Villa Margo III | 11-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool in Paros

Twenty-two guests across eleven bedrooms and eleven bathrooms: that’s the scale of luxury villa rental in Paros that Villa Margo III delivers. Positioned on the southern reaches of this Cycladic island, just 3km from Faragas Beach and within walking distance of the whitewashed charm of Alyki village, this dual-villa compound transforms large group holidays from logistical puzzle into seamless reality. The twin properties—Villa I and Villa II—function as independent homes that share nothing but spectacular sea vistas and the professional care of on-site staff.

Inside Villa Margo III

The accommodation spreads across two semi-detached structures, each with its own entrance, kitchen, and living spaces. Villa Margo III sleeps 22 guests across 11 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms, a configuration designed so that no guest ever shares a bathroom.

Villa I (6 bedrooms) anchors the western side. At ground level, three generously proportioned double bedrooms command panoramic views across the Aegean toward the silhouettes of Sykinos, Antiparos, and Folegandros. Each room features an ensuite bathroom, wall-mounted television, private safe, and direct access to a generous terrace where morning coffee arrives with island vistas. The ground floor also houses the main living hub: a lounge appointed with comfortable seating and flatscreen television, a dining area with seating for twelve, and a fully equipped kitchen featuring a professional oven, separate hob, integrated dishwasher, kettle, and toaster—the kind of kitchen that makes even reluctant cooks volunteer for evening meal duty.

Descending to the lower level, you’ll find two additional double bedrooms, both with ensuite bathrooms, walk-in wardrobes, televisions, and safes. A sixth bedroom on this level contains twin single beds with a convertible sofa option, accessible via a separate ground-level entrance for staff or additional guests requiring independent access. This room includes a full bathroom and safe. The lower level opens onto the private pool area and manicured gardens.

Villa II (5 bedrooms) mirrors the luxury on the eastern side. The upper level hosts two master double bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, each opening to private terraces with unobstructed sea views stretching toward Antiparos and beyond. A ground-level master suite commands its own private terrace overlooking the same vistas—ideal for guests who prefer easy access to outdoor living. The lower level contains two further double bedrooms, each with ensuite bathrooms featuring walk-in closets and individual safes. The main living area in Villa II features a corner sofa arrangement with television, a telescope positioned to take advantage of the clear Aegean night sky, a separate dining table seating ten, and a fully equipped kitchen matching Villa I’s specifications.

Throughout both properties, air conditioning maintains comfort during the warm months, while WiFi connectivity ensures the outside world remains accessible should you wish to check in. A SONOS sound system pipes music across interior and exterior spaces. Gym equipment scattered through both villas caters to guests who maintain their fitness routines. Laundry facilities handle the practical demands of large groups, and safes in each room secure valuables.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

Two private swimming pools—one serving each villa—offer the luxury of avoiding queues or scheduling conflicts when twenty-two guests seek refreshment. Pool-side loungers face south toward the afternoon sun. Shaded pergolas provide respite during peak heat, their latticed roofs casting dappled light across dining tables and conversation areas. Each villa operates an alfresco dining setup with tables and chairs positioned to capture the light at different times of day.

Villa I’s exterior features a substantial barbecue station, ideal for evening gatherings where grilled fish and vegetables arrive to tables overlooking the water. The landscaped grounds between the two villas create natural separation while maintaining the sense of a unified compound. The terrain slopes gently toward the south, with stone pathways connecting pools, terraces, and garden areas. At sunset, the light turns honey-gold across the whitewashed walls, a phenomenon that shifts noticeably between 6:15 and 6:45pm during summer months.

The views from any terrace extend across open sea. Unlike many island properties, there is no immediate development blocking the horizon—the sight lines reach to neighboring islands on clear days, and stars dominate the night sky with genuine darkness rather than the ambient light of resort areas.

Location: Paros and the Surrounding Area

Villa Margo III sits within the authentic rhythm of southern Paros, a quieter zone than the tourist-focused northern coast. Faragas Beach, 3km distant via the coastal road, delivers golden sand, crystalline shallows ideal for families, and a small taverna serving grilled octopus and local wine. The 10-minute drive to this beach makes impromptu afternoon swims entirely feasible.

Alyki village, essentially on the property’s doorstep (500 meters), preserves the traditional Cycladic character: narrow lanes, traditional stone buildings, a small supermarket, two tavernas, and the kind of slow pace that hasn’t changed in decades. The village has no tourist infrastructure—this is where locals eat, not where tour groups stop for photos.

For dining and shopping, Piso Livadi sits 8km north, a working fishing harbor where the tavernas along the waterfront source their seafood daily. The harbor front offers unobstructed sea views and remains quieter than Naoussa, though equally authentic. Fresh fish here costs substantially less than elsewhere on the island.

Naoussa, 12km north, transforms the island’s character entirely. This harbor town features colorful fishing boats, boutique shops, jewelry stores, and dozens of restaurants ranging from family tavernas to fine dining. The nightlife in Naoussa—bars, clubs, and late-night venues—contrasts sharply with the tranquility at Villa Margo III, though both remain accessible within a 20-minute drive.

Parikia, the island’s capital, lies 18km north and serves as the main ferry port. The town contains supermarkets, pharmacies, a public hospital, the Archaeological Museum of Paros (displaying Cycladic sculptures and Parian marble artifacts), and the stunning 13th-century Frankish castle. Ferries from Parikia connect to Athens (2.5-hour hydrofoil), Mykonos (45 minutes), Santorini (1.5 hours), and multiple smaller islands.

The Faraggas Environmental and Cultural Park, accessible from villa grounds via marked trails, covers 650 hectares of protected coastline and scrubland. Hiking trails wind through native Mediterranean vegetation—juniper, myrtle, and thyme—offering panoramic viewpoints and hidden beaches. The park preserves both natural habitat and archaeological sites from the Cycladic period.

For maritime activities, boat rental agencies in Naoussa and Piso Livadi arrange full-day rib boat excursions to secluded coves, neighboring island visits, and fishing expeditions. Antiparos, visible from the villa’s terraces, lies 2km across the water and features the renowned stalactite-filled Stalactite Cave, traditional village life, and excellent windsurfing beaches on the eastern shore.

Paros produces white wines of increasing reputation—several family wineries welcome visitors, particularly around Prodromos village (15km north) in the island’s interior. The local varietal, Monemvasia, produces crisp, mineral whites that pair exceptionally with local seafood.

The best time to visit runs May through September, with June and September offering warm weather (28-30°C) and lower crowds than July and August (32-34°C, peak season). April and October deliver pleasant temperatures (22-25°C) but increasing wind. Winter months are mild (12-15°C) but experience intermittent rain and reduced restaurant opening hours.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Extended families planning multi-generational holidays find Villa Margo III’s dual-property layout ideal. Grandparents can occupy ground-floor rooms in Villa I with direct pool access and minimal stairs. Adult children and spouses distribute across upper levels. Teenagers enjoy independence in Villa II’s separated wing. The staff couple handles housekeeping, removing daily friction over cleaning responsibilities.

Friend groups celebrating milestone birthdays or anniversaries benefit from the scale and separation. Eight to ten couples can occupy the property with each pair having an ensuite bedroom and lounge space where they can retire independently. The dual pools and multiple terraces prevent bottlenecks.

Corporate retreats and team-building trips utilize the property’s professional infrastructure: reliable WiFi for video calls, separate living zones for breaking into smaller working groups, and dining facilities for group meals without external catering.

Destination weddings with family attendance use one villa for the couple and wedding party, the other for guests. The size accommodates pre-wedding events, the ceremony itself on the sprawling terraces, and multi-day celebration without requiring outside accommodation.

Families with teenage children find the property enables healthy independence—older teens occupy their own bedrooms and bathrooms, reducing family friction. The beaches nearby suit swimming, the protected coves offer snorkeling, and the villages provide exploration without parental supervision anxiety.
