Absolutely great experience at the hotel. Clean and spacious rooms, and the staff were friendly and extremely accomodating. Truly they made our stay much more comfortable. Located a bit far from towns, which made it a more relaxing experience. Would stay here again (for a longer time!).

Everyone was extremely pleasant, except the woman checking us in upon our arrival. It is unfortunate, as it did leave a sour taste with us. They also give you paper tickets to get pool or beach towels that you are suppose to remember to keep with you, which is a very silly and inefficient process. They have a complimentary shuttle that runs into town but only at very limited times, with the last one returning at 9:30 pm which it too early if you want to have dinner and enjoy any shopping or night life in Parikia. We were the only guests using the shuttle -- you could take it in at 3:00 or 3:30 - I can't remember and that sounds nice if you want to do shopping and see the town. Unfortunately, we found out most shops do not open until 6:00 pm (and they don't tell you this even if you tell them you know nothing about the area - however, this was the unpleasant woman checking us in so one may have better luck with another member of their team) and then the shuttle return is at 9:30. We asked if they could pick us up at 9:45 instead of 9:30 and they said no they didn't think they could do that - but then didn't show up until 9:45. It was a clean and very comfortable hotel but it is in the middle of nowhere and in order to get people to be repeat customers - being accommodating should be their first priority.

Nowhere near 5 stars
It surely isn’t a 5 stars hotel. The food is not nice, the staff is unhelpful and it properly feels like a scam. It’s nit even a 4 stars, it should be 3.. prices are ridiculous for the place!

Comfortable escape with great food, pool, staff and rooms.
This is an escape from reality. Prepare to unwind, relax and not lift a finger. This small footprint resort creates a sense of community with the pool and restaurant while preserving quite and privacy with the situation of the rooms. Rooms are comfortable with a Greek simplicity - bright, spacious and flowing.

Great views but no way close to a 5 star hotel.
The view was great and that's where it stops. We booked the Studio Lea mainly for the view and sunsets. The room was small, outdated, dirty, bug infested, uncomfortable. The shower was a joke. I could live with the small size of it and the door that never fully closed, but the extreme lack of water preasure and sputtering water made showering not only unpleasant but exhausting. The studio we were in and the two "suites" shared a pool. That's up to 18 people that could use a semi private pool, yet there were only 3 very old and cheap pool chairs. The pool itself was extremely salty and needed to be drained/refilled years ago. There is also no way to prevent other guests from using this pool either. The studio had a "wrap a round" patio advertised but the patio had no privacy. Any guest could [and some did] walk onto it and look into your room where the large window was. So much for privacy. The only way to get to the resort is by using a very poor dirt road with large sharp rocks and deep potholes. Even the road to the Studio and suites was very poor. The hotel said they would not be responsible if a guest punctured a tire which is a strong probability. Finally, there was no one manning the desk at our checkout. We had limited time to leave for the airport and we could not wait any longer after 20 minutes. We had to leave a note and the keys and leave. Overall the maintenance at the resort was severely lacking. Inoperative lights along dark stairs made it dangerous.

Response from The Hotel Manager on 21 Jul 2018
Dear Mr. Anonymous, thank you for the time you spent to write your review. We apologize not addressing your name, though your identity is known, as we respect your desire for anonymity. The hotel provides 24-hour front desk to its guests. None of our guests so far, having such an early check-out time at 6:30 in the morning, had left the hotel without informing us in advance to check their extra charges and provide them with early breakfast. Obviously, when you passed over the reception, the night shift receptionist was missing her seat for a while due to an emergency, but always having the wireless phone in operation. You could just notify her by making a common call from your room to the reception. The Studio of 45 sqm accommodates up to 2 adults. It consists of one bedroom with blackout drapes to provide darkness and privacy whenever wanted and one glass room as living-dining area, with large verandas around facing the Aegean Sea. It shares an individual pool with two other villas with maximum accommodation capacity of all up to 8 adults and 4 children. The sunbeds provided at this private pool area are considered as additional pieces to those that are provided in each villa’s/studio’s veranda. Moreover, the furniture cannot be updated, since the hotel operates from 2008 with partial refurbishments since then. All photographs provided on sites before booking are actual, showing the private pool, the sea view from the dining area, the bathroom etc. So far, the hotel has the best public feedback from our guests regarding the helpfulness and kindness of our staff, the cleanliness, the semi salted pool water and the breathtaking views that are provided. We always want to have satisfied clients and we honestly do our best to become better.

Breathtaking view of the ocean and Antiparos
This is a remote location south of the Parikia, facing the Antiparos island. We have stayed for 3 nights in a junior suit, enjoying an amazing view and tranquility of the blue sea and the Antiparos island. The room was very clean, minimal and had 4 verandas facing the sea. The staff is extremely kind and professional. The breakfast is fine, and the restaurant is very good. Having an 18 months baby with us, their service and help for his eating habits and sensitivities was very beneficial, You need a car to go to Parikia or other places with things to do, but they offer rides 3 times per day. Each time we left the hotel, we were longing to return and enjoy the view from our verandas. So perfect place for couples and families.

Very nice relaxing hotel but far from the towns and activities in Paros. Although, there’s a transfer available 3 times/day to go to Parikia where you can take the bus to Naoussa. The hotel absolutely worth it if you are looking for a place to relax and stay or if you rent a car.

Excellent hotel, very relaxing with good service
We had a perfect trip to Paros, with one week at Archipelagos. Our room (Studio Kea) had a stunning view over the sea, with a smaller pool shared with 2-3 other studios away from the main pool. The bed was comfortable and the room was immaculate, we found the staff were very friendly and service was great. The restaurant at the hotel was also very good, breakfast was included and it was nice being able to stay at the hotel for a good evening meal (the seafood was always very good!) The purpose of the trip was to relax with a small amount of sightseeing, and Paros was the perfect place to do this. We particularly enjoyed seeing Lefkes and Naoussa, between trips to the many clean beaches (some sandy, some shingley). Renting a quad bike was a great way to get around, and thé reception were very helpful in organising this. Only one suggestion for future visitors would be to prearrange a transfer from the ferry port (and probably airport also) to the hotel on arrival. We arrived and it took a while to find a taxi (taxis are not that numerous, which is why the quad bike was a good idea!) Very happy with the hotel and had the perfect stay, it has made us want to see a lot more of Greece and the Cyclades!

Nice hotel close to the beach far from downtown
I enjoyed the hotel and amenities,staff is polite and restaurant was fine and prices were reasonable. But the side road to enter the hotel was long and hard,if you pick this hotel you will definitely a car to move around or you will feel isolated. The hotel has a tennis and basketball court, jacuzzi and Gym. I loved my stay.

Quiet, incredible view
Located down gravel road 5 minutes from Parikia. On a bluff overlooking the water and tip of Antiparos. A collection of more modern buildings and original private home now converted to oceanfront villas. We stayed in a villa and essentially had the whole area to ourselves. Very quiet, simply amazing views and sunsets. Staff all very nice, engaging, and helpful. Buffet breakfast offered lots of options. Outdoor dining at Armyra, the onsite restaurant, was a great choice. Grilled fish very tasty and nice salads. Bathroom shower a bit small, otherwise room was wonderful with glassed in dining area overlooking the water. Short walk to a local beach that was quiet, but small.

LOVELY PLACE, STAFF- I HATE TO CRITICIZE, BUT.....
GOOD NEWS: wonderful, helpful staff!! ALSO GOOD: excellent restaurant food, very reasonably priced (best food in Paros - we had dinner at three other restaurants that were supposed to be excellent, but they did not compare) BAD NEWS: guests at a 5-star hotel deserve to walk into their unit and find everything working - including A/C remote (ours had to be replaced), cold and hot water (2 of 4 nights without hot water!!), sink should hold water; swimming pool should be warm enough for swimming (why don't they use solar heating?). Although staff are very pleasant, they should use check-lists to ensure everything is working BEFORE guests attend - and we were there before things really got busy. so they had the time to do things properly

The private villa is amazing!
We stayed here two times in a week. Once in s single room the 2nd time in a private Villa with a pool it was amazing! Definitely worth the extra $100 to get the villa it was huge! The hotel seems short staffed and the Internet and mattresses are terrible. The facility itself (villa and pool area) are gorgeous and they have a great breakfast! The staff is all very sweet! Finding the hotel was not easy and you need a car if you want to go anywhere off the property

Great everything, But not very close to the beach.
This is a great hotel. We had good time there. But for lazy travelers, here is a warning! You have to walk to the beach. Literally. If you are not into hiking, this is an adventure. The nearest beach around 800 ft (250 m), by sandy, uneven, not picturesque road. The hotel located far from everything. The best bet to rent a car, quad. However this applies only if you are lame as us. BTW the service is GREAT! The food is fantastic. We had very nice secluded terrace with the sea view. Just one thing - it is not NEAR the beach, in my opinion.

The rooms are very spacious and clean. We had a seaview room where we experienced amazing sunsets (do watch out for mosquitoes though!). The hotel breakfast was also very good. We had dinner at the hotel restaurant one night and it was really delicious too (I normally do not enjoy hotel dinners). The hotel is out of the way though, so it is best to have a car, and you do have to drive on a narrow unpaved road to get to it.

Amazing hotel on an amazing island
I can't say enough good things about this hotel. We randomly got the best room in the hotel - it had a 240 degree view of the Agean sea. Beyond that it was perfect in every way. The pool was great, the staff was top notch. The complimentary breakfast was amazing, and the restaurant there was so good we ate there twice. We went with the kid, and she loved it and the staff, too. You need a rental car on this island, and the hotel is isolated but after a few days in Athens it was just what we needed. Nothing is too far away on the island anyways. We had trouble with our rental car and the hotel fixed it for us. They also gave us great recommendations. Go to Antiparos which is the next island for the day - an amazing experience as well. I'm into modern design and the quality furnishings were a pleasant surprise. I would happily go back again - I'd like to be there right now, actually...

Splendid stay
We booked the executive suite which had one of the most stunning views of any hotel I've stayed in. I recommend this hotel for the personalized service and for the view. If the sea room view is out of your budget you may consider other options, otherwise go for it! The beaches that are within walking distance are lovely and although I was there on a couples vacation the hotel also seems very kid friendly.

Wonderful hotel in a peaceful setting
Wonderful experience, staff friendly and extremely helpful nothing we asked was too much trouble. Hotel facilities superb, very comfortable and peaceful setting plus beautiful sea views and our room which was a superior was an extremely generous size. One thing we think you should add to your listed description of the resort is it's remoteness, with no bus service however to be fair the hotel offers a free service three times a day to the town but you do need to stay in the town all day or all evening, a car is really a must for a long stay. We feel this information would be extremely helpful for future guests, however overall our experience of the hotel and resort was superb and we would very much like to go back again.

Great hotel if you have a car
The hotel was excellent but the location was too far from the city. There is a shuttle service from the hotel to the Town at 10am, 5pm and 10pm but this is crazy as the town shuts down at 3pm untile 6.30pm. There should be a shuttle service every 2 hours. You can order a cab but that could cost up to 16-18 euro each way. There is a cost of 12 euro if you want to get picked up from the port but other hotels do not charge for this service. The hotel is one of the best I have stayed in Greece and cannot fault it. Would I return again? maybe not due to the remoteness of the hotel.

Too Isolated
While I love getting away from it all, this is a bit too remote. Dirt road leads up to the resort and you feel as if you are stranded there. Wouldn't be bad if they offered return shuttle service to Parikia, but only offer one way service two times a day. No complimentary internet, and lots of pool rules. The pool area is lovely and our room had a terrific view of Antiparos Island, but this did not make up for the isolation. Added cost to hire a car to see the island which we had not anticipated. If you want to do absolutely nothing except sit by the pool, then this resort is not bad, however if you plan to see some of the island then would recommend elsewhere.
