Hotels near Portara, Naxos

We had an exceptional stay at V Luxury Apartments in Naxos. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the town, yet quiet enough to relax and unwind after a day of exploring the island. From the moment we booked, the experience was seamless. Aris, the host, went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and stress-free. He provided detailed information about the island both before our arrival and throughout our stay, offering great recommendations and ensuring we had everything we needed. The apartment itself was spotlessly clean. The bed sheets and towels were pristine, and every detail reflected a high standard of care. We were pleasantly surprised with a welcome bottle of wine, a fruit basket, and coffee pods waiting for us upon arrival—a thoughtful touch that made us feel immediately at home. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Naxos. Clean, comfortable, and incredibly well-hosted. We highly recommend it and would definitely return!

Family run hotel. Super friendly owner. He picks you up from the port and send you to the hotel. First class service.  Bed was king size and super comfortable. Renovation looks relatively new. The cleaning ladies do a good job keeping the room clean.  Just around the corner is an eatery whereby you can get your meals and daily coffee. Supermarket is nearby as well. We actually bought a bit of food and did our own cooking.  My first time in Naxos but if I were to come back. I would definitely stay at Evilion again. It just felt so homely and really love the big bed and soft pillows.

We had a lovely stay at Emery Hotel and would happily recommend it. The location is fantastic—just a short walk to both the port and Naxos Old Town, making it a great base for exploring. Although there are a few flights of stairs uphill from the port, it was still manageable even with large suitcases. The highlight of our stay was the wonderful hospitality. The receptionist was incredibly warm and welcoming. She sat us down with a map, pointed out her favourite places to visit, and gave us genuinely helpful, unbiased recommendations. We especially appreciated her suggestion to rent a car, which turned out to be one of the best decisions we made on the island. The hotel was clean, in a safe area, and we also enjoyed having a small balcony. The only downside was that the room was quite compact. There wasn’t much space to open or store our luggage, so we ended up keeping our suitcases near the bathroom vanity. The shower was also separated by a very sheer, almost transparent curtain, which may not suit everyone looking for more privacy. Our balcony overlooked a quiet, empty area, so the view wasn’t particularly memorable. Overall, the excellent location, cleanliness, and exceptional service more than made up for the smaller room, and we’d be happy to stay here again.

Philoxenia: literally translates to “friend to a stranger”. This cannot be more applicable than with my recent stay at Blue Harmony apartments. From the friendly communication before arrival, to Kleonike meeting us at the bus stop to drive us to the room, my cousins and I were treated like family. Upon checking in, Kiria Kleonike offered us a welcome drink of ice cold homemade lemonade and a traditional Greek dessert that easily compares to what our grandmothers made. The accommodations were clean and modern and the location was perfect for our goal of relaxation at the beach. I can’t recommend this hotel enough and will be back for sure.

Service is good, the lady owner tries her best to help us. However issue is there is no 24/7 reception so that is an issue because we sometimes cannot locate the owner. But she is friendly. Room is clean and view is great and location is good, near to the port. However be careful of the taxi scams.. good to have the owner call one for you. Safe location as well (2 women travellers)

I loved everything: great location, clean, the staff

I booked 4 nights here for my Mum and I and it was a delightful stay. Very quick and easy to get to from the port (a 5 minute drive) located in a peaceful country spot just outside of the old town. Location is lovely and peaceful with the sound of farm animals in the distance and there is a huge supermarket 2 minutes walking distance away. Walking to the beach takes about 12-15 walk. As well as a lovely strip of shops, cafes and restaurants. The accommodation itself is stunning, rustic but stylish and super clean with all amenities in the villas (including washing machine) The pool and breakfast area is stunning. Quiet and stylish. The breakfast is a lovely buffet with enough options for all tastes. The staff - and especially Fotini - are wonderful. Very warm and accommodating. Fotini helped us book taxis, invited us to her nephews birthday celebration on site and the lovely bar lady (I didnt get her name) was chatty and made lovely cocktails at pool side service. It is a really classy and beautiful place. Perfect for families or couples to really chill out. The bar (serving bar food/snacks) only opens at 2pm which was a slight shame, we would've enjoyed music by the poolside and drinks even more from mid-morning atleast. But besides that a wonderful place and would highly recommend!

Luxurious room and great atmosphere. It would be better if they gave us a water bottle as a complimentary gift.

Very good location though! Nice cozy rooms!! Quite big parking, also very convenient!!

Very good experience, next to the beach, the sand quality is good, the sea water within a few tens of meters in front is not deep, very suitable for children or people who can't swim, the breakfast is great. Naxos is quiet and comfortable, and I look forward to coming again next time
