This rental is a little gem. I wanted to stay away from the hustle and bustle of Chora, but not be disconnected from conveniences, and I found all this at this studio. The location is perfect--it is peaceful and connected to lovely beaches (with one just 100 meters away for swimming), a bakery, 2 supermarkets, and several tavernas. I did not need a car, and could take the bus to Chora (note that the ride there is over an hour). The studio itself is roomy, nicely designed and has spacious terrace (good for hanging out and drying one's towels/swim suits). But more than this, there is one secret ingredient that makes this rental so special. Mario is not simply helpful (and he truly is)--it's really quite something to stay with a host who genuinely gets so much pleasure out of meeting and supporting visitors to Naxos. He enjoys people. The place is filled with joy, and you feel it in the warm smiles of Mario's family members when you bump into them during the day. You enjoy a lot of privacy, but also feel the embrace of hospitality. This is a special place that has a lot heart.
