Paralos lifestyle beach was an amazing experience from the check in to check out. During check in we were offered champagne while we filled in our information. Evey employee greets you as you pass each other in a kind and friendly manner. There are two dinning facilities on the property, one which is included in your stay and another that is more personal and you pay for. Both were excellent! The resort has a private beach, 2 common area swimming pools and also has rooms with private pools. I will say that our room was a little small but that's fine for us. If you pack a ton of stuff you might feel cramped. There is an outside fitness area which if you prefer dumbbells and free weights you will like a lot better than the fitness room. This area also has a ping pong table and a dart board. The resort also has a spa on premises. Katia from the spa was amazing. Not only did she handle clients upon entering but she answered other questions we had about the area. With it being so dry we booked a couple's package with hydration wrap and you can feel the difference! While we were checking out and waiting for the transport that the resort set up for us, they provided us a breakfast care package since we had to leave before breakfast was available! The staff is ama

Very nice adults only hotel! Particularly liked the beach pool continuation and the extremely friendly staff! Would benefit from an update in certain areas like bathroom fittings and plumbing, new towels as the ones provided were visibly very old, as well as more coffee options included as standard with breakfast. it’s the first hotel i have been that the only offer filter coffee and tea for breakfast-not even decaf! Any other option have to be paid which is very weird in Greece in 2024!

George, Anna & Nonas hospitality at Al carte ( Ammonia) was mind blowing. They were very welcoming and the food and service was excellent. We really recommend it everyone to choose Paralos Lifestyle as their destination to make the vocation great. Thanks to the whole Paralos team.

The friendliness of the majority of staff. The front desk was very helpful. The rooms were very clean along with daily cleaning. The dining had a variety of food that was very good this included the buffet for breakfast and dinner as well as a la carte dining. The waiters and waitresses were personable with excellent service. The only issue in our room was the air conditioner that took awhile to resolve. Otherwise a great experience.

Really an exceptional property! I was very impressed, from the friendly staff to the beauty of the rooms and amenities! Honestly the staff makes this hotel about 20 times better than most other resorts I’ve been to, they are willing to go out of their way to make your stay the best it can be! The resort itself is beautiful, little pools everywhere with cabanas and comfy lounge chairs scattered. The beach area is pristine with umbrellas and a lovely bar that serves you at the push of a button. The food was phenomenal! You don’t even have to leave for any reason if you don’t want to, they have everything you need! Even a gym, daily yoga and shows at the pool bar! I highly enjoyed my stay and will be back!

The property is in Ammoudara and offers a beautiful oceanfront view with a beach lounge. We picked it because it was adults only and all-inclusive (minus drinks). The area around the property is a little rundown and not as much touristy shopping. It’s clear this resort is high-class compared to others we saw in the area.
