Could not recommend this place more! We will definitely be going back. The staff was phenomenal, when we arrived we were greeted by a concierge who took our bags inside/to our rooms and made us a mimosa while we filled out our check in details. We did the half board so we got a buffet breakfast and dinner each night that had so many options and were very delicious! The front desk also made us a reservation for the el la carte dinner which was also free. The staff didn’t hesitate when we asked them to book us a taxi to check out city centre as well as booking an early taxi to get us to the port the morning we checked out, also supplying us with a box breakfast to go. Highly recommend this place! Absolutely loved every minute of our stay!

Paralos lifestyle beach was an amazing experience from the check in to check out. During check in we were offered champagne while we filled in our information. Evey employee greets you as you pass each other in a kind and friendly manner. There are two dinning facilities on the property, one which is included in your stay and another that is more personal and you pay for. Both were excellent! The resort has a private beach, 2 common area swimming pools and also has rooms with private pools. I will say that our room was a little small but that's fine for us. If you pack a ton of stuff you might feel cramped. There is an outside fitness area which if you prefer dumbbells and free weights you will like a lot better than the fitness room. This area also has a ping pong table and a dart board. The resort also has a spa on premises. Katia from the spa was amazing. Not only did she handle clients upon entering but she answered other questions we had about the area. With it being so dry we booked a couple's package with hydration wrap and you can feel the difference! While we were checking out and waiting for the transport that the resort set up for us, they provided us a breakfast care package since we had to leave before breakfast was available! The staff is ama

Very nice adults only hotel! Particularly liked the beach pool continuation and the extremely friendly staff! Would benefit from an update in certain areas like bathroom fittings and plumbing, new towels as the ones provided were visibly very old, as well as more coffee options included as standard with breakfast. it’s the first hotel i have been that the only offer filter coffee and tea for breakfast-not even decaf! Any other option have to be paid which is very weird in Greece in 2024!
