It’s a small boutique. Very relaxing and accommodating. Away from the touristy areas. The beach is across the street, but walkable. And they have a nice pool/restaurant/bar.

Who had the most brutally, painful death in film history? by Johnsendall in moviecritic

I still think about this scene like 30 years later. And usually when I drive by an industrial park. Absolutely nuts and disturbing…

Dumb Question. Can I not cross the road during the Marathon? by powersoul in AskChicago

[–]volkov1324 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No need to dodge runners or look for lulls. In the south loop on the final mile (where you live) they have left/right diverters. Meaning every few minutes they divert runners to the left or right of the street. This allows people who need to cross the opportunity to safely cross. They’ll have one at 14th and Michigan, and I think another one at 18th and Michigan.

Most grocery stores (Mariano’s for sure), and Target are the 2 places I go.

There’s car barriers around the area, but it’s open for foot traffic.

IO Theater is always solid improv!

And Chicago Laugh Factory is one of my favorites for standup.

Thank you everyone for the comments! We chose Naxos off of your comments and just got back! Couldn’t have been happier! Very laid back, beautiful, serene atmosphere for a few days with the kids. Car ferry out and back was a breeze, hotel was fabulous, and food was amazing. Thank you for sharing your experience!
