Our stay with Ioannis was absolutely amazing! Such a lovely apartment and such a lovely host. We could not have had a better experience on Naxos!
The host
Ioannis himself is a tourguide on the island so he could give us great recommendations on where to go, what to do and where to eat. He was always available whenever we needed his assistance and exceptionally friendly and welcoming.
The apartment
The apartment is perfectly located in a quiet area of Naxos Town (Chora), far away from the big tourist crowds but still close enough to reach the harbour, the beach or good restaurants by foot in a matter of minutes. Ioannis provided us with safe underground parking for our rental car, which made those time where we weren’t out exploring the island absolutely stress free. The great location - a little outside of the town center - also meant we didn’t have to squeeze through too many tiny alleyways with it. The interior and exterior of the apartment was just as tastefully furnished as shown on the pictures. Everything felt like it was chosen with „creating a home away from home“ in mind. And that very successfully! We even felt a little sad having to leave it behind and will most definitely come back!
The surrounding area
The area surrounding the apartment feels very safe and is more of a residential area than a tourist area. Everything is in walking distance: There’s a big supermarket 10 minutes down the road where you can get everything you could imagine but also a couple of tiny supermarkets for the most common necessities 3 minutes from the apartment. To Elliniko, a restaurant 5 minutes from the apartment, has become one of our absolute favourite places in the whole of Greece (one of the many recommendations by Ioannis).
Thank you for allowing us to be your guests Ioannis. We absolutely felt spoiled! Until next time :)
