Location
- Petrino fully renovated 300+ years old apartment is located in the heart of Kastro, the Venitian old town in the middle of Naxos’s main city. It is directly under the Monastery of Ursulines, and is best accessed by going through the Prantouna Kastro entrance, a 50m walk. Access by car is up to Prantouna square or Saint Minas parking area.
- It is 2min walk from the Catholic church and all other “diamonds” of Kastro (Museum, Domus festival, 1739 bar etc.)
- The house is stone built, and dates back to before 1800. The character and age of the apartment is shown through numerous carefully maintained ornaments, creating a unique atmosphere , luxurious but equally oozing a feeling of “old”. The renovation has been done following the stringent requirements from the Archaeology , avoiding the use of concrete and using only natural materials, like wood, natural chalk wall paint etc.
- Its location ensures that even in the peak of summer months, there is perfect silence in the evening, despite being a stones throw away from the busy port and its nightlife. One can hear the sounds from the arrival of boats, the sound of the wind and feel absorbed in an 1800s environment.
