With an impressive score of 96.5 out of 100, Paros has been named the top island for 2025, in both Europe and worldwide, according to this year’s edition of Travel + Leisure’s World’s Best Awards. This distinction reinforces Greece’s prominent place on the global travel map — this time not through familiar names like Mykonos or Santorini, but through a destination that has quietly and steadily risen to become a global favorite.
In the European rankings, Paros secured the No. 1 spot, surpassing Ischia in Italy (2nd), Hvar and the Dalmatian Islands in Croatia (3rd), as well as other established destinations such as Madeira and Mallorca. Meanwhile, in the global rankings, Paros climbed to the very top, outshining even the most exotic locations like Bali, the Maldives, and Bora Bora.
Travelers praised the island for its natural beauty, warm hospitality, scenic charm, cuisine, and the overall quality of experience it delivers. Paros strikes a rare balance between authenticity and modern expectations, offering traditional tavernas and the cobbled lanes of Naoussa and Parikia alongside chic boutique hotels and stylish beaches. Every corner of the island offers something genuine — not just visually stunning, but emotionally resonant.
Prosperty has long been tracking the rising momentum of Paros in the real estate market, with data confirming strong and steadily growing demand for homes, holiday properties, and investment projects. This year’s global recognition further enhances the Paros brand, making it one of the most attractive and mature destinations for property acquisition or sale.
