One of my stops in Greece is Naxos for 3 days. We are 6 adults (we will each have our own rooms, so not interested in sharing apartment or house). Since we are first timers there, we would like to be active with walking distance to town, beach, restaurants and not secluded. We are thinking about one of the following hotels. Can anyone give comments/thoughts on these:
Hotel Grotta, Naxos Resort Beach Hotel, Nissaki Beach, IPPOKAMPOS NAXOS, Emery Hotel, Porto Naxos, Naxian Secret
We stayed at Hotel Grotta right before Covid. Very nice modern rooms overlooking the ocean and Temple of Apollo. The closest beach is down a short path but the beach is pebbles not sand. Maybe 10 minute walk to town. Wonderful breakfast. The owners were very helpful with sightseeing directions and restaurant suggestions.
It really depends on whether you plan to rent a car or not. We stayed in an Airbnb just about a 15-minute drive from the ferry port. Our host picked us up, and then we were able to rent a car in the nearby town, which was within walking distance of the Airbnb. We loved Naxos and stayed a week in September of 2019. The Airbnb was located in Agios Prokopios, which has a great sandy beach area and a nice town, with lots of restaurants, shopping, and bars.
