had to run to catch up with me - good exercise for him.
I was also glad that I was able to go Parasailing that was a wonderful experience that I never thought I would be able to do , but thanks to you and the helpful people on the boat Iiwas able to enjoy being free for a while and not sitting in a wheelchair watching other people do things I wanted to do.
It was also great using the hoist to go into the swimming pool, my legs do not work at all so to have that experience was good.
I'd urge anyonewho is in a wheelchair, if possible to enjoy all that I did.
best wishes
Pam .

Hello Chris

Just a quick line to say thank you so much for a very smooth return taxi transfer from Paphos airport to the Avanti return trip. It was the first time I'd travelled with my own scooer so was obviously a little apprehesive to say the least, but seeing your father and his grandson ( is that your son, he's a smashing lad who made us laugh lots on the journey to the hotel) waiting for us was so reassuring and the trip each way was faultless.

Hope to use you again in the future and will definitely recommend you if anybody asks us.

All the best

Hi Chris

Just wanted to say how impressed we were with the efficiency of your company. Andreas picked us up from the airport and took us to Kefalos Beach Village giving us lots of useful information on the way. We hadn't been sure whether to hire a scooter or not but on arrival decided to do so and Andreas delivered it to us the next morning. It made such a difference to our holiday. We then arranged an excursion with Andreas and he took so much care to make sure he met our needs and we had a wonderful day. It was lovely to meet your family and to be shown around the apartments at Polis.

We hope to be able to visit beautiful Cyprus again and will certainly use your services again.

Best wishes

We arrived back in Bristol safe and sound.

The only problem with our holiday in Cyprus was that it was not long enough and we had to return to a frosty England. We could not have asked for anything more; the apartment had all we needed Pam was able to manage all the facilities and was particularly impressed with the bathroom and shower. Sitting in the sun, enjoying the company of you, your family and the other holidaymaker was just great.

Andreas was very helpful, having a minibus with a lift that works was a great relief (so often her in the UK we have to put up with ramps that do not wok on our unlevel surfaces and are to steep). The excursion we did he was very attentive and flexible in meeting our specific needs, we saw so much more of the island and its life that you could not get on a set tour.

We shall certainly look to visit you again, may be not next year as we already have other plans and have already passed on your flyers to our local MS Centre which Pam attends and have mentioned you to other who would welcome your type of holiday.

Good luck with completion of the building work, best wishes to you and all your family and collegues.

bye for now

Hi chris and family,

we arrived safely back in England,but had to scrape the ice of our van,before we could drive it.Dan would like to say a few words.

Iwould like to thank Chris and his family for making my first holiday abroad one to remember,you could not have been any more helpful,we were always greeted with a warm smile from Chris,and the guided tours with Andreas were especially informative,his local knowledge of the fruits of the forest was very interesting,i will certainly be recommending your apartments to my friends,the only negative point was when we tried to go paragliding,i think for the more severely disabled a visit to the centre to discuss the procedures of paragliding first would be more appropriate,we were a bit rushed and the people on the boat were a little afraid of my frailty,other than that it was 10 out of ten for your staff and facilities,hope everything goes well with your extension.

yours thankfully Dan and steve

Hi Chris,
Just to say thank you for the hire of the wheelchair for my husband. It made a huge difference to us getting around and saved having to bring his own. We stayed at the Villa Kathryn in Latchi the first week of October and your poor father deserves a medal for the effort he put in trying to find us ! Get him a map of the villas !!! It was so lovely to meet you when I returned the chair hope you are in good health.
We will definitely use your services again when we return to Cyprus.
With best wishes from a very wet and windy Scotland !

Hi Chris
One little paragraph in a Sunday paper lead to a wonderful stress free holiday in Cyprus.
The hire of a scooter, the hire of transport from and to the airport were expertly organised for us. The friendly welcome when we arrived (a day late!) was great and then to see the accommodation which met our needs exactly confirmed that we would have a great holiday. Jas was really confortable in both the folding scooter,which we took in the car, and the bigger one, on which he went to Latchi.
We had a lovely trip to Pathos with Adreas, and learnt a lot about olives on the way, as well as other things.
Bryn and David especially liked the boat trip and the stop for swimming. Laura enjoyed relaxing on the beach in the evenings and we all enjoyed the wonderful food at places recommended by Chris as well as the barbeque at the pool side and Nitsa's wonderful cakes. Laura would want me to mention Andreas's capers as well!.
Thanks again to all the family and we look forward to seeing the completed extension.

Hi Chris would love to be part of your website.

we had an excellent holiday in paphos.My husband Stephen, is paralysed at t6. The holiday was made even more special by the services of Andreas, who took all of my family on a very informative trip around the sites of paphos, this experience really enhanced our whole holiday experience and we would like to thanks Andreas through you once again.

We also hired a scooter, which although some of the pavement sides are a little steep was a real god send and enabled ste to have a bit more independance around and abouts the hotel.

Thanks

Dear Chris and family
Wow, what more can we say. The holiday surpassed itself once more. We were met by a happy smiling Andreas at Paphos airport who quickly loaded us and our luggage and headed off for Polis. We were shown the tobacco plantations, his favourite Olive trees and all the fauna and flaura of your country......Even though this is yet another visit with you guys, things still are the same and we are so happy to be greeted by Andreas.
On arrival at C & A, we were greeted once more by Eva and were already feeling relaxed and ready to start our holiday. Ice cold lemonade awaited us (home made of course) as well as the welcome pack we requested, and a pot of tea, even in your climate is still refreshing to us Brits.
The apartment after its renovations was outstanding, and I presume as others before us will have said, your photographs certainly do not do it justice. The brand new fitted kitchen with all appliances made for an easy life for us busy mums/wives. A dishwasher, what bliss. You have really thought of everything to make life easier for the able bodied as well as those that are less able.
The pool area, once again, kept scrupiously clean and tidy and the pool checked every day.
The on site breakfasts were a godsend to us. Like being in a hotel. Eva took care of everything, be it a cooked English breakfast with home made pancakes, home made jams and marmalade, greek yoghurt and seasonal fruit, to cereal and toast. What ever we wanted, all we needed to do was ask the night before and the banquet awaited us at our chosen time. Bargain price too !! We ate at leisure around the poolside/poolbar.
Once again, the holiday was made special for us as Pete was able to make use of the Spring Float purchased on site. This enabled him to lay relaxed in the pool, safely, for hours at a time. Kumar was very good at ensuring that there was enough shade around the pool for those who needed it, even though primarily he is not really there for the guests requests, and is only solely Chris's carer.
The food at the BBQ night was again out of this world as too was the company of the family and other guests. No matter what health problems one may have, at C & A apartments, everyone comes together and unites as one. Thats why we will always return to C & A . Cant wait to see you guys soon.
Love and best wishes to everyone, from Dawn, Pete, Rach, Nic and Steve

Once more we have to say what a thoroughly enjoyable time we had whilst staying at your fabulous complex. You never cease to amaze us with the careful thought and consideration that is put into making the holiday so enjoyable, not just for the disabled members of the parties, but for all concerned in the holiday, be it other family members or carers or friends. All my husbands needs were met once more. We could not ask for anything else.

The family is so welcoming and generous. One of our favourite days was one spent with the 'TOUR GUIDE' Andreas....what an absolute star that man is. He leaves no corner of the island untouched,. He can tell you anything you need to know about the flora and fauna. Dont book a tour unless its with Andreas. He took me and my hubby Pete to places off the beaten track that we could never have found. Nothing is too much trouble. We love him to bits.

Eva and Nitsa, busy as ever ensuring that all the guests are happy. The fabulous cakes still freshly made for the guests to enjoy on any afternoon.

The swimming pool, as enticing as ever, so clean and crystal clear, great care taken to ensure all around the complex is scrupulously clean and very well maintained. Even though there was building work going on, it didnt disrupt our enjoyment what so ever. We cant wait to see the finished results of the new apartments, just from the 'shell' at present they look like they are going to be superb....well done Chris for all your thoughts, determination and hard work that has gone into making C & A Tourist Apartments the best ever place to stay, with or without a disability

Chris (the boss)please say hi to Eva, Andreas, Nitsa, Dimitri, Chris, Andrew (especially from Rach !!)Charoulla, Mandana, Kumar (thanks for helping Rach with the mobile) and the most beautiful of all, Sara. Last but not least, all the geusts that we were so fortunate to meet whilst we were there. Due to my husbands MS and its severity, there is no other place on earth that I would feel safe and happy to holiday, other than with you guys. Thanks ,

I am now back home in cold and snowy England and am full of envy for Cyprus living.

Can I offer my sincere thanks to you and your father for the wonderful service you are providing - I previously had a wheelchair on hire but this year opted for the scooter and it has proved to be the correct decision. My friends that I meet up with enjoyed my freedom just as much as I - and we were all able to appreciate the service provided.

In fact, due to a couple of children playing with the switches while on charge, I had to contact Andreas - who immediately identified the problem as being in inside mode - when I talked I was not near the scooter and he, very kindly called into The Paphiessa (whilst in the area) to check all was well - which it was.

I also had to give members of the public the telephone details whilst on my travels - as it caused so much interest with other tourists.

If you wish to use my name - or indeed this email then please feel free to do so - as I indicated to Andreas - I intend coming back to the wonderful Cyprus in Easter next year and will be contacting you in due course.

Once again thanks and best regards

Our first stay with C & A and we were confident it would be a vast improvement on standard holiday accommodation but it was even better than we hoped, the ramps and bedroom and bathroom access that are normally such a chore presented no problems at all. In fact we did not manually have to lift Stephen at any time over the whole holiday, as well as taking the strain off Linda and myself it meant life was much more comfortable for Stephen.
The availability of both the hoist and the electric wheel chair were a real help....we were not aware of the extent/range of your equipment for hire, this will help make future holidays even easier to plan and all the all the more enjoyable.
The airport transfer's went without a hitch and we enjoyed the journeys with Andreas' running commentary.
Of course all the "above" is wonderful but it becomes even better when you add the hospitality and friendship shown not just by you but your whole family.....you are special people and we will definitely be back to see you in 2008,
thank you, Wayne Linda & Stephen ( Northumberland ).

Hi Chris,

Just a note to thank Andreas, he was a most welcome site at Paphos airport in the early hours of the morning following a delayed flight. Knowing he would be there to make the transfer from the airport to Polis completely hassle free helped us both relax despite the frustration of modern day international flying. We were both disappointed when he arrived promptly to take us back to the Airport a week later - neither of us wanted to leave!!

It was also great to have the electric wheelchair available from the moment we arrived until we boarded the return taxi - having all the facilities made the holiday a real opportunity for Alison to relax and for me to be as independent as possible throughout our stay.

Thanks again

Dear Chris,
Thank you, thank you, thank you for providing first-class ‘disability friendly’ accommodation. The surroundings and apartment were wonderfully relaxing with a real family atmosphere; guests will want to return again and again to C + A Apartments, aka their new home in Cyprus!
From the minute we set foot on Cyprus, all our needs were catered for. The airport transfer to and from C + A Apartments was faultless and teamed with traditional Cypriot hospitality. The cost of hiring a mobility scooter was value for money and all equipment was reliable; making my holiday a truly wonderful experience!

Hi Chris,
Just want to say thank you again to you and your family. This was Andrews first holiday abroad ever! And to be honest, as a support worker, it was my first holiday abroad with a wheelchair user who also has learning disabilities . All I can say is Thank God for C&A apartments and everyone who works there as they took what could have been a very stressful week and turned it into a great holiday. From Andreas meeting us at the airport - what a lovely man! The C&A taxi is fully accessible with plenty of room for all. And Andreas is so friendly and knowledgeable about the local area - what a tour guide!
The apartments are great with all the adaptations to make life easier for those who are less mobile and for those of us who support them!0
Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, and Andrew was able to go swimming due to accessable pool.
Thanks again and hopefully will see you all again soon

Before coming to C&A apartments we have had a recommendation from a distant contact. We had also looked at the website. It sounded too good to be true. With Hugh permanently in a wheelchair we had had many adverse experiences. But the combination of Chris's own experiences as a wheelchair user and Eva's welcome and genuine concern made the holiday unforgettable. Hugh was constantly in and out of the pool using the poolside hoist and was able to enjoy bathing in the sea when he went on the boat trip and was lowered into the sea in the special chair suspended from the ship's davits and was then able to swim around using a ring.
With everything so tailor-made and all manner of equipment available to be hired if needed, Vivien was able to relax and enjoy the holiday herself. We could go on about the highlights, but it's enough to say: "we will be back."

It is of great help to me to be met by a wheelchair accessible vehicle after a flight and the weather hot. Andreas' taxiwas perfect-it has air conditioning and he always ensures the chair is secured before departing. Although it was a long day we had an excursion to Pafos, where we enjoyed seeing Aphrodite's birthplace, the market, the harbour and the mosaics. We did not hire equipment on this occasion

Hi Chris

Would you please thank your father for making our holiday something special.

We were worried about the transfers from and to the airport but we need not have been concerned as the service was wonderful .Andreas took over and looked after us so well.

We also enjoyed the tours he organised. The day in Paphos was delightful and everyone who did the boat trip thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Thanks again for a great holiday

Hi Chris

Just a few notes on the Taxi service.

The Taxi itself was a Peugot Diesel with a tail lift.

The driver, Andreas was excellent, nothing was too much trouble, he was patient, knowledgeable and very professional in everything that he did. He had everything weighed up to a fine art, he helped make our holiday entirely hassle free. It is the first time that we have not hired a car whilst on holiday which we did not regret at all.

Best of luck with the new apartments, I am sure the business will go from strength to strength.

Best wishes

Margaret and Dave

Chris,

Fantastic transfer service, Andreas was at Arrivals when we landed. The service takes all the stress away from taking an electric wheelchair on holiday. I would recommend this service to anyone - world class! In addition we hired a manual chair for Max. Again a quality piece of equipment and excellent value for money.

Finally, the boat trip which Chris recommended was superb - Max has difficulty walking on sand but loves swimming in the sea. The hoist allowed him a memorable experience swimming in the blue lagoon and one memory that will live with us all for a long time. This family are amazing lovely people who have done so much to enable less able people to enjoy holidays abroad.

we hired a hoist for malc as he suffers with ms (the hoist was waiting for us in our room on arrival)

We booked a few trips during our stay(better to try and book before you arrive as andraos gets very booked up) we went on the glass bottom boat trip a lovely day and malc chloe and myself went for a swim in the med LOVELY .

We went on another trip to the troodos mountains a long day but well worth it and andreas also took us to paphos to the water park we had a fun day with peter and his carers

thank you for making our stay run smothly judith malc chloe joe and grandma syl

Hi all,
Thank you so much for your help last week ( 22nd July-29th).
This is the second holiday you have provided me with a scooter to get around the resort of Coral bay. Without it I would not have been able to move from the villa.
You delivered right to my door when you said you would , I had your contact details should anything go wrong ( which it didn't ) and then you collected it again when it was time to go home.
It could not have been easier. All of that at short notice too ! I only knew I was coming to Cyprus three days before I was leaving, so to me you really are a star!
Thank you all so much - see you next time, and I have no hesitation recommending you to anyone needing any help at all whilst in Cyprus.
Regards,
May Holland

I am sorry for this email being so long after the occassion but I wanted to thank both you and your dad for the wonderful day my family and I had for my husbands 60th birthday. Andreas made everything more interesting with all his knowledge about the area, wildlife, plants etc.

Thanks again for a memorable day.

We have just returned from the most wonderful week in Cyprus staying at C & A Apartments. From the moment Andreas collected us in his adapted vehicle the whole week went like a dream. The facilities were second to none - for the first time ever on holiday I was able to get Bruce in and out of the shower with no problem. Chris's suggestion that we hire an electric wheelchair was just the best. It made the holiday for me as I would never have managed with the manual wheelchair in the heat. Eva's lovely breakfasts round the pool and her daughter's delicious cake were a real treat. The village of Polis is great - all the people were so very friendly, kind and helpful. All in all the holiday was perfect and we really look forward to returning before too long. Love to Chris, Andreas and Eva xxxx

Toen we op 3O mei naar Cyprus vertrokken, was er afgesproken, dat iemand ons in Paphos zou komen afhalen.

De opluchting was dan ook groot, toen er bij de uitgang van het luchthavengebouw een man (Andreas zou blijken) stond, die een blad droeg waarop in grote letters mijn naam stond.

Yess!! Dat was een goed begin! Bovendien, reed de man met een lift-taxi-bus, waardoor het gemakellijk was, om de rolwagen in-en uit te rijden.

Tijdens de rit, toonde Andreas ons een blad waarop de verschillende excursies vermeld stonden, waaraan we konden deelnemen.

We hebben tijdens ons verlof 2 excursies meegedaan en geloof me, we hadden er geen spijt van. Andreas vertelde honderduit over de omgeving, alle mogelijke fruitbomen, wijngaarden, steden en dorpjes, planten en dieren.

Hij is zéér geduldig en gedienstig, weet waar mooie uitzichtpunten zijn,waar het de moeite is om even te stoppen, waar er toegankelijke toiletten zijn. Geen halte was hem teveel.

Hartelijk dank Andreas ! ( efchariesto polie )

Wij huurden in Polis geen extra materiaal, maar waren toch onder de indruk van zo'n uitgebreid assortiment van hulptoestellen.

Wie denkt, dat reizen naar het buitenland, in een rolstoel niets meer voor hem of haar is, zal hier zijn mening zeker moeten herzien !

Een aanrader !!!

What can I say, from the moment Andreas met us at the airport all my worries about taking a disabled person on holiday were alaid. Elizabeth and I were able to have a normal holiday besides this all because Chris, Andreas and Eva looked after us so well. From everything from breakfast to dinner Eva looked after us like a mother. Chris helped organise any outing we wanted to go on and Andreas (God Bless Him) did all the driving, tours included with his own personal humour ( this included any toilet stops that were required. We cant wait to go back knowing that we will be so well looked after. Elizabeth (although unable to walk) managed a swim in the sea and the pool. We both went on a boat trip and a tour to winery and Pafos market with everything to see there. Hope to see our new family soon. Lots of love from Elizabeth and Denise

Dear Chris,

Firstly I have only just picked up my emails I would have loved to have popped in for a coffee but time was limited, if we are passing your way in the future we will pop in and see you. I would just like to say a very big thankyou for helping our holiday/wedding a success we could not have managed without your equipment and your dads adapted taxi, they were fantastic, I will certainly recommend you.

Thanks again

Sheila

PS The wedding was fantastic in such beautiful surroundings.

I was very impressed with the prompt and efficient experience I had in your easy to use web site especially for me as this was the 1st time I have hired a wheelchair when on holiday - I have been to Paphos before and was meeting up with a group of people who were all able bodied - the wheelchair allowed me to go out with them at night and see sights and sounds of Paphos as one of the crowd.

When your father delivered the chair and gave me a run through of how to use it properly I realised what a treat was now in store for the next 2 weeks. What a delight he was as well - in fact he suggested that I consider an electric scooter for my next visit and he could also recommend airport transfer with delivery and collection - I am coming back in September and will be using your excellent facilities again.

Best regards - Brian
