The Lefkes Village Hotel on the Greek island of Paros is included on a list compiled by CNN on affordable island hotels that span the globe.

CNN includes affordable hotels from destinations usually reserved for big spenders to others barely on the radar of most travelers.

The Lefkes Village Hotel on Paros is suggested first on CNN’s list: Part of the Cyclades, Paros delivers all the archetypal Greek island draws—whitewashed churches, bougainvillea-festooned houses, panoramic Aegean views—without the high prices of neighboring hot spots Santorini and Mykonos. Case in point: this 20-room contemporary hotel in the quiet mountain village of Lefkes, with a swimming pool, a small museum, and a tavern that uses ingredients gathered from the surrounding fruit trees and gardens. From $70.

“Whatever your idea of paradise, we think you’ll agree that every gem on our list deserves treasure island status,” CNN notes.

CNN’s list of affordable hotels include La Veranda Resort, Vietnam; Copamarina Beach Resort & Spa, Puerto Rico; Fairbanks House, Amelia Island, Florida; Fishers’ Loft, Newfoundland, Canada; Auberge Seraphine, St. Lucia; Rosario Resort & Spa, Orcas Island, Washington; Villa Serena, Dominican Republic; Sangat Island Dive Resort, Palawan, Philippines; and La Tosca, Capri, Italy.
