Holidays in Akourdhalia

A very small and attractive village in two parts, ‘Pano’ and ‘Kato’, on the edge of the spectacular Pitharolakkos gorge and close to the 16th century chapel of Ayia Paraskevi. Each spring the village is submerged in almond blossom. There is a folk museum in Kato Akourdalia.

The Laona Project is very active here and a number of stone houses have been carefully restored. The old school house has been renovated and its grounds, now a herb garden, are open to the public. There are no shops in the village, but a part-time coffee shop in Kato Akourdalia serves snacks. The village of Miliou is a short drive away, the beaches of Latchi 20 minutes and Paphos 25 minutes.
