Charming villa for up to 8; stunning panorama from 4 sun-terraces and pool
Welcome from Kevin to lovely Orchard Villa Skiathos! (Jul-Sep still avail!).
Pg-Dn to Description - but click "Contact Host (NOT "Check Availability" or "Request Book") to tell me your dates/party size so I can check provisionals from all adverts before I send you quotes and Letting Agreement.
And to check with me in case of doubt - descriptions and photos are NON-contractual unless in the Letting Agreement (not yet in the photos are the 2024 new curtains, furniture, all linen; and the extended pool/decking. But - photos show spring-timeflowers which don't bloom midsummer. But the view doesn't change !)
ORCHARD VILLA SKIATHOS is classic 'Traditional Greek Island' style - blue shutters, red-tiled low-pitch roofs, and - rare on Skiathos - a Cyclades roof sun-terrace. It's one of just a few villas and 3 tavernas with one of the best Skiathos viewpoints, on the low Katsaros ridge overlooking sandy beaches and the spectacular '7-island' view across Skiathos Bay. Its peaceful setting has a gated entrance shared with one villa (with separately fenced garden), with parking for 4 cars your side.
There’s a large cool flag-stoned living room, split-level to the winter log fireplace and sofa, and open-plan across the 'pub' bar and stools to the fully-equipped kitchen. Four air-conditioned cosy 2-person bedrooms with exposed wood sleep 2-8, with 3 shower etc. rooms (one en-suite). The pool (more for kids than adults as below) is set into the terraced garden slope with the same stunning views across Skiathos bay.

REVIEWS from guests from Owners Direct / HomeAway (now 'VRBO'), see "Reviews" tab on other O-V listings - here's a sample from Sophie (Aug 2020) ...
" Thanks so much for letting us have such a beautiful villa, we’re having a lovely time. I thought your idea it has the best view in the Med. was exaggerated, but may well be true! Pool great for refreshing dip, and we’ve enjoyed comfortable shady spots under the vine pergola and roof terrace sunshine. Great 'Olive Thea' restaurant only 5 mins walk, probably best on Skiathos".
BEDROOMS - there's a double (or twin) master with en-suite, wc, and double vanity unit; and three twins plus two shower rooms each with wc and small vanity unit.
They're all air-conditioned, with exposed wood ceilings and beams (so "No Smoking!").
DINING - inside, or (mostly) outdoors on the courtyard patio. The split-level lounge is open-plan across the bar and stools to the well-equipped kitchen, with doors to master and guest wings with 4 air-con bedrooms. There’s a wine rack - for you to fill! (see Orchard Villa Guest Guide - Part 3, Food & Wine), a full cookery library, and lots of books for rare rainy days - or on sun-loungers.
Four French windows open onto a vine-covered split-level courtyard patio with tasteful wood furniture for outdoors living (no 'white plastic'!), overlooking a ½-acre hillside olive-grove garden with views from three terraces for sunbathing, partying, and drinks above the pool. You enjoy the unmatched '7-island' view over Skiathos bay and its 60+ mostly sandy beaches and hidden coves. The courtyard patio is your extended living-room, sheltered from breezes and warm enough for dinner and drinks 'til after midnight; with the garden lights and moonlit sea views across to the lights of the villages on Skopelos and Evia Islands.
KITCHEN - open-plan across 'pub' bar and stools, with modern ceramic-hob cooker and hood with fan oven, microwave, toaster, electric kettle, filter coffee, two fridges with small freezers, work surfaces, double sink, dishwasher, and loads of storage. And there’s a washing machine, ironing board, steam iron - and large outdoor ‘umbrella’ dryer.
SUPPORT and SUPPLIES - Greek guest protection law is for an unserviced villa (NOT hotel-type "serviced lodging"), but the price includes provision of support/supplies you request simply by booking the villa.
They are: welcome pack; weekly bed- and bath-linen; domestic supplies; end-clean, and (if not excluded by the Rental Agreement as 'issues beyond reasonable control’): maintenance of amenities inc. pool and appliances. Locally paid services like extra cleaning, barbecue party, shopping delivery, etc. may be possible
INTERNET - perfect signal for your 3-4-5G mobiles as wi-fi hot-spot to your tablet or laptop (sorry, NO fixed-line Wi-Fi router; billing not practical) ... and free wifi access at nearly all tavernas and bars in village - beaches - countryside.
CERTIFICATION - Orchard Villa was on 'Owner’s Direct' site from 2005, and 'S-Times' 1990; and certified by the Tourism Ministry.
GARDEN/PARKING - the villa and grounds are quiet and not overlooked, fenced, with parking for 4 cars of yours.
SUN-TERRACES and pool - 4 terrace areas, all with superb views ... The large unoverlooked roof sun-terrace has a 360º view from Skiathos bay's ‘7-islands’ to the wooded Kechria valley and the north channel. Then there's a split-level dining courtyard/patio (through 4 French windows from the lounge); a top ‘party’ terrace with sun-loungers; the pool-area terrace with slate-top drinks table; and the grassed picnic slope below.
The POOL ... for adults is more of a 'plunge-pool cool-off'! (from Sophie’s 5* review “ ... Great for a refreshing dip” ... rather than serious swimming from Skiathos’ 60+ safe and mainly sandy beaches, most only 5-25 mins drive).
It's a modern (2021) ‘above-ground’ Pool plus my wood decking, from leading pool-maker "Bestway" (,000s of happy users), attractively set in-ground on its own ledge landscaped into the hillside. At 7½ x 4m. it’s like most mid-size Skiathos villa pools. The new decking is just for a pool-side drink or sun-bathe ... not for a dive- or jump-in, as the pool is just a child-secure 1¼m. deep!
The pool has level access to the pool ladder by 2 steps down from the far end of the terrace, with its slate-top aperitifs table and bench - more space to sip your aperitif enjoying the stunning panorama over Skiathos bay, with an eye on the kids - or sunset.
TAVERNAS and COUNTRY at the front gate -
TAVERNAS-restaurants - 3 of Skiathos' top 10 (but affordable) within 12-18 mins walk: 'Olive View' taverna - Trip Advisor 4.5/5.0; 'Anastasia' (Paradise Hotel), T-A 4.5; and 'Kivo Creative Greek Restaurant' (Kivo Hotel), T-A 4.5+) The hotels' scenic pool-bars are usually open to you. Other favourite Skiathos tavernas - all within 10-25 mins drive - are in "Orchard Villa Skiathos Guide Part 2" I send you.
COUNTRYSIDE pursuits ... hill and forest hikes and drives, horse-riding, trail biking, country tavernas, and sight-seeing to restored Byzantine chapels and monasteries (sorry, no classic ruins!).
SKIATHOS VILLAGE and HARBOUR - classic Greek-island - are 10 mins drive (click 'Location' tab). 'Fathers' Arrival' in "Mamma Mia" (the wedding was in Agios Ioannis church, near Glossa village on Skopelos).
Inviting traffic-free paved village lanes offer all shops and services, plus the old harbour and marina lined with tavernas and café-bars.
BEACHES, TAVERNAS, SEA-SPORTS all under 5-25 mins drive (click 'Location')
Skiathos has dozens of sandy beaches; the largest with water-sports, most with tavernas or bars. If you prefer to enjoy most of your time at Orchard Villa, there are reliable radio taxis and buses for beaching. But you really need a hire car - please ask me. Or, water-taxis from the old port to many beaches, and "Trips round the Islands" of Skiathos, Tsougria, Arkos, and Marengo; and to the marine park (seals/dolphins); plus scheduled hi-speed hydrofoils for trips to Skopelos and Alonnissos, and mainland Volos.
... and all this on an island barely 9 miles by 6, seen by many as the most attractive in all Greece.
TRAVEL to Skiathos - direct charters, with only 10 mins transfer to Orchard Villa. (or budget flights to Athens, for domestic flight to Skiathos).
Or for a 2-in-1 holiday, take a car/ferry-cruise tour with stop-over options in the Alps-Venice-Athens.

About the host
Hosted by KevinVivienne
For 30 years Orchard Villa Skiathos was both spring-time home and summer holiday retreat for guests of Vivienne and Kevin, a retired British couple who spent a lifetime abroad together, mainly in Greece, the Alps, and the middle-East.
But with the utmost sadness I have to tell our many Orchard Villa friends that dear Vivienne is no longer with us, and while her memory still remains as your contact with the "KevinVivienne - Contact Host" button above, and named on our other sites, Kevin is now 'your man' to arrange lettings.
I still divide my time between France, Greece, and England, and always delighted to chat about summer and winter/ski holidays in Greece and France, and their food, wine, and language. So don't hesitate to send me a message as above), and I will get back to you.
And while you're on your holiday on Skiathos, if you have a rare problem the on-site management teams can't solve, I'm always at the end of a phone!

Why they chose this property
We combed Greece and the islands for ten years, for a dream villa plot with stunning sea and island views, and local building all in traditional Greek style - white walls, low red-tiled and flat roofs, blue shutters, sun-terraces, porches and pergolas - and no high-rise shoe-box hotels (or 'rave-up' resorts ... but still a v. cool night -life!). In 1990 architect friend Angelos Altsitsoglou realised our dream as "Orchard Villa", in its own olive and fig grove still with over 50 fruiting trees - but careful picking your figs - the leaves can sting! We found the land overgrown head-high, and had scramble up an ancient olive tree (still there!) to be sure we had the stunning panoramic view you now enjoy, equalling the very best coastline scenery anywhere in the Mediterranean!
What makes this property unique
We used the plans of our favourite Cycladic villa, with split-level flagstoned lounge, 'pub'-style bar, and open-plan kitchen. Four French windows lead you onto a sun-trap split-level courtyard/patio with its vine pergola; and up to a roof sunbathing terrace, or down broad steps to the two garden terraces. The fenced pool below has level (child-gated) access from its own 'ouzo sundowner terrace', and the ultimate panoramic view over the bay and "7-islands" view ... Skiathos, Skopelos, Arkos, Marengo, Panormos, Tsougria, Tsougriaki, Evvia ... and on the far blue horizon, even to Skyros .
