Latest reviews on Ampelas's beaches
Porto Paros beach

Evan M.
Yesterday, I happened to pass by this hotel that I had been contemplating staying at before my trip. Since I was in the vicinity, I thought I'd take a look. However, I was utterly disappointed by the hotel's condition, as it appeared to be in a state of complete disrepair. In fact, it resembled a deserted ghost town. I strongly advise against booking this place.
Monastiri beach

Luis Hernandez.
What a delightful beach! Accessible by car, it is an ideal spot to park up for Paros Park, take a stroll, and then cool off in the tranquil sea. The shallow waters are perfect for little ones to splash around in before it gradually gets deeper, and the water itself is calm and inviting. Whether you prefer to lay your towel on the rocks or the sandy beach next to the sunbeds, there is plenty of space to relax. For a small fee of 35 euros, you can enjoy two sunbeds and a bean bag chair that you can pull out. If you're looking for a more premium experience, you can opt for the front row for 50 euros or the second row for 45 euros. The service is exceptional, with the convenience of being able to order food and drinks straight to your umbrella with the push of a button. We highly recommend the club sandwich, which we customized to be vegetarian - a perfect snack for two with generous portions. Additionally, there are water sports available and a restaurant area if you want to take a break from sunbathing for lunch. Overall, this beach is a must-visit for anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable day out.

During our visit in May, the beach was peaceful and serene, as it was the beginning of the season. The beach is expansive, boasting a lengthy stretch of yellow sand that is perfect for leisurely walks or sunbathing.
