A tranquil 500-year-old hideaway, set in the historic old town's centre overlooking Parikia's main square, this charming apartment is the ideal island bolthole for a couple or a solo traveller looking to explore the picturesque island of Paros. With your helpful hosts on hand, you can toss out the guidebook and simply ask them for those tips and tricks that only locals know about. For an authentic island experience, it doesn't get much better than this.

Tucked away down an alleyway in one of the oldest buildings on the island, the unmistakable blue doors lead into a quaint tiled courtyard with a table and chairs set up for you to enjoy your morning coffee outdoors. Step through the quirky archway door and into this peaceful haven, furnished with pieces created by skilled local craftspeople. Hand-carved stone peeks out from the walls throughout the home, and an original Cycladic fireplace adds plenty of character to the bedroom.

Step through a second interior archway and you'll find a sparkling modern kitchen that's perfect for recreating traditional taverna classics in the comfort of your own home. But with all the recommendations you'll have been provided, it might be a while before it sees any action.

Away from Paros, discover awe-inspiring natural beauty, picture-perfect golden beaches and crystal-clear seas. Head inland to explore the whitewashed hilltop village of Lefkes, 11km away, or continue another 9km to the east coast for a white knuckle windsurfing experience in one of the world's premier destinations. Alternatively, board a boat in the nearby port and explore some of the neighbouring islands.

At this traditional villa, you're well catered for when it comes to alfresco areas and achingly beautiful ocean views – including several deck chairs, poolside sun loungers, covered seating and a dining area, complete with a built-in barbecue. Inside, timber-framed ceilings and stone floors shape the space as a whole, while Cretan pots, nautical decor and blue-white furnishings create a characterful home with plenty of visual interest. 

Days begin outside, with a freshly brewed cup of Greek coffee on the sea-facing terrace, watching the waves lapping up the shore. Swim a couple of leisurely lengths in your private infinity pool, before picking out a lounger to while away the hours in the Mediterranean sunshine. 

When dinnertime beckons, grill locally sourced produce and feast together under the shaded pergola. Or, head into Paros town for a celebratory dinner in one of the local tavernas, just fifteen minutes away by taxi.

Summer Blue

Access to Beach

This west-facing property is gorgeous at all times of day, but it's particularly impressive at sunset. With plenty of space for a large group, an awe-inspiring location, and a range of fabulous facilities, you'll fall in love with this special spot in no time at all.  

Step inside, and you'll find a light and airy space that's cloaked in neutral shades with the occasional hint of blue, reminding you of the waterside location. The white-washed exterior and painted wooden shutters are a charming nod to the area's traditional architecture, while the coastal views are second-to-none. Sit on the balcony with a coffee and admire the vistas, before plunging into the infinity pool for a better look. And, as evening rolls around, you can serve up a delicious meal freshly grilled on the barbeque – don't forget the chilled white wine. 

The home has direct access to the local beach, where you can take a dip in the sparkling waters. The island's main town, Parikia, is just a fifteen-minute drive away, and there you'll find pretty cobbled streets, tiny churches, and little boutiques – it's one of the most typical Cycladic settlements. When you get hungry, head to one of the tavernas to enjoy some of the local seafood, freshly landed at the port that very day. 

Sunset on the Island

In the hills above the charming fishing village of Aliki, this brand new villa has beautiful sea and sunset views. In Aliki, you’ll find a handful of restaurants and upmarket tavernas lining the seafront, traditional bakeries and two sweeps of sandy beach. And it’s just a fifteen-minute drive to Paros town to catch the ferry or simply explore a charming harbour town.

The first thing you’ll notice on arrival at this villa is the beautiful view of the Aegean Sea from the terrace. Perhaps this is best enjoyed while soaking in the hot tub and plunge pool, or while reclining on the built-in sofas and sunbeds. Dining outdoors comes courtesy of a shaded pergola.

The view continues inside, where big windows in the bright living room take in the sea panorama. It’s open-plan living, designed for socialising on plush sofas and around the big dining table. Bedrooms are soothing havens in dove-grey, dusky pink and pristine white, and each one opens up to the terrace, so you can pad barefoot straight from bed to lounger.

When presented with this prime spot in the south of Paros with a glorious view of the sparkling Aegean Sea in the distance, the two civil engineers that designed this villa decided to opt for simplicity. Judging by the finished project, we'd say that was a wise choice.

The building embraces Cycladic architectural trends for clean lines, boxy shapes and pure white walls. The outside space is dominated by the swimming pool, which is surrounded by loungers and a covered terrace area that's home to a traditional stone barbecue. It's perfectly possible to spend your whole day out here, admiring the Mediterranean panorama.

Heading inside, the generously sized rooms are home to contemporary furnishings and a sleek minimalist kitchen, although there are enough quirky touches to keep it from looking too anonymous – the driftwood lampshade above the dining table is particularly eye-catching. On the lower ground floor, there's also a large multi-functional room that holds workout equipment and games.

As you can guess from the coastal view, the nearest beach isn't too far away – Paralia Makra Miti takes only seven minutes to reach on foot. The town of Alyki is a five-minute drive away and the island's main town of Paroikia takes a quarter of an hour.

When you set your eyes on this villa, you’ll know you’re somewhere special – its white exterior creates a powerful juxtaposition to the grey brick walls that flank it. The chic interior's neutral colours, wood furniture and copious amounts of decorative ceramics make a calming base to retreat to after a day of exploring.

You and your guests will relish breaking bread in the outdoor dining area, overlooking incredible views of the nearby waters, before heading over to the sofas for a cocktail or glass of ouzo. During the day, the history buffs will want to head over to the Castle of Antiparos, while those less-inclined head off to take a dip in the Aegean Sea at one of the island’s many beaches.

Brick & Modern

Espresso Machine

If sweeping views out to sea are what you’re looking for, you’ll love this modern villa. Tucked away in a peaceful residential area on the east side of Paros, this crisp, clean space boasts views of the Aegean from the living room – what more could you want from your Grecian getaway? 

The property has been designed in a horseshoe shape, with the pool and terrace at its heart. The communal spaces and bedrooms lead straight outside, allowing you to embrace the flow of island living. We loved waking up in the morning and slipping straight out of bed and into the pool for a dip, before filling up on pastries and fresh fruit at the breakfast bar. 
For evening meals, you can head to Parikia – just 4km away – or do as we did and fire up the charcoal barbecue. The outdoor dining area is covered by a pergola, handily hidden away at the back of the property for added privacy. Load up fresh seafood and local wine, and settle in for a feast. 

For those able to drag themselves away from the pool, there’s plenty to see and do nearby. The beautiful beaches of Parasporos and Agia Irini are just a few minutes’ drive from the villa, and an excursion to Antiparos, a small island in the southern Aegean, makes for a memorable day out. Hop on a ferry from the petite port of Punta and while away the hours meandering along cobbled streets. Admire the white houses and the magnificent flowers that bloom in the gardens before heading back to the villa to take in the sunset with a cocktail. 


We’ll Always Have Paros

Paros' fertile lands play host to fig trees, olive groves, vineyards, and aromatic herbs – a truly sensory experience alongside visual delights of the landscape and the smell of sea air. While organic beauty is all around, there are also manmade wonders dotted about the island. In the northeastern seaside town of Ambelas (just a ten-minute walk from a beach of the same name) this modern villa is sure to impress.

Set upon a peaceful hillside, this sprawling home has the typical whitewashed walls and shaded terraces you might expect from a Greek villa. However, it’s far from traditional inside. Perfectly minimalist, its simple white colour scheme and understated furniture allow the colourful sea views to really sing. You can access terraces and courtyards directly from each bright bedroom, making the outdoor space the real heart of the home.

Take a dip in your infinity pool before mixing cocktails to sip on the sun loungers. Or you might want to heat up the barbecue while you set up for dinner beneath the pergola. Solar panels power the magical lighting that illuminates the entire villa by night – as if you needed an excuse to pop a bottle of champagne and sit under the stars on a balmy evening.

Reflect & Illuminate

Take in panoramic views of the Aegean Sea from this magical villa on the equally magical island of Paros. Ideal for a large group of friends or a family getaway, the spacious home comes equipped with a private pool, multiple terraces and a choice of spots to gather around and enjoy a wholesome Greek-inspired meal.

Inside the villa, sleek decor, luxury finishes and a restful colour scheme invite you to slip into a holiday mindset from the moment you arrive. The high-spec kitchen is a dream for keen cooks, fitted with everything you'll need to prepare something special. We love the front-facing bedrooms that look through stone archways and onto the rolling countryside, speckled with sugar cube houses and olive trees.

Amble toward's Parikia's town centre, less than half an hour away (or five minutes by car, if you've chosen to hire one), and absorb the bustling atmosphere at beachfront tavernas and tucked-away cocktail bars. Closer to home, Delfini Beach is a peaceful place to spend an afternoon, with translucent waters and far-reaching views over the bay.

Located on the southwestern part of Paros, we find this well-kept whitewashed villa with stunning views of Antiparos. This two-level home has several terraces with outdoor seating, which the bedrooms have direct access to. It also has access to a shared pool and features a private hot tub – perfect for taking in those Greek sunsets. Cook up a storm in the fully-equipped kitchen or treat yourself to a chef-cooked meal instead. For a fun day out with the kids, visit the Butterflies Nature Reserve or watch the kite-surfers at Paralia Pounta beach. 

The Butterfly Machine

Cool off in the infinity pool as you take in the views over the sparkling blue Aegean Sea at this gorgeous villa. Then enjoy a long, lazy barbecue lunch – anyone for more souvlaki? Later, do some stargazing with the telescope in the stylish living room or simply relax on the chaise sofa with a glass of ouzo – bliss.

If you tire of the pool, unlikely we know, then head to Aliki Beach, a ten-minute walk or one-minute drive away – do some scuba diving or unwind at the bars here. Or, explore Parikia (ten minutes in the car), where you’ll find plenty of shops and fine restaurants down its narrow cobbled streets and around its harbour. History lovers, on the other hand, can check out the Panagia Myrtidiotissa Monastery, around an eight-minute ride.


In The Mustardseed Sun

Dramatically overlooking the Aegean and surrounded by acres of Mediterranean countryside, this laidback villa is all about taking it easy in the sunshine. Pick a spot to relax on the sprawling patio – will it be a poolside lounger or a comfy sofa in the shade? When lunchtime rolls around, head upstairs to the covered balcony and tuck into Greek-inspired dishes accompanied with unobstructed views of the landscape. 

Inside, expect modern design meets boho chic. The living space is all white, wood, and linen, with subtle blue accents that match the colour of the nearby surf. Bedrooms are simple yet cosy – the perfect combination for an uninterrupted night’s sleep. 

When you’re not gently swaying with the breeze in the wicker egg chair or sipping an iced coffee on the terrace, you’ll be lounging on the sands of Agia Irini Beach, a seven-minute car ride away. If you’re keen to stretch your legs, take a stroll through the Agios Charalampos-Lagkada Nature Reserve – it’s less than a ten-minute drive from your doorstep.

Safe

This home on the island of Paros is a true sanctuary in every sense of the word. With plenty of space both inside and out, and a quiet location in the village of Aliki, it's the ideal place to press pause and recharge your batteries.

With a rustic stone exterior and thick white walls, the villa has a traditional air. The inside space is a haven of calm, with neutral shades and the occasional pop of colour, making you feel welcome as soon as you arrive. It's a great place to kick back and relax, but we think you'll want to spend most of your time outside soaking up the Greek sunshine. Stretch out on a lounger and catch some rays, before plunging into the pool and floating under the blue sky. And, when evening rolls around, you can fire up the barbeque and mix your favourite cocktails at the bar area. 

The village centre is just half a kilometre away from your front door, and has a small collection of restaurants and tavernas where you can dine on local fare. There's also a sandy beach with crystal clear water, and a picture-perfect harbour full of fishing boats. And, if you want to explore further afield, take a drive over to Parikia, the island's port – it's just 11km away and is full of gorgeous Cycladic architecture.

After a day exploring the beautiful coastline, the secluded setting of this home immerses you in an oasis of calm. Watch the sunset across the horizon, light up the barbecue and enjoy the best of island life from the beautiful terrace. 

Abode of Bliss

Throws

Set amidst two acres of olive trees, this bright and breezy villa is the perfect place to relax in the Grecian sunshine. Mixing traditional Cycladic style with modern comforts, the interior is open and perfect for unwinding after a long afternoon exploring the island. Begin the day with a refreshing dip in the small pool, then dry off on one of the poolside lounge chairs. Later on, sprawl out on the outdoor sofa for a snooze in the sun or simply sit with a cocktail and admire the views of the sea in the distance. As the night starts to roll in, fire up the barbecue for an alfresco feast, then pour yourself a cocktail and spend the evening chatting and laughing underneath the star-scattered sky.

It's the location, however, that's even better. It's just a three-minute walk to Parasporos Beach, where you can nibble on snacks at the waterfront tavernas or swim in the crystal clear ocean. For a bit more buzz, the capital, Parikia (also known as Paros) is only five minutes by car – head there for chic cocktail bars, pretty cobbled lanes lined with boutique shops and trendy eateries right by the sea.

Where Olives Spring

Atop a hill, overlooking the vast Aegean Sea, this villa exudes tranquility. The laid-back, breezy living space is the perfect place to begin slow-start mornings. Kick back with a cup of coffee before heading out onto the terrace for an alfresco breakfast with your loved ones. And when the temperature starts to rise, make a beeline for the communal infinity pool. After a mid-afternoon snooze in the clutter-free bedrooms, get out and explore your surroundings. 

The charming fishing village of Naousa is just a short drive from your doorstep. Lunch by the port then stroll through the cobblestone streets to Piperi Beach. Lie back on the golden sands and listen to gentle waves lap the shore. In the evening, return home for a barbecued feast of local produce as the sun melts into the horizon.

Go As a Dream

Built in 2019, this modern villa boasts a contemporary design whilst maintaining a traditionally Greek vibe. Deluxe fittings shape the interior, offering a warm contrast from the stone exterior. It has the high-end class of a five-star hotel with the comfort of an intimate home.

Leisurely mornings are made to be spent in the cosy outdoor space. Wake up with a refreshing dip in the pool, sip your morning coffee on the comfy chairs or sunbathe on the loungers. There's an activity for every mood.

Come the evening, the social seating space under the pergola is an idyllic spot for carefree conversation. Share stories with a cocktail and grilled halloumi from the BBQ, all whilst watching the gorgeous tones of sunset. 

For the more active types, a play room and gym let you work off the feta from the night before. You can also satisfy your thirst for adventure with a trip around the beautiful island of Paros. Various towns are located nearby, welcoming you into their vibrant tavernas and bars. 

Of course, no trip to Greece is complete without sampling the stunning beaches that shape the coastline. Grab a towel, lay on the golden sands and achieve that sun-kissed glow.


Modern Tradition

Beach / Pool Towels

Welcome to a two-story villa, offering appeal beyond the typical. Nestled in Paros, it gazes at the mesmerising Aegean Sea and captures Santa Maria's distinct beach charm. Designed for seven individuals, it unveils three inviting bedrooms that evoke relaxation. The floor layout is stylised with a modern touch - one bedroom presents an en-suite bathroom on the ground floor, juxtaposed by a fully stocked kitchen and a dining room offering social interaction. The open lounge area is dramatized with immense windows, delivering captivating sea views de rigueur. Ascending to the second floor reveals masterly configured bedrooms; one furnished with a king-size bed alongside twin beds in another room. A generously-sized bathroom serves these rooms, ensuring comfort. To top it off, the Junior Villa opens out onto two exterior spaces - a balcony and veranda, furnished tastefully for true escapism amidst picture-perfect panoramas.

Aegean Aura

Set just a short drive from the quaint fishing village of Ambelas and only a few steps away from Damuli Beach, this whitewashed villa overlooking the Aegean Sea is all about slowing down and kicking back in the glorious sunshine. We imagine you’ll begin mornings outside, lapping up Greek yoghurt with lashings of honey on the shaded terrace before calling dibs on the daybed. Plunge into the pool for a refreshing swim then find a spot by the blooming violet to get stuck into a good book. 

When lunchtime rolls around, gather herbs from the garden and season local produce to perfection as the barbecue heats up. After a good feasting, grab your seaside essentials and head over to Naoussa. Sink your toes into the golden sand of Piperi Beach or stroll around the streets bursting with bougainvillaea.

This lovely home combines traditional features and a certain rustic charm with modern elements and amenities, creating a perfect balance between old and new. Set amid tranquil countryside around three kilometres from Parikia, the capital of charming Paros, and just three hundred metres from Parasporos Beach, the home enjoys a somewhat secluded and peaceful location. Spend days by the pool loafing on comfortable loungers or on the furnished veranda. Or sip a sundowner on the first-floor balcony, gazing out over the landscape and shimmering sea. Within the grounds, you will find eggs from free-range chickens, organic fruit and vegetables, and a wine cellar filled with local selections – all of which you are welcome to try during your stay.

Perfect Balance

Imagine waking up to stunning views across rolling hills and a glistening coastline. Well, this beautiful home in Southwest Paros transforms this vision into a reality. Surrounded by olive trees and set within a 2.2–acre estate, the natural elements of this home inspire a deep sense of relaxation. 

There’s a peaceful atmosphere that permeates this home.

Gentle mornings can be spent simply watching the captivating views, followed by a light breakfast outside in the fresh air. 

You might find it hard to leave this home, but the coastline of this region is filled with beautiful beaches, such as Paralia Agia Irini – only a six–minute drive away. Don’t miss the pretty village of Parikia – a twelve–minute drive. This makes a great spot to soak up the local atmosphere from one of the bars or restaurants. 

You’ll love the feeling of coming home to this sanctuary on the hillside. Watch the sunset across the Aegean and raise a glass to the beauty of life.

Sun Umbrellas

Surrounded by the beautiful natural landscape of Paros, this villa boasts uninterrupted panoramic views of the Aegean Sea and the Bay of Paroikia. Part of a villa residence, the property is made up of two separate detached buildings with a shared swimming pool. In true Cycladic style, art inspirations are reflected throughout the bedrooms and onto the private balcony – a real highlight for some extra privacy. We’d recommend hiring a car here as the nearest beach is 3 kilometres away and Paros Port an extra twenty-minute drive – perfect for a day-trip to Mykonos, Tinos or Syros. 

Arch & Macrame

It is newly built, located right on the beach and overlooking the striking beach of Molos. This private villa is a vacation paradise for those who want to relish in the serenity and immerse themselves in the island's natural beauty.

The interior is minimal in design and affluent in amenities, proposing to pamper you and help you leave everything behind. Neutral hues, well-crafted built-in furniture, Cycladic architectural details, and smooth lines create a paragon of homely luxury. The 130 sqm villa comfortably accommodates 6 guests and offers three spacious and airy bedrooms; one master bedroom with ensuite, plus one twin and one queen sharing a bathroom. All bedrooms have Smart TVs in case guests would like to enjoy a movie in bed. When in the living room, guests can gaze at the sea views during the day and step outside to watch the magical sunset colors in the evening.

Outside, take a moment to revive with a dip in the swimming pool or sunbathe all day long – or if preferred, dip toes in the sand and have an afternoon swim in the sea, which is literally at your doorstep. Appreciate private moments and admire the majestic sea view from the villa's sun loungers. Stay under the shaded pergola during the afternoon and enjoy alfresco barbeque dinners in the dining area under the moonlight.

On the eastern side of Paros lies Molos bay and the homonymous village. The beach offers pure beauty and wonderful views of Naxos island, located 18 km away from Parikia, the island's capital. Nearby is a market within walking distance. While Summer Salt Villa is a perfect private haven to escape from it all, it's also well worth exploring the beautiful island of Paros during one's stay.

Seashell Sanctum

Parking On Street

Blending the luxury of a modern Greek villa with the relaxation of a spa, this Cycladic compound of villas seduces at every turn. Sprawling gardens lined with tropical plants and impressive views across the Aegean will instantly make you feel like you’ve arrived in paradise. 

This home is like your own private estate – spread across multiple buildings that connect through terraces and pergolas – perfect for guests seeking some privacy and restoration, as well as socialising.

Wake up in total seclusion, with the soft Mediterranean breeze washing over you, then step onto one of the balconies, where you can sip fresh grapefruit juice and do your morning meditations. Start the day with a yoga session under the cabana, enjoy a sauna session in the Turkish-style hammam or enjoy a few strokes of the pristine pool – endless options for your morning routine. Gather together at the wooden table for a seasonal breakfast before stretching out poolside to soak up the Aegean rays with your holiday read. As the golden hour approaches, grill up some souvlaki kebabs on the built-in barbecue, then sink into the outdoor sofas for a glass of Ouzo as the sun sets.

We can’t imagine you’ll be wanting to leave your private oasis, but if you do feel like a day out, hop in the car to the charming fishing village of Naousa. Here, you can enjoy a day on the sand and an unforgettable seafront dinner.

Cycladic Sunsets

This whitewashed villa made of ancient rock stands powerful next to the Aegean Sea. With hand-woven tassel wall hangings, wicker accented furniture, and exposed brick walls, this villa is achingly stylish and pleasing to the eye. Natural woods and tones are the running themes, and occasional pops of colour punctuate the earthiness of this almost Californian-style interior. Beautiful touches of boho chic effortlessly blend with the traditional white stone walls, making this gorgeous home bright, inviting, and warm.

While the home itself is stunning, the natural beauty of the Aegean Sea kind of steals its thunder. With plenty of outdoor space and places to rest, you'll never get bored of gazing out at the peaceful sea and watching the sunlight dance on its calm waters. If you fancy taking a dip, you're spoilt for choice with Paros' glistening beaches. Aliki Beach is an eleven-minute drive away, lined with bars and plenty of sunbeds to rent. We also love the peace and tranquillity of Paralia Agia Irini - you can walk there in twenty-eight minutes or hop in a car for a six-minute drive. Its calming energy matches that of the villa, lined with palm trees. Although you feel like you've been dropped off on a secluded island, you're never far from a beach bar. Grab yourself an icy cold Mythos and take in the sounds of the sea coming to shore, before tucking into some freshly caught seafood for lunch. 

Come the evening, when the sea air has turned to a chill, your hot tub awaits. Sample the region's local wine, nibbling on locally grown olives - you are in the midst of 2 acres of olive trees after all! 

Grecian Boho

If sun, sea, and sand are at the top of your holiday wishlist, then this home provides them all. Located on the island of Paros, just steps away from the water's edge, this villa is the perfect place to press pause on everyday life and recharge your batteries in style. 

The traditional whitewashed exterior – typical of this region – gives way to a beautiful, serene living space. The neutral colour scheme with just a hint of blue reminds you that the sea isn't far away, and you can throw open the shutters to admire the views. Step outside for a better look – sip your coffee on the balcony each morning, or stretch out on a sun lounger to catch some rays. When the temperature rises, plunge into the swimming pool for a refreshing dip, and come evening your whole group can gather on the patio for a delicious alfresco meal.

This home has direct access to the water, and is also close to several excellent beaches. Paralia Agia Irini is just a ten-minute walk away – it's bordered by palm trees and has sparkling turquoise water. If you're feeling active then take the ten-minute drive to Paros Kite Beach to try your hand at the sport, or simply kick back on the sand to watch. And, with the charming town of Parikia just a twelve-minute car ride away, culture fans can immerse themselves in the Cycladic way of life. 

Island Marble

This villa in the south of Paros is blessed with a sweeping view of the Aegean Sea and Cycladic islands on the distant horizon. Thankfully, you're not short of spots from which you can enjoy this panorama. As well as a terrace complete with an alfresco dining area, there's also a balcony on each floor to give you a little more elevation. You could even admire the landscape from the swimming pool if you so wished.

Inside, the design is big on cleansing white shades, whether on the walls, furnishings or minimalist kitchen. As well as being cooling during the summer months, this stark palette makes for a blank canvas against which colourful touches really pop off, like the wave feature wall in one of the bedrooms or the collection of house plants. It would be remiss at this point not to mention that there's a Jacuzzi in the master ensuite, too.

As you can probably guess from the view, it won't take too long to get to the beach. Farangas is a twenty-five-minute walk, for instance. The island's main town of Parikia takes a similar amount of time to reach in the car.

Marble Masterpiece

In a quiet spot between the villages of Agia Irini and Pounta, you'll find this fabulous villa. It's right on the coast, with breathtaking views across the sea to the neighbouring islands of Sifnos and Antiparos, making it the perfect place to press pause on everyday life. 

The interior is the perfect blend of traditional and contemporary – natural materials meet the clean lines, and you could spend ages admiring the artworks and hand-crafted pots lining the shelves. Each of the bedrooms has access to a balcony with a sea view, meaning you can wake up and sip your morning coffee in the fresh air. There are also plenty of peaceful spots downstairs on the terrace – find some shade under the pergola, or catch some rays from a sun lounger. 

You'll find a little pebble beach just a few steps away from the villa, where you can dip your toes in the sea and watch the marvellous sunsets. If you want to stretch out on the sand, then head to Aliki Beach – it's just six kilometres away, and offers crystal clear waters to swim in. And, with the historic main town of Parikia just ten kilometres away, culture fans will be kept happy too. 

Waterfront Wish

Scoop up your oh-so-dearest and escape to this luxurious seafront retreat for two. Tucked away on an exclusive development of six private residences fringing the cosmopolitan shores of Santa Maria Beach in northern Paros, its setting is idyllic.

Inside, the décor is bringing us all the Scandi vibes with a restful, neutral palette, while coral and driftwood accents remind you the sea is never far away. Light-filled and free-flowing, spending time together in the living space is a joy, with a corner sofa to curl up for movie nights and a beautiful dining table for intimate candlelit suppers. 

But when the sun shines, it’s outside on that oh-so-private terrace for lazy breakfasts, sundowners and everything else in between that you’ll really want to be. With stunning views of the Aegean Sea and a shared, stylish swimming pool just footsteps away, it would be impossible not to relax here. And did we mention you have a private hot tub on the terrace, too? Now we’re talking.

To Paros With Love

Whitewashed, calm and filled with the refreshing spirit of the sea – this home perfectly embodies the spirit of the Cyclades. 

Perched on the peaceful shores of Antiparos with the bustling heart of Chora just a short walk away, there’s everything you could need for a laid-back retreat – whilst also enjoying easy access to local tavernas, bars and shops. 

Days can be spent exploring the beaches along the coast, setting sail on idyllic boat trips or simply relaxing in your own private sanctuary. From leisurely swims in the pool to lazy afternoons reading in the shade and golden hour drinks served on the terrace, you’ll find it easy to settle into the relaxed rhythm of island life. 

Inside, the rooms are balanced, natural and simple – providing a quiet space to unwind and share quality time together.

This minimalistic villa is all about the location. While the interiors may be a little too simple for everyone’s taste, the ground-floor bedroom is perfect for children or those with limited mobility. Outdoors, you’re treated to alfresco dining opportunities, a private pool and sea views – all the ingredients needed for a relaxed stay. That said, adventure seekers take note – Santa Maria beach, one of the finest stretches of sea and sand on the island, is known for its watersports and is just over a kilometre away. Further afield, a fifteen-minute drive will take you to Naoussa and its golden beaches lined up around the natural bay. 

Grey Hues & Sea Views

The view of the rugged landscape blending into the beauty of the Aegean Sea is something you'll never get bored of seeing. Calming yet invigorating, the villa's idyllic location lays the perfect setting for all types of itineraries. 

The adventurous types can explore the beguiling charm of Paros. Various gorgeous beaches are decorated along the stunning coastline, including a secluded beach just 200 metres from the villa. Bask in the privacy of your surroundings as you sunbathe on the white sands or take a dip in the crisp water.

If you're up for venturing a bit further, Paros is an island drenched in allure. Enjoy hummus and taramasalata with fresh bread at a cosy taverna or sit down for an evening meal of souvlaki or moussaka. The joyous ways to spend your days are endless.

Of course, you don't have to even leave the villa to make the most of your holiday. The modern luxury of the villa acts as a serene sanctuary for a chilled day with friends and family. 

Laze by the pool with a book in the afternoon before chatting about the excitement of tomorrow in the cute outdoor space under the veranda. Relaxed or energised, the villa caters to every mood. 


Sunlight On White Marble

Unique, beautiful and with incredible views across the Aegean to the island of Antiparos, this home sits in an elevated position perfect for sun worshippers. Surrounded by olive trees and built into a slope to really make the most of the views, it sits on a large estate with just five other villas. And while you'll have two spacious, sheltered terraces, an outdoor lounge area and an eight-person Jacuzzi all to yourselves, there's also a shared infinity pool to be enjoyed.

Built with typical Cycladic architecture, the home has upside-down accommodation, with the living area and kitchen upstairs, as well as a dining terrace with incredible views and a second terrace with comfy seating – perfect for enjoying those famous sunsets. Meanwhile, the quiet bedrooms are on the ground floor, along with an outdoor area with sofas and your Jacuzzi. 

Just a five-minute drive from the little village of Aliki for a shop and restaurants, and fifteen minutes from lively Parikia, the beach at Pounta, known for its excellent windsurfing and kitesurfing, is also just a few minutes away by car.

The Gaze

Whitewashed walls, neutral tones, wicker furniture, and touches of cool-toned blue. This villa is a Greek summer dream. It's so characteristically Grecian, particularly for the island of Paros. The Cycladic architecture is instantly reminiscent of a hazy summer. Spend yours here, and you're bound to have an incredible one. 

Everywhere you turn in this home, you're greeted with wide-spanning views of the Aegean Sea and rolling mountains. Perfectly fit for a group of friends or a small family, this villa is effortlessly traditional and rustic. However, it's not short of its home comforts, with Smart TVs in every room, luxuriously soft beds, soothing air conditioning, and a hot tub right on your doorstep. Make sure to use the shared pool, which will be a welcome respite from the blazing Greek sun. Afternoons are best spent by the beach when the lowering sun shines beautifully on the calm sea. Paralia Agia Irini is particularly lovely, its tranquillity matches that of the villa. Palm trees line this small beach, a hidden treasure indeed. The beach bar is within easy reach, and a nice cold Mythos goes down exceptionally well.

Head to Parikia for a night on the town. It's just a twelve-minute drive and your gateway to the very best of Paros living. Cobbled streets are lined with   Cycladic whitewashed houses, blue shuttered windows, fuschia coloured flowers, and the sound of the sea is never too far away. Tuck in to delicious Greek cuisine - think moussaka, souvlaki, dolmades, and so much more. When you get back home, continue the good times and crack open a bottle of local wine to be enjoyed in the hot tub, as you watch the stars twinkle above you.

Mists from Morning's Sky

Offering an enviable waterfront location and a cool, beachy vibe this typically Greek-style villa on the gorgeous Greek Island of Paros provides the ideal location for a sun-soaked escape by the sea.

Lounge by the pool, catching a few rays as the waves of the Aegean gently lap at the shores, providing what we think might be the most relaxing soundtrack in the world, replicate some of the dishes you've found on your explorations of the island, grilling up crunchy vegetables and marinated seafood on the barbecue with a glass of chilled wine in hand, or find a cosy corner in which to park yourself with a good book. 

The home sits on a large plot, so that, coupled with the tranquil sea views, makes this place feel serene, private, and at one with its surroundings. Make the most of the laid-back atmosphere and grab yourself a cocktail, head to one of the terraces or balconies, and watch as the sun begins to dip low and kiss the crests of the waves.

When you do want to leave the tranquillity of the villa, you'll find yourself within walking distance of beautiful beaches (other than the one right in front of the home), and a short drive from the pretty port town of Naousa, home to whitewashed buildings, shops, and lively tavernas.

Riding On the Crest of a Wave

With its stunning panoramic views of the Aegean Sea and the isle of Mykonos, this villa provides the perfect spot for reunions or family get-togethers.

The Windflower

Boasting a full-equipped kitchen and an open fireplace, there are plenty of homely touches here, while outside you’ll find a swimming pool which is shared with the nearby villas.
