Konstantino was a lovely host. His place is beautifully renovated, designed and very clean. It’s location is in the very heart of Charos Old Town. Konstantino told us about the buildings history and how it belonged to his family which was nice.
It must be said however, that due to the accommodation being directly above a restaurant, it was quite loud up until around 1am. The front door is situated between two tables at the restaurant. Which provides both a very authentic experience, but can be a slightly awkward entry or exit between people eating a meal.
We also were unable to check in until 4.30pm. This may have just been specific to that day but we did then have to find somewhere else to store our bags as we arrived on a ferry a few hours earlier.
Konstantino was easy to communicate with to help us find somewhere to keep our luggage before check in.
There are so many great restaurants close by, you are really spoilt for choice and shopping in the old town at night is a fun experience (literally a second away from the front door which is great).
If you plan to rent a car or quad bike while in Naxos you need to have an international drivers permit, which you need from your country before you leave. (We unfortunately didn’t realize this so we were unable to rent transportation for our stay). The accommodation is one minute away from Naxos port and the main bus stop. The buses are quite good (and affordable) to get you to some of the beautiful beaches of Naxos (some are between 30-60mins away by bus).
The accommodation is also very close to the temple of Apollo which is a beautiful spot to watch the sunset.
Overall we’d highly recommend Konstantinos beautiful place and the amazing Island of Naxos!
