This place is great for a family or group. We were there during a particularly hot week and while you Could walk to catch the bus, it too hot for us to stand in the sun with some health issues. So we rented a car. That made ask the difference staying on Naxos. Nights with a fan (no air-conditioner) were comfortable and there were screens on the windows. There is a wonderful view, especially in the morning from the front windows. Being able to do laundry was a plus!
