The description and photos of this fabulous villa do not do it justice. Everything about this rental is wonderful, from the lovely Stamatis meeting us at the airport, supporting us with collecting our hire car and guiding us to the property, to the facilities and location of the villa. The villa and pool area are fabulous and the wrap round veranda provides shade from the sun to those of us who need it, the internal decor and rooms are lovely and there was a midweek towel and linen change which was great. We spent many relaxing days on the veranda watching the planes take off and land at Skiathos airport which is an added bonus to the location, the views are stunning over to Skopelos. There are two local bakeries within a few minutes drive and the local supermarket is very close too. Skiathos town is 5 minutes drive away and the many beaches are within 20 minutes drive as this is a small island. Stamatis you are a wonderful host, thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.

Beautiful villa with amazing views to Skopelos and beyond. Quiet location yet within walking distance of great tavernas and close to Skiathos Town. Outside areas, including the pool, were excellent. Villa really well equipped with everything we needed, including modern appliances and air-conditioning. Stamatis was the perfect host, meeting us at the airport and providing local tips and information. We frequented his bar in town which is lovely. He is very friendly and was always willing to offer any assistance as required. Skiathos is a beautiful island and we would have no hesitation in returning to this wonderful villa.

Stamatis is a very kind and helpful host and goes above and beyond to help. We were met at the airport, where I picked up a car, we followed Stamatis back to the property. He took some of our luggage for us. The villa is lovely and has everything you need. It has the great views of the sea and the end of the runway. The airport is not a problem as very few planes arrive and depart, and it’s great to see them taking off and landing. There are 3 good size bedrooms, one with a bathroom and one additional bathroom. Outside space is fantastic – the terrace has a BBQ on it and coals and firelighters were provided. The pool is lovely. Skiathos is a small island, but we felt a car was good to have, though it looked like there were plenty of buses and taxis. There are two or three good tavernas very nearby within walking distance. We followed many of the walking trails around the island, which are mapped and waymarked pretty well.

Staying in this villa was the perfect experience from start to finish . The villa offers privacy on the side of the mountain with an trip down to Skiathos old port, I would recommend hiring a car, as there are some pretty steep terrain. Stamatis is a superb host and his hospitality is excellent, he was very attentive and came to meet us at the airport. The villa itself has everything you could possibly need during your stay and the photos of the pool don’t do it justice, it’s amazing. Definitely recommend picking this villa for your next vacation!

The villa Iliana is in a quiet residential area and amazing in every way. The owner Stamatis was so helpful, friendly and gave us all information’s needed. From the villa and the pool you have an absolutely brilliant view of the landscape and also the Xanemos beach. Everyone interested seeing the airplanes landing and taking off will have an additional bonus. The planes are quiet, if not silent and fascinating to watch. Skiathos town is about 5 to 10 minutes away by car and there are also three good taverns nearby. There are said to be over 60 beaches on the island and of course we visited some of them. If you are looking for peace and quiet on the beach, you should go to the north side of the Island; here are the best beaches in our opinion. If you happen to be in Skiathos town in the evening, don't miss seeing the film Mama Mia, which was partly filmed on the island. This will be performed several times a week in an open air cinema and you will have a new experience of how much fun you can have in a cinema. Afterwards it is a must to end the evening in the Main Street Bar, it’s a relaxing place, excellent staff and if the owner is there too, I’m sure he will greet you personally. The villa is a lot better than shown in the photos and we can’t recommend this property and the owner Stamatis highly enough. In total absolutely 5 stars for the villa, Stamatis, his entire team and the Greek hospitality. Thanks’ Stamatis with special greetings from the „lobster”.

We had a lovely time in Skiathos. We visited in early May and the weather was a bit colder than usual, so we didn’t spend as much time in the pool as we might have liked. The place is lovely, very open and spacious, and flows down into the pool area. There is lots of space to sit back and relax and let the world go by. We cooked most nights and the kitchen was very easy to use. Stamatis was a very attentive host and made sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely visit again

Sincere thanks to the owner Stamatis who is a very kind and attentive host and goes above and beyond to help. Stamatis helped us organise a rental car in advance. He met us at the airport, helped us collect the rental car and we then followed him to the villa which was really helpful as we arrived late after dark and Skiathos has some steep, hilly roads. There was water, beer and soft drinks on arrival. Stamatis was flexible with check out times, gave helpful recommendations re places to eat and responded very quickly to any messages we sent while there. Can’t recommend the villa highly enough. Stayed as a family of 3 with our 15 month old son. The villa is modern, tastefully finished with beautiful artwork. It has the most incredible, panoramic views of the sea which can be enjoyed from nearly every window in the property and from both the upper terrace and the infinity pool/ surrounding greenery on the lower level. The living / dining area and terrace with bbq is on the upper level and you go downstairs to 3 bedrooms which lead out the pool and greenery area. The runway is close but the planes are quiet, if not silent when landing and are fascinating to watch. You can hear the occasional plane when taking off but these are very infrequent so not an issue at all. The villa is in a quiet residential area. It’s so private and not overlooked at all but equally doesn’t feel isolated as you can still see a few other neighbouring villas, which are a good distance away, from the terrace. Skiathos is very small but I think a car is pretty essential. We personally didn’t feel we could walk into town as the roads are steep in places without pavements and definitely not pram friendly. Town is a short 10 minute drive and there’s a large free car park which is handy. There’s a lovely harbour, shops, waterside restaurants and an amazing bar overlooking the sea called Bourtzo. There’s not many places we would want to stay again as we usually try somewhere new but we would definitely love to stay here again.

I can’t recommend this property highly enough . The property is beautiful and the views are stunning . Stamatis was a great host and even met us at the airport . It’s a small drive into the town but we loved the location . 5 Stars all round
