Very well located, only a 10 min walk into the city centre where you have shops, bars and restaurants and the bus stop. Also walking distance to a lovely beach. Maria and Simos were incredibly hospitable and gave us plenty of great recommendations. The room was clean and watching the sunset from the balcony was incredible.

The shower is quite small and there is no ledge to put your toiletries. It was inconvenient but wouldn’t stop me from staying there again!

EVERYTHING was outstanding. Alea is the most beautiful example of excellent hospitality from Simos and Mama María. I would rather stay in this beautiful, clean, fresh apartment than in any 5 star hotel in the world. Simos’ map of the island with all the recommendations was perfect for our 4 days and Mama María kept us fed, caffeinated and smiling every day. The breakfasts were stunning and clearly made with love and care using local ingredients that changed every day. It was great to be able to take an umbrella for the beach. Everyone should experience Naousa from Alea!

We have stayed in numerous hotels in many different places because of work, life, etc. We can honestly say that we have never been this treated this well anywhere, ever. We were not treated like another pair of guests passing through - we were treated like family. Upon arrival hours earlier than our check in time, Mama Maria took me by the arm and guided my wife and I to snacks and drinks. After turning down a gracious ferry port pickup that was offered over text, we finally got to meet Simos to go over what Paros had to offer. He was interested in what we wanted to see and do and had the best recommendations. He also offered to give a tour of the church in Parika (DO IT!). What ensued was an evening we will never forget, and goes to show what true open-hearted kindness looks like. The breakfast chats with Natasha (what a breakfast!). Maria making us laugh in passing every time with her tireless warmth. And Simos somehow finding the time in his crazy schedule to make sure not only we were taken care of, but every guest staying there as well. Its a true shock to the system to see how lovely and hospitable this family can be ( which also includes Simos’ father, Aristides!) Thank you so much for your time and energy. We miss you all and Alea very very much.

That we had to leave :-(

It is hard to put into words the genuine kindness and total hospitality we received at Alea! It is the kind of hospitability that you can't believe even exists. Everything was perfect; our room was so clean, cozy and we had a balcony with a spectacular view of the ocean. The shower was awesome. Simos and his mother Maria were some of the nicest people I have ever met. They ensured our entire time we were taken care of; whether that was by means of all kinds of recommendations, transportation or even just making us coffee while we chatted :) The breakfast baskets are to die for; we were truly so excited to see what local Paros treats awaited us each morning. I loved that you can have breakfast in your room or downstairs at their beautiful outside seats. The location is perfect; tucked away but still close to everything you would want to see while in Naousa. If you want to experience genuine Greek hospitality and feel as if you are staying with family members, stop looking and choose this beautiful place. Thank you so much Simos and Maria, we cannot wait to be back! Eyliena and Bryan

Everything was amazing. We really love to meet Maria and Simos, what amazing hosts. Thank you so much for the experience.

I love everything to be honest :)

Amazing Greek hospitality from both Simos and Maria. Clean and comfortable apartments with sea view. Short walk to beach and into main town of Naoussa.

No shower curtain so bathroom and toilet were quite wet after showering but did not discredit our stay.

When you travel, you are usually treated as a guest. But at Alea Apartmenst, you are treated like a beloved member of Maria's family. The accommodations are newly renovated and lovely, the breakfast is delicious and extremely generous, the location is super close to all you need - bus stop, beach, supermarket, town. You can find these amenities at other places. But the experience of interacting with a warm and caring host who makes you laugh, helps you experience the island in amazing ways and is always quick to help - now that is a rare find. We travel a lot. Alea Apartments rates at the top of our list! Don't miss it!!

We loved everything.

The definition of Greek HOSPITALITY! Simos & Maria looked after us like family. Clean and spacious rooms. Beach views. Perfect location, a walking stroll to Nausa, and with two beaches nearby (Little Piperi was just the best!). Exceptional breakfast, with local foods selected on a daily basis.

Nothing!
