Eirini’s house is absolutely fabulous. It is located at a beautiful spot on a secluded mountain side road, overlooking an undisturbed Naxian landscape, but also the sea, and Paros further afield. It is close (a 10 minute drive) to all the beaches on the southwest part of the island. It is also an excellent location to start an exploration of the wonderful mountain villages in the island’s interior; Apeiranthos and Chalki are about 15 minutes away. In some sense, though quiet and serene, the location is at the center of all the things one would like to visit in Naxos.
The house is charming, impeccably clean, and extremely well equipped: we loved the espresso machine! The summer “meltemi” wind keeps the house cool-while a heat wave was happening in Athens, we felt comfortable and did not turn the air conditioning on even once. It is a duplex (there is a second rental beneath it) but this apartment has the amazing view I mentioned above, and a great balcony terrace were we spent most of our time. Finally, Eirini and her family could not have made us feel more welcome: delicious fruit and vegetables from their garden where awaiting for us when we arrived, the house was well stocked, and both Eirini and everyone in her family were extremely kind and helpful, mindful to our every request.
