We had a spacious room with a private patio that had views of the water and Antiparos. The breakfast was very nice with lots of choice and we also had an enjoyable lunch on the day we arived. The pool is fabulous and we enjoyed a couple of swims and lounging around. The hotel is out of town and not well located to transport, although they do provide transfers to Parik...

We had a great stay here! The lady who owned it was so helpful - told us all the best beaches, places to see, restaurants and anything else we asked. For the price the rooms were fine, the bathroom floods every time you turn the shower on though. Air conditioning worked really well, wifi was ok in the rooms but worked great in the lobby area. The location is great! Wal...

We stayed in Honeymoon Villa 1. Beautiful accommodation, well laid out with everything you could need space wise. Few more posts and pans and things like a bottle opener would be good. But Daniel was really quick to iron out any issues and find us anything we needed. Facilities around the pool where great..plenty of choice for sunbeds etc. The pool is salt water which...

was meet by the rudest person i have ever meet(ovner). she didnt even say hello and gave us absolutely no information.. The rooms were small and not cosy, no waterboiler, no he or coffee, no service at all and lousy breakfast. Worst experience I can remember. avoid if you can.

The rooms, courtyard, and overall hotel were very clean and well maintained. Staff very warm. Furniture was new but has an interesting eastern European look. Location on map (at least when I booked) is incorrect though. It's not in the middle of Naoussa but farther up on the main road leading west out of it. A good amount of traffic noise on that road so be sure to get...

This was our second time staying at Flora & Agelos. The apartments are spotless, air conditioned, adjacent to Golden Beaches with a wonderful private, sandy beach- a rarity in Greece. Flora, the manager, is so warm and accommodating. She brought us tomatoes and grapes from her gardens and greeted us each morning with her joyful voice. Some apartments enjoy sea views, a...

The Villa is beautiful with big swimming pool. The people were very helpful and attentive. The host has a very good taste - from the tea bags to shower gels, we can feel that he is looking for the best. The breakfast is very decent, bakery are homemade, jams are homemade (he even gave us one as souvenir!) with fresh orange juice. Good restaurant recommendation (he ...

We loved our 3 nights at Villa Isabella. Both Johanna & Isabella were so friendly & welcoming. The view from our balcony (particularly of the sunset) was spectacular. Very short walk into the centre of Naoussa for restaurants/ bars & bus stop to get back to the port. Highly recommend!

Excellent however u need to hire a vehicle it's too far out of town. But it's cheap to hire anything so worth staying here we loved it. They pick u up from ferry too which really is awesome for travellers first time to Paros. We wish the family well we were here when the country was on the brink !

Great value for money. Room was clean. AC and hot shower worked well. The wifi signal was weak from our room but worked well in the lobby area. Excellent view of the beach from our balcony. About 700meters from the ferry/bus terminal so it's easy to get around. Plenty of restaurants,cafes,bars, in the area. Would definitely stay here again if we go back to Paros.

The hotel staff were friendly and could advise on sights to see, bus timetables, recommended restaurants. The owner was kind enough to point out the main sights around the island by car and also dropped me off at a recommended restaurant. The rooms were what you would expect of a two star hotel. The shower with curtain was a little small so the water tended to run out ...

Enjoyed our stay, great island life. Owner and staff very friendly, we had front room, had great view of the harbour/beach good sized room, nice soft bed and pillows. Small kitchen was quite good,could cook breakfast or a meal,if you chose to. Lots of restaurants nearby and nice beach opposite. Thanks Alexandra

Marisa and her mum did everything they could to ensure I had what I needed for my stay on Paros. They were kind and welcoming. They provided me with transport to and from the port; although the distance was close, it was still ver gracious and kind. If ever I return to Paros, it will stay with Marisa again and will definitely recommend this hostel to friends heading th...

The studio is lovely, good size, terrace with sea view and really clean. It's also in a good position, dryos is a very small village but you can easily reach naousa and parikia within 20/30 min by motorcycle. The lady is really nice and friendly. We really enjoyed our stay here and I would suggest this place to everyone!

This charming hotel really was an exceptional find. I thought the low price was too good to be true, but when we arrived not only did the owner come to pick us up at the pier, but we found an adorable hotel with stunning sea views a lovely terrace and an absolutely fantastic bathroom including one of the most luxurious showers we have had in Greece. If you travel to ...

During low season the place was pretty deserted, but there were clear postings how to reach someone for check in and he was there very quickly. The reception was closed so no breakfast but they recommended a great place very close by. The rooms are great. Best bathroom I've had in greece with plenty of hot water for the best shower. The location is awesome right by...

Located on a small beach only 10 minutes walk into Naoussa. Fabulous pool and breakfast. Welcome cocktail on arrival. Rooms nicely appointed however, we were given one up the back which was right opposite the entrance to the kitchen, so was a bit noisy and had a steady stream of people coming and going and the internet did not reach there. There are a lot of stair...

We have stayed for a week during springtime. There are so many outstanding features: Let’s begin with their wonderful Greek hospitality. The family and staff are so friendly, welcoming and genuinely pleased that you have chosen their hotel. The accommodation is comfortable, exceptionally clean, bright and airy. It exudes such a peaceful and relaxing vibe. The apartment...

Mike's son waited for us at the jetty and we were upgraded to Mike's apartment a bit further from jetty. It has a full kitchen and washing machine. We met Mike in the evening and mike is a great guy. Supermarket was just around the corner. Great location and great island Greeks' kindness that are already gone from Santorini and Mykonos.

The Panorama overlooks Pisso Livadi, a lovely corner of Paros. The room we received superceded any expectations we had for the price ($35). Scrupulously clean, new fixtures, everything anyone could need for a holiday stay. Every question we had for Artemis received a prompt and correct answer (transportation, food, etc) as well as a huge smile. The woman is a wonder an...

Great location, perfect view of the town, only a 10 minute walk to the restaurant strip, close to a beautiful beach that hardly anyone uses. The room was lovely, with basic cooking facilities and a balcony -exactly what we needed. The staff were great, they cleaned our room without us even asking and they even drove us to the airport at 530am to catch our flights. Perf...

The staff at Akrotiri truly are beautiful people who made our stay just wonderful. The view from the property and pool is just amazing too, and so is the breakfast. It is located 30 mins walk outside of Paros town (Parika port) but they drop you in via car if you ask. We would Recommend car, scooter or AV transport to people staying in the future as it's a long hill to...

Naoussa is quite dissappointing for us, we find the people here are not very friendly and are being racist to us. My husband asked questions and instead they responded towards me and completely ignored him. Hotel was ok, clean overall. Can be a little noisy at night if you are facing the sea view.

The property itself is GORGEOUS. The rooms are sparkly clean, very detailed decorations, great breakfast; and of all- the staffs' hospitality level is beyond amazing. Staffs at the reception, bar, everywhere had welcomed us like their own family and made us feel like we were somehow actually at home! My mama and I regretted so much that we only dedicated one day in P...

The biggest pro of the Kontaratos studios are the hosts - George and Marianna are super nice and sweet people which will do anything to help you. About the place itself- nice location in a small and quite street, less than 5min to the beach, around 10 to the harbour (walking), clean, spacious, airco, free pickup and drop-off, discounts for some restaurants, good wi-fi....

Great hotel located a short walk from Náousa centre. Chrys was very welcoming and a great host.
