Location is a little far along a main road (15mins walk) if you prefer to be in the center. But it was OK for us.

We loved staying at Archetypo. George is extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about Naxos. He gave us free transfers to and from the apartment. There are bikes to use for free and we rented a car direct from George which was much simpler than going to a rental place. The apartment was decorated lovely, and the terrace was a great space to have. Would be a nice touch to put some sunbeds or a bbq on the terrace as it's a big area. Breakfast was a lovely touch brought to your room, and so much variety of food! Location is a bit out of town (15-20mins walk) so if you don't mind walking then it's fine. Would definitely reccomend staying here!

A little far from the city center (walking distance as we didn't rent transportation), but with a car or ATV would not have been an issue at all

George and his family were exceptional hosts. George met us at the Port to pick us up (no charge), provided a mini tour of the city on our drive to the accommodation, and also stored our bags on checkout day before once again providing a free ride to our next ferry

There isn't anything we didn't like and we would return to this Villa if we visited Naxos again. However, there are some things we think were missing that would help elevate the villa even further. These missing things did not impact the quality of our stay or our opinion of the villa or family who run it. The things include: - Supply of more hangers (each room only had about 6 and we had to go out and buy more - we were a group of 4 who stayed for 8 nights, so 3 hangers per person wasn't enough). - Supply of 2 no. keys on arrival (we did ask for a second, and we're given one, but it would have been ideal if we'd have been given them both at the start). - A lock on the gate for extra security. - Supply of a tea towel in the kitchen (again this is something we went and bought). - An extra step on the pool ladder as you are getting in (my mum had recently just had a knee operation and she found it difficult to get in / out of the pool, and on one occasion when she was getting out she couldn't find the step and fell onto her operated knee). - Some of the screws within the wooden decking are protruding from the wood and could stump a toe or two. - Shower hose could have a higher hook to allow for easier showering. - Cubby hole in the bathroom (under the stairs) would be a perfect place for a washing machine.

We loved the villa and I was sad to leave. The bedrooms were super comfortable and every night we slept amazingly. I would love to know where they got the pillows so I could buy some for my home. The 2 bedrooms are on different sides of the villa allowing for extra privacy and despite the villa being on a main road you couldn't hear anything at night. Overall, we were really impressed with how well we slept. The kitchen was well equipped and had almost everything you needed. You had 2 no. coffee machines to choose from, the fridge was large, and there were plenty of plates and dishes. All the rooms were air conditioned and could be well ventilated using the windows. Every window had a retractable bug screen so you never needed to worry about bugs getting in. The shower had good water pressure, the bath drained quickly, and the toiletries supplied were nicely scented. The outside space was just divine and we spent a lot of time here, particularly around the pool. The space feels really private and you don't feel overlooked at any point. The pool was a good size for cooling off and playing around in for a bit. We loved having our breakfast on the outside table in the morning and the benched area was perfect for a game of chess. The hospitality of the owners was really good and every morning you got your breakfast basket delivered by a member on the family. On arrival the son checked us in and gave us a good overview of the island. The villa was very clean throughout and it could cleaned daily by the maid who did a very good job each time. Overall, we really felt at home in this villa and would love to return

Rent a car, if you don’t come by car in Naxos. Although the best beaches and Naxos Town are fairly manageable from the villa by walking & by bus - departure station at 15 minutes distance from the villa by foot, arrival at 5 minutes distance by foot, but the road is a little bit shabby and there are portions with no sidewalk - it could be sometimes a little bit difficult to get through the beaches, the Chora or villages in the middle of the island.

What can I say to reflect the reality as much as possible? Absolutely fantastic accommodation in Naxos, a vintage charm villa from the 1800’s that can easily accommodate 6-7 people, with all possible facilities at your disposal, an excellent, different breakfast delivered every morning on the terrace, a small, but more than enough private pool, fabulous and inviting courtyard that made the evenings memorable, superb staff that picked us up from the port and drove us there at our departure, great attention to details inside and outside the house, daily cleaning, top mattresses, and the feeling of recharging your batteries present all the way. So it was kind of perfect, could even say it was the best accommodation we have stayed in Greece - and we did try quite few - so glad we found it available on Booking :) and that we were able to spend some quality time there, in beautiful Naxos. Missing it already 🥹

We stayed at the villa run by the most welcoming family, and it was an outstanding experience. From the moment we arrived, their warm hospitality made us feel right at home. The villa was spotless and beautifully maintained, providing a perfect retreat. The family's local tips and attentive service made our stay truly exceptional. I highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a perfect getaway. 5/5!

Everything about our stay at Archetypo was incredible. The family were so accommodating and we really felt like part of the family for our stay. Mina and George were incredible and made the stay very special. George as a local was extremely knowledgable about pretty much everything and anything on the island and we got some really good recommendations for activities and locations which were away from the crowds. He was also more than happy to give us lifts places if he wasn't busy which made things really easy. The car rental offered was really reasonable and allowed us to get all over the island which was very special, and allowed us to check out the local villages and more remote locations. Breakfast was always delivered to our outdoor space whenever we wanted and was always delicious - a great way to start the day! Finally, the room was absolutely beautiful. It was really nicely decorated and felt very calm and peaceful. The hot tub was a great addition as well, and we enjoyed a few glasses of wine relaxing after a long day in there! Overall a really wonderful stay and would highly recommend!

We count our blessings: we felt overwhelming gratitude when we set foot in Archetypo Villa. While it's just a 15-minute walk to Kastro or the famous Saint George Beach, the Villa itself is nestled in a more authentic and less touristic part of Naxos Town (Chora) compared to the bustling port area; this gave us a genuine taste of Naxian life and provided a perfect backdrop for a truly immersive Greek experience. The Villa is a typical example of local architecture from 200 years ago. As designers ourselves, we were captivated by the Villa's unique character: distinct from the typical Cycladic white and blue, it blends its Byzantine flair, earthy tones and design-led decor with the island's natural beauty—a testament to the rich history of Naxos. But what sets Archetypo Villa apart is its soul—the Archetypo family. Mina, Stelios, Geiorge, and Adonis welcomed us with the kind of warmth quintessentially Greek. Their hospitality (or "philoxeníā" in Greek) went beyond pleasantries. From the moment we arrived, we were embraced with open arms and treated not as guests but as special family members. From George's kind pick-ups from the port to Mina's delightful breakfast spreads setting the tone for our day ahead, every gesture reflected their generosity and love for their guests. It's an age-old Greek tradition passed down through generations, and the Archetypo family embodies it beautifully. Archetypo Villa is not just a place to stay; it's an experience, a memory, a piece of heart left behind. To Mina, Stelios, George, and Adonis - thank you for making our visit unforgettable. We carry a part of Archetypo Villa in our hearts and can't wait to return.

Nothing. Everything was perfect! Would recommend getting a rental car, as the walk to down could be a bit long with small children.

Everything about the experience of staying at this property made us feel so special. The owners were incredibly welcoming and generous, from shuttling us from the port, to brining us food from their restaurant (which they would not let us pay for), to the incredible breakfasts made fresh each morning with special touches for our toddler. The pool and patio are gorgeous areas for relaxing and eating meals, along with the wonderfully decorated indoor space, complete with comfortable beds, ample space for relaxing, and well-functioning kitchen. Archetypo Villas made us fall in love with Naxos and we will be sure to return in the future.

We loved absolutely everything about our stay. The family, George, Antony, Mina and Stelios were unbelievable hosts. You cannot find more hospitable, kind and generous people than this family. They know what it means to take care of their guests and go the extra mile. The food was outstanding and the accommodation stunning!! This family did whatever they could to not disappoint. Wow, truly a gift from God and we can't wait to return. The location was fantastic. If we could, we would give them a 10 star rating. Thank you from our two families of six people each.

We wanted to stay somewhere special for the end of our holidays in Greece and Archetypo exceeded our expectations. George was very friendly and helped us with everything we needed. The room is spacious and beautifully decorated and the private jacuzzi was working as intended. Our personal highlight was the daily breakfast, which was out of this world amazing and got brought to our room at the time we wished. And all of that for a really fair price. We truly felt like queens for 3 days and can't wait to come back in the future!

We were absolutely blown away by the villa and by the fantastic hospitality of the lovely Kastellanos family. From the beautifully prepared breakfasts brought to us every morning (at a time of our choosing), to the fully serviced, impeccably clean villa - it was more than we had ever expected. The pool was perfect for our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 teens). The beaches in Naxos are stunning and the town is a v manageable 15 minute walk away - although it was hard to drag ourselves away from the villa. We will definitely be back!

The property is managed by a wonderful family.George and his mother were extremely helpful and accommodated every need we had.The property was located at the outskirts of Naxos chora which made it very easy to drive to the villages and the most famous beaches. The breakfast was amazing and was served at our room every day the hour that we dictated. The room was really spacious, clean and cycladic. We definetely recommend this property!

I'm a really picky customer usually... and yet can't find anything negative to say about Archetypo's!

We loved everything about our stay at the Archetypo's Family ! - Everyone took care of us so well (they came to pick us up from the port, and also dropped us when we left!). Also, the check-in was really great, George took the time to advise us on where to go, which places to see, how to walk from one point to another... - Breakfast was absolutely delicious and designed in a very handmade and authentic manner (fresh bakeries and fruits, organic and local products like honey, yoghurt...). - Good location (the walking distance from the city center is around 15 minutes) - And of course, there's the accommodation itself... A true heaven! Our room was brand new and very well decorated, we could feel extreme attention to detail. Not to mention the bed, which was particularly comfortable (as comfortable as any bed in any Sofitel!) In short: if you come to Naxos, you have to go there!

Not much. Be aware that it is about a 20 minutes walk from the centre of town.

Outstanding breakfast. We were met at the ferry and given a full introduction to the island. We were also given a lift back there (and were able to store our suitcases at their associated restaurant for a few hours). The apartment was comfortable with modern fittings. There is a large supermarket a few minutes walk away.

Stayed in September 2022

You do have to walk along a busy road without a footpath for a short spell. The bedroom is very well soundproofed though! We didn't have access to a pool, which was well advertised in advance but there is a fantastic beach (which George recommended) only a 5-10 drive away.

George and family were very friendly and collected us from the ferry. Breakfast was delicious, delivered to us every morning and different every day! Incredibly comfortable bed, such a great sleep. Really nice decor. Great shower. Good parking if you rent a car. 15 minute walk into town where there are loads of restaurants. Close also to supermarket.
