Villa Portara

About this property

Nestled on a tranquil hillside in the Orkos area of Naxos, Villa Portara offers an idyllic retreat just 350 metres from one of the island's most stunning beaches. As you approach, the villa's traditional Cycladic architecture naturally blends with the surrounding landscape, where olive trees and native shrubs offer a serene backdrop. The stone walls and whitewashed surfaces perfectly capture the essence of the island’s charm, making you feel instantly at home.

Step inside the main house and you’re greeted by an open, airy living room that’s both inviting and spacious. The indoor kitchen, fully equipped for preparing meals, makes it easy to cook up a feast after a day of exploration. As you move to the upper floor, you'll find a small bathroom tucked away for convenience. Descending to the lower level, two cosy bedrooms await, each featuring ensuite bathrooms, offering both privacy and comfort. The large windows in every room frame breathtaking views of the Aegean Sea, allowing the beauty of the landscape to be a constant presence.

Each of the two independent guest houses is designed with the same care, offering a peaceful escape with a bedroom and ensuite bathroom. Here too, the vistas are simply stunning, ensuring that every moment spent indoors feels connected to the natural surroundings.

Outside, the villa truly comes to life. A large pergola provides a shaded space for outdoor dining, with a table that comfortably seats ten. The fully equipped outdoor kitchen and an organic garden, brimming with seasonal fruits and vegetables, invite you to enjoy fresh, home-grown ingredients. The garden seamlessly leads to the private swimming pool, where you can soak up the sun, unwind, and take in the views. Palm trees and loungers around the pool add to the tropical feel, making it the perfect spot to relax.

As the day winds down, the sunsets at Villa Portara are simply magical, with the sun setting directly into the Aegean Sea. Whether you're lounging by the pool, strolling to the nearby beach, or enjoying a home-cooked meal with loved ones, the villa offers a peaceful and picturesque setting for your Naxos getaway.
