I had an extended stay in Naxos, and the Polis is an excellent selection for anyone. Clean, well-operated with spacious rooms; hot water; excellent ac; friendly staff. The morning breakfasts were very good quality and selection, and the coffee was piping hot. If you are looking for a nicely located hotel, close to the beach, very nice restaurants, but away from the hustle and bustle of the port area, then the Polis deserves your strongest considerations.

Beautiful hotel right by the beach. We had an updated room which was gorgeous and comfortable. Hotel staff very helpful and let us stay until 3 at checkout because it was end of high season. Pool beautiful and steps from beach. Delish included breakfast.
