At the edge of Naxos Town and dead on the beach of Agios Georgios this is a deluxe hotel run by the island-born Spanos family that offers a lot more than many a five-star in the Cyclades.

Not only is it convenient for the beach and town nightlife, not only are the ivory-white surfaces a designer gem (in the last renovation rooms were merged to offer more space), but it also offers some eye-catching details.

Breakfast is cooked fresh daily with a free glass of sparkling wine; the bathrooms all have tubs as well as power showers; and the restaurant is always full of townspeople and the pool-cum-beach bar has some great kitron cocktails.

Please note - we hope to one day have live prices for you, but for now, here are some useful links for you to compare prices...

Venetian castle of Naxos
Experience

Venetian castle of Naxos

Naxos, Greek Islands, Greece[0.6 miles]

Naxos was the capital of the 13th-century Venetian conquests in the Cyclades, and the Kastro fortifications bear witness to its importance. Gothic gates, cobbled narrow streets, Roman Catholic cathedrals, mansions with heraldic coats of arms, an Ursuline school (now the Archaeological museum) – are all still lived in.

Portara, Temple of Apollo
Experience

Portara, Temple of Apollo

Naxos, Greek Islands, Greece[1.1 miles]

The conspicuous ‘Gate to Nowhere’ should have led to the never-completed Temple of Apollo, but today it’s is the perfect place to watch the glorious Aegean sunsets. It was allegedly built on the spot where the cad Theseus abandoned faithful Ariadne who’d helped him kill the Minotaur.

Temple of Demeter
Experience

Temple of Demeter

Naxos, Greek Islands, Greece[9.5 miles]

Reached easily by car in central Naxos, this partly reconstructed temple that dates back more than 2500 years was a stylistic milestone for many reasons – explained comprehensively through the English signage – but, most importantly, it was the first in Greece to be built wholly in marble.

Valindras Kitron Distillery
Experience

Valindras Kitron Distillery

Naxos, Greek Islands, Greece[10.5 miles]

This unassuming village, 16km from the capital, claims 13th-century frescos in the Panagia Protothronis church and a 17th-century Venetian Tower. But it’s the Valindras kitron distillery that everyone comes to visit: tour the factory, take part in tastings, and buy some bottles to take home.
