Naxos is not just about beaches and sunsets - it's also about its mountain villages, stone-built homes, flower-filled courtyards, and timeless traditions.

During your stay at Kalea Luxury Villas, we invite you to explore the most charming villages on the island. All of them are easily reachable by car and offer a true glimpse into the authentic Cycladic way of life.

Apeiranthos - The Marble Village of Naxos

Distance from Kalea Luxury Villas: approx. 27 km / 35 minutes by car

Built entirely from marble and rich in history, Apeiranthos is one of the island's most unique and beloved villages. Influenced by Venetian architecture, it's home to five small museums, narrow stone alleys, and local shops with traditional products such as raki and artisan cheeses. It's a place where authenticity meets elegance.

Halki - History and Art in the Heart of Tragea

Distance from Kalea Luxury Villas: approx. 18 km / 25 minutes by car

Once the capital of Naxos, Halki stands out for its neoclassical mansions, vibrant art galleries, and the historic Vallindras distillery producing citron liqueur. Don't miss the 11th-century Byzantine church of Saint George Diasoritis - and make time to relax with a coffee or a local dessert in the village square.

Filoti - Traditional Life Beneath Mount Zas

Nestled on the slopes of Mount Zas, Filoti is the largest village on the island and a vibrant example of Naxian mountain life. Enjoy walking through its lively streets, sampling local cuisine in family-run taverns, and starting your hike to the highest peak in the Cyclades.

Kinidaros - Music, Tradition & True Island Life

Distance from Kalea Luxury Villas: approx. 13 km / 20 minutes by car

Kinidaros is known for its deep-rooted musical tradition and its welcoming atmosphere. A visit here means delicious home-cooked meals, quiet walks through rustic alleys, and perhaps even a spontaneous traditional music session in one of the local cafes.
