The Sun's Kara Godfrey visited the sunny Mediterranean island of Cyprus, exploring everything that the western area of Paphos has to offer - from fine wines to quaint historic villages.
A visit to Cyprus is nothing without a trip to a winery, of which there are dozens scattered across the island.
We pulled up at Linos, a winery dating back to 1825, in the historic and beautiful village of Omodos.
Along with delicious whites, roses and reds — once made for Royal Caribbean cruises — they are one of the few wineries to create a rare blue wine.
After losing count of the glasses of wine, I found myself at the birthplace of the Greek goddess of love, Aphrodite — a large rock off a beach near Paphos.
I then headed back to the 5H adults-only Ivi Mare resort in Paphos - a 148-room hotel which opened last year and promises laid-back luxury in chic, contemporary surroundings.
The huge pool is set in palm tree gardens and is just steps from the ocean - but even more tempting was the hot tub on the private balcony of my room.
