Bright and breezy, this villa on the outskirts of Naxos is the perfect place to kick back in the sun. There's nothing like relaxing in the jacuzzi pool on a lazy afternoon, savouring a glass of wine in the lounge chairs and digging into an alfresco feast as you watch the sunset. It's our definition of bliss, made even better by the light-filled interior that honours traditional Cycladic design.

When you're not chilling out on the terrace, set off and explore the island. There's a bakery, restaurant and taverna within walking distance so meals are sorted when you don't fancy cooking. For even more options, drive ten minutes into Naxos Town and grab a drink on the water. You're also ten minutes away from Maragkas Beach, where you can enjoy soft golden sand and crystal clear waters ideal for swimming.
