Great little get away from city life!

Beyond words how beautiful this property and area is. Off the beaten path but well worth it. Astrid was so sweet and accommodating. She brought us fresh vegetables and even fed us some grilled goat which was delicious! The view is spectacular! Definitely recommend this place! 5 stars in our book!

Peace and tranquillity

We stayed in early june. The villa is fine for 2- the sea is very clise- you can swim off the rocks in a few minutes walk. You are near Moutsouba 5 mins by car. It hss a couple of tavernss- very quiet in June. The host gave us wine and amazing bread, as well as veg from the organic garden. If you want to escape- its the place.

Next to the blue, blue Aegean Sea

This is the place you want to be if you want to slow down, be in nature, and be away from tourists. The houses are right next to the blue, blue Aegean Sea. I couldn’t get enough of the view. Astrid and Nicholas were wonderful hosts. Be sure to drive to Panermos Bay- easy drive and beautiful place to swim. Be sure to fill up your gas tank as there are no gas stations in Moutsouna or nearby. This was my favorite part of my trip to Greece.

Just outstanding

It’s hard to imagine a more beautiful spot. It’s all the way across the island from the port of Naxos, about an hour’s drive. The house itself was charming, with a view not to be believed. The little beach was steps outside the door. There’s a small town on the water less than 10 minutes away with the most lovely and friendly taverna which serves seafood that they’ve caught themselves. Astrid was a wonderful host, we’d find vegetables from her garden outside our door every morning. We absolutely fell in love with the island, the people, the cuisine…we can’t wait to return.

Serenity on the east side of Naxos

If you really, truly want to get away from it all - if you prize authenticity and nature over a manicured hotel/beach experience - if you would enjoy having hosts who bake you bread in a wood fired oven, bring you not only lettuce from their garden, but also local wine and even roses - this is your place. Two kilometers down a dirt road from the tiny port town of Moutsouna, host Astrid's four cottages at Azalas are meticulously clean and organized inside. They overlook the Aegean, and while sitting on your front porch the only sounds you are likely to hear are the waves, the birds, and the occasional farm animal. The property shows signs of being the working farmstead that it is, which I found to be part of its charm. Astrid is a local expert (she has a blog in connection with these Azalas Cottages) and a wonderfully gracious person, as is her spouse Nikos. This authentic, honest and humble style of living is not for every one, but it was the perfect place for my spouse and me to rest and recoup after some intense travel. We loved it!

The perfect choice for solitude, quiet, sun and sea away from the crowds

This place is a real gem for those seeking solitude and immersion in the sun and sea. The units are few and each unit is very comfortable and well equipped. Consequently, one feels practically at home, with little "interference" and noise from one of the neighboring three units. The complex is a few steps from a small sandy beach and a bay of crystal clear water, about as clear as anyplace in Greece. No sailboats and other craft to disturb your communion with nature. The hosts, Nikos and Astrid, are very friendly and hospitable and treat guests as member of their family. In the best Greek tradition of hospitality, they offered homemade bread and wine and vegetables from their garden. They made our stay such a wonderful experience that we cannot find enough words of praise for their warmth and attention. For all of the above, we cannot think of a better place in Greece for those seeking simplicity with great comfort, swimming completely undisturbed in crystal turquoise waters, and simply enjoying nature and sea on an Aegean island away from crowds, boats, and pesky noises. A couple of excellent restaurants are 10 minutes by car away and more choices are available in the village of Apiranthos 30 minutes away. We recommend it very highly and we hope to return again soon.

Relax tra vento e stelle

Sono stati 3 giorni molto piacevoli, luogo immerso nella natura. Il cottage è piccolino ma ha tutto ciò che serve, il pergolato con ama he è la fine del mondo. Luogo ventilato a due passi dal mare. La spiaggia sotto il cottage è abbastanza ventilata, non adatta a bimbi, ci spostavamo a Moutsouna in spiaggia. Nei dintorni non c'è nulla, pace relax e stelle infinite. Unica nota negativa la strada per arrivarci, sono 10/15 minuti di macchina a 20 km/h di sterrato brutto, sarebbe preferibile una macchina alta per non rischiare di sfasciare auto bassa a noleggio. Nel complesso molto bello, molto rilassante.

Calme absolu et beauté des paysages

Nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour dans les gîtes d Astrid. Une fois passé le petit chemin d accès un peu déroutant la première fois, on arrive au paradis. Les gîtes sont très bien équipés, la vue est superbe, plusieurs petites criques magiques aux eaux cristallines à moins de 3 minutes à pied, où l'on est quasiment seuls au monde, loins de la foule touristique de Naxos. Les propriétaires sont très attentionnés et vous font profiter des fruits et légumes du jardins avec une grande gentillesse. Les tavernes de moutsouna valent aussi le détour, pour des dîners gargantuesques sur le port dans une ambiance familiale Bref, le paradis !

Azalas: Ruhe und Entspannung

Liebe Astrid, lieber Nicos Hiermit wollen wir uns für den Aufenthalt bei euch in Azalas von Herzen danken. Eure aussergewöhnliche Gastfreundschaft und Fürsorge hat uns gleich auf Anhieb wie Zuhause fühlen lassen. Das Haus/Appartement ist sauber und perfekt für zu zweit. Alles war da, was wir für einen perfekten Aufenthalt benötigten. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet und lädt zu kochen oder um ein herrliches Frühstück vorzubereiten ein. Unsere Highlights waren die frischen Eier, Salate, das frische Brot und der köstliche Wein, mit denen ihr uns immer wieder überraschen konntet. Ihr wart immer da, wenn uns zwischenzeitig etwas fehlte, wie bspw. als einmal das Bier oder das Brot (weil es so lecker war!) ausging oder wir ein(ig)e Frage(n) hatten ;). Die wunderbare Umgebung, die Natur, die Ruhe in Kombination mit euch und dem Appartement hat diesen Aufenthalt für uns zu etwas ganz Besonderem gemacht. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wieder kommen :) Vielen lieben Dank! Alles Liebe Vera & Louis

A little piece of heaven! Astrid and Nikos have a special place. They were so accommodating.

They provided wine made on site, fresh organic homemade bread that was out of this world and we picked fresh lemons off the trees everyday and put in our water. Nikos brought us fresh picked wildflowers one evening, how sweet is that. We spent one entire day at the rocky beach looking for beautiful rocks and seashells. The sound of the waves and the rocks tumbling over each other was such a relaxing and peaceful sound. A very special place to get away from the busy life and enjoy the gifts of God! Thank you for sharing your piece of Heaven with us.

Verborgen parel aan de oostkust van Naxos

We hebben genoten van ons verblijf bij Astrid en Nicos. Vanuit ons huisje hadden we een prachtig uitzicht over de zee. De reis van ongeveer 1 uur en een kwartier vanuit de haven was de moeite meer dan waard!

We had a wonderful stay

We had a wonderful stay and are grateful to both Astrid and Nikkos for their gracious welcome and hospitality. We visited without a car, and our hosts helped with our logistical arrangements. While we were there we did a couple amazing hikes, swam, and enjoyed the marvelous natural scenes of that more remote side of Naxos. This turned out to be the highlight of our whole trip to Greece. For anyone interested in something a little more adventurous and out of the way, have no hesitation. This place is one of special beauty, and the buildings themselves exude an ethos of care and expert workmanship which is unfortunately increasingly hard to find these days. Our thanks once again!

Ruhige Ferienunterkunft direkt am Meer mit Sandstrand

Wir haben unseren 10-tägigen Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Bauart und Einrichtung der Ferienwohnung sind ansprechend und praktisch im landesüblichen Stil gehalten - das hat uns gefallen. Der Strand ist für Kinder und Erwachsene perfekt geeignet: Er ist flach, mit Sand bedeckt und leuchtet in wunderschönen unterschiedlichen Blautönen. Die sehr freundlichen Vermieter haben uns großzügig immer wieder mit selbstangebauten Lebensmittel und Brot überrascht. Duftende, saftige Zitronen wachsen direkt an der Terasse. Wer Ruhe sucht, ist hier absolut richtig. Im nächsten Fischerdorf Moutsouna (15 Minuten mit dem Auto oder 45 Minuten zu Fuß) gibt es zwei gute Restaurants, ein Café und einen kleinen Mini-Markt. Die Zufahrtsstraße zur Unterkunft (ca. 2 km) ist stellenweise etwas holprig, war aber mit unserem Fiat Panda-Leihwagen im 1. Gang gut zu meistern. Wir können diese Unterkunft rundum empfehlen!

Quaint house, very peaceful and right on the beach!

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely property right on the verge of a beach. Astrid and Nikos were absolutely hospitable and made us very comfortable. Naxos is a lovely island and I would recommend a trip there for anyone interested in a peaceful & serene getaway. Some things are closed during October like mini markets which is a thing to note if you are going off peak like us so you have to plan ahead and Astrid helped us out with that. Not having too many visitors around added to the charm for us as it was quiet and felt like our own private beach. Weather was still very pleasant so no complaints.

Himmlische Ruhe auf der Insel des Dionysos

Die bildschönen stilvoll eingerichteten Ferienhäuser mit traumhaftem Blick auf die Ägäis vermittelten uns von Anfang an das erwünschte Urlaubsgefühl. Der gastfreundliche Empfang durch Astrid und Niko und die willkommene Versorgung mit Wein und selbstgebackenem Brot fanden wir sehr sympathisch. Wir können diese Urlaubsadresse mit ihrer sehr informativen Webseite uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.

Das Steinhaus war sehr schõn, der Ausblick grandios, Astrid und Nikos sehr freundlich (toller Hauswein und selbst gebackenes herrliches Vollkornbrot gratis) der kleine Hausstrand hatte nur Sand (auch im Wasser) daher sehr schön zum kurzen Baden, die Bergdörfer Apairanthos und Filoti ein Muss, die Nordseite sehr interessant, im Süden schöne lange Sandstrände, "wir kommen wieder" lg Gabi und Heinz

Sagenhaft

Wer abseits touristischer Pfade und individuell reist, ist an diesem Ort bestens aufgehoben. Wir haben in unserem Pfingsturlaub fünf herrliche Tage an diesem wunderbaren Ort verbracht. Wir waren begeistert von der Landschaft, der Ruhe, der Abgeschiedenheit, dem Meer, dem Blick von der Veranda, dem ursprünglichen Griechenland und besonders von Astrids und Nikos' Gastfreundschaft, welche diesen Ort zu dem macht, was er ist. Wir sind von der gesamten Familie samt Bello und Co herzlich empfangen und bewirtet worden. Nochmals ein großes Dankeschön an euch. Die Steinhäuser sind zweckmäßig aber auch gemütlich eingerichtet. Es fehlt an Nichts. Auch das Internet funktionierte tadellos. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Selbst kochen geht problemlos. Moutsouna hat jedoch wunderbare Einkehrmöglichkeiten. Wir sind traumhaft am Hafen gesessen und haben lecker gegessen. Die Umgebung lädt zu unzähligen Entdeckungstouren ein. Wir empfehlen ein Auto, da somit auch der Erkundungsradius problemlos erweitert werden kann. Sei es in die Berge, in eines der Bergdörfer oder an andere Strände. Unsere Kinder waren begeistert von der alten Schmirgelbahn und somit sind wir ihrer Spur gefolgt. Wir kommen hoffentlich wieder!

A Wonderfully Unique Experience!

Staying with Astrid and Nikos at Azalas is a unique opportunity and one not to be missed. Proof of that is the guests who have been coming back for the past 10+ years. The location is on the east coast of Naxos and a 10 minute drive north of Moutsouna. We swam every day in the Aegean at the beautiful cove across the road. We were lucky to be there to see the crush and were treated to decanters of wine, fresh baked bread and fruits as they ripened. There are three restaurants in town and a grocery store, so you can eat out or use your cottage's well equipped kitchen. The stone cottages are lovely with coastal views, wifi, air con, heater, fireplace and patio out front. We were in Greece for the month of September and are so glad to have spent a week at Agios Dimitris. Our thanks to Astrid and Nikos for sharing their timeless Greek island lifestyle with us.

Un site remarquable dans un paysage superbe et un accueil très chaleureux d'Astrid et de Nikos.

Dés l'arrivée, la bonne route qui traverse l'île d'Ouest en Est depuis Naxos vous fait découvrir les beaux paysages de montagnes et les beaux villages blancs. La descente vers Azalas est spectaculaire et vous comprenez que vous avez choisi un des sites les plus jolis et surtout le plus calme de toute l'ile. Vous y trouvez en arrivant un lieu exceptionnel. Du logement , tout en pierre de taille , construit par le propriétaire, vous avez une vue à 180° sur montagnes et mer. A vos pieds , vous avez une belle petite chapelle qui surplombe de quelques mètres la mer et des petites plages de sable fin où les enfants peuvent se baigner en toute tranquillité. Chaque matin depuis votre chambre , vous assistez à de magnifiques levers de soleil qui changent de couleur chaque jour. Le logement est parfaitement conçu et très bien équipé avec , en plus , une petite terrasse personnelle où pouvez déjeuner, vous reposer ou bien admirer le paysage. Le petit port de Moutzounas à 2km500 vous offre des tavernes avec terrasses ombragées , les pieds dans l'eau, où vous pouvez profiter de poissons frais et de calamars à des prix très intéressants. L'accueil d'Astrid et de Nikos est très chaleureux et ils ne demandent qu'à vous renseigner et vous aider dans votre séjour. Si , l'été, il y a beaucoup de monde sur l'île , ici vous êtes loin de la foule. Nous avons passé une semaine de rêve au mois de novembre 2017 avec un temps magnifique (mer et ciel dont les bleus changent de couleur sans arrêt) avec une température à l'ombre d'une moyenne de 19 à 22 degrés. Nous avons même pu nous baigner en descendant de quelques mètres depuis notre logement. Pour résumer : "C'est le site idéal pour passer des moments de grande tranquillité dans un site merveilleux".

A Perfect Cottage on the Sea

It doesn't get better than this! We spent a week in this idyllic setting in a charming cottage overlooking the tiny Agios Dimitrios chapel sitting on the Aegean Sea. Our stone cottage - hand-built by our host Nikos - was just beautiful, very comfortable, and well stocked with everything we needed. We found the stone work of all the cottages just remarkable and a real joy to spend our days . We swam each day at the sandy beach immediate opposite our cottage in crystal clear water. Astrid and Nikos were so friendly and helpful, going out of their way serving us the best home-made, wood-fired bread that we have ever tasted, and also a goat dinner which is a typical Greek specialty. So Delicious! In addition, we had 2 fabulous fish dinners in the nearby coastal town of Moutsouna. The scenery in and around Azalas is most beautiful and the mountainous roads of Naxos provide just stunning views of the island. We made day trips to Apiranthe and Chora which were both very picturesque and sparsely populated. Lastly we would like to thank both Astrid and Nikos for welcoming us into their lovely home. We hope to return some day in the future.
