Background
Paros is one of the Cyclades islands in the Aegean Sea, popular with visitors for its beaches and villages, including Naoussa and Parikia. Like Santorini, it is under review for potential STR (short-term rental) cap extensions under Law 5275/2026, as authorities consider widening the suspension model beyond the capital and Thessaloniki to high-pressure island destinations. No formal cap decision had been published as of 8 May 2026.
Paros has been increasingly popular with the nomad and longer-stay visitor demographic, particularly during shoulder and off-season months, due to its relatively affordable accommodation compared to Santorini and Mykonos. An STR cap review signals that even second-tier island destinations are within scope of the STR governance expansion.
