We are delighted to welcome the resort to our portfolio and introduce guests to a relaxed beachfront experience in one of Greece’s most captivating island settings.”
Location
Located in Pounda, on the western coast of Paros, the resort is conveniently located 10 minutes drive from the ferry port and facing the Mediterranean sea, offering guests a natural base for exploring both islands, whether visiting Antiparos for its golden beaches and traditional Cycladic streets, or spending time in Parikia, the island’s picturesque capital and main harbor town.
Nearby attractions include the Pounda Kitesurf Club, a well-known destination for kiteboarding thanks to its strong wind conditions and shallow turquoise waters, as well as Panagia Ekatontapiliani in Parikia, one of Greece’s most important Byzantine monuments. Guests can also discover lesser-known sites such as Despotiko, an uninhabited island known for its ancient sanctuary of Apollo and pristine landscapes, the Sanctuary of Delion overlooking the Aegean, and the Archaeological Museum of Paros.
