Naxos Island, celebrated for its dramatic landscapes and mountain vistas, offers some of the most breathtaking panoramic views in the Aegean. Perched on a mountainside, La Punta Villa captures the essence of the island, seamlessly blending traditional Cycladic architecture with contemporary comforts.
The villa’s design takes inspiration from the iconic Cycladic squares, where small buildings encircle a central courtyard. This concept is reflected in the arrangement of the villa’s volumes, carefully distributed across the steep slope to achieve a harmonious balance between seclusion and openness. The layout not only provides shelter from the island’s strong winds and intense sun but also allows residents to fully embrace the surrounding landscape.
La Punta Villa’s architecture is deeply rooted in the use of simple, natural materials. Thick masonry walls, finished with stone and plaster, offer both a bioclimatic advantage and a connection to Naxos’s architectural heritage. These materials are carefully selected to endure the local climate while providing thermal comfort, ensuring a pleasant living experience year-round.
Staying at La Punta Villa presents a unique blend of indoor and outdoor living. The enclosed spaces offer a sense of serenity and introspection, while the open terraces and courtyards invite guests to enjoy uninterrupted views of the Aegean Sea. Here, the tranquillity of the island merges with the timeless allure of Cycladic architecture, crafting an idyllic retreat for those seeking a deeper connection with nature and the essence of Naxos.
