This charming Cycladic villa overlooking the Aegean Sea is a real gem. With blue views across the Aegean Sea, you'll need to pinch yourself each time you step outside – though, with many picture-frame windows, you’ll have panoramic vistas on hand from inside, too. The crisp and minimalist interiors evoke a sense of calm and achieve that balance of being understated and inviting. Though we hope work isn’t on the agenda, there’s a slick desk with a sea view here – a pretty good perk when replying to emails. Glass doors open out to a sprawling terrace where a pool offers a refreshing respite when the Paros sun is at its midday peak. Share sun-soaked breakfasts of fresh fruit and local cheese at the outdoor dining table before finding a shady and secluded spot to turn the pages of your new book. Leisurely afternoons are best spent stretched out on the stone terrace, soaking up the sun. Come evening, gather around the outdoor dining area for a delicious dinner prepared with local ingredients. As evening rolls around, sip a crisp glass of Savatiano from the terrace and watch the sun fall beneath the horizon. If you can pull yourself away, post up on the sculpted rocks of Damuli Beach, a few steps away. The stunning fishing village, Naousa, is worth the short drive – we suggest you peruse the picturesque boutiques and visit the ancient Venetian castle.
