Vacation Rental Description

This modern, yet traditional Greek villa sits on a hill overlooking 
the Aegean sea and the nearby islands of Naxos, Ios, Amorgos, 
Skinoussa, and Iraklia. Located halfway between the large villages 
of Parikia and Naousa it has a quiet country setting with close 
access to all of the tourist attractions. Marble floors, graceful 
archways, white stucco walls with Aegean Blue trim immerse you in 
the Greek Cycladic island ambiance. Mature gardens of palm, flowers 
and fruit trees, bouganvillia covered stone walls and arches, 
combined with the view from the veranda and terraces, join to form 
the idyllic and serene setting that you are looking for on a Greek 
island getaway.

Vacation Rental Amenities

This two-bedroom self-catering villa, which can sleep 8 people, has 
a modern kitchen with refrigerator and freezer, 4-burner stove and 
oven, double sink, dishwasher and micro-wave. Automatic coffee-
maker, electric can opener, toaster, and a complete set of dishes, 
silverware, and cooking utensils will meet all of your kitchen 
needs. While not often needed, the villa has an air-
conditioning/heating system. On the terrace outside the main 
entrance you will find a washing machine, and an outdoor barbecue on 
which you can try your hand at your own souvlaki. The villa is 
equipped with two bathrooms, one on each floor, both with showers. A 
large master bedroom on the bottom floor is set up for two persons, 
and with a Greek style sofa that converts to two twin beds, this 
room can accommodate 4. The adjoining living room, with satellite TV 
and entertainment center has another Greek style sofa, and can sleep 
an additional 2 persons. A spiral staircase connects to the dining 
room where 8-10 can comfortably dine at the table. Off of the 
kitchen upstairs is a second bedroom with 2 single beds. This 
bedroom opens up through double doors to the upstairs shaded 
veranda, equipped with a large dining table, deck chairs and 
loungers. The veranda provides a peaceful setting for watching the 
sun emerge over nearby Naxos, absorbing moonrises that reflect off 
the Aegean, and watching the fishing boats, sailboats and ferries as 
they ply their paths between the islands.

Cleaning and linen change service is provided at the end of each 
week’s stay, and if you care for more frequent service, this can be 
arranged by you separately by contacting the caretakers, whose 
telephone numbers are provided at the villa.

Activities and Attractions

This villa is situated directly above Chrisi Akti, or Golden Beach, 
the best beach on the island of Paros. This beach is also the place 
to come for windsurfing. It has hosted Olympic and European 
championship competitions. You can rent the needed equipment at the 
Beach. 

The villa is located about 2 kilometers north of the village of 
Drios and 5 kilometers south of the villages of Marpissa and Piso 
Livadi. All of these villages have grocery stores, shops, excellent 
tavernas and friendly island people.

In the summer months, nightlife exists within these villages; in the 
shoulder seasons the tourist nightlife is active in the main island 
villages of Naousa and Parikia. From the villa it is about 18 
kilometers to Naousa, and 26 kilometers to Parikia. Both of these 
villages have the typical Cycladic island myriad of sinuous streets, 
designed to confuse the attacking pirates in ancient times. Today 
they make it nearly impossible for the tourists to retrace their 
steps to the one of many artisan shops where it was planned to 
purchase a vacation souvenir.

Paros is a major hub of inter-island traffic, which makes it the 
ideal location from which to make day-trips to nearby islands. By 
high-speed ferry it is a short journey to Mykinos, where a local 
ferry will transport you to Delos, the birthplace of the Greek gods. 
This is one of the best ancient historical sites in all of Greece, 
with many ruins of the temples built for the gods, along with 
remaining statues and intricate mosaic floors. Another trip by high-
speed ferry will take you to Santorini, one of the most often 
visited of the Cycladic islands. With its impressive villages rising 
along the steep cliffs of the now dormant volcano, it offers 
spectacular views. The nearby island of Antiparos can be reached by 
a 15 minute local ferry ride, and the trip there to the caves 
located on the mountain top is worth it.

Hiking trails abound on the island of Paros, with many popular 
trails leading to still functioning monasteries, and to the island’s 
mountain tops, where a cool mist is often hiding the peaks. 
Horseback riding tours can also be arranged.

For smaller children, a go-kart track is located between Parikia and 
Naousa, as well as a water slide facility.

If sailing is your thing, a number of sail boats are available for 
charter on the island of Paros. A large sailboat charter business is 
operated out of nearby Syros. When chartering a sailboat in Greece 
it is necessary to hold a Greek sailboat captain’s license. 
Otherwise, you will have to engage a licensed pilot to accompany you 
on your excursion. This is probably a good thing, as the waters of 
the Cycladic islands are some of the most challenging in all the 
world when the summer Meltemi winds are blowing. A Cycladic sailing 
experience will allow you to better relate to the trials of Ulysses 
during the Odyssey.
