18 Grapes Hotel

This is an excellent boutique hotel. The rooms are nice, the pool is nice, the restaurant is very good, the breakfasts are great. The waitstaff are particularly friendly. We hope to return next year.

We stayed here during the shoulder season. It rained 3 days just prior to our arrival. The weather for us was amazing: sunny, warm days, and cool evenings/nights. This small, simplistically sophisticated hotel was wonderful. We were warmly greeted by the owners who definitely take pride in their business. The rooms were very spacious and decorated in neutral, relaxing decor. Our patio had breathtaking sea views. There were plenty of poolside loungers and daybeds; not a single guest “saving” chairs all day with their stuff which was quite refreshing. The only negative for me was the on site gym. It was very small and a bit crowded with equipment. I think I was the only one who ever used it during our stay. iVery short (3-5 min) walk to the beach with plenty of restaurants, cafes, taverns, a grocery store, gym, and laundry mat. The breakfast at the hotel was really good with fresh fruit and huge portions. Christina was cheery and warm, and really took good care of us during our stay. We would definitely stay here again

18 Grapes is a beautiful hotel with a friendly, helpful staff. The daily breakfasts were great as well. While we had a great stay, I will suggest that the rooms were slightly overpriced. We had a room with our own hot tub outside, which was lovely, but again, not sure it was worth the price. The website makes the property look slightly larger and suggests sea views throughout - at just the right angle, you can see water, but not from the pool area. The location was outside of Naxos Town, a plus, and a short walk to multiple beaches and several restaurants. I have nothing bad to stay about the hotel or Naxos - the Greek Islands are amazing, but I was still left with the feeling that the price point was a little high, particularly compared to other similar places we stayed on other islands.

Amazing view a rooftop restaurant but very windy during the month of September Lovely staff with great suggestions. Meal portions are very generous, lovely restaurant but a bit expensive.

Beautiful hotel and sparkling clean room! All the staff from the receptionists, housekeeping, and breakfast crew were outstanding. The hotel manager also greeted us every morning to check in and make sure we had everything we needed during our stay. Best hotel breakfast we have ever had! Highly recommend the Naxian Eggs Benedict and the Açai Bowl. We booked the Comfort Room with private pool, and it was perfect for our honeymoon. Crisp linens, plush towels for the pool and beach, and Nuxe toiletries made our stay very comfortable. Excellent communication with the concierge through WhatsApp, and they were able to arrange a car rental and our ferry port transfers for us. The hotel also offered free transfers to Gorgona (owned by the hotel owner’s father), and 10% off our meal - food was delicious and the portions were very generous. Highly recommend the 18 Grapes Hotel for couples or families.

Sorry to be a contrarian as the reviews look good until now, but we just got back from visiting this property and were incredibly disappointing as their marketing and pics and website totally misrepresents who they are and what they do. The pics make it look like it is right at the beach and that they have every possible amenity. In truth, they are a good 10-15 min walk to the beach where they don't have any amenities as most of the other hotels are on the beach, and have locked up the entire beach with rows of private chairs and service for their guests and will rent the back chairs to outsiders like 18 grapes guests only if available. (we were 5 rows back on beach). The views from hotel and restaurant are either non existent or our room (which was one of the highest end rooms) looked over a parking lot where there were broken down old cars with the ocean way off in the distance. The work out room is an old tiny musty closet size room with no windows and the "spa" is also nearby in a basement and is very tiny and not the least bit luxurious. They got our orders wrong at breakfast, the steam in our shower would take an hour to fill up so we didn't use it, and the hot tub on our deck looked old and unappealing. They talk about a vineyard on their site but this is a good mile ++ away and is a seperate vineyard owned by the owners Dad and is not part of 18 Grapes or has anything to do with it I usually write positive reviews but for this hotel we feel we overpaid and were incredibly disappointed in the whole experience. If they were honest on their website and with their marketing we definitely would not have booked and we definitely do not recommend this place to others. Buyer beware,
