We had a brilliant stay at Kontaratos with George and Mariana as our lovely hosts. Our room was extremely tidy and cosy, and we had space on the terrace to read and relax in the afternoons before heading out for the evenings. The apartments are located in a quiet area just a 5 minute walk from the beach and plenty of great restaurants. We’ll hopefully be able to stay again on our next visit to Paros and would highly recommend!
George was very nice, and the room was clean and as advertised. It’s a cost-affordable option where you rent a studio instead of a hotel. He arranged transportation to and from the airport, and his wife made me some cheesecake one day that was excellent.

We stayed at Kontaratos for 1 week, the house was clean and welcoming. The location is perfect, really close to the city center and to the beach.
Giorgos was extremely nice and helpful and made us feeling home from the beginning. We loved our stay at Kontaratos!
We had a great stay at Kontarotos. The location is perfect just about 500m to the beach and bars. We selected the third floor room which was a great choice. The private terrace gave us many hours relaxing with drinks or breakfast. George is always around checking if any help is needed and sharing stories. He gave advice on places to visit and arranged taxis. When we return to Paros we will be booking that third floor again. Thanks Geaorge for your help. Ian and Bryony

Cozy Home in Paradise
This was an amazing accommodation in a beautiful and quiet part of town. The beach is walkable and there are many food options around. George is so friendly and treats you like family. He even gave me a gift as I was leaving! I would recommend a stay here.
Our stay at Kontaratos Studio & apartments on the beautiful island of Paros was absolutely lovely. The installations were clean, confortable and very well kept. George and Marianna, were more than great hosts and welcomed us with attention and hospitality.
We love Paros

Great place to stay and be close from the airport. The apartment is so big including a kitchen and a big balcony. The guy’s service, who attended us was impeccable. Happened to be a taxi’s strike the night before our flight and the guy came and gave us a ride early in the morning. Great apartment and service!

This is a family owned property and you can tell. The owner, George takes great pride in his building and goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable and welcome. He was there to meet me on arrival , checked to see if I needed anything when I’d meet him during the day and made it his business to be there to say goodbye when I was leaving- even gave me a fridge magnet as a souvenir of my time in Paros. I had a lower level room with a shared balcony. The room was basic, very very clean, very quiet and overall perfect place to lay your head after a day exploring the island. I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. This is an old school experience with the 5 star treatment.
Do yourself a favour, go stay at this spot- you will not be disappointed!!!
George is very nice and was very helpful. There is only one key per room and we had a large party of 12, but he was always willing to let us in. If you are a younger group and want to go to the clubs I recommend staying in Naousa where they are. George clearly values his house and his guests. If you book here, just know that you will see him a lot.

Rooms were incredibly spacious and clean, and George was an excellent host! The location is a bit out of the way from the rest of Parikia, especially if you'll be getting around on foot, but fortunately the surrounding area is fairly quiet and peaceful.

Giorgos is a legend. He was very welcoming, attentive and lovely to chat with. The property is close to the town, beach and lots of amazing food spots. Would recommend to anyone!
It's like renting a room with a butler. George will bend backwards to make your stay memorable. It is unlike any experience we had.

Great stay- will be back!
George was warm and welcoming from the first call! He easily provided us with walking instructions to the room from the port since we only had a couple carryons and backpacks. It’s located in a charming area along the port with several beaches and tavernas just a short step away. We stayed in the basement room since this was just a short stay prior to leaving, and admittedly I was worried when I initially booked the room. However, I would recommend it highly for anyone traveling that is looking for a budget friendly option. The room was spotless and had two beds to make a queen, the air conditioner worked lighting fast every evening when we got back to the room. The bathroom shower had great water pressure, which can be a challenge for anyone with super long thick hair. No worries here at all. We had a mini fridge and best of all, a washing machine in our unit. This was so valuable after our long weeks of traveling! There is a designated outdoor patio that you have plenty of room to enjoy outside or hang your clothes to dry.
George assured us many times he was just a call away if we needed anything at all, but it was such a nice and easy stay that we didn’t have to call on him at all.
Lastly- we rented a quad and there was plenty of room at night to park around d the building, which was helpful.
We would definitely come back and stay longer on our next trip!

Le propriétaire est vraiment super gentil et humain ! L’hôtel est en retrait c’est tranquille mais en même temps tout prêt à distance de marche du centre des activités de la ville, plages et autres!
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Kontaratos Studios & Apartments. The location was quite convenient as it was a short walk from both the beach and the main town, Parikia. The room was extremely clean (and cleaned once per day) and the amenities suited all of my needs. In addition, the apartment I stayed in was very secured and the surrounding environment was quiet. The host, George, was also very pleasant and accommodating. I will definitely add this apartment complex to my favorites list and if I ever return to the Island of Paros I will surely reach out to George in an attempt to secure accommodation at this location.
Nice, clean,and well located rooms, with kitchenette, washing machine and A/C. Very helpful and kind owner, who picked us up at the port and was always available to answer our questions and give suggestions.warmly recommend.Thank you so much Georgis, xx
