Can I give this 100 stars?! Seriously, we had the BEST time at Mario's apartment. He was there to let us in when our ferry arrived past midnight, gave us local tips and tons of guidance while we were there, and ensured we got on the ferry to head back to Athens at the end of our stay. We had planned to do day trips during our stay in Naxos but were seriously so happy we didn't want to leave. The beach is 2 minutes walking and not only is it beautiful and serene but its AMAZING for kids. The water is crystal clear and calm. We have a 3 and 4 year old and they had a blast spending every day at the beach. There is a car rental place right around the corner so we were able to rent a car with just a day's notice for 30 euro which was great for exploring the island, and the bus connection to Naxos Town is super easy. The bakery and supermarket that are walking distance were visited every day - we are still craving the feta and greek yogurt made on the island- and the nearby restaurants are awesome. The whole area is very safe and we felt like we were staying with family the whole time. Our room was cleaned daily which was such a pleasure to come home to after a long day at the beach. There is a playground in the back if the apartments so the kids could play while we ate on the balcony. Seriously so many good things to say about this place and our stay!!!! Don't hesitate to book!
