Great family run hotel run by amazingly friendly and helpful man Stamatis. Went above and beyond to help me feel comfortable as a solo traveler including providing assistance when I left my only bank card high up on the mountain top somewhere! ( don’t be like me bring a back up!)
I went to Apollonas on a whim to escape the crowds at Naxos town and glad I did ended up staying a week at the hotel instead of my initially planned 2 days. I caught the bus from the port super easy 7euro return, but the hotel does transfers too. The drive over is great heaps of big sea views from high up.
Apollonas is tiny but it has everything you need , a safe and clean beach, enough restaurants , (stin plaz has great cocktails right on the sand ) It’s laid back and slower than Naxos town but personally that’s what I enjoyed the most . It’s also a lot cooler temperature than town with pleasant breeze most of the time. They got a cool marble statue, and some great little mountains around it you wanna take a walk . But personally sitting by the beach doing not much was my goal and it’s a great little spot to do it .
The hotel is right across the road from the beach and they do a great breakfast on the deck in the mornings . If you ever need anything just ask Stamatis he’s always ready to help , total legend of a man!
Go to Apollonas and stay at the Adonis for a real Greek experience !
