Paros Afrodite Luxury Villas ,2 private pools , spa ,ocean views max 17 persons

The owner/host was very friendly. He met us at a nearby hotel and took us to the property which stood high on a hill near the village of Aliki in Paros. The pool and the grounds were spectacular with quite the view, but the main house was small and dark. After looking back at the listing on VRBO, I realize that there are no photos of the interior of the main house, only photos of the two separate smaller apartments, one of which we also rented, that are much newer. We spent most of the time outside so the dark house didn't matter much. The beach was a steep walk down the hill but doable, as were restaurants and local shops. We drove most of the time with our elderly mother as there are several free parking lots. At the house, the towels and sheets were professionally cleaned. The wifi, however,​ worked great out by the pool but not at all when inside either of the dwellings.

Thank you Arsenis for a fabulous stay! We originally rented the smaller unit with the dipping pool, but had two friends surprise us on our trip and Arsenis was able to put us in the larger unit with the big pool! The unit was perfect for the 4 of us! Breakfast and dinner outside on the patio every day, enjoying the sunsets at night. Easily walkable to beaches, but preferred having a car. I would definitely stay there again! Gorgeous island!

The view is spectacular and the buildings were great. Arsenis responded to questions quickly and helped out with car trouble and other advice. You do need a vehicle if you are staying there, and set a plan for your arrival before you land (no wifi at the Paros airport). Meeting at the Galatis Hotel just down the hill from the house would be smart.

wonderful location, great host, fine house but under equipped kitchen though. Also, I think there is a total of 4 kitchen(ette)s. The consequence is that (inside) there is no real area to seat or cook for a big group. In all, I would recommend it taking the above into consideration.

We were a group of nine friends that rented two small villas each having three bedrooms. There was a mixup between what we thought we had rented and what the owner said we rented but our gracious host, Arsenis, made it right and we had a great time. The next time I rent a villa I will contact the owner before renting to confirm the number of bedrooms that we are renting. The first of the two villas is of newer construction with a small plunge pool and is devided into two units each with a fully equipped kitchen and beautifully decorated. I rate this villa 5 star and would highly recommend renting it. The second villa was quite a bit older and was also fully equipped but the bathrooms and kitchen could use some updating. They were adequate but it was hard not to get the one bathroom wet when showering. This villa had a large outdoor pool and beautiful well equipped terrace (lots of seating) and outstanding views. This villa I rate a 4 star but could easily be five star with a few updates. Renting both villas was perfect for our group and I would recommend it for a family as well as a group of friends. We loved the location which was walking distance to two beaches, shopping, and restaurants. We had a wonderful time exploring Alyki as well as the island. Our host Arsenis gave us excellent guidance on restaurants and things to do. Many thanks to Arsenis for helping to make our visit memorable.

The villa is in Aliki village in Paros with fantastic views and a great hospitality. Just a few minutes from the beaches and the little port. The pool is great and the view amazing, the staff was always there for all of our questions.

We choose this villa for our friends weeding and we didn't regreated. The villa is amazing and the view stanning , the owner is very welcomed and the cleanning wonderful. We will go there again . Thanks Arsenis

We had a wonderful time. Views and service will not dissapoiny. Arsenis is s lovely host. He checked in on us. Helped with having cars delivered and great Dining recommendations. We had high expectations and they were exceeded! Pictures very accurate-perfect for some quiet downtime! Thanks Arsenis

We had a perfect week here before the summer season began. The Villa is a traditional Cycladic style home, with a 100 year old grape vine (saved during the renovation) draped through the overhead trellis over the outdoor seating area. The view is spectacular as the Villa sits on the highest hill on a peninsula with at least 180 degree views of the sea and nearby islands. The town, Aliki, was sleepy when we were here, and perfect because the locals were still able to enjoy the town before the tourists arrive. The other towns on Paros are nice, but we enjoyed Aliki best and we're glad we stayed here. There are beach paths for miles and dirt roads that wander by beautiful homes. Best of all, perhaps, is the host, Arsenis, who has family ties in the area, and was available anytime for assistance or restaurant recommendations. We loved our stay, and hope to return one day!

This is less of a review and more of a thank you note to Arsenis for opening this villa up to our family and giving us a fabulous, quiet, beautiful vacation. The villa is perched above a tiny fishing village called Aliki. You can drive or walk from the villa to several beautiful beaches in Aliki. Or, just relax under an olive tree by the pool overlooking the Aegean. While lounging at the villa don't be surprised when flocks of white doves fly past against a perfect blue sky. You'll be encouraged to pick delicious bunches of fresh grapes that grow on the pergola above the front door. It's that idyllic. The town is very authentic and charming, with plenty of restaurants and bakeries. The famous spa beach and golden beach are a short drive away. We arrived by ferry and rented a car. Aliki is probably 20 minutes drive from the port. We wish we stayed longer, and would definitely go back.
