Beautiful and in great location!

It was the perfect place for us to stay, within walking distance to the town center and cafes and our family in Glossa... It is difficult to find if you aren't familiar with the town or don't speak Greek. (Glossa doesn't have any posted street names). But pretty easy to navigate otherwise.

Lovely rustic property in Glossa

We really enjoyed staying in Glossa and the property is in a lovely location. Tomas the agent was both friendly and helpful and picked us up from the port on our arrival. We enjoyed chatting to him. The property is traditional and fairly basic but had everything we needed. The air conditioning was fab as was the lovely courtyard. We were unaware that the toilet and shower were in outside building but this was not a problem especially as the property is in a quiet location. There are bars, restaurants and shops a short walk away- but lots of steps to keep you fit! The buses aren’t very frequent at all but cheap and stop at different beaches. We hired a car one day to see more of the island. Overall a really lovely stay and a beautiful quiet hillside town in comparison to the busy island of Skiathos.

Perfect holiday

Lovely, spacious house in the middle of charming Glossa. The agent was always there when we needed something and was very helpful and friendly. People here are exceptionally friendly, especially with kids. And the house is in great walking distance of the very delicious restaurant Agnanti. Hope we can return some time.

A fantastic relaxing holiday in the heart of Glossa!

We’ve just returned from the most magical of family holidays. The house is in a perfect location to explore the lovely village of Glossa with its traditional village square, restaurants and shops and the surrounding area, especially the wonderful beaches. At the height of the season it was very easy to catch a bus from Glossa to the best beaches, including those used for filming Mamma Mia! We only hired a car for one afternoon to visit the church on the rock but we could have easily booked a taxi instead. The locals are extremely friendly and helpful - we felt immersed in local life which was an unexpected treat in the middle of August. Thomas, the property manager, was most helpful. He picked us up from the port when no taxis were available and he checked on us a few times during our stay - he even brought us some figs from his tree. The property was air conditioned in the bedrooms - definitely needed in August. Overall we would thoroughly recommend a stay here and we would love to return one day!

Schönes Haus im Dorf Glossa

Neu renoviert. Schön gemacht. Aber Badezimmer nur von Terrasse begehbar. Kein vernünftiger Herd. Gelegentlich Lärm durch Verkehr. Ansonsten gute Lage. Schöner Ausblick von den oberen Zimmern.

Amazing stay in Glossa on Skopelos Island!

The house was spacious and clean with easy access to local restaurants and stores. Wonderful views from the balcony of Glossa and the Aegean. Short walk to the island bus stop for direct transportation to island beaches throughout the day. The house is also a short taxi ride from the small church featured in the movie "Mamma Mia"! The air conditioners in the bedrooms made sleeping in the heat of summer extremely comfortable. Overall a wonderful vacation I would easily recommend.

Our relaxing and memorable two weeks on the Aegean

This was a most memorable time that we spent staying in the hilltop village of Glossa on the Island of Skopelos. The home warm, charming and boasted an amazing view of the Aegean and the several small islets nearby. The locals were friendly, the food was healthy, fresh and delicious. There wear beautiful beaching where to swim and snorkel nearby and riding through the rustic villages on a scooter is something that we will never forget. Would love to return the next chance that we get!
