The apartment was perfect for what we wanted, a quiet retreat on the coast with onsite parking. We were greeted by Naxos train station and brought to the location as you could easily miss it which was a nice touch. We were well looked after by our hosts.
It was extremely quiet in late September so for the majority of time it felt that we were completely alone except for a gardener in a very large complex.
The bus was close but we chose to walk to Iso Bella as it was only 2km along the coast. Taormina required a bus or taxi. Naxos was walkable, again about 2km to restaurants and bars.
The train line obscured any view from the private balcony so we used the large communal one two stories up to sit and watch sunset over Mount Etna which was an absolute highlight. A great base for visiting the volcano.
