Other details to note
Location
The village of Filoti is famous for its beautiful olive groves and quaint Byzantine churches. Every summer the village hosts Naxos island’s largest traditional festival, or “glendi”, a three-day celebration with dancing and feasting beginning on August 15th. The village is the most populated in the Cyclades and provides all the services and amenities required by the traveler, including several small supermarkets, pharmacy, ATMs, petrol station, butcher, bakery, doctor, hairdresser, cafes and tavernas.
Lovely Naxos is one of the most populated islands in the Cyclades, with a significant number of people staying on the island year-round. This means that the island does not shut down in winter, services are available throughout the year. Naxos is the largest and most fertile island in the Cyclades, with beautiful sandy beaches and pretty traditional villages. There are significant traditional festivals and cultural events of interest to the traveler which take place every year during the summer until September, including the Naxos festival, Wine Festival and Fisherman’s Festival.
In summer Naxos is a convenient launch pad to visiting other islands, without the inconvenience of returning to Athens first. There are more than 30 islands accessible within 1-2 hours by ferry, with prices ranging from only 10-20€. Guests can also arrange for a smaller boat The stunning Small Cyclades in particular should not be missed, encompassing the charming islands of Koufonisia, Schinousa, Donoussa, and Iraklia.

Almond Blossom Cottage aims to be environmentally sustainable, with solar panels for electricity and responsible sourcing of water. Please turn lights and the air conditioner off when not in use, and take the card which connects the cottage’s electricity when you go out (this will prevent the cottage catching fire in the event anything is accidently left on in the kitchen).
