We had a great stay at Nikitas’s place and enjoyed our trip to Naxos thoroughly. There are some pluses and negatives to this apartment but overall we had a great stay.
Pluses
1. The apartment while seemingly located in a run down area, is actually only a 5 minute walk to the beach, and 5 minute walk to some great restaurants and shops. It’s another 10 minutes to the port area which has great shops and restaurants as well.
2. The apartment is cleaned and serviced everyday while you stay there.
3. The hosts are super friendly and accommodating. They offered to pick us up from the port and drive us there at the end of our stay as well.
Negatives
1. The apartment is very small. Not a lot of space to move around and not a ton of privacy if it’s more than just a couple. I would not recommend it for more than a small family. We were there with our 3 year old son. There is also no cabinet space for clothing.
2. There is no enclosed shower space, it’s entirely open to the whole bathroom.
3. It’s a ground floor apartment right on the road so can be noisy at times.
In the end the pluses far outweighed the negatives and we enjoyed our stay. Thanks to the hosts for being so great!
