18 Grapes Hotel

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

Eighteen Grapes is incredible. The food is delicious especially for a hotel. The staff is very friendly and accommodating but not in a fake way. The rooms are large and inviting; housekeeping very responsive. It’s a short walk to town. I really can’t say enough about this hotel.

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.

18 Grapes is a boutique modern, clean , hotel with a beautiful pool , excellent food (breakfast especially with fab Latte every morning) We had 2 connecting room in middle of hotel . The service is excellent and the staff puts in 100 percent especially the bar and restaurant staff . It is a 10 min walk to village with coffee shops some tavernas and main busier beach. KEEP in mind, it is a boutique hotel and not on the beach as in many Naxos hotels. But 15 min ride to NAXOS town for restaurants you must check out (AVATON, Doukato etc..) and 5-10 min ride to other beach clubs . We enjoyed Nomad ( beach beautiful ). Be sure to venture off to other beach, Cooking and olive press tour.

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,
