Melissa Chora — Hotel in Municipality of Naxos and the Lesser Cyclades

Nice place to stay, and nice people too. They came and picked us up at the port the day we arrived, and then they stored our bags and delivered them to us at the port the day we left, so that we could enjoy the island until the moment of our ferry, at 5pm. The room was new, nice and clean, outside there is a sort of common space with seaview and tables where you can relax, have breakfast or some refreshment during the day. In order to get to your room you have to pass by their tavern (there is no proper reception), which is definitely worth a try.

My husband called as we were on the ferry going back to Amorgos and the staff packaged them up for me and sent them on the ferry the next day! Wow. That’s Greece and Greek people for you! Always caring and kind! Thank you for the excellent meal...
