Stella Naxos Island

Very beautiful hotel. Perfect pool and bar with super friendly bartender. Room clean . Staff super friendly and helpful. Right next to the sea. What could you wish for more. Busstop to prokopios, Chora, in front of hotel ever half an hour. Would come back here for sure...

My husband and I and our two adult daughters stayed for four nights the beginning of July. Stella is located on the quiet north end of Plaka Beach, right after Paradiso Taverna, the famous one with the tables and chairs set up for dining on the beach under the big tree. Agia Anna is a quick 12-15 minute walk to the north. Many restaurants there - we had a wonderful dinner at Palatia. There is a great little supermarket a few steps away heading south, as well as ATM machines and the Maragas Beach bus ticket office. The bus to Naxos town stops at that ticket office as well as at Paradiso Taverna, so only 1 or 2 minutes away. There are also many restaurants heading south on Plaka Beach. We ate at Yazoo Summer Bliss and Yucca - both were wonderful. The beach is just stunning - beautiful clear water, nice sand. There are sun-beds to rent if you so desire (30 Euros a day for 2 beds and umbrella - pay at the pool bar). The well-kept landscaped grounds are beautiful with walkways filled with gorgeous flowers and shrubs, and a playground for children (we did not see any kids during our stay). There is a huge well-kept pool (which we did not use) and a great pool bar with many lounge chairs. Our rooms were simple but lovely, with everything we needed. Very clean - housekeeping does a great job. The beds were a bit hard, but they will happily provide a mattress pad if requested. Both of our rooms had issues with the air conditioning not working, but the staff got right on it and after a few hiccoughs, it was fine. The buffet breakfast, overseen by Stella, was fabulous, with all kinds of delicious homemade dishes, baked goods, and jams. There is a lovely covered outdoor area where you eat breakfast. They will send out laundry for you and it comes back beautifully clean and folded the next day (12 Euros a bag). They will also call a taxi for you. Stella's daughter Marianna is in charge of the front desk and was also the contact for reservations and info. prior to our visit, and her son (I'm sorry I don't remember his name), took care of that air conditioning problem I mentioned. They were all very kind and welcoming and provided outstanding service. We had a wonderfully relaxing four days after being in busy Athens - it was just what we needed. Thank you Stella, Marianna, Stella's son, and the whole staff for your hospitality and a beautiful stay that we will treasure always. We would love to stay with you again! I have included pictures of the grounds, the beach, the breakfast, and our room with its view to the beach.

My family of five adults recently rented three upper-level rooms with sea views for a week at this hotel, which was recommended in our guidebook (Guide du routard). We had been to Naxos and Plaza Beach in the past, and we found that this hotel beats all of the others along the beach. The hotel is situated right in front of a relatively quiet part of the beautiful, long beach, and the views from the upper-level room balconies are lovely. The swimming pool is also quite big (the biggest we saw anywhere), with a large terrace, comfortable pool chairs, a great pool bar, and also lovely sea views (again rare for Plaka hotels). The hotel also rents beach beds on the beach. We especially appreciated the fact that with a five-euro deposit we could get beach/pool towels from the reception and have them replaced at any time we wished during our stay. The breakfasts at the hotel are some of the best we have seen anywhere. At the reception Mariana was also extremely efficient and helpful, for example in reserving taxis to and from the port and a private tour of the island for us. Finally, the hotel is a three-minute walk from a supermarket, and a short walk to several excellent restaurants. The hotel helped to make our holiday in Naxos virtually perfect.

We had a wonderful stay at Stella Naxos Island. It is conveniently placed midway between the small resort of Agia Ana and the bars and restaurants of Plaka beach and a 25 minutes bus ride from Naxos Town. It has a lovely Greek Taverna right next to it and it’s just 200 m from a supermarket and the place where you can buy bus tickets. The hotel is in spacious landscaped grounds with a really nice swimming pool and pool bar. The rooms are spacious and well equipped. However the best thing about this place is the friendliness of mum Stella, daughter Marianne and the rest of the staff. We were offered a choice of rooms when we arrived. The breakfast comprises homegrown fruits, homemade pastries and jams as well as the other things you’d expect at a breakfast buffet. The long sandy beach is just across the dirt track road and you can hire 2 sunbeds and umbrella for the day from €9-15. The sea is clear blue and gently sloping making it relatively safe to swim in. In the evening you get wonderful sunsets behind the neighbouring island of Paros. This is a place to which we would definitely return.

Stella Naxos was the perfect hotel for our family of four. We booked a one bedroom suite and it had everything we needed. The pool is amazing and had a kiddie pool as well. The breakfast is delicious! Easy to walk to many restaurants and a supermarket. The staff is very helpful and made our stay lovely. Would definitely stay here again in the future.
