Best Hotels near Venetian Castle of Naxos, Naxos

We loved this hotel so much! The second you walk through the door into the huge reception lounge it just feels luxurious. The staff are amazing and so helpful. Everywhere was spotless. Our room was large and very comfortable. Great beds. Lovely thick towels and robes. Great aircon. A Fridge. Fantastic location just on the edge of town. Despite having a room right on the road side we couldn't hear a thing. Our room was so quiet. There is a supermarket right opposite and the beach, bars and restaurants are a 5-10 minute walk through the back streets. All really safe to walk through day or night. The best part had to be the pool. It was the most relaxing pool we have ever been to. There only seemed to be adults there during our visit so it was really peaceful. There was chilled house music playing. Big comfy sunbeds that were readily available and not reserved or hogged by absent users! Dani was amazing. The second you needed anything he was right there with fresh towels, putting up your parasol or fetching you something from the bar. Vasilis the bar tender made some really lovely cocktails. The food was lovely and very reasonably priced. We really can't praise it enough and would go back in a heartbeat. Naxos itself is beautiful. Chora and the port area are spectacular. Such great views, especially at sunset. No end of great places to eat and drink. A real Greek gem. I can't wait to go back and will definitely stay at this hotel next time.

We stayed at Nastasia Village for about 1 week in August. All the staff were really kind, in particular Emanuela who always gave us useful advices for our holiday (most beautiful beaches to see according to the wind, interesting and historycal places in the inside of the Island, etc) and efficent services even if we asked for them immediately for the day before (boat trips, car rental, etc). The hotel position is strategic, despite not being directly on the beach front. You can easily walk to Naxos centre and up to the castle and old market (must-see!), without being in the noisy heart of the village. You can access Naxos beach in 10min by walk and bus stop and car/atv rental are close by, avoiding the traffic of the centre. The breakfast was wonderful, full of typical Naxos food (both sweet and salty) and a really good greek yogurt on which you can add honey, chocolate sauce, fruit, marmelade etc. But what will remain the most in our heart will be Spiky, the cat of the hotel. It is a really good and quiet cat that will only look for cuddles (and food). Please do not hesitate to give him some cat food and lot of cuddles, he will really adopt you! You Will find him outside your room to welcome you or to give you the good morning :) We really felt in love with him and with Nastasia Village, if possibile for sure we will come back there in order to live again this authentic greek experience again.

My sister and I had a fabulous time staying at Evilion. It’s a great location, 5-15 minute walk to everything you need. And the room was great: big, beautiful, and well-maintained, with a wonderfully comfy bed (a true blessing after a long day’s hike up Mount Zas, I can tell you). The highlight, however, was the manager/owner, Nektarios. Not only did he pick us up from the port, but along the way gave us a helpful tour of the town so we knew our way around. After he showed us to our room, he brought us watermelon grown on his father’s farm, and ice cold, homemade lemonade. Wherever the fruit was from, it was delicious, and very welcome after a day of traveling. He’s of course very knowledgeable about the town and the island in general, and gave us great tips about the most interesting villages to explore and the best restaurants to eat at. He made our short stay in Naxos an absolute pleasure and we definitely hope to come back again (fingers crossed we’ll also be able to stay at the Evilion) to explore this beautiful island in a lot more depth.
