Kavos Studio or Marandi Naxos
 
Can anybody help me. Which hotel is the best between these three, is it Kavos Studio, Marandi Studio, or the Galini Hotel, cannot decide which hotel to stay in on our holiday to Naxos in July.

Your choice may be determined by which one has a vacancy. don't delay much longer.

I am also looking at Villa Marandi for early June (have a change in plans b/c can't get ferries to Folegandros on the dates we are traveling).

I'd love to hear any feedback. They have availability for our dates and I received a wonderful email from them.

Sorry I can't help with actual feedback, but we are staying at Kavos based on the reviews on Tripadvisor and the overall "good feeling" I got from their website and their manager, Barbara. Have a wonderful visit to Naxos. This will be our first time there and I can't wait.

Both Marandi and Kavos look very nice however you have to be aware of where they are located.
Marandi is near the airport which is about 3 to 4 KM from Naxos town. There will be minimal choices of tavernas nearby. A taxi, bus or a car will be required to get to shopping dining and populated beaches. On the other hand if a quiet get away from everything is what you are looking for this would be a good spot.

Kavos is near Aggia Prokopos on one the best beaches on the island. There is a small town there with several tavernas so there will be more choice for dinner. There will be vrtually no shopping available.

Galini is steps away from St Gerorge Beach and has two advantages. It is in Naxos town so you can can get to all the sites, nightlife shopping and tavernas that the town offers by foot but it is far enough away that it will be quiet at night.

Secondly it is situated steps from the beach so you can enjoy the beach life and the city life from one location.
