Our 2nd trip to Naxos was in June 2022 and my husband and I decided to stay a little closer to St. George beach this time (in 2019 we stayed in the centre of Chora). We are so happy we chose Kymata Hotel for this trip. It was PERFECT!! Kymata Hotel is steps away from Agios Georgios beach (the closest beach to Naxos town center) but still only a 10 minute walk to the main center and “*****” of the Chora, and maybe 15 mins max walk to the main bus station. There are lots of restaurants, bakeries and supermarkets steps away from the hotel, and it was so nice to pop down to the beach in a matter of minutes for a swim, as the weather was HOT when we were there in June. There is no pool at this hotel so it was great to be so close to the beach if you like to swim like we do. The hotel itself is very clean, charming, peaceful, and very quiet for sleeping, which we were happy about. If you book your stay directly through the hotel’s website, your rate will include daily breakfast (buffet style). A handy feature is that there is a water tap just outside of the hotel which is fed by a natural mountain spring, so you can continuously fill up your empty water bottles during your stay, rather than buying new ones every day, as you cannot drink the tap water here. This was well used by us as we are big water drinkers and one of the bottles we kept filled to use for the kettle. Makis, Christos and Anna were all wonderful staff/hosts - they were always polite and very helpful, and we enjoyed speaking with them after our days out to share what we got up to each day. They also can arrange tours for you as well as car rentals, directly at the hotels desk. We stayed on the very top floor of the hotel in the “Suite with Sea View” (Two- roomed suite for 4 people on the top floor with sea, town, and port view). It had a HUGE terrace with a panoramic view of the sea, including St. George beach, the port where all the ferries would come in, the marina, the famous Portara (Arch of Apollo), and Paros Island just across the way. It also provided a lovely breeze on those hot sunny days and we could watch the most amazing sunsets directly from the terrace as well! There was a great amount of private outdoor space on te terrace and it was equipped with two large comfy arm chairs with seat cushions and a loveseat style sofa as well as a coffee table. There were also 4 lounger/sunbathing style chairs to relax on and enjoy all the sunshine. A covered section of the terrace provided some shade and had an outdoor dining table underneath to eat any take out you may bring back to your room. Our room had the best view in all of Naxos! The bed was queen size and firm but comfy, with soft sheets and lots of pillows. The room had a separate area (with a door) that had two couches which could each become a single bed, in there was also a tv, though we didn’t turn it on once so I’m not sure about channels. This additional room was great for early risers or if you have kids with
