This is a very special place. First, the location. You have a sweeping view of the town of Naxos and environs from both terraces. And from the top terrace, a sunset like no other.
The rooms are clean and furnished with a lovely personal touch. Maria and her family are a delight, generous with treats (I won't spoil the surprise) and local knowledge. Not only did Kyria Maria drive us back into town on the day we left - she also took our four-year-old to see her amazing farm, and then to the cafe with the best rice pudding in Naxos. This was an emotional return for me. I spent most of my childhood summers on this island before it became so touristic. Sitting on these terraces, I was able to find the beautiful island of my memories. Also remembering that the most special thing about the island is its people.
