Paros

Parilio

White-washed walls punctuated by terrocata tiles and azure waters

Stunning, striking stream-lined design by the sea

Defined by striking yet traditional Cycladic architecture, and showcasing contemporary Greek design pieces which blend with artistic features from leading European designers, Parilio is a hotel of the utmost style and sophistication. Enjoying a wonderful location close to the beach, the hotel puts guests on the doorstep of what is recognised as ‘quintessentially Paros’, with the likes of secluded, pine-fringed coves and charming white-washed fishing villages within easy reach.

Themed by a soothing colour palette, natural materials and pieces of local art, as well as enjoying plenty of space, light and authentic character, the hotel’s 33 suites provide wonderful spaces in which to relax and feel at home during an escape to Paros. The suites differ in their offerings, with some enjoying wonderful features such as separate living areas and even private plunge pools or private swimming pools.

There are countless avenues for relaxation and rejuvenation during a stay at Parilio, and not solely through its proximity to the beach and the blissful natural surroundings of the island. The inviting and sleek sunloungers surround a delightful pool, where you can enjoy a refreshing afternoon soak or perhaps a cocktail from the poolside bar, while a magnificent Asian-styled spa offers a range of soothing treatments. Dining is also a rewarding experience here, with the hotel’s restaurant, Mr E, serving up seasonal Greek and Mediterranean fare in a light-filled space with huge arched windows.

Places to combine Parilio with

Paros

Rooster, Antiparos
Antiparos is a jewel in the Adriatic sea, just a short ferry trip from the main island of Paros. Here, on this tranquil island, rich in natural beauty you’ll find The Rooster. Set in 30 acres of rolling hills and giving way to soft sand dunes and eventually twinkling crystal clear sea waters. This exclusive beachfront property is made up of 16 private houses, with a design, architecture and decor that’s respectful to the island. Each of the private guest houses are individually designed to offer privacy without distracting from the connection to the views and natural landscapes. The furniture and decor is in keeping with the island’s own heritage. For example, walls are painted with neutral tones or whitewash and there’s comfortable low slung wooden chairs with soft furnishings made from traditional textiles. Each house is complete with a bedroom, living area, bathroom (with outdoor shower) and a luxurious private pool with secluded lounging areas shaded by greek gardens or cabana style, wooden canopies. Aside from the private houses guests can also choose to stay in the Farmhouse, around 1.5km away from The Rooster the private Farmhouse is surrounded by kitchen gardens, calming outdoor social areas and it has its own private pool. The house has its own kitchen where your meals will be prepared or where you can dive in yourself to enjoy the fresh produce from the nearby farm – a great option for families.  The Rooster is a lifestyle and wellness retreat that allows guests to connect with themselves and nature. The House of Healing is an intrinsic part of daily life at The Rooster where a journey of mind and spirit centeredness can be achieved through personalised therapies such as Rooster Rituals, Ayurveda treatments, facials, massages and yoga. There’s also a gym for those who want to compliment their beach walks and sea swimming with extra activity. Close to the main hotel is The Farm, another venue to be explored. At The Farm guests are invited to experience a traditional ‘bostani’ (kitchen garden), vegetable fields, open kitchen cooking, private dining and the chance to learn about local, seasonal ingredients. The hotel itself offers its own indoor restaurant with huge windows and doors that open out to the gardens and with sea views. There’s an atmospheric bar with loungers for total relaxation as you sip your drinks, a secret garden and courtyard and the cuddle puddle. The cuddle puddle is a wooden tipi that sits within the dunes to capture the island’s signature, glowing sunsets.

An intimate hotel, with just 12 stylish suites that all offer privacy and a feeling of exclusivity and calm. Keeping with the decor theme of the main property the room has a contemporary and classic feel with muted tones and sumptuous soft furnishings adding to the level of comfort. All the rooms are well appointed and aim to service the needs of modern travellers, in terms of the amenities. Most of the larger rooms come with private outdoor hot tubs or pools, offering an additional layer of refuge to this resplendent haven. The hotel’s pool is impressively large, made with a spectacular green artisan tile work, ensconced within protective walls and surrounded by inviting sun loungers and to one side is the statement sunken pool bar. Mr. E Restaurant serves delicious Greek dishes, often reimagined but always instilling a splendid simplicity that suits the fresh, local ingredients. They serve an abundance of local seafood – best savoured with a glass of sublime Santorinian wine. The energy and dedication to wellness and tranquillity is summed up perfectly at the serene Elios Spa. Here guests can enjoy a range of treatments, pampering and a soak in the relaxing jacuzzi.
