This summer, Parīlio, the first branded five-star hotel on the Cycladic island of Paros, will introduce new suites, private villas, a wellness space, and a reimagined culinary concept, Parōn.
Designed by the Athens-based Interior Design Laboratorium, the expansion integrates Cycladic minimalism and Mediterranean warmth to establish a timeless, modern aesthetic. Key elements include raw, natural materials—like sun-bleached wood, handwoven textiles, and stone—that nod to Paros’ rugged landscape.
New additions at Parīlio
The 13 new accommodations embody refined simplicity. The Signature Suites, Eclipse and Iris, are tailored for one- or two-bedroom living, offering private terraces, shared plunge pools, and expansive views of the island’s untamed scenery.
Meanwhile, the villas emphasize luxury and privacy. The three-bedroom Aurelia villa features an infinity pool and fully equipped kitchen for intimate gatherings, while Jupiter, the resort’s crown jewel, offers five bedrooms, an open-air entertainment area, and panoramic views.
The evolution also extends to Elios Spa, which features four treatment rooms, an outdoor heated jacuzzi, and an expanded fitness area.
“Our vision has always been to create hotels that are deeply connected to their environment—places that honor Greece’s heritage while offering a contemporary sense of hospitality,” says Kalia Konstantinidou, group executive officer of Empiria Group, owner and operator of Parīlio. “This new evolution of Parīlio is about refining that vision even further—creating spaces that invite guests to truly immerse themselves in the rhythms of Paros, where time slows and nature takes the lead.”
