Fodor's Expert Review Astir of Paros

Peaceful views of Kolymbithres Bay are part of the experience at this graceful deluxe resort hotel, where green lawns, tall palm trees, subtropical gardens, and a private beach contribute to its superlative reputation. Guest rooms are elegant and spacious, with a vibrant mix of contemporary style and luxurious appointments. Gourmet dining is catered for at the Aeolos Asian restaurant, offering Sushi and Chinese delicacies, and the Poseidon, a lauded modern Greek taverna overlooking the deep blue Aegean. As you stroll through the vast gardens—note the historic Chapel of St. Nicholas, with Byzantine-era murals, carefully rebuilt on 12th-century foundations—the bustle of Paros is very far away indeed.
