The quiet east of the north coast
Esentepe lies well to the east of Kyrenia, a quiet stretch between the mountains and the sea. It has grown with new developments in recent years, and alongside British, Russian-speaking and other international residents there are many owners who spend part of the year here and part abroad. Their travel calendars are busy — which is exactly why it matters that their pets stay in the same safe place, with the same routine, every time they go away.
Let's plan the longer journey together
The drive from Esentepe to Dikmen takes approximately 35–40 minutes, depending on traffic and the season. Esentepe shares a transfer zone with Alsancak, Lapta and Çatalköy, and home pick-up and drop-off is available here too; the cost is shown in your personalised quote. Because the distance is a little longer, we take care over the details:
- We confirm transfer times when you book; in busy periods such as summer and New Year, planning early makes life easier.
- In summer we time the journey for early morning or the cool of late afternoon.
- If you have a flight, we set the pick-up time around it; on your return we bring your pet home at a convenient time once you have settled back in.
- We collect the carrier or lead, vaccination card, their usual food and any medication.
For the longer drive, we suggest putting an absorbent mat in your cat's carrier and taking your dog for a short walk before setting off. If your return is delayed or your dates change, let us know as soon as you can and we will re-plan the drop-off time together.
Close by, even when you're far away
Every guest has a private, cage-free room of their own; our cat and dog wings are completely separate, with no contact between them. With 24/7 supervision and regular check-ups by our in-house vet, your pet is in safe hands. We send photos and videos every day and arrange a video call whenever you ask. If you will be away for a long time, ask about our long-stay discount. If you are flying from Larnaca, remember that pets cannot cross the Green Line.
