The Old Jesuits Resort at Kalamitsia is a historical complex in the Ano Potamia valley of Naxos, dating from the period of Catholic religious orders on the island. During the Venetian and post-Venetian era, Jesuit and Ursuline orders established several monasteries and schools on Naxos, and this site served as a retreat and agricultural estate. The surrounding area features fertile valley land with citrus groves and traditional stone architecture.
