I can not recommend our stay at Apricot and Sea Luxury Villas highly enough. The view is outstanding. This was important to us and did not disappoint. The staff were fantastic. We did not expect our apartment to be serviced daily, but it was. Our host Dimitris was always ready to help, never looked harassed and helped with any need we had. Our visit was for a special occasion, and when we entered our room, we had a gift basket with wine and treats for the occasion, including a delicious cake. We loved the location. Some of the more popular beaches may be a little easier to access, but they were packed with people. We much preferred the choice of beaches around here, Mikri Vigla, Orkos, and Alyko. It was definitely quieter and more relaxing here. The accommodation is on a hill, which would be a bit of a walk without a car, but that height is what gives the outstanding views. We enjoyed a different stunning sunset looking out over Paros every night. Located approximately a 25-minute drive from the port. To be honest, whether we had stayed here or in the town area, we would recommend a car. Naxos is lovely to explore, and although there is a bus service, it is not regular. Hiring a car allowed us to tour the picturesque mountain villages (which we definitely recommend), pick whatever beaches took our fancy, and drive in and out of town easily. Only 2-3 minutes drive from 2 mini-markets and plenty of bakeries and restaurants to choose from.. The cheapest and largest supermarket is in town about a 20-minute drive away. Our room was very clean and comfortable and had everything we could want. The pool was great, also with outstanding views. The only one downside was that although the villa we were in had its own outside area, but it was a little more public than we expected, but as there were plenty of other places to choose if we wished for a little more privacy, it was never a problem. Lots of seating around the pool and in the outdoor kitchen.

This was truly one of the best places we've ever stayed. The apartments are stunning—decorated with impeccable taste and a serene, welcoming atmosphere. We were genuinely surprised by the spaciousness of our apartment, and the amenities are on another level—everything you could possibly need, and more. The location is ideal: a peaceful and quiet area, yet just a 2-minute drive or a 5-minute walk to great restaurants, supermarkets, and beautiful beaches. It’s the perfect balance of tranquility and convenience. What truly made our stay exceptional was our host, Dimitri. He went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, offering helpful recommendations and always being available. Hosts like him are rare—he made a real difference in our holiday experience. The view from the property is simply breathtaking. Waking up to it each morning felt like a privilege, and the sunsets were nothing short of magical. We wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone. Thank you, Dimitri, for everything—you made our stay unforgettable. We’ll definitely be coming back soon!

Andriana was extremely hospitable. She helped book us taxis when we needed them, created a romantic evening with my newlywed husband with roses, candles, champagne and cake. She also booked us pedicures that came to our room! My father in law was obsessed with the cookies and they didn’t hesitate to share their recipe. The property itself is STUNNING. It’s extremely spacious and the views of the sunset just don’t get any better. It’s very cleanly. Just a heads up for other possible inquiries, I had asked if the pools were private and we were told it was shared with one other villa, however there were multiple people using the pool and the area throughout our stay. It wasn’t just one other group. During sunset, people came up onto our patio and used the tables and seating area for our villa. We didn’t mind as we are social people but if you’re looking for something more private this may not be the right room to stay at. Maybe the one upstairs?

Nothing

It was absolutely perfect! Our room had a gorgeous sea view, and was equipped with everything and more. We even got a welcome basket with wine, homemade biscuits,cheese and desserts - a very thoughtful touch! The pool was scenic and a lovely temperature. Like some others have said, the photos don’t do the place justice, as it is breathtaking when you see it in real life. We will 100% stay again.

Nothing that we disliked about the property, but you definitely need a car if you’re coming here, however, if you come to Naxos without renting a car then may as well not come at all as it’s such a big island with so much to see.

The manager was great! He communicated with us and was waiting for us upon our arrival. He was quite helpful and even helped us with some of our bags. He explained everything about the apartment and recommended several places for dinner in the area. He even looked after our clothes on the drying rack when it was windy and we were leaving for the day. The apartment was spacious and beautiful, the view was especially beautiful as well.

If the weather had been a little warmer, it would have been great. But, that is of course nothing that Apricot could have controlled!!

Apricot & Sea is a wonderful place, if you are looking for spaceness, a relaxed athmosphere and high standards for an individualistic stay to explore the island on your plans. Our maisonette Emery had everything your are looking for during a perfect holiday stay: from a phantastic sea view, a semi private pool, which was super clean and most of the time private, to the many mindful details you can find in the appartment. On top of our beautiful experience we made, was the outstanding friendly and professional staff of Apricot & Sea. We would especially like to mention Alexandra, who was there for us from the first to the last second of our stay to make our vacation even more enjoyable. And the very special thing is that you can feel that everything she does is really done with heart and soul. Many thanks for that!!

The accomodation was very clean and aesthetically pleasing, with small touches considered by the hosts to improve the guests experience at their property. Alexandra was absolutely lovely and very accommodating, many thanks to her. Views were incredible from the property - would absolutely recommend without a doubt! A stones throw away from the beach and very relaxing stay at Apricot and Sea.

The only small negative would be the location in the sense that there is very little within close walking distance - it is a 40 minute round trip to the closest small supermarket and around an hour to Plaka, where there are more ammenities, restaurants and bars etc. But this distance can also be considered a postive thing too, as the accommodation is very peaceful in the evenings and the view is undisturbed and beautiful - we would just recommend hiring a car if you can, as it was quite the trek for meals out in the evenings.

Very clean, fully appointed and Dimitri is awesome and attentive.

One A/C struggled to keep up and the dryer doesn’t work. These are not dealbreakers just things to note as I know they will be repaired. I think the property could benefit from having some things in the rooms for guests to borrow like snorkels or flippers. A little store inside the check in area with cokes and waters would be very convenient. I would issue two towels per person because they are always wet.

We stayed in a family villa which was perfect for four. A/C worked well, daily housekeeping, laundry & kitchen - all great. Simple but nice. Nicely located along the west coast - could drive to all of the beaches north and south easily. Wonderful staff - so helpful and friendly, and gave great recommendations. Other guests were pretty quiet so we didn’t hear much from anyone else. Very good value and nice to stay away from the crowds. It’s a cross between a hotel and an apartment, which is what we were looking for.

The view from the apartment and pool area was incredible.Plenty of deckchairs to lay on a beautiful outdoor area to relax and enjoy. The hosts were super friendly and helpful. It was a short walk down the hill to a stunning beach and 10min walk to a mini grocery shop. The resident cat was gorgeous too.

It was a bit too far from the main town, about 15mins drive but no problem if you had a hire car.
