Loved our stay here! Would definitely go back. The staff are so lovely and helpful they work so hard. Spa was great too. The area is super chilled and great food and friendly hospitality. Only thing would say is the Wi-Fi isn’t perfect but think that’s Greece in general.

It is one of the most beautiful places we've had the great fortune to experience, and it is so beautiful that we didn't leave the resort during our entire 3-day stay. From start to finish, every detail was considered, and every need was taken care of. The team is welcoming and kind, and the location is absolutely stunning. While visiting with my partner (our kids left at home), we were keenly aware of how family-friendly the resort is, a pro for the many happy groups around us. If you plan to visit in May as we did, know the water will be fresh (!), and private pools might be too chilly to truly enjoy - though they'll still offer the perfect backdrop for some of the best photos you may ever take! We highly recommend Daios Cove.

Georgia Piteidiou Helped me making my trip as a great memory. Georgia, helped with decorating our room with roses and arranged a romantic dinner by beach as per our request. George, Anna & Nonas hospitality at Al carte ( Ammonia) was mind blowing. They were very welcoming and the food and service was excellent. We really recommend it everyone to choose Paralos Lifestyle as their destination to make the vocation great. Thanks to the whole Paralos team.

Fantastic location by the beach . Lovely spot for a relaxing holiday . We were the only English In the hotel but had a wonderful time chatting to folk from all around Europe . We accessed many trips such as snorkelling, scuba diving and sailing . The staff were very friendly and the food was excellent . The bar was open till midnight with a great range of drinks on the all inc package . The pool areas were super with very comfortable sun beds but we preferred the beach which also had these . We will be back .

Istron Beach Holiday

Salty sea air and spectacular ocean vistas are some things you can look forward to on your Istron holiday. If you want to save on your trip to Istron, here's a tip — go with one of our Istron holiday packages. Grab one near Voulisma Beach, just 0.2 miles from the city centre and a must-see while here. Alternatively, pick a package that puts you closer to Istro Beach, another gorgeous strip of coast. Whichever you choose, you'll be left with extra dollars in your holiday budget to spend.

Things You Should Know About Istron

  • There's nothing more relaxing than being close to the water. If staying within a short walk of a sunny shore is your idea of a glorious escape, browse through our Istron beach hotels and see what's available.
  • Another popular lodging style is apartments. Check out Villa Angela and Kavousanos Apartments and compare the prices and amenities.
