Looks like ferries run between multiple islands. Anyone have a recommendation for a villa?

How did you do the day trips? By ferry?

My teens loved Naxos.

Same here. It was many years ago, but I had a great time in Naxos.

Forgot to mention, we stayed near Agios Prokopios which is a gorgeous beach that has lots of wonderful nearby restaurants.

I haven’t been to Naxos. But love Paros. I recommend staying in Parikia or Naoussa if you choose to go. They both have shopping and dining in walking distance. Naoussa does have way more walkable dining options in my opinion. The main bus station is in Parikia so you should have no trouble bussing to/from Naoussa. You can also take a taxi for 30 euros. For activity later into the night (11 PM and beyond), Naoussa is better.

Trying to decide between Naxos and Paros for an early summer trip with teens. Bonus if you have a suggestion for a villa or restaurant(s). Would prefer to be somewhere where we can walk to at least a couple of restaurants.
