The photos don’t do this place justice, a beautiful house in a beautiful setting above a beautiful beach, stunning sunsets and truly peaceful. A lot of thought and attention has gone in to the house, it is traditional Greek, with views of the sea and pine forest from most rooms. The doors have mosquito screens, which we used but we didn’t see any mosquitoes (mid September).We used a car to get around, no problem, the house is within easy reach of the best beaches and the town. There is also a really good taverna on the nearest beach, a very short walk from the house. People arrive by boat for lunch, which makes for a good atmosphere. The beach has comfy sunbeds and if you tell the taverna people you’re staying at the house, they’ll book beds and lunch whenever you want. They’re very friendly. It’s a lovely swimming beach. Katarina, the host, was fantastic, we had a work emergency and she was incredibly kind and helped us out immensely, for which we are very grateful. We’ve stayed in Skiathos a few times before, in modern villas and in a different traditional house, but this is the best one, location, ease and facility wise. The full fridge on arrival was a really nice touch, we barely bought anything else for the first week.
