Ostria Inn

The quiet eastern shore of Naxos is reason enough to stay at this boutique hotel, where the beach is essentially the front garden. Rooms and suites lean into the minimalist-chic Aegean playbook without apology, mixing handcrafted touches with modern fittings. Some look out to sea, others sit tucked in gardens, and a few come with plunge pools. The terrace restaurant, Alos, handles Cycladic cooking with locally sourced ingredients while the water sits just below.
