5, Ellados Street, Vouni, Limassol,

Oinou Strata

Oinou Strata offers the option of a luxurious and relaxing stay in Vouni, one of the biggest wine-villages of the mountainous Limassol and maybe one of the best agrotourism destinations. In our suites, luxury and comfort are combined with absolute harmony. The co-existence of the old and the modern are the main elements that the visitor will see at Oinou Strata.

Oinou Strata

Vouni, is a picturesque village with stone-paved alleys, traditional houses with wooden doors, big windows, narrow balconies and indoor yards.The rich architectural legacy attracts local people and visitors who behold in it an outdoor museum of life and society shaped through the past centuries.

It is located in Limassol District, in the area known as Krasochoria. It is built at an altitude of 800 meters above sea level. The village spreads on a south-facing slope of a mountain. The view from the village is “breathtaking with summits such as that of Moutti of mount Afamis, in the north of the settlement, and the bed of the river Hapotami in the west and that of Kryos Potamos in the east”.

The name of the village is linked to its location. According to the Great Cypriot Encyclopedia, the village was given the name “mountain” which means “low mountain” because of the location on which it is built.

A winegrowing village

The name of the village is closely linked to its location. According to the Big Cypriot Encyclopedia, the village was named “Vouni” which means mountain with low altitude, due to the location on which it was built.

Just as the Great Cypriot Encyclopedia states, Vouni “has always been a village of viticulturists”. Up until the 90s, Vouni was the third largest village full of vineyards and winemakers, with Pachna and Omodos being the first and second respectively”. In fact, 40% of the village’s area was used as vineyards. Nowadays, winemaking has significantly dropped due to urbanization.

The village also possessed the third place in the whole of Cyprus in relation to the extent of land, since the present villages of Souni-Zanatzia, Sotera and Sterakovou were mainly owned by residents of Vouni. Vouni residents had developed immense agricultural activity in these communities by growing cereals, carobs and olives.

Our village in the past

The first report about our village goes back to the Middle Ages and appears in Venetian maps. In particular, according to the Great Cypriot Encyclopedia, the village “is marked in the Venetian maps under the name ‘Voni’. However, it is not marked at its real present location but north of the village of Kivides”.

Neither the visitors and writers of the Middle Ages nor the 19th century travelers, reference Vouni in their texts. The same thing is observed with A. Sakellariou and G.S. Fragkoudes, who, although “they describe the villages of Kilani and Agia Mavri”, do not mention Vouni in their texts at all. A simple reference to the name is made by Jeffrey. It is very probable that the latter had never visited Vouni, and therefore simply mentions the village by its name without making any further comments.

In the old times, as local tradition preserves, there used to be four settlements in the area of the present village, which were built on low mountains. Three of them, ‘Pera Vouni’, ‘Velonaka’ and ‘Ais Mamas’, were desolated by the plague which struck Cyprus in 1692. The settlement that was salvaged, Vouni, was protected by Agios Ioannis Prodromos, to whom the main church of the village is dedicated.

According to local tradition, “there used to be a monastery there, dedicated to the saint, with several monks. Any residents of the three settlements that were saved by the horrible plague, moved to Vouni. The first houses of Vouni were built at the ‘Rotsos’ neighbourhood. Its residents were religious, progressive and hard-working. They dealt with the cultivation of the monastery’s land”.
