Remote-Controlled Solar Garden Lighting for Paphos Villas
Set the mood for dinner on the terrace, brighten the path when guests arrive, then drop everything back to a low glow, all from a handset or your phone.
Planned, installed and maintained by us, across Cyprus, whether you are on the island or not.
Walking the garden with a torch to switch lights on
Most villa gardens in Paphos end up with lighting that only has one setting: on at dusk, off at dawn. That works for the pathway, but it does not work for the evening you want the olive tree lit and the pool deck soft, or the night you hear something near the boundary and want the whole plot bright for a few minutes. So you walk out with a torch, crouch behind a shrub and press a tiny button on each fitting.
Owners who are away for part of the year have the opposite problem. The garden runs on whatever setting it was left on, which may be far too bright for the neighbours or far too dim for the housekeeper arriving after dark. Adjusting it means asking someone to visit and handle each unit individually.
Then there is the retrofit question. The garden is planted, the paving is laid, the pool is tiled, and nobody wants a wired control circuit cut back through it. The honest frustration is not the light itself, it is that the control sits in the wrong place: out in the borders instead of in your hand.
Each lamp carries its own panel and battery. Nothing is trenched, nothing is metered, and the switching happens by itself at dusk.

Why Not Just Order a Box
What separates these from supermarket solar stakes
A store sells the light and disappears
We install it, and we come back to maintain it. That is not a promise about the product, it is a checkable fact about how we work, and it is the one thing no box shipper can offer.
Numbers instead of adjectives
Not premium quality but IP65, Corten steel, 3000 lumens, made to order in three to four weeks. Numbers can be checked, which is exactly why they can be believed.
Honest about the battery
Batteries age. That is physics, not a defect. Ours are replaceable, spares are kept in stock, and we fit them for you.
The Lamps We Quote Here
These are the fittings we most often specify when an owner wants control from the terrace rather than from the flowerbed. Brightness steps, colour temperature where the unit allows it and timing are set per fitting or per group at commissioning, and we show you how to change them afterwards.

Good To Know
Asked before ordering
Handset range depends on the fitting and on what sits between you and it. Thick stone walls, raised planters and long sight lines across a large plot all reduce it. During the site visit we check where you will realistically stand, usually the terrace or the entrance, and group fittings so the ones you want to control together respond together. On bigger plots we may suggest zones rather than one handset for everything.
Some fittings support app control over a local network, which means they need a working connection at the property. Where that is not reliable we lean on scheduled behaviour instead: dusk to dawn, a bright period early in the evening and a lower level later. That way the garden looks right whether or not anyone is there to press a button.
A solar fitting prioritises running the light over anything else, so after a run of dull days it may hold a lower output or shorten its lit hours and ignore brightness changes until it has charged again. That is normal behaviour rather than a fault. We talk through panel placement at the survey so the fittings that matter most get the best sun on your plot.
No. The control sits in the fitting and in your handset or phone, so there is no control cable to run and no trenching through finished planting or paving. This is one of the reasons owners choose it for a garden that is already established.
Every garden is quoted individually after a free first consultation. Pambos handles the site visit, the planning and the written proposal, so you see what is specified for your plot rather than a generic list. Ordering is always invoiced.
