Excellent Family vacation!
We were exploring the island as a family. This hotel is in an amazing location, just a 3 min walk from the beach and a bunch of restaurants! It is super family friendly, the service was excellent and it was very clean.

Good resort, but far from Chora
Good resort. Close to the beach but far from the main town (approx 20 mins drive). They say the bus comes every 30 minutes however the reality is it's actually every hour which can make it harder to plan to get into town. (Approx 40 minutes past the hour into town). The pool was nice and the staff were helpful organising our 4x4 tour and the directions.

Response from Dimitris on Sep 11, 2020
Dear Elliot, First of all, we would like to thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Lagos Mare Hotel and we really hope you had a great time in Naxos. We would appreciate you to allow us to address your remarks and place them in context for the sake of the impression you may convey to other guests. We would like to thank you for commending our devoted and highly efficient staff members who constantly strive to provide the highest quality and most personalized service. Moreover, we are glad that you enjoyed the tour that our staff organized specially for you. With regards to the location of Lagos Mare Hotel, we would like to inform you that our hotel is located at Agios Prokopios area (not at Chora) close to the best beach of the island. Only 5 kilometres from Naxos town or else “Chora”and 2 kilometres from the Airport. The frequency of the bus, unfortunately, is not something that we can handle as this service is provided by the municipality of Naxos. However, this depends on the period as during peak season the bus comes every 15 minutes (depending on the traffic). In closing, we would like to thank you once again for your feedback, as we value both your compliments and constructive criticism in order to continuously improve our services. We hope to welcome you again at Lagos Mare Hotel and surpass all your expectations. Kindest Regards Dimitris Apostolopoulos

Friendly clean hotel.
Hotel was well situated close to the beach and numerous restaurants. Hotel staff were amazing, so friendly and helpful and always had a smile. Facilities were great and the hotel pool and the two pools in the neighbouring hotel were exceptionally clean and not busy, some times we had all three pools to ourselves. The food was very good and everyone enjoyed the buffet breakfast as there was something for all. The room was clean and sufficient and throughly cleaned every day. The beaches were good, especially if you walk away from the main area. The sea was crystal clear.

Too remote from the beach
Nice clean hotel, but too remote from beaches ... all are a drive away, which is a real pity as Naxos is a beautiful island. The view from our room was out onto what I would call a shack and this spoiled the whole ambience. People were very friendly but for these reasons I would not return.

Highly Recommended
This is a beautiful hotel on a beautiful island. The staff is very friendly, and the breakfast is superb, containing local, naxian delicacies. The facilities are not very large in general, but the modest size of the hotel creates a nice friendly vibe. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with a nice terrace where one can could the sea. It takes about 7 minutes to walk to the beach, which is also suberb, although it doesn't have a pedestrian path, which is a shame - one has to walk on the road itself.

Hotel in the middle of nowhere
It takes approximately 15 minutes to walk from the traffic road (which does not have any pavement for the pedestrians) in order to the reach the beach nearby. So, the hotel is not as close to the sea as it is shown in the photos and texts. I strictly recommend not to pay any additional fee for "sea facing" room as the sea is km away and between the hotel and the sea is mid quality settlement which I dare you would like to see.

Lovely hotel near the beach and restaurants
We stayed in the sea view suite with jacuzzi and would definitley recommend it! The room was very spacious, clean and modern. The hotel staff were very friendly and their service was excellent, helping with anything they could. The hotel is also close to 3 lovely sandy beaches. We recommend hiring a bycicle and visit Ag Anna and Plaka beaches for a fine sand beach. There are some nice restaurants within 2-5 min but you can also catch a bus from outside the hotel to Naxos Town for a more busy nightlife.

Good hotel
This is a fairly nice hotel. My score may be affected by the fact I came to stay here from a 5star luxury hotel. The premises of this hotel are beautiful. Well kept grass area, nice swimming pool and very good breakfast. Location is good but not excellent. Rooms are good in size but a bit dull. Balconies are extremely small and the view was an abandoned building on the side I was. Pretty much the same for everybody except for the ones staying at the suites side. Overall it is a nice place to stay.

Beautiful hotel a short walk from the beach
My family and I stayed at this hotel for one night while island hopping in Greece. The hotel was about a 15 minute cab ride from the ferry making it pretty convenient. Every staff member that we encountered was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. The buffet breakfast was probably the best that we had while in Greece (we stayed at 6 hotels in various places) and was served next to the amazingly beautiful pool. The beach was about a 10 minute walk down the road along with several shops and restaurants. There were no sidewalks (which seemed to be common after visiting several of the islands) so you do have cars, mopeds and quads whizzing by you. There is a bus stop right across the street from the hotel that will take you into the town for a few dollars. It was very easy and safe to use. We used the bus systems on every island we visited and we never had any problems. Out of all the islands we visited (Naxos, Santorini, Mykonos and Syros) this island was the most friendly and relaxing. Overall, we really loved this hotel and wished we had booked a few more nights here!

Close to the beach
The hotel is conveniently located close to the beach. Free wifi is available in the lobby, but you can get it in your room if you are close to pools. The dinner was surprisingly tasty as it did not taste like local food. There are not much views from the hotel. To get to the town, you need to take a bus or taxi as walking is too far. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. It was a good stay.

Mordern hotel with a bright airy feeling to it.
We stayed for 9 nights in the hotel at the beginning of june, most nights they only had 4/5 others rooms taken which was great for us as all the staff you to how us on a first name basis, which was lovley each morning to ask james would like some fresh orange juice! The hotel was very clean and well looked after, probaly the most mordern hotel in that area. The beach was a 7/10 minute walk away, down hill to get there. On the way down you had everthing you needed, shops, cafes, car hire etc... We had a sea view which was great each morning to look out at from the distance. Only a very few things to say could be nicer, the mattress was quite hard, but i think that is the case in most of greece and for the number of guests that stayed the breakfasts could be made to order. Would stay again and if you want a nice quite location this is precfect and go into Naxos town for a night or 2 out if you want more life.

Photos don't match the hotel
As other reviews have said - the hotel doesn't live up to its photos - it's much smaller and not as fancy. This is a shame because it's an okay hotel. I also expected more for the price. Service was a little too laidback and not always that helpful. Great location though and nice pool.

Relatively new hotel close to beach
Relatively new hotel that is about a 7 to 10 min walk from the beach. The breakfast was very good. The main town is about 3 miles from the hotel and the local bus stops outside the hotel. The hotel van can be hired for arrivals or departures but they charge 15 euro, which is 2 to 3 times the cost of a taxi. Our balcony was only 3 ft (1 meter) wide and it faced a vacant hotel. If you stood on the balcony there was an angled view of the ocean in the distance. There is a laundromat (White Snow Laundry) 2 blocks from the hotel that will wash and dry a large load of clothes for 8 euros (half what the hotel charges).

Could not have asked for more
I booked this hotel after only reading the positive reviews and was quite concerned after reading the negative ones--i probably would have cancelled the reservation but for their no cancellation policy. Boy am I glad I didn't. The hotel was totally great. They picked us up at the ferry, our room was amazing-had ocean views and our very own hot tub, 2 balconies and steps away from a beautiful stretch of beach. The food at the restaurant was awesome--so much so that we ate there both nights because my husband wanted to try everything on the menu (we have NEVER done this and we travel alot). The front desk staff were unbelievably sweet and are even sending me some shoes I left via post (at no charge). AND it was downright affordable. My only regret is that we didn't get to stay there another day. The hotel is not in the main town but the area it is in IS lovely. Lots of tavernas and whatnot. You will want to rent a car for 25 dollars a day and drive around the island anyway.

Naxos is AWESOME!
The hotel is new and super nice. The only complaint I had was the air conditioner seemed a little weak - but that's an island thing. The service and the staff were great. They upgraded us to a room with a view. It's about a 5 minute walk to the beach where there are restaurants and where we rented a 4-wheeler. It's 10 mins from the airport and about the same from the port. Great place.

Not a bad place to stay. . .
The hotel's website and photos make the place appear larger than it really is. Our triple room was a tad minimal. . .but on the plus side the hotel's close proximity to the beach and friendliness of staff made up for it. A very quiet and restful stay.

Nice - but a few issues
I thought the hotel was nice. The rooms were ok - beds were not as fancy as I would have liked. Showers were small, and once the toilet didn't work, and once the A/C wasn't working. A little far from the beach - maybe 10 minute walk. In retrospect, I think I would rather stay in Naxos Town - though the Agios Propkios beach is great. Agios Propkios is certainly quiet relative to Naxos Town, but Naxos as a whole is not that big, so it's not like Naxos Town is New York City. Breakfast was also mediocre at the hotel.

Il personale è stato molto carino in tutto il soggiorno, colazione buona. Posizione a 500/600 Mt dal mare ma noi abbiamo noleggiato il motorino per visitare le varie spiagge di Naxos e andare a Chora (per chi vuole c'è anche la fermata bus praticamente fuori all'albergo). Una sera abbiamo cenato lì e la cucina era davvero ottima. Le pecche erano: 1) la doccia perché non scendeva bene l'acqua 2)il mantenimento della struttura perché alcune cose era rovinate (tipo la porta del bagno era mal messa) 3) letti non molto comodi 4) pulizia e biancheria non eccezionali Ricapitolando, il soggiorno è stato buono ma, considerando i difetti, l'albergo non corrisponde a un 4 stelle e non vale i soldi che chiedono.

worse hotel ever
This is the worse hotel I have ever stayed. They claim to be a 4 stars hotel but actually it is more like a 2 stars hotel at the price of a 4 stars hotel. I booked this hotel on hotel.com and paid 189 euros a night for a standard room with sea view. When we arrived at our room we were shocked. The room is outdated, the bed and the pillow are hard as rock and the sea view is more like a dumpster view than sea view ( See pictures by yourself) Since we did not like our room right from the start I paid for an upgrade thinking it will be better and we will have a pleasant stay. The receptionist recommended the the suite room and sold us that room had a Jacuzzi. Of course you have to pay for the extra charge for the room before you can see it. So we paid. The room was definitely bigger but poorly and outdated furnished. The Jaccuzy is just a Joke and the view, well we have the same view of the dumpster and the sea far away. Now for the service. Well let put it this way, the owners are pretentious and they treat the few staffs (One receptionist, two waiters and one chambermaid) more like slave than employees. During our 4 night stay we saw the same waiters from breakfast (starting at 8 am), all day and night (if they lucky they finish service at around midnight). This what I called modern slavery. I would like to disclose that I am also a business owner in the service industry in France and to me I cannot image doing this to my employees. This Unacceptable and I don't know what is

Dear valuable guests, In response to the review received from Mr. Guerin, we would like to clarify the below. First of all, we would like to mention that we operate since 2006 and it is the first time that we are facing a guest like this one!!! The rudeness and the offensiveness of Mr. Guerin to Lagos Mare's staff was something that we never faced before. Of course we have to handle every guest with understanding and sympathy as we always do, however it is impossible to act this way with someone that cursing and insulting the staff of our hotel because there was a charge for their coffees! Mr. Guerin "forgot" to mention his behavior to our staff! He used phrases that we can not write down or express through here just because we informed him that the breakfast has ended at 11:00am. He was demanding free breakfast and free drinks at 11:20. We offered him complimentary breakfast, even our cuisine was closed by that time and we tried to explain to him that our hotel like all the hotels globally has rules. As far as the price is concerned, we offered the guest upon arrival an upgrade with extra daily charge of 30 euros instead of 70 and he accepted that AFTER he inspected the Suite. The feedback given from his side to the reception was that he liked the room and he would like to proceed with the upgrade. After cursing and insulting the staff Mr. Guerin felt sympathy for them and offered them job to his restaurant! We respect our staff as we respect our valuable guests. Our staff is the most valuable asset of our hotel and our online reviews reflect that, something that Mr. Guerin mentioned as "Sh@t people" and "f@#$% service"! We invest in higlhy qualified professionals in all our positions with ongoing training throughout the years and this is the reason that the majority of our staff works for us many years. It is not worth to mention that Mr. Guerin is lying about the working hours and the number of our staff, as our people do not work for more than 9 hours daily and they are all very well paid, because we respect their efforts! The photo taken from Mr. Guerin is zoomed and showing Agios Prokopios Village. A typical cycladic village. Lagos Mare Hotel is located 350m away from the beach (Agios Prokopios) one of the best beaches in Europe. As we take under serious consideration every feedback received, we always try to improve ourselves. However, this specific review can not be evaluated as the person made that was aiming only to harm our reputation for 2 coffees that he wouldn't like to pay for. We hope your staff Mr. Guerin to be as happy as ours and treat them as we do!
