A

from the bustling town.
It has a two swimming pools plus a children’s pool, Jacuzzi, pool bar, pretty
café/bar/breakfast area, where also light meals are served, surrounded by trees

and a playground and playroom. It consists of nicely furnished studios for 2-3
persons, and apartments for up to 4 persons. All have 2 or three beds - one is
usually matrimonial, open plan or separate kitchenette, en suite shower/W.C.
with hairdryer, patio or balcony or terrace, TV, A/C, and direct dial phone.
Some rooms have sea view, some have view to the garden and the pool. It is about
400m from the sandy beach of Kastraki, where there are also some taverns. The
nearest bus stop is 800m (bus service 3-5 times a day) and the town is 20kms
away. 
This
excellent accommodation offers high standards, peace and quiet, wonderful views,
and some of the best beaches on Naxos nearby. They are built on the side of a
small hill overlooking the sea 17kms from the town of Naxos. At the top are two
semi-detached cottages, each comprising open-plan living room/kitchen, area with
cooking rings and fridge, double bedroom, tiled shower/W.C., and front patio
with lovely views and sunsets to Paros. There is a sofa bed in the living room
for a child. The three villas are detached and stepped down the hillside. They
are similar in design to the cottages with the addition of a second bedroom
(twin) and a sea view patio both front and rear one with barbecue. All units are
very nicely furnished, each with each own decor and colour scheme. Fixtures and
fittings are of a very good quality throughout. The swimming pool is set to one
side and measures 11m x 6 m. The hospitable owners, Zahia and Kamal, live above.
Vast expanses of sandy beach and a tavern can be found within a 10-minute walk,
and there is a bus service to Naxos Town from the road below (up to 5 times
daily), but a car hire would be recommended due to the secluded location.
Villas
with private swimming pools are rare on Naxos, so we are delighted to have found
one!
Situated
just outside the small farming village of Melanes, a little inland from Naxos
Town, Villa Guilena overlooks a beautiful rural valley. It is a two-storey house
built in Cycladic style. Entrance is into the L-shaped living room on the first
floor. This has an open-plan kitchen area to one side with a full cooker and a
fridge, a built-in sofa bed if required for a child, and a guest W.C off. French
windows lead onto a covered patio to the front with lovely rural views over the
valley and the hills opposite. 15 stairs lead down to the two ground floor
bedrooms - one double, one twin - each of which opens onto the covered poolside
patio. Also ground floor is the tiled shower room with W.C and washing machine.
Furnishings throughout the house are stylish and comfortable. The swimming pool
to the front measures approximately 45 sq. metres. A couple of other houses are
nearby but you are not overlooked. Melanes has a couple of taverns and small
grocery shops. Beaches and Naxos town are within a 15-minute drive, but this is
also fine walking country.
