There are hotels of all different categories on the island. I strongly suggest you book them through a travel agency in Athens. You won't be paying any more than if you book directly and in many cases you will pay less since the travel agencies get the rooms for cheaper and can mark them down to be competitive.  Also if you book directly with the hotel you will be on your own when it comes to figuring out the ferry and flights for getting to the island and because there is no profit in ferry tickets or flights (and a lot of labor) for the travel agency, you probably won't find one willing to book your boat and plane tickets for you unless you have booked hotels with them. Plus it is good to have someone in Greece working on your behalf in case there are any changes or unforeseen difficulties, especially if you are planning to visit more than one island.

I stayed at the Hotel Conteratos Beach on my last trip and I can say that this is one of the better family run hotels I have stayed at and certainly one of the best in Paros in terms of quality, service and location. The beach which is right in front of the hotel is clean and probably the best beach within walking distance of Naoussa. The pool and area around it was beautiful and the small bar was very nice and a good place to meet our fellow guests. There is a hot tub too. All rooms and suites come with a satellite flat-screen TV, air conditioning and a safe. Going into Naousa was an easy walk and there are several routes you can take. The family who owns the hotel are friendly and very helpful with information about the island. The hotel has free wifi which is very important The breakfast was your usual hotel breakfast but really you won't find the kind of breakfast that would satisfy an American appetite at any but the most expensive hotels and then you really pay for it. I suggest using the Hotel Conteratos page to book with Fantasy Travel but for those who are comfortable booking their own hotels and ferries you can use this link to the Booking.com Hotel Conteratos Page. Both these above photos are from the hotel.
