1875 panoramic stone house

Guest access: The traditional cobbled alleys and stone steps of the village do not allow car circulation. Access to the house is possible via a narrow, quite steep and bumpy road that ends up in a small parking lot, from which you can reach the house in 2 minutes by walking down a path. Alternatively, you can park your car gratis in the big and easily accessible village car park, from which you will need to walk up quite a few stone steps (300 metres – approx. 5min). The house is not recommended for small children due to the style of the terrace balustrade that has large openings. It is not recommended for people with reduced mobility because it is not easily accessible and also has steps between the 2 levels. Those who want to experience the authentic Naxos, away from the hustle and bustle, can explore the picturesque alleys of the village, with the whitewashed houses, the vine pergolas, the gorgeous bougainvilleas, and the aromatic basil as well as encounter the hospitable local residents. This unique experience, combined with the aesthetics of the house and the magnificent view, will reward the visitor. Other things to note: The house has 50cm thick stone walls that keep it cool in the summer months. Plus, there is an air conditioner in each bedroom and in the kitchen for cooling or heating, in case it is needed. Cleaning is done with materials approved by the relevant regulatory agencies. The towels and sheets provided are washed and sanitized by a certified company with long-term experience in this field. The hosts: We love travelling because it offers us the chance to explore new places and get in touch with people, their stories and culture. We are extremely happy to host in our house travellers that will be bringing along their own stories and taking back home unique moments and beautiful memories. Arriving in our village, the cohost will welcome you and guide you to the house and, during your stay, he will be at your disposal for anything you need.
