If you are looking for ultimate tranquility in one of the most beautiful cyclades home you have set your eyes upon, look no further.
From the beginning of us sending inquiries to our host before booking, we were met with quick responses, an array of detailed information, and outstanding hospitality overall.
After spending a few days on Mykonos, we arrived to this quiet part of Paros to find our picturesque blue and white home, complete with two terraces that look out to the Aegean Sea. We were met by our host and her father, complete with a basket of goodies when we came inside, including jams, spices, delicious cake, and olives. Throughout our stay, we were given access to a limitless supply of eggs, as well as some peppers, pomegranate, and other fruits from the property.
The home itself is completely equipped with all of the modern comforts. The Wifi is top-notch. The speed and stability is most likely unmatched anywhere on the island. Digital nomads, look no further. The espresso machine was a godsend every morning during our working time and the panini press was very useful. The shower has great pressure and a good supply of hot water for those cooler, windy days.
As mentioned, the location is serene, yet still completely accessible. The centre of Aliki is within a ten minute walk and there's a bus station a hundred metres from the home that will take you to most places on the island (through Parikia). In Aliki, you'll find several small restaurants, a grocery store, and some rental agencies for vehicles, boats, and tours. Remember to grab cash at the ATM in Parikia, as there isn't one in this town as of yet.
What more can we say other than that our experience was a dream come true. Partly thanks to the beauty of this place, but also due to the warmth, generosity, and true hospitality of our hosts.
You won't regret choosing Danae's House on the beautiful island of Paros.
