Villas in Paros

Find Your Extraordinary

Paros Villa Holiday

Known for its marble architecture, soft sandy beaches and rich history, Paros strikes a balance between Cycladic charm and lively Greek life. Sun-drenched lanes, sugar-cube houses and that easy shimmer of the Aegean redefine effortlessly beautiful. Spend your days in bustling Naoussa or slow things down in Piso Livadi, where fishing boats set the pace. Wander Parikia’s ancient sites and candlelit chapels, or follow the quieter curve of the Byzantine Trail through hills and villages like Lefkes. When it’s time for a dip, sculpted coves at Kolymbithres and the breezy shores of Golden Beach are never too far. Our extraordinary villas place you at the heart of Paros at its most captivating.

Why visit Paros? 

Paros is the kind of island where days shape themselves: a slow morning swim, a wander through whitewashed backstreets, an early evening aperitif by the harbour, dinner that stretches late into night. Quieter than some of its Cycladic neighbours yet full of energy, it offers just the right mix of calm and character.

Things to do

Paros lends itself to being outdoors. Clear waters invite days of swimming, sailing and watersports, while inland trails offer a quieter way to explore the island’s hills and villages on foot. Those drawn to culture will find time-worn churches, ancient sites and small museums woven into daily life. Whether your days are active or unhurried, Paros makes it easy to strike a relaxed rhythm.

Food and drink

Family-run tavernas line harbours and village squares, serving fresh seafood, local vegetables and classic Greek dishes made to be shared. Long lunches drift into evening over grilled fish, meze plates and chilled local wine, while something sweet – often honeyed and just fried – rounds things off nicely. It’s the kind of food that suits slow nights, salty skin and often comes with a second glass, poured without asking.

What Oliver loves

Paros strikes a rare balance: stylish evenings in Naoussa followed by calm mornings. Hidden coves line the coast, timeworn chapels slip naturally into your wanderings, and lunches are best when they run long. There’s enough breeze to take the edge off the heat, carrying you effortlessly from morning swim to that perfect Paros sunset.

Getting there and around

Flights

While a local airport recently opened in Paros, it isn’t very well connected yet. You’re better off flying to Athens, with an average flight time from London of under 4 hours. The onward flight to Paros then takes around 45 minutes. You can also arrive in Paros by ferry from the Piraeus port in Athens. The fastest option takes under 3 hours.

By bus

The cheapest way to get around the island is by bus, with fares ranging from €1.80 to €3. The main bus stops are located in Parikia and Naoussa, and from there, you can connect to some of the smaller villages like Pounta and Alyki. Services are fairly regular during the summer, but if visiting in the off-season, be sure to consult a timetable ahead of time – you don’t want to be stuck waiting for hours!

By foot

Many of the cobblestone streets are designed to be explored by foot, but make sure you wear supportive and breathable footwear. Temperatures typically drop after dark too, so if you’re wandering after sunset, pack a light layer to put on when needed.
