Villa Naos
Sea views, space, and slower days
The appeal of Villa Naos is its blend of striking architecture and open Aegean views. In Koundouros, this family-owned, nine-bedroom villa has expansive terraces, open-air living spaces and an infinity pool that faces the sea. The setting gives a retreat group room to gather, while also leaving space for quiet moments outdoors, from an unhurried morning on the terrace to an evening under the stars. It is a polished private-villa environment rather than a clearly defined meditation tradition or programmed retreat in its own right, so the experience will depend on the retreat arranged there. Ask the host about dates, practice plans and what is included before booking. For travelers drawn to island landscapes and the comfort of a spacious villa, Naos makes a memorable backdrop for a restorative stay on Kea.

A typical day
