This 21-room upper-middle-range property is small and scenic, with direct access to a quiet section of Plaka Beach. Its slightly secluded location makes for peaceful surroundings, but also means that it’s a 20 minute-drive from downtown Naxos and the ferry port. Beautiful Cycladic architecture, gorgeous gardens, an outdoor beach/pool bar, and the personable vibe of the family-run hotel give it both a romantic and mellow atmosphere that guests love. Standard and Deluxe Rooms run small, and have showers that spill water, but the spaces are airy, with balconies, mini-fridges, and free Wi-Fi. On-site amenities are limited to free breakfast and yoga/massage sessions for fees, but activities and excursions are easily arranged by the staff. Closer to the city center, Nissaki Beach Hotel Naxos has the same boutique feel but it isn’t beachfront.

This 12-room, upscale hotel offers a lovely, peaceful environment where guests experience the warmth of Greek hospitality. Quaint grounds have a natural feel, while interiors are chic and beautiful. Stylish, mostly white rooms offer separate sitting areas and kitchenettes or kitchens, though they lack microwaves, some cookware, and sufficient dishes. Fridges, coffeemakers, robes, and rainfall showers add comfort, while furnished outdoor spaces offer pretty vistas. Rooms have either private or shared pools. The family of owners provide delicious meals -- including an excellent free breakfast buffet -- at the on-site restaurant. With little to do on-site or in the surrounding area, guests will need to plan for transportation to visit the rest of the island. Those looking for a hotel closer to the beach and sites should check out Naxos Island Hotel on the coast in Agios Prokopis.

This charming upscale hotel is situated a minute's walk from the beach and close to several dining options and shops. The highlight is the rooftop which offers stunning views over the island and is home to a beautiful infinity pool, bar, and restaurant. This is where the included breakfast buffet is served in the mornings, plus the restaurant is open for late lunch and dinner. The hotel also has a spa with steam rooms, saunas, and whirlpool tubs, as well as a hair and nail salon and a small gym (but it doesn't offer many machines). The 16 rooms are a bit average when it comes to decor, but most have balconies, some with whirlpool tubs. For chicer rooms, check out the upscale Naxian Collection, but it's more secluded.

A peaceful, friendly, two-pearl hotel surrounded by a large garden, the Prince of Lillies is a popular option with vacationing older couples and families who want a budget-friendly base for spending time at the beach or sightseeing nearby. The 40 guest rooms are fairly spacious, if basic in style, and have balconies or patios, but mattresses are hard and air-conditioning costs extra. The hotel has a private pool and a small bar/restaurant, as well as a seasonal kindergarten. It's located a 20-minute drive from Heraklion, but within easy reach of the airport and Karteros’ restaurants, bars, and sandy beaches.

This 338-room, mid-range resort is a quiet, secluded spot perfect for a relaxing vacation on Kos’s northern coast. The water park and beautiful pools are a highlight, and include a huge wave pool and a quiet pool. There are also spa services, a kids’ club, tennis courts, and a dated fitness room. All-inclusive dining receives positive reviews, plus a la carte restaurants offer Greek and Italian cuisine on a rooftop terrace. Rooms are modest, but clean and comfortable, with balconies, TVs (sometimes tube-style), and mini-fridges. The pebbly, narrow beach is disappointing for beach lovers and the sea is only accessible via stairs over a rocky shoreline. For a hotel with a bit more panache, check out Astir Odysseus Kos Resort and Spa for its stylish decor and more upmarket amenities.
