Vera's place is both beautiful and spacious and served our family of four very well. Stylish and minimalist on the one hand, but Vera had every and any amenity we needed for our 10 day stay.
Our two younger boys loved having their own bedrooms, waking up in the morning and watching Netflix while mommy and daddy were still sleeping, and then playing outside with the basketball hoop and bocce / lawn bowling area that is outside the property. They also loved picking organic apricots from Vera's trees which were in abundance!
Vera's home is spotless and was better than any hotel stay we've had in Paros in the past... crisp white linens, high end natural soaps and shampoos, and amazing rooms and spaces both inside and outside the property with many areas to sit and spend quality time as a family, read a book, catch up on email, etc.
Ambelas, the town where the property is, is approximately 15 mins away from the picturesque white washed town of Naousa which we preferred. Naousa gets over run in the summer and so having a way to escape to a quieter place was ideal for us as it gave us the best of both worlds. A car or ATV is recommended on the island to get around and is very safe with simple roads and not heavy on traffic. The property was a 10-15 min drive from 4 of our favorite beaches - Monstiraki, Golden Beach, Santa Maria, and Ambelas Beach. All are very shallow with crystal clear waters and perfect for kids to splash and play.
Vera was a gracious host and was always available to answer any questions or help out any way she could. Thank you for helping us create some family memories and look forward to returning next year!
