An independent, luxurious and welcoming getaway, elegantly furnished down to the last detail, spick and span, fully equipped and functional. A relaxing heaven with a private pool, a garden and a unique view of a limitless horizon.
At Parathalasso you can sense even the slightest changes that indicate the arrival of the new seasons. In winter, you may sink in the plump cozy sofa in front of the cast iron fireplace and enjoy the radiant warmth of ‘your’ house. In spring, you may explore the paths of the nearby mountain or relax under the porch catching whiffs of the blooming garden. In summer, you may have a refreshing dip in the pool, before you get to decide where you will go for swimming or which small tavern serves the freshest fish on the seacoast. In fall, you sense the relief from the first drops of rain, watching them flowing down the large windows while you snuggle up with a hot drink or a glass of wine before a tasty takeout from the local eateries.
You see, here you can make everything happen. Whether your Parathalasso villa is a base for an active holiday with your family, a romantic escape or a get-away-from-it-all break with your books, your music and your tablet. A polite and discrete housekeeper will attend to all your needs before you even realize you have them.
As meticulously as she did when she decided to build this residence, paying attention to every little detail. Guided by her personal expectations when travelling the world, she provides her guests a warm and efficiently friendly service.
A stone parapet screening. Behind it, the crystal waters and the hardly beguiling looks of the sea urchins – comfortably far from where you stretch your feet.You dawdle along the beach to clear your head. All of a sudden you realize that few things seem to matter now: as the sun sets, you turn your head to your right, towards the green patch between Monastiraki and Chiliadou, opposite to the futuristic bridge overarching the Gulf of Corinth.The old village with the cottages that seem to flow into the sea; the same sea you can walk back to, across the stone esplanade.
At Parathalasso, the daily schedule is relaxingly simple : a walk to Monastiraki, dinner at a local, unassuming tavern and then late drinks at one of the bars on the outskirts of the village. The next morning, you are set to explore the beaches of Chiliadou, Skaloma, Marathia, Glyfada, Spilies or Trizonia, the little isle across the sea with its little ports, its charming taverns and its century-old houses.And then, it’s Nafpaktos. The beautiful coastal castle-city of Roumeli, built against a backdrop of lush green and visible from across the shores of Peloponnese . The walls of the medieval castle stretch to the sea and the Venetian port still protects the small boats of the local fishermen.Comfortably embraced by its castle, the city transpires a unique sense of peaceful serenity, bringing back memories of older times. Arguably, a city with a past that is inextricably woven into its present.
