Greece Retreat September 2023
What a perfect setting for an intimate retreat in Naxos at Villa Tranquilla! Everything about the house came as advertised. The house was very clean and up to date. Matthiaos was the perfect host greeting us and providing a tour of the house once we arrived. He was beyond gracious, offering us rides if we so needed and stopping over to bring clean towels and emptying our trash whenever we needed
The proximity to the beach is such a bonus for this house. It's a rocks through from the end of Plaka Beach. If you're looking for privacy away from the beach bars and a bit busier sections of Plaka, then this area is perfect. There's a great local restaurant walking distance where you can find reasonably priced homemade food called Maistrali. Nothing fancy whatsoever but it's everything you'd imagine from a family run Greek restaurant in Greece!
We very much enjoyed the amenities such as the pool, jacuzzi and the large deck space for lunch, dinner, sunsets and our daily yoga sessions. We utilized the pillows for more cushioning during yoga which helped with a hard surface
I would recommend a car rental or atv if you're looking to get a few things from a local supermarket or the local bakery down the street. Lagogiannis makes incredible pastries and coffee., a short walk or quick atv ride away. They do get backed up with limited work staff yet the quality is worth the wait.
I would certainly come back to Villa Tranquilla for another stay in Naxos with a group! Our group of 11 people slept comfortably in the 6 bedrooms. Each room had it's own bathroom for privacy which I thought was a nice touch for privacy!
