Marietta was a very kind and attentive host who met us from our bus and even stocked the fridge with some essentials for breakfast. She was
also generous enough to share some
local delicacies including a delicious quince jam that her mother made! Apeiranthos is somewhat off the beaten track, an hour’s drive from most of the popular beaches, and perhaps all the more picturesque for that. A lot of the town is only accessible on foot but Marietta’s place is easily within reach of the road. There are quite a few lovely restaurants with fabulous views in the village. Perhaps the one drawback is that we found it was quite noisy at night. It’s accessible by bus but if you don’t want to be tied to the timetable it’s helpful to have a car. Overall we found it a great base to explore Naxos and a village that’s definitely worth exploring for itself.
