Our one week stay at Vangelis and Maria's bills exceeded our expectations- the villa is even more beautiful than the photos suggest. Set in an elevated position that offers great views over Alyki the villa is an oasis of peace and tranquillity. Vangelis and Maria live on site but apart from ensuring the villas pool is kept spotlessly clean each day they left us to enjoy the villa and its peaceful surroundings. We arrived as guests and left as friends as we chose to enjoy a daily chat about our holiday and gained some helpful tips on the best beaches and restaurants in the area. We were lucky to have a meal prepared for us and the reviews are true- Maria's cheese pie is delicious. We were spoilt by our hosts, the weather and the location- we are frequent travellers who both agree our time at the villa in Paros has been one of our 'top' holidays. You definitely need a car to get out and about from the villa and there are lots of car hire companies near the port in Paros. Paros itself is a beautiful island with crystal clear seas, friendly locals and a peaceful atmosphere- we are already looking at how soon can we return.
