My Husband and I spent a large part of our honeymoon, eight days out of twelve, at the Studios Narkissos in Aliki on the island of Paros in the Cyclades of Greece. We had chosen it because of the price (20 euros a day), the fact that it is one of the few Greek accomodations with a double bed (it was our honeymoon afterall) and because it looked clean from the pictures. The owner, Anastasia and her son, picked us up from the ferry the day we arrived.
Once we got to our room we were blown away! The studio was more like a suite, with it's own large kitchen area, sweeping balcony, sitting area and fairly large bathroom (for Greece).
The views alone took our breath away. We could see all of the town of Aliki below us and the Aegean, sweeping all the way past the little neighboring island of Anti Paros.
Anastasia and her family doted on us from the moment we arrived. They would periodically show up at our door with gifts of juice, cold coffee, figs and cucumbers from their own garden.
The studios are located close to the town and the beach. The family is also a good source of information about different points of interest in the area.
We only had two draw backs, however. The first was that it was a little too warm in the room during the evening, but we are from the Northern Hemisphere and anything above 70 degrees is too hot for our tolerance level and we didn't rent a car or moped to get us around the island, though there is a bus stop about fifteen feet from the studios that severed our needs.
We booked our stay at aegeanstyle.com which has pictures and local attractions in Paros and, especially Aliki.
