Our room was in a perfect position right by the pool, very peaceful. Maybe not for everyone but we never felt overlooked or lacking privacy. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was fantastic, the two big asks for any hotel stay. The room was spacious and well equipped, perfect min every way. All of the staff were amazing and couldn’t do enough for you, so friendly every single day, from George on reception, Nikos and Nik on the bar and the lovely waitresses in the restaurant, cannot fault them. They were all amazing and a credit to the place. Location was perfect, a minute to the beach with lovely tavernas to choose from and a short stroll into town. A perfect week, and would 100% recommend.

Beautiful and clean accommodation. Near the small supermarket, excellent restaurants, bars but in a quiet place and a few minutes to the beach. There is also a bus stop nearby. There was coffee available in the accommodation, which was very nice to cook in the morning and plan trips around the island with her. Very nice staff.

The most welcoming place I've ever been to. The owner Mrs Fofi really is a careful and wonderful person. We booked the room at the top, nice modern room with unique aesthetic design, and a big L-shaped terrace with a beautiful view to the sea, the town, the port, the hills, and the planes. You can see everything from here. The room was really clean, and also cleaned during the day. The breakfast is varied, fresh and tasty, we could not ask for more. 😊 Thank you for everything, it was a really good experience.

I can’t say enough great things about our stay! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome — always friendly, professional, and ready to help with anything we needed. The food was absolutely exceptional. Every meal was delicious, beautifully presented, and offered a great variety to suit all tastes. Whether it was the breakfast buffet, poolside snacks, or dinner at the on-site restaurant, everything was fresh and flavorful. The amenities were top-notch. The pools were sparkling clean and the perfect place to relax during the day, while the private beach access was a dream — clean sand, clear water, and plenty of loungers available. Everything throughout the property was well-maintained and spotless, which really made a difference in our overall experience. If you’re looking for a relaxing, high-quality getaway with amazing service, great food, and beautiful surroundings, this hotel is the place to go. We’ll definitely be coming back!

The host was very nice and immediately upgraded us to a room with more beds even though we arrived early and our room wasn't ready yet. Apartment was very spacious with a water boiler and a nice balcony. We even witnessed a little private concert in the evening as there was a group of friends playing bouzouki from the adjacent Skiathos Garden theatre. The receptionist was very smiling and gave us advice on the nearest bus stop and the beaches we should visit. We felt very welcome even though we only stayed for one night and were honest about us wanting to visit the other islands in the Sporades rather than Skiathos. Don't miss the Koutsavaki tavern which is 10 mins away from the hotel for an authentic and non-touristic experience.

Close to the city centre and all the main beaches, the hotel is very well located. The room and housekeeping were excellent, but what really set this hotel apart is the personal touch of the staff. Alexandra in particular was very friendly and attentive, taking care of all our needs and wishes. I cannot praise her and all the staff enought for their exceptional service. I would highly reccomend this hotel to anyone looking for an hotel experience with staff who are truly second to none. Thank you again and see you soon. 😁

Room was very spacious, comfortable and clean. We have booked a room with the see view, and it was spectacular. Additionally, the pool is really good.

A pretty town, plenty of shops, restaurants and cafes, but all in an attractive setting of tree-lined cobbled streets and scenic port area. We would recommend Nikos taverna in the pedestrian street for excellent grilled food and efficient service-it’s always packed and there’s good reason for that- also the fish taverna on the port., which also serves meat dishes and traditional Greek cuisine. Very reasonable prices, good food and lovely staff. For breakfast, coffee and a nice little place to people-watch, we loved the Foodie cafe in the pedestrian street. Friendly staff and good service.

Skiathos is a popular and lively island with a distinctly touristy vibe. Visitors are drawn not only by its beautiful nature and beaches, but also by its close proximity to the island of Skopelos – well known from the Mamma Mia! movie, with daily tours departing from Skiathos. Skiathos boasts a wide variety of beaches, many with golden sand and easy access. One of the absolute highlights is Lalaria Beach, a stunning spot with dramatic white cliffs and turquoise water – accessible only by boat.

Trulos is a quiet area in Skiathos with many trees.

Trulos is a quiet area in Skiathos with many trees. The sound of birds and even a rooster was so pleasant to wake up to. There are several very good restaurants in the area, some with live entertainment. There are numerous markets where you can purchase anything you might want. It's very easy to catch the bus which seems to run about every 20 minutes to go to downtown Skiathos. Trulos Beach was by far my favourite beach, quiet with families and very calm water. Since I am a swimmer I enjoyed swimming there the most of any beach I visited. Trulos is a great location.

Great beach nearby with taverna, lovely walks available, regular bus service with bus stop 15 being a 5-10 minute walk downhill - not so easy going back up! Plenty of restaurants in the area including a short walk along the main road to Aghia Paraskevi which will give you more choice - we particularly liked 'Maistrali' - up the lane opposite the church, family owned and run.

Achladies is a great place to stay. The beach is sandy and the sea warm and clear. Plenty of sunbeds. The Mojo bar is great for breakfast, lunch and drinks. Friendly and attentive staff. Water taxi is a great way to travel to and from Skiáthos town. Quick and reliable. Also enjoyed the nearby restaurants. Great food and friendly staff. The couple of supermarkets have all the basics needed. Also a regular bus route around the island.

First of all this accommodation is far from being 5 stars.

First of all this accommodation is far from being 5 stars. Rooms have not been renovated for years, the bathroom is so old and full of mold, needs an urgent upgrade. The hotel does not have a fitness, you have to go to another hotel if you want to use it. We booked a Suite with Sea View but upon arrival they told us it is no longer available and they give us another room for the first 3 days then we can move to the one we booked. Staff was very nice at first, but then they ignore us and not answering the phone or messages. Unfortunately, we had to leave 2 days earlier because of terrible news, my husband’s dad passed away. They didn't do anything to partially refund us. Do yourself a favour and avoid this place at all costs.

Better than we expected......various areas to visit, a busy promenade with many shops and restaurants, the port area with some lovely tavernas overlooking the sea, we liked the local beach Megali Ammos which was walkable from our hotel and had 3/4 lovely restaurants...our favourite was the Thessaloniki. Great bus service every 10 mins. Not too many families so ideal for couples or singles. Plenty of boat trip options, etc.

Koukounaries is really just a single (quite busy) road that runs behind a lake from one end of the Koukounaries beach to the other. The beach itself is fine golden sand with lots of facilities (loungers, boat and pedallo hire, bars and cafes), there is also public toilets in the centre of the beach ( a rarity in Greece) and is about 1km long. It gets very busy during the day. Access is easy as there is a regular bus from Skiathos town that stops along the road. There is also a Water Bus boat service from Skiathos town harbour ( cost E7 each way PO). There is also a car park at the Western end of the road but it does get filled up early. The main road is home to numerous bars, restaurants, hotels and apartment blocks and two small supermarkets. There is a small scruffy section in the centre of the road where there is a derelict hotel and apartment block that needs tidying up. For those who like there beaches more stripped back there is also 4 or 5 beaches on the northern section of the peninsula within a 20 or 30 minute walk from the road. You can walk along the shore of the lake but you cannot easily walk all around because of thick vegetation at the eastern end.
