The best hotels in Paros are no longer a secret reserved only for those in-the-know. While Santorini and Mykonos may hog the Greek Island limelight over on Instagram, a number of luxury Paros hotel openings have put the lesser-known settlement on the international map, proving there's so much to be gained from going off-piste during (what remains of) your European summer.
Situated in the Cyclades, next to other upcoming hotspot Naxos, Paros retains an authentic charm – despite no longer being the secret holiday destination of Greeks and Greeks only. With its bluer-than-blue water, beautiful coves and friendly locals, this rugged hilly and volcanic island is dotted with whitewashed buildings and framed with some of Greece’s best beaches. And it's warm right the way through to October.
As previously alluded to, there's quite a plethora of hotel options worth shouting about, whether you want all-out-luxury, a small boutique hotel or something more laidback. The towns of Parikia or Naoussa are great bases if you want buzz, walkability and a great array of dining and shopping options, while beachside locations and fishing villages like Aliki, Drios or Lefkés offer something more tranquil. Just remember: you might need to hire a car. Here's everything you need to know.
