This is a most beautiful, charming property run by the incomparable Despina. The rooms were new, clean, bright and had everything you needed, including a small fridge and nespresso machine. We had the double time with balcony, which was a wonderful place for a morning coffee. The walk to the tourist area of town was through a charming alleyway and walk along the shoreline. There was ample parking nearby. If you are looking for a beautiful, wonderfully run property run by a local, this is your place. It has a beautiful courtyard filled with the most wonderful flowering plants, including the most fragrant jasmine right outside our door. I would return here in a heartbeat.

Wonderful gem in the heart of Naoussa

We had a wonderful stay at Despina’s Mare. Despina was so welcoming. It was a 5 minute walk down the hill into Naoussa, such a fantastic location. There was a lovely beach about 10 mins walk away. You do have to pay for sunbeds. We couldn’t fault our stay, the room was modern and clean and would definitely recommend.

Despina is an amazing host. So friendly and so genuine. The room was very clean and beautifully kept. Despina was kind enough to leave sweet and salty snacks in our room every day. The spinach and cheese pie was homemade and delicious. She even gave us a gift when we left. Fresh herbs for tea and loukumi sweets. Best place to stay in Paros.

Beautiful room with sunset & ocean view

We were so impressed with our stay at Despina’s! Despina was kind enough to let us check in early when our ferry arrived. Our room had a good size patio with an amazing ocean and sunset view! The shower and water pressure was the best we have had on our trip. The bed was very comfortable. Despina personally made recommendations of places to visit on the island. The daily housekeeping was greatly appreciated. And they were kind enough to even do some laundry for us. The staff were very kind. The room is centrally located and made it easy to walk everywhere. There was also convenient parking right in front of the hotel. We appreciated having an A/C unit at night. We would love to stay here again in the future.
The patio door and window have nice screens so you can leave them open for fresh air.

Enjoyed our stay at Despina’s Mare. The location was fabulous, close to downtown Naoussa and the beach. The room was clean and functional. Our only note is that the AC did not work very well so we had some trouble sleeping (keeping in mind it was quite hot outside while we were there). All in all, a nice stay but something to be mindful of for temperature sensitive individuals :)
