This summer (2024), I spent eight days at Ammothines Cycladic Suites. It was my first time staying here, and I have to admit it was a pleasant surprise. I’ve been visiting Naxos for 33 years straight, and typically, I prefer low-budget, cozy rooms-to-let. Luxurious retreats usually aren’t my style, but Ammothines made me rethink this a bit...maybe a sign that I am getting old! Anyway, if you're looking for a place where authentic Cycladic charm meets high-end luxury, Ammothines is where you need to be.
Elegant Accommodations with a Cycladic Twist
Ammothines blends traditional Cycladic architecture—whitewashed walls, smooth curves—with all the modern comforts you’d expect from a luxury hotel. Each suite is spacious, filled with natural light, and offers stunning Aegean Sea views. The private balconies are perfect for morning coffee with a side of sunrise.
Inside, you’ll find everything you need, from air conditioning to reliable Wi-Fi, and beautifully designed furnishings that make you feel like you’re in your own Cycladic villa.
Dining: Fresh, Local, and Unforgettable
Naxos is famous for its rich agricultural produce, and Ammothines takes full advantage of that. The restaurant serves dishes made from locally sourced ingredients, delivering an authentic taste of Naxos. The fresh seafood is a standout—I highly recommend trying the grilled octopus.
From a traditional Naxian breakfast to romantic dinners overlooking the sea, every meal at Ammothines feels special.
A Place to Truly Relax
What really sets Ammothines apart is how relaxing it is. The infinity pool has a stunning view of the Aegean, and it’s the perfect spot to spend an afternoon soaking up the sun. There’s also a wellness center where you can indulge in a massage or other treatments after a long day of exploring the island.
Plus, the hotel has private beach access. It’s a secluded stretch of sand just for guests, which is rare in Naxos, making it feel like your own slice of paradise.
Discovering Naxos from Ammothines
Ammothines is ideally located for exploring the rest of Naxos. You’re close to both the island’s best beaches and some of its most iconic cultural sites, like the Portara, the Temple of Apollo’s ancient gate. If you’re in the mood for more active adventures, the staff can help arrange windsurfing, hiking, or even horseback riding along the beach.
Service that Goes the Extra Mile
The service at Ammothines is top-notch. The staff go out of their way to make sure your stay is perfect, whether it’s organizing a private island tour or handling any special requests you have. You really feel like you’re part of the Ammothines family by the time you leave.
