A trip to remember
Pros:

The staff went above and beyond daily to make us feel welcome. Housekeeping did an immaculate job cleaning the rooms and were very accommodating with times. The pool was in excellent condition and there were plenty of sun loungers and refreshments available. Would definitely recommend staying here.
Special thanks to the staff from Sheila :)

Homely, clean and relaxing
Pros:

Review for hotel

Excellent value for money. The staff were incredibly friendly, but left you to your privacy which we personally loved.

The hotel communal pool and bar area is exactly as it looks in the photos, was lovely to lay out in the sun by the pool.

The room itself was spotless on arrival and cleaned every single day to what seemed like the same condition as when we checked in. The bathroom was perfect, with a really good shower.

The balcony was lovely and I have photos of the most beautiful sunsets and sunrises I've ever seen in my life.

We stayed for nearly 2 weeks and we would have happily stayed longer if not for our flight home. With its perfect location outside the busy center but close enough to walk in 10 minutes, it felt homely and safe. We were always excited to come back to the hotel after a long day, it really was a home away from home

Thank you so much for having us as guests. We are very sad to leave and we would love to come back in the future.

Cons:

Everything was great.

Comfortable hotel with a huge pool, which’s unusual! Easy walk to the port, cafe & laundromat across the road.
Pros:

Nice room, beautiful pool, friendly staff

Cons:

I would’ve appreciated proper cups in the room rather than paper cups.
Some cutlery & plates/bowls as well as glasses would’ve been nice too.

We loved Paros, adored the postcard perfect Noussa and our beautiful hotel Summershades.
Pros:

We loved our stay at Summer shades, the pool area was beautiful as were the rooms with our balcony overlooking a pomegranate tree.
Thankyou to Alkis for his welcoming and kind service throughout our stay.
All the boys were exceptional at reception.

Cons:

It was a little longer to walk into town than we expected..but great for fitness after lovely meals in the beautiful town of Naoussa.
Just a busy road at times without a proper footpath but the hotel makes up for that inconvenience.

A pleasant but Noisy stay
Pros:

The staff were very friendly and helpful.
The pool area and bar was good

Cons:

The hotel is situated on a corner of a major ring road and the junction of the main road from Naousa. The traffic noise on a nighttime is not good, un-baffled mopeds and scooters, quad bikes and cars continue throughout the night although it does quieten down around 3am.
The walk into town and back has no pavement and is on the main road into town.

Pros:

Clean and spacious rooms, comfortable beds. Lovely big pool area with a pool bar that has a good range of drinks. Front desk staff were very helpful and friendly, they arranged taxis for us and gave good advice on where to go in Naoussa!

Cons:

The hotel is by some busy roads which isn’t good if you’re a light sleeper, but I requested a room that would be in a quieter part of the property and the hotel were able to accommodate. Bathrooms could do with some improvements like a shower curtain as the whole bathroom would get soaked after using the shower

Très bon séjour et bien dormi
Pros:

La patronne est très sympathique et accueillante. Le nettoyage des chambres est impeccable. On nous a proposé de choisir entre une chambre côté route, avec un excellent matelas, et une chambre côté piscine, où le matelas était moins confortable. Nous avons choisi celle côté route, et cela ne nous a pas dérangés. Petit bémol : un bruit persistant dans la salle de bain, comme une ventilation.

La piscine est magnifique, même si un peu fraîche. En revanche, le barman est un peu moins souriant : un peu de musique et plus de dynamisme donneraient sans doute plus envie de consommer. Le choix de repas au bord de la piscine reste assez limité.

L’hôtel est très bien situé, à environ 10 minutes à pied du port de Naoussa (ça grimpe un peu, ce qui peut être difficile pour certaines personnes).

Cons:

J avais demandé une chambre vraiment sympa pour l anniversaire de ma maman. Et il répondait qu il pouvait pas savoir avant. Bref ça été quand même. J aurai juste espérer être vers la piscine avec un bon matelas mais je chipote.
