Finikas Beach Hotel – Family-friendly beachfront hotel with comfortable accommodations and great views.
Finikas is a remote and idyllic family-friendly hotel on Agali Bay in Naxos. It features beautifully landscaped grounds just steps from the sand, generous suites with sea-view balconies, a beach-facing pool with pool bar, a children’s playground, and a wellness center with jacuzzi, sauna, and fitness room. Their beachfront taverna uses produce grown on-site, fresh-caught seafood, and homemade cheese and pastries. Finikas is located on Pristine and un-crowded Agali Bay, between Aliko Cedar Forest, Aliko Beach, and Pyrgaki Beach, and a short walk from Hawaii Beach.

Finikas Beach Hotel – Location
- Address: Agali Bay near Pyrgaki Beach
- How to Get There: Finikas Beach Hotel is approximately 20 km from the Naxos ferry port and 17 km from the Naxos Airport to the hotel. It is located between Pyrgaki beach and the Cedar Forest of Aliko.
There is a direct bus that travels from the port to the Aliko beach community (route #3). Purchase your ticket and catch the bus at the station located at the end of the long ferry pier – this is the island’s main station and transportation hub; they will have weekly printed schedules to take with you. The trip takes approximately 40 minutes and costs about €3. Buses run every day, typically departing hourly during summer peak hours; less frequently at night, in early morning, and in winter and shoulder season months. It is a 5-minute walk from the bus stop to the hotel.
Taxis are available from the port or airport, generally lined up after the arrival of every flight or ferry, though there may be a wait to secure one. A taxi from the ferry port to Finikas Beach Hotel will cost roughly €30 and take around 30 minutes. A taxi from the airport will also cost about €30 and take around 25 minutes. Taxis on Naxos are not metered, so be sure to agree on a price with the driver before setting out.
For those who prefer to drive themselves, we recommend renting a car near the the port, where you’ll have greater choice among vehicles and rental companies than in the beach towns or villages. We strongly recommend reserving a vehicle in advance, especially if you require automatic transmission.
