Giorgos's house is special in ways that are almost hard to describe, certainly for a non-Greek but maybe for anyone. It is located in one of the highest villages on Naxos and a traditional one, agrarian-centered. It feels remote in all the right ways and yet so close to other beautiful high villages such as Koronos and Apiranthos, which have more restaurants, taverns, coffee shops, and exquisite traditional bakeries among their sites such as Museums and Byzantine churches. The fishing village and beaches of Apollon and the hidden jewel beach of Lionas with its fresh seafood restaurants are both a short drive, among other places to visit and enjoy. Giorgos's place has the rare balance of having been renovated and completed with modern conveniences (perfect kitchen for everything, high speed wireless, etc) yet retaining its character with its handmade stone bed, for example, and dark metal chandelier, and the balconies whose views at sunrise, for coffee in the morning, all day and at night to the stars, are incomparable.It is a special place from which to enjoy some of the other, perhaps less seen and experienced, landscapes, culture, and gifts of Naxos. I feel so lucky to have stayed there...
