Skiathos Living

We have just returned from a great 11 night stay at Skiathos living. The two-story accommodation was very clean and we were pleased with how spacious it was. There was two large bedrooms, two large shower/toilet rooms, a kitchenette and a large living area with two balconies. The continental breakfast was delivered every morning and offered a great selection for us (two adults and two children). The location is perfect, 2 minutes walk from the port/town and 1 minute from the bus stop. The staff couldn’t do enough for us, they were so friendly and our room was cleaned daily with fresh towels. There are hair dryers in the accommodation and free towels available for the pool. The pool area was also nice and clean, plenty of bed and in full sun until later in the day. The views from the accommodation and pool area are great, I can’t believe we got this accommodation for such a reasonable price. We stayed in Skiathos to attend a family wedding and despite others in the wedding party paying double and triple for accommodation, they all commented that ours was better than there’s. We would definitely recommend and have family booked to stay again next year as they were very impressed. -A point for parents to note that there is no shallow area for children in the pool -There is no pool bar or on-site shop. This would make the place even better as we did have to run across to the shop quite often for water (however it is only a few minutes walk) -The WiFi is sporadic although we found this to be the case across the whole island

This was our first trip to Skiathos and we were very pleased that we chose this hotel. There are a few steps up to the property but it’s worth it for the stunning views you get from your balcony or the pool area. The rooms are large, ours had two bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen/dining area and living room and we had two balconies. The rooms were cleaned everyday and you don’t need take beach towels as they supply fresh ones near to the pool. The breakfast is huge but very healthy and an excellent start to the day. The staff will do anything to help and they’re all very friendly. The pool area is so peaceful and there were always enough loungers, very comfortable too. The nearest bars, restaurants and bus stop are about two minutes walk away, same distance as the port. We fell in love with Skiathos and Skiathos Living was the perfect location.

SL has great views across the bay. Good location up the hill a bit from bus station. 100m from supermarket ( away from the water) - better prices at this supermarket close to the service/petrol station. Reportedly good coffee shop next to it. The staff at SL were great. Very happy to help where they could. Our apartment was in good repair but friends had minor problems. My experience- disappointed by bed. Firm no cushioning on top of mattress. But I still slept well. We had breakfast included. Continental breakfast was enjoyed by all. Even enough for lunch. PLEASE NOTE. There are stairs about 30 ish I had knee op recently but still ok. It helped to strengthen my muscles. The staff help with luggage up and downstairs ( very grateful for this). Plus there are lifts when you get to the property. Quite enjoyed my stay. Great for getting your steps up. Pool was lovely and clean.

Stayed with three other couples. Very friendly welcome and helpful staff. Very clean and spacious room with fantastic views over the harbour and port across to the islands. Only a few hundred yards to restaurants and bars and also close to a decent sized supermarket.

After reading previous reviews was dubious about staying here after already booking BUT just shows to not believe everything you read. Loved our stay here rooms are really generous with plenty of storage,spotless clean maybe bathrooms are a bit dated but won’t ruin your holiday. The steps leading up probably aren’t ideal for everyone but are manageable for most and make it worth it when you see the views from the balcony’s and rooftop pool. The location was the winner for us 2 minute walk from bus stop 0 and 5 minutes to the town. Will definitely come back here and highly recommend.

Don't be put off by some comments, this is a 3 star property because it lacks facilities such as restaurant bar etc... what you do get is an amazing location literally 3 min walk to the port. Fantastic views from your balconies including the planes coming into land, and no it isn't loud at all, its surreal. Very clean accommodation with very good aircon. Yes the bathrooms could be more luxurious but then the price point would be significantly higher. You get a fridge and a kettle with some basic kitchen bits and bobs and there is a supermarket literally 2 ins away. A big thank you to Isabella and the rest of the staff for making our first visit to Skiathos just perfect. Yes there are 46 steps up to reception, but if you call them on arrival they will assist with your luggage. Lastly, if you have looked at pictures posted on here and noticed the very poor looking pool cushions, don't worry, as we left they had just had new ones delivered. Staying in Skiathos town in our view is the perfect option, as you then have the bars/restaurants and shops on tap in the evening, and you can go and venture out during the day and explore the various beaches.
