Escape to Paros Island, Greece
Best time to visit: April- October
Best for: Couples, Families, Friends and Honeymooners
Spend a glorious week in a seaside villa on the lovely island of Paros, Greece: Enjoy swimming, sailing and hiking in a setting of whitewashed villages, blue-domed churches, blonde-sand beaches, and charming fishing harbors.
Escape to the lesser known, and less crowded, Greek island of Paros for classic Cycladic architecture, magical beaches, enchanting rural villages, and historical monuments.
What to expect
While the character of many Greek islands has been compromised by tourism, Paros has managed to preserve some integrity and local spirit in a way that other islands have not. Paros sits in the heart of the Aegean Sea and belongs to the island group of the Cyclades. Paros is a mix of traditional Cycladic architecture, magical beaches, enchanting rural villages, and historical monuments. The island is alternately described as Greece’s best-kept secret and its biggest up-and-comer. Find out why on your private journey to Paros.
In keeping with the character of Paros, this trip is a very relaxed experience with plenty of downtime to encourage enjoyment of your seaside villa and the island. Dress code (if you can call it that) is beach casual. Most days you will go straight from the beach to meals or shopping – pack a swimsuit and a chic cover up and you’re ready to go! If you feel like staying in, dinners can be arranged at your villa where you will have a talented private chef who will give you a taste of authentic, home cooked Greek cuisine.
