Cape Kanapitsa Hotel & Suites

Pulizia della stanza molto superficiale

We stayed at the Hotel Kanapitsa which overlooks the bay. The hotel has a great location view wise but there is limited restaurants within walking distance. We caught the water taxi from the beach which is 4.5 euros each to Skiathos town where you are spoilt for choice for eating and drinking. Taxis were 15 euros each way so factor that into your evening cost.

My wife and I had a reasonable experience at this hotel, however have rated this as a 3* on the basis that the hotel is not a 5* and so would seem strange and potentially misleading for others to give anything else. The Pro's 1) Staff - from reception to the pool bar to housekeeping, staff at the hotel were exceptional, always happy to please. 2) Room cleanliness - apart from smell noted below, the room cleanliness was of a very good standard, with housekeeping changing towels etc on a daily basis. It would have been a nice touch to have water replenished on a daily basis (like at other hotels), but not a big deal, just a suggestion. 3) Breakfast/bar food - plenty of choice at breakfast and enjoyable. We ate from the pool bar on two occasions - both being good food and generous helpings (Classic Club Sandwich and BBQ Burger). The Cons 1) The building itself: the intention was probably there at design stage, but the execution of the build lacks in many departments, with the primary one being not finishing off many of the finer details (such as floors in corridors, lighting on steps, exposed pipework and electrics and steel girders under balconies left exposed). The room itself lacks furniture and what there is is of an inferior quality. 2) The smell in our room/in corridors - the smell from drains was a problem in both our room and adjacent corridors. Buying lavender didn't really help too much. All in all, a reasonable stay at the hotel, subject to the above.

A great hotel with the most amazing views. We had a sea view room , very spacious, huge bed, large terrace, large bathroom & excellent air conditioning. Pool and bar area are beautiful with the most stunning views and the two young boys working the bar were amazing. Breakfast was delicious, plenty of choice , breads, pastries, cold meats , fresh fruits & yoghurt & and the full English which was lovely . All staff very friendly & extremely helpful. Would definitely stay here again & highly recommend. Thank you for a lovely stay xx

We stayed at this hotel at the beginning of September. It cost 25 euros from airport to hotel by taxi. The hotel has beautiful views , and a short walk to Kanapista beach where you can get a water taxi to skiathos town for 4.50 euros each way. There is a bus stop at the bottom of the hill which takes you into town, however these are very full, we had to watch two buses pass us by as they were full to bursting .Breakfast at the hotel was shocking, often no coffee left and had to keep asking staff for glasses for juice. Also no cutlery, people had to wait because it was being washed., very slow replenishing breakfast items, people just standing around waiting for breakfast items. One lady was eating off a saucer as there was no plates. Totally unacceptable. There was two lads working the bar there who worked very hard and a credit to the hotel. Reception staff were lovely but definitely not a 5 star hotel,

We had a super few days here. The hotel location is the very best thing about it - beautiful sea views from the pool, bar, breakfast area and from our room. It’s between two lovely sandy beaches, both a short walk away. We found three very good restaurants within easy walking distance and a small super market. Bus stop 12 was five minutes walk and from here we could get into Skiathos town easily. The area is hilly, fine if you’re fit and healthy but probably not suitable if you struggle with mobility. The hotel staff were all very friendly and worked hard. Breakfast was enjoyable, possibly a little repetitive but lots of choice (we stayed 5 nights), we ate well and didn’t need to eat again until the evening! Our room was comfortable, the view from the balcony was stunning and we spent plenty time relaxing here. The bathroom wasn’t so great, it definitely needs updating, but it was clean and did the job. The hotel website states five star. It’s definitely not comparable to other five star hotels but certainly a good 3 or maybe 4. We realised this beforehand so it wasn’t a problem - we chose it for the location and sea views and they certainly didn’t disappoint! We’d book again/recommend to friends.
