Milos House (named after its neighbouring windmill) sits proudly on top of a hill just outside of the picturesque fishing village of Alyki on the south coast of Paros. It’s a real home from home, with views that will take your breath away and stay in your heart forever. The sunsets are some of the best you’ll see on the island. You can see many surrounding islands and 360º views of Paros and Antiparos.
Access to the house is through a tiny hamlet and the final ascent is pretty steep. Hiring a car is advisable to take advantage of the beautiful surroundings, although there are buses and you can walk to the nearest beach in 15 minutes. It is a 15 minute drive from the main port and 7 minutes from the airport. The local village has plenty of excellent traditional tavernas, well stocked super market, an ATM, ice cream parlour, bars and a great bakery.
The house is very spacious, flooded with natural sunlight and set in a beautiful west facing garden which has eating and sitting areas to take advantage of the views and sunsets. There are wonderful terraces both upstairs (some covered) and downstairs with access via the kitchen, and an additional sitting and morning coffee areas with views inland over Kamari village and the south coast.
Milos House sleeps 6 and comprises 3 bedrooms: one with king bed, one with a large double and a third with two single beds, one of which is on the ground floor. There are two bathrooms, both with baths and showers and again one on each floor. All rooms have ample cupboard storage facilities. All rooms have overhead fans, and with our hilltop location, the breezes usually keep the temperatures cool inside.
The downstairs living space is open plan, with a lovely open fire and the sunny kitchen invites you to cook and eat, either inside or out with two big tables which can sit between 6-8 people.
The house has an electric cooker, washing machine, dishwasher and drying area. There are plenty of towels, including those for the beach. There is a TV and BluRay player, Sonos system and very good wifi connectivity. With no neighbours nearby, it’s private and secluded and the perfect retreat space to reflect, read and just be.
The house is ideal for families or groups, or couples wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of the towns, though still within easy reach of many stunning beaches and other attractions.
Having lived on the island for over 20 years we are well placed to advise you on what to do and see. The house will be cleaned prior to your stay and with agreement can be serviced during your stay.
