On the seafront there are plenty of bars and restaurants and just behind there are great little shops filled with jewellary and knick knacks. Naxos isnt as lively as Santorini either and when we travelled (May) it was mainly full of Greeks. Saturday night was probably a bit quiet for our liking. However this island is still worth a visit. Apparently diving and other water sports are very popular here.close

This island isn't as heavily visited as Santorini but it has a good tourist industry. just like I couldn't say enough about our amazing studios, I can't say enough about Naxos either. The people were great, the food was great, the bars were great. It was nice to find a place that made me feel at home after being on the road for more than a month with a month to go. I can't wait to go back! There is no shortage of night time activities - there are places to sit and chill out and there are club to dance at.close

Top Rated Naxos Places to Stay

  1. Pension Sofi 94%      

    This is the best hostel I've stayed in during my entire stay in Greece - and I've stayed in many! Upon arrival we were picked up at the port and then offered free homemade Naxos wine and cheese. It was amazing! We were also offered the same the next night. The owners told us great places to...

  2. Hotel Spiros 93%      

    The hotel was beautiful and clean and only a couple of minutes walk from the beach. I suggest that you take a cab from the port because if you do not know the area, it can take a while. It is a 5- 10 min walk to the city centre. I recommend staying there if you ever go to Naxxos.

  3. Ikaros Studios 93%      

    Ikaros Studios were great! They are a little bit away from the centre of the port town of Naxos, but we thought this made them even better! It took a maximum of 20minutes to leisurely stroll into town, and the hotel was clean and had plenty of room with great balconies and an excellent pool. I...

    The ratings I gave were just a guess as we did not actually stay there. It looked great though! There was an issue with our booking so we were given accommodation at the same price at Princess of Naxos, which is an incredible place right by the beach. But the staff at Anatoli were so lovely, and...

    The best place we stayed while Greek island hopping. Incredible value for money - we had an ensuite room with a fridge and hob with a small balcony. The room was cleaned every day and had its own security box (at no additional cost) It is 30 seconds walk to St Georges beach and a short 5 minute...

Top Rated Naxos Restaurants

  1. Picasso80%      

    • What?

        Mexican Cuisine
    • Anything Else?

        The restaurant serves good Mexican food and there is one restaurant in the town and another located at Plaka Beach.

    Traditional, well made Mexican food in Greece, one of two Picasso restaurants on the island of Naxos. The portions are very big so beware. Near the main square in Naxos it is close to all markets and nightlife

Top Rated Naxos Attractions

  1. Portara100%      

    Portara is situated on a small rocky island on the fringe of the harbor, and it is the monument which makes the most impression on the visitors having become the island’s trademark. Over the centuries the local people have given it the name Portara (i.e. huge door). This monument, forgotten by time, is the gigantic marble gateway into what was once a temple...
