Traditional Cypriot feeling. Friendly, relaxing oasis. We love this place and have been using Riccos for over 20 years!, There are plenty of modern, upmarket beach bars along that stretch - please leave this one alone for us to enjoy for many more years!
Please keep this authentic cafe on the beach . It is the highlight of our many holidays in Cyprus for myself and the children . There are enough modern cafes which we can visit anywhere in the world but this one is special
For 50+ years Ricco's has been a focal point all year round for Cypriots, ex pats and holiday makers. A lovely venue for all and what would replace it? A sterile co.d building with no atmosphere.
We have been visiting Cyprus for the last 34 years and have always known Riccos to be there How can you do away with something that actually lends its name to the beach it sits on and is listed on Google maps
This venue is lived and used by locals and tourists alike. Is a unique place, locals swimming then having coffee etc, playing back gammon. Animals. This place has it all and would be missed by us all. DO THE RIGHT THING ALLOW IT TO REMAIN OPEN for us all to enjoy.
This is a disgrace this place should remain open for the sake of wildlife and the tree
Beautiful and authentic place!

Rococos is so uniquely old Cypriot and offers solace for both locals and tourists/visitors alike. It is genuinely unique and needs to be saved, Paphos is to close to selling its heart and soul to foreign investors it’s time to stop!!!!
