Cosme, a Luxury Collection Resort, Paros

Nous séjournons dans de nombreux hôtels de très grande qualité pendant nos deux semaines en Grèce et, pour être honnête, c'est celui qui m'a le moins enthousiasmé, car les avis semblaient mitigés et le rapport qualité-prix élevé. J'hésitais aussi entre séjourner à Naoussa et un complexe hôtelier plus éloigné comme Cosme, à 20 minutes à pied, qui propose des installations complètes, notamment une salle de sport et une piscine. Je suis ravie d'avoir choisi cet hôtel. L'hôtel est magnifique. Nous avons été surclassés dans une chambre exceptionnelle avec piscine privée. Le service est exceptionnel : de l'accueil chaleureux à l'arrivée rapide des clients à la piscine et à la plage pour nous apporter serviettes et eau. J'ai adoré le petit-déjeuner avec ses délicieux yaourts. La salle de sport était très agréable, climatisée et bien équipée. La chambre était toujours prête et nettoyée rapidement, avec des gourmandises le soir. Et même si la marche jusqu'à Naoussa était longue, j'ai vraiment trouvé que la gentillesse de l'hôtel, l'excellent service et les installations complètes valaient le coup.

Choose another property. The Cosme isn’t a 5 star property, maybe a 3 and I’m being generous. It’s a prime example of trying to put perfume on a pig. Checked in and left the property within 3 hours. Strongly recommend another property.

Excellent breakfast options, nice room, ocean views and balcony. Pool was awesome and beach access very easy. Dirt road towards town made sandals and shoes filthy. Not a short walk to Naousa and bit of an uphill and downhill walk (20 minutes).

The Bed mattress are old and needs to be changed asap. Everyone complained about the slowness of the Breakfast service, the staff mean well but they are not trained at all. On the other hand the housekeeping staff was vey efficient. The property is Super clean. I suggest you replace the breakfast service team with the Houyse keeping team and then watch the service efficiency.The beach was very nice and service was vet good as to the restaurant food was good but then again the service was lacking.Front desk/reception were very polite and helpful Overall I wouldn't recommend this property.

First time to Greece and first time to Paros. Recommended by our travel agent. The rooms were comfortable but not exactly super luxurious which is what you'd expect given the pricing. I'm guessing that has to do with the aesthetic of the Greek Islands but I don't know. The gym is a nice facility. The breakfast is quite fantastic and the waitstaff we met were all wonderful. The pool is quite nice; the beach is fine. This is a "private beach" but it's tiny and nothing to write home about. We did have dinner at Cosme one night and the food is good. Same for lunch. Agree with another reviewer that the lunch/dinner spot is right next to a dirt roadway. We liked the proximity to Naoussa and the local food we had at several restaurants was wonderful. I would recommend going into town vs the hotel restaurant for dinner. Our biggest disappointment was the catamaran cruise which cost approx $3,000 for the day. You would think a catamaran would actually sail, but the winds were too high that day and there was a captain, who knew how to sail, and a chef/first mate who did not know how to sail. We were not even able to get to most of the spots we were promised on this "sail" because of the gale force winds that day. Safety note: That is the captain's job- to check out the weather and advise those paying huge dollars for a private cruise that perhaps it would be wise to rebook. We were not so lucky. We asked to actually sail and got pushback from the captain. Our family members were actually helping out (perhaps we should get paid for our troubles??) It was an overall nauseating experience for one of our adult kids who got seasick and we all tired of the pounding of the boat on the waves due to the high winds. I even spoke with the GM of Cosme who sounded like she was going to try to get us even a small refund, but then went radio silent. Weeks later we finally heard that they would not refund anything. I mean, they had our money, am I not surprised?

A transcendently relaxing place, set on the most gorgeous spot on the island of Paros, this is not a place to “do” things. It is a 17 minute walk to the charming town of Naoussa, where there are a number of fantastic restaurants, but the reason to go to Cosme is to sit on the beach or by the pool, with one of the world’s great views in front of you. The food is not cheap but is shockingly good. The service is top notch, and the concierge is wonderful. It isn’t opulent, it is simply perfect.
