We spent four wonderful weeks in this nice villa apartment. The location is top notch. Close to everything still calm and quiet. You are on the beach and you can walk to Skiathos town. You can take long walks and you can catch the bus, just minutes from the house. There are plenty of tavernas nearby and small supermarkets just a couple of minutes walk from the house. You don't need a car.
The house is clean and very well maintained, Persa looks after the house in the very best way. Every three days we had a clean house, clean beds and clean towels. If we needed something, Persa fixed it at once.
You don't have a garden here, but who needs one when you have the beach outside your door step? We spent our outside time at the house on the stunning terrace. The view from there is wonderful. All beds in the house are very comfortable, we slept like babies. The AC worked well and were very quiet. Every day we had our sunbeds on the beach, first row. This is a great service, included in the price. The 20 % discount on the Watersports is great, there is a lot you can enjoy. Parachute, speed rings, waterski, wake board, boat rental...
And Thanasis at the Watersports, Persas husband, took us to the islands, Arkos and beautiful Tsougria, and to different beach tavernas. He took us there and came and picked us up when we called for him. A great service and not at all expensive.
You have a couple of nice tavernas on the beach, we preferred Thessaloniki, Anemoni, Exantas and Café del Mar.
We didn't cook in the house, only breakfasts. Our favourite restaurants in town are The Borzoi and Basilikos. Beach taverna favourites are Kanapitsa and Sklithri.
Our hosts, Persa and Thanasis, are the loveliest people. There was nothing they wouldn't do for us. When our grand child was ill, Persa took us to her doctor and to the pharmacy. When my sister left for Athens early in the morning, Thanasis drove her to the airport . They are just wonderful people! They made us feel very welcome, from the pick up at the airport til the drop off at the airport.
We went back home with wonderful memories from this stay, and the best memories we got from Persa and Thanasis. They really made us feel at home. They didn't only open their home for us, they opened their hearts. We shared a lot of joy and laughter!
We can strongly recommend this rental to anybody and we will be back!
