Omilos Beachfront House

The location isn’t accurate since its a new resort.

So this is kind of an awkward situation. Somehow, I booked this twice. Once through them directly and once through Booking.com. They questioned it out when we checked in, but not before. I would have appreciated an e-mail prior to our arrival asking for clarification since both reservations had the same name, date, and verbiage regarding celebrating our anniversary with them. While my error, which is still a mystery to me, Omilos wasn't helpful or sympathetic. Booking did reach out to Omilos folks and their answer was "I'm not in front of the computer so can't answer that." We were also told at check-in that Booking hadn't paid yet, even though we had been charged. We tried to release the second room, and Omilos said no. The next day they claimed that Booking had not contacted them, and that they couldn't see their computer to see if Booking had paid. Both weren't true, as I received the messages that Booking sent, and was on the phone when they reached out to Omilos. In addition, the same woman who looked at the screen to tell us Booking hadn't paid yet, the next day said only the bookkeeper can see that. It really kind of tainted our stay a bit. We understand that it was my error, and Booking did try to get a resolution of some sort, like releasing their commission and trying to bargain a bit on our behalf so we wouldn't be paying fully for both rooms. Omilos wouldn't budge. One of the days, staff came to our door saying the neighbors below were complaining about our veranda furniture moving in the breeze, and being noisy. As we hadn't been there all day, it was odd. I was told to move the furniture against the wall in case the wind was blowing. The furniture was very heavy, and I had a broken arm. He didn't offer to help which was weird. Don't know what the neighbors were hearing, but definitely not our furniture! Nice place, but we didn't find the staff helpful or very honest.

Everything but the stray cat! This property is owned by and part of Agnanti Resort & Spa in Parikia, on Paros island. I stayed there several nights before they closed for the summer tourism season. It had a broken sink faucet, pink mould growing all over the shower, brown sludge coming out of the drain, crooked fixtures falling out of the wall, dirty cups and utensils, snobby reception staff, litter and bags of trash strewn all around the beachfront property, no path down to the beach (only 100m away), dusty cobwebs and piles of dead insects all over the windows. Not even a bottle of water in the fridge, which was not cold. Worst of all I waited over an hour for a taxi after the reception lady told me she would not call a taxi for me unless I stayed an additional night (is business so bad that they need to threaten guests?). Beyond rude and unhelpful. This was the worst experience during my time in Greece. Agnanti Resort and its Omilo houses gave me a horrible impression of Paros. It’s also an hour walk on a poorly paved road to the port. This is just one of the many unsustainably built vacation homes built and used for the summer tourism season, likely at the expense of ground stability on the hillside once covered by vegetation. Basically a disappointing and unpractical money pit. Decorations were cute though.

We were in apartment 5 which is underneath apartment 4, it was quite windy and we heard the chairs on the balcony moving non-stop, it was so bad we ask hotel staff to move the chairs inside (which they did very fast so thank you) but if people were staying above I think it would be quite noisey as we could hear the hotel staff opening and closing the door and moving around.

Nao gostei tanto da localização, haviam praias perto com preços mais salgados por uma vista que poderia ser mais bacana.

Uma muito má relação qualidade preço. Demasiado caro para a qualidade do alojamento, que na realidade não corresponde às fotografias.

אם היה יותר פעמים שאטל לעיר היה כמובן חוסך נסיעות במונית

The house was in the second row of the beach and the restaurant is not in walking distance. Bute there are two other beach clubs right at the beach.
The view from the pool is no longer a sea view because there is another hotel built.

Odanın içinde hoş olmayan bir koku vardı

Les photos sont trompeuses il y a un bâtiment juste devant la terrasse il faut regarder à droite pour voir la mer
Aucune séparation entre les terrasses on vit avec les voisins, des canis auraient été bienvenus
Un peu isolé de tout, véhicule obligatoire
La lumière forte et clignotante du panneau issue de secours et de la clim

The walk to the shared facilities
The price of the beach lounges
