The Eastern Star

Eastern Star –Anatolikos Astir-, was the name of a boat. A quite special boat actually; It was the name of Mr. Lagos’ first boat, that back in 1924, brought his family safe to the island of Naxos, full of hopes and dreams to start a new life here. The joyful arrival to Naxos was celebrated with a bottle of wine; the family, standing on the wooden deck of the Eastern Star, raised their glasses and toasted to health, love, prosperity and a happy life in Naxos…
Although we do not know today if it was the toasting, the good island vibes or the lucky name of the Eastern Star, the truth is that all of those 1924 dreams came true.

Ninety three years later we still raise our glasses on the Eastern Star deck: Here, at the Lagos Mare Hotel outdoor bar, we are keen on enjoying aperitifs that match the amazing orange-pink colors of the Naxian sunsets. On sweet summer evenings, sipping a glass of pure local wine, we watch the calm sea reflecting the moon and the same stars that guided Cycladic seamen since ancient times to safe harbors. Smitten by the perfect cocktail, we embrace life at its fullest; sharing laughs, stories and witty conversations with friends and loved ones. Summer nights are celebrated at Lagos Mare. The magic begins at the Eastern Star Bar as we toast to make time stop; such precious holiday moments with friends should last forever. And they do; they are as unforgettable, as the taste of our favorite drink.
