Found next to Brooke Square in Skyros Town, this villa was built way back in 1892 and it still overflows with charm more than a century on. Much of this is down to the stunning view of the Aegean Sea that comes with the elevated position, which can be enjoyed in the garden, balcony or even out through the large windows that also bathe the space in natural light.

Some typically Skyrian architectural features have been retained — including a large patch of exposed rock in the dining room — but it's fair to say that the interior has been modernised over the years. This means that you'll find whitewashed walls, sleek bathrooms and a rather smart kitchen complete with an island.

Just two minutes' walk from the home, you'll find a pair of Museums, one devoted to archaeology and the other to ethnology and folklore. Skyros's whitewashed streets are pleasant to wander about aimlessly, but Magazia Beach is only a ten-minute walk for when you want a dip in the sea.

Famed for being the filming location of the blockbuster musical hit ‘Mamma Mia,’ the island of Skopelos is every bit the natural wonderland the film depicted. Surrounded by mountains blanketed in pine forests and the turquoise of the Aegean never far away, stunning scenery is the name of the game here. 

One look at this gorgeous villa and there will be no asking voulez-vous – you’ll be enchanted from the moment you arrive. Inside, a sleek modern decor invites you to kick back and relax in the bright living area, while upstairs the two bedrooms offer a magical wake-up with their glorious hilly views and luxurious bedding. With three bathrooms here too, there’s no chance of an SOS when it comes to taking turns under the luxurious rainfall showers. 

Step outside to be met with a spectacular outdoor space – you’ll find time slipping through your fingers as you chill out on the sunbeds and while away sunny hours in the L-shaped infinity pool. As evening falls, fire up the barbecue and retreat to the pergola’s table for an alfresco feast, before finishing the night with a starlit soak in the hot tub. 

With a Sonos sound system to delight any dancing queen, as well as Greek toiletries and Netflix to enjoy, when all is said and done, you’re in for a blissful time. 

When it comes to exploring the local area, drive ten minutes to explore Skopelos Town and enjoy a day by the sea at Paralia Glifoneri (a ten-minute drive) or lovely Limnonari Beach (a fifteen-minute drive). Fans of Mamma Mia can visit the famous Agios Ioannis Church just under forty minutes away by car, while Panormos’ crystal clear bay is also fifteen minutes away by car.

If you’re on the lookout for chic design, epic sea views and a beach on your doorstep, this is it. Perched on Evia’s seafront, this eye-popping seven-bedroom villa delivers on style. An infinity pool of dreams glimmers ahead of the stunning, architect-built home. Sink into an outdoor sofa with a glass of wine and watch the sea sparkle. Bliss. Or potter down to the peaceful beach where loungers are waiting. 

Inside, expect some ultra-cool styling. Bold prints on the wall and wood floors keep things homely and welcoming. Bedrooms are roomy and come with en-suites and ocean views. Whip up a feast in one of two kitchens, or fire up the barbecue.

Spend days swimming in the sea or lounging poolside. If you can drag yourself away, Anthidona is your nearest village, 2km away. Or head a little further to Eretria (25kn) for a dose of history. 

Beach House

For a characterful, scenic stay on a staggeringly beautiful Greek island, choose this blue-and-white villa with mesmerising sea views. Flourishing olive and palm trees huddle around the two-bedroom home and its pool, providing that all-important privacy and seclusion you've been seeking.

When you're not sunbathing poolside or dining on the terrace, enjoy the mood-lifting aesthetic that's carried through the villa. It begins with the punchy blue shutters and continues with the technicolour textiles in the open living space. We're particularly fond of the Persian-style rugs scattered across the rooms, adding a homely and bohemian flair.

The picturesque port of Loutraki is just a fifteen-minute walk away. Watch fishing boats come and go as you sip coffee at a waterfront taverna. If you're up for a drive, Skopelos town is forty minutes away – pass through luscious landscapes on your way, peppered with red-roofed buildings and traditional churches. When you arrive, meander through colourful narrow streets lined with craft shops and tavernas, overlooking the azure-hued Aegean sea.

A Song to Sing

Though the idea of being secluded on an island might not ordinarily conjure up a romantic image, this home on a Greek private island is quite the opposite. Located in the Cyclades, the estate stretches across 900 acres, enabling you and the rest of the group to rejuvenate in a picturesque and tranquil setting. 

Spend mornings meditating on the jetty before enjoying a cup of coffee with an alfresco breakfast. With plenty of outdoor seating options, there’s one perfect to every situation – stealing away for a romantic drink overlooking the water, reading with your feet in the sand of your private beach, or playing board games with a drink in hand. 

Inside you’ll glimpse elements of Cycladic architecture throughout the home, especially in the master bedroom, where the fireplace sits proudly. Though the crisp white colour palette and natural elements found around the house is lovely, the natural beauty outside is hard to compete with. If you wish to explore it in greater detail, you can utilise several cycling and walking routes or take to the waters by boat if you’d like to go further afield. For an even more unique experience, why not join a fisherman on his boat for the day? 

Engaged couples might also be won over by the private chapel and make the island their wedding destination.

Stay in a mini holiday resort, all to yourself, at this lavish home on the Athenian Riviera. Three separate villas make up the accommodation, all sharing plush outdoor space for the group to socialise in style. Pad barefoot around the manicured Mediterranean gardens, blooming with flowers, olive trees and fragrant shrubs. Lavender surrounds the pristine swimming pool and, from here, you can catch a glimpse of the Evian Gulf, flanked by mountains through the ancient trees. Dining is a delight beneath the terracotta-roofed gazebo and a fully-stocked bar can provide the sundowners. True to any luxurious resort, there are staff on-hand to arrange your every whim – a boat trip around the Riviera, at-home massages or perhaps a private chef.

Each of the three villas is a modern haven inside, with plush sofas adorning each living room and glass doors letting the sunlight stream in. The palette is a neutral mix of stone, wood and sea-blue with seashell curtains, maritime paintings and beachy ceramics a nod to your waterside location.

You’ve got direct access to the sea from the villa, so there’s no need to put your shoes on to reach the crystal shallows on the shore. And if you fancy a day trip to Athens, it’s less than an hour by car.

Surrounded by fragrant pine trees and aromatic gardens, this homespun villa is instantly calming. Inside, natural materials and a collection of relaxed furnishings come together to create a sense of grounding. Plus, there’s everything you need to ensure a comfortable stay – a compact kitchen for whipping up Greek-inspired lunches and two cosy, fuss-free bedrooms that tempt extra-long lie-ins.

The living area opens onto a covered patio where you’ll spend most mornings tucking into breakfast at the dining table and sipping a coffee on the bench. When the temperature starts to rise, make a beeline for the private pool and float about in the cool water.

Spend afternoons snorkelling in the shallows of Limnonari Beach, a ten-minute drive away, or head into Skopelos town for its picturesque horseshoe harbour, family-run tavernas and unspoilt coastline.

In the warm waters of the Aegean sea, Alonissos plays host to gorgeous beaches, ancient historical sites, and the vibrant port town of Patitiri. From here, you could board a catamaran to start an island-hopping tour of the Aegean, or you could take an eleven-minute drive to this utterly blissful villa.

Isolated from urban areas, this home really plays into the charming serenity of its surroundings.  Set over two floors, this bright white villa looks traditional from the outside. Sandwiched between blue skies above and the blue waters of your private freshwater pool below, the exterior colour scheme might remind you of a certain national flag. This Greek theme continues with olive trees and a welcome basket full of local wine and fresh fruits. Pour a glass to sip as you explore the grounds, passing below the shaded dining terrace and into the minimalist interiors.

Wooden ceilings with white painted beams mix traditional architecture with a fresh, modern colour scheme. This continues throughout the kitchen, living spaces, and upstairs into the elegant bedrooms. With open ensuites and views of leafy trees, you’ll love relaxing in these zen-like spaces after a long day out in the sun.

Fig & Grape

Umbrellas

One of a collection of four villas in the middle of the island of Alonissos, this home's surroundings couldn't be more Mediterranean if they tried – olive trees, herb bushes and rocky terrain fill the garden, while the dazzling blue Aegean Sea stretches out to the distant horizon.

There are plenty of spots from which to appreciate this dreamy landscape. On hot days, the infinity swimming pool will likely be the top choice, but the loungers on the terrace enjoy an equally lovely vantage point. As well as that, there are a pair of balconies on the home's first floor which also offer a superb panorama.

That's quite enough about views, though. Behind the villa's yellow walls, you'll find an interior that combines rustic features and earthy colours with enough contemporary flourishes, like the flowery armchair and abstract artworks, to stop it from feeling dated. One of our favourite features is the pair of Jacuzzi tubs in the bathrooms that makes it easier than ever to completely switch off and relax.

Of course, there's only so long that you can gaze at the sea before the temptation to go for a swim proves too much. Fortunately, the nearest beach – Tourkoneri – is only seven minutes' drive away. The port town of Patitiri is only ten minutes away too when you fancy a meal out in a seafront restaurant.

Once you've felt the magic of your surroundings, walk down one of the most idyllic stairways in the world and reach the golden sands of the beach. Serene and secluded, it feels like your own personal paradise on this glorious island.

After a day of sunbathing and splashing in the water, the charming villa is decorated in gorgeous seating areas. Taste the delicious bites of souvlaki, bread and hummus whilst you soak in the breathtaking views. Once sun sets on the sea, grab a bottle of wine to share as the sky turns from deep blue into a warm, dusty red.

Away from the luxury of the villa, the charming towns that form Skopelos are just moments away. Discover the enchanting tavernas for pretty spots to watch the island's sleepy lifestyle unfold.


Ocean Stairway

This charming little home makes for a wonderful romantic break in Greece. You’ll find this villa just outside of Patitiri in the south of Alonnisos. Sweeping views combine with the boutique feel of the decor to make this home unique, and a stay here memorable for all the right reasons. 

Wake up and take in the beautiful views from the bedroom window before moving out to the terrace. As you drink your coffee and nibble on local pastries, plan how to spend your day. 

The lively port town of Patitiri is just ten minutes away by car. You could rent a boat and go sailing, or even take a coastal tour on a yacht. Steni Vala is a wonderful fishing village nearby – an eleven-minute drive. There you’ll find incredible seafood restaurants and a seascape dotted with fishing boats. The beach is just four minutes away in the car, or you can stroll there in twenty minutes and take in more of the villa’s lush surroundings. The restaurant and cafe at the beach serve excellent food so you can really make a day of it. 

An afternoon by the freshwater pool here is rewarded with glorious views and a pretty pergola to shelter under if you need a break from the sun. The covered dining area is lovely in the evening when the sun is setting. When the stars come out, take a seat on the terrace and spot constellations until the early hours.  


Vines On The Veranda

A collection of three villas sitting atop a hilltop on the island of Skelopos, this address has a few aces up its sleeve. The first has to be the incredible 360-degree views, which take in the dazzlingly blue Aegean Sea, the village of Glossa and mountains covered in pine forests.

Thankfully, there are plenty of spots from which to enjoy this spectacular panorama, including a selection of covered terraces and the swimming pool in the middle of the outdoor space. You can even appreciate the scenery while indoors thanks to the large windows in each home. When you get around to giving it a closer look, you'll notice that the design throughout all three has a rustic charm, with wooden ceiling beams and earthy tones making for an atmosphere conducive to relaxation.

Although there's certainly an air of tranquillity at the address, it doesn't take too long to reach somewhere with a bit more life. The cafes and restaurants of Glossa take just over five minutes to reach in the car, while Loutraki Beach is a twelve-minute drive.




Terrapin Shell

Standing on the terrace of this lovely home, it’s difficult to look away from the view. The Aegean Sea sparkles in the sunlight, with neighbouring islands the only interruption to the seascape. This villa sits on a verdant hillside in sunny Skiathos and it’s an all-round winner. 

One glimpse at the outside area and it’s easy to see how you’ll spend your stay. Plunge into the pool first thing, then sit with a coffee and breakfast under the veranda. The views really are captivating, so don’t expect to be able to get much heavy reading done – we constantly found our gaze being pulled towards the sea. 

There are two beaches – Megali Ammos and Vassilias – within six minutes of the villa. We liked to stroll along mid-morning, which gave us the perfect excuse to shelter from the hottest sun in a taverna, sampling local seafood and crisp white wine for lunch. 

The town centre and its shops, bars and restaurants are just ten minutes away by car. History buffs in your group might like to drive eighteen minutes to Skiathos Castle. This medieval site is now a ruin but was once a key settlement on the island – the stone ruins look especially dramatic on the rugged coastline and the views are magnificent. 


Peach Hues & Blue Views

Skopelos is a picture-perfect Greek island in the turquoise Aegean Sea. You can look forward to sweeping views from the hilltop towns and charming eateries looking out to sea. This lovely home is a perfect bolthole for couples or small families looking to enjoy their stay on the island with some quality peace and quiet. 

This two-bedroom villa is compact and cosy, with an open-plan living space that leads outside. A pretty courtyard just begs for evening barbecues and cocktails. The villa’s vantage point on a hill means that the views are delightful, with dramatic sunsets. 

The swimming pool is private and feels secluded and tranquil thanks to the trees that surround the property, and the mountains in the distance make an impressive backdrop for your morning swim. We’re content to lie out in the sun – occasionally going for a dip or taking a moment to meditate – but if you prefer a bit more action on your holiday, there’s plenty nearby. 

The beautiful Limnonari beach is just fourteen minutes away and is understandably popular. Soft white sand and clear, calm water await. In fact, there are enough beaches within twenty minutes of the villa that you can visit a different sandy stretch every day of your stay. 

Skopelos town and port are only thirteen minutes from the villa. Whether you plan on setting sail yourself or just enjoy watching the yachts drift in and out of port, it’s a lovely spot for an evening meal and a glass of wine.

Whether entertaining family or gathering with friends, you'll love the pergola-shaded lounge and open-air dining area.

On the ground floor of this grand villa, you'll find a comfortable living area if you feel you've had enough sun on the terrace. A gentle sea breeze will drift through your home if you pull back the flowing curtains to let natural sunlight stream in. Inside, you will find curved archways and rustic chic with prevailing wooden details that add to the house's character. Walls and furniture are adorned with tasteful decor and unique artwork.

Beyond the Island

Indoor Pool

Courtyard

Perched on top of a verdant hillside in north Skopelos, this villa's incredible position brings with it many perks. The fact that the nearest neighbour is a kilometre away means that there's a deep sense of peace and tranquillity at the address, something you can really appreciate as you wander about the garden full of Mediterranean vegetation. As well as that, the elevation naturally leads to some superb views of the Aegean Sea.

However, the home doesn't rest on its laurels and it has enough amenities that it would still be a great getaway even if it was in the most unpromising of surroundings. The large swimming pool is sure to be the first of these to grab your attention, while a stroll about the outdoor space will reveal a choice of terraces plus a stone barbecue for grilling up some smoky flavours.

Heading inside, the design is a lot more contemporary than the rather traditional exterior lets on. White walls, floors and ceilings make for a blank canvas against which bold blue accents and other colourful touches really jump out. The kitchen with its breakfast bar is both large and sleek, while the balconies and covered terrace offer even more spaces to relax.

Although you could very easily never feel the need to leave the villa, there are distractions nearby should you fancy a change of scenery. Agios Ioannis beach is just under ten minutes away in the car, while the hilltop town of Glossa takes just over five minutes to reach and has a small collection of restaurants in case you want a night off cooking.

Blue Stripes

This home's sea views are nothing short of breathtaking. You'll find it on the Akropolis of Skiathos, perched above the town's terracotta-tiled roofscape and promising tranquillity. From the glistening infinity pool, admire sweeping panoramas across the pine-speckled coastline, out towards Maragos Island and over to the white sands of Megali Ammos beach below – a four-minute stroll from your doorstep.

A masterclass in indoor-outdoor living, this lavish home beckons you to unwind in the splendour of your surroundings. Upon entry, an open-plan living space instantly impresses with high ceilings and a contemporary design aesthetic. Here, floor-to-ceiling glass doors seamlessly blend the chic lounge and fully-equipped kitchen with the shaded dining terrace and infinity pool, creating an expansive canvas primed for entertaining. Upstairs, the state-of-the-art video games room, fitted with soundproofing and plush sofas, is sure to keep your clan entertained. 

We wouldn't blame you for never wanting to leave this pocket of paradise. Though, if you do fancy exploring, you're perfectly positioned to do so, with Skiathos town and port just a fourteen-minute walk away. After a day of adventure, enjoy an alfresco feast before heading upstairs to the balcony for an evening dip in the jacuzzi. Wine glass in hand, watch the sunset over the horizon before retreating to your sumptuous bedroom for a restful slumber.

Agape

Bicycles

Tennis Court

Part of a pretty resort on the edge of Skopelos Town, this home is a great pick for groups of friends or families. It's composed of the main apartment and two studios – one of which has wheelchair access – meaning that all your loved ones can enjoy their own space and make some lasting memories together. 

Each of the living spaces has its own kitchen area, so your guests can have some independence and create their own schedules. Step outside to relax on the terrace with a fresh coffee in the morning, or a final sundowner come evening as you admire the fabulous views across the bay. You'll also have access to a sparkling swimming pool where you can cool off on hot days, and a nearby shared tennis court – it's perfect for practicing your serve. 

Your host runs a shuttle bus into the port, where you can stroll through the charming streets and stop off at local tavernas for freshly caught seafood. They will also provide four bikes for you to use, should you fancy exploring the rugged hillsides and olive groves on two wheels. And, if you're craving a day on the sand, then head to beautiful Stafilos Beach – it's just 4km away and has crystal clear waters to swim in. 

Harbour Vista

Leave it all behind at this secluded home on the Aegean island of Skopelos. Boasting a lusher landscape than other Greek isles, this sun-baked paradise will provide a peaceful escape.

We fell in love with this home because of its awe-inspiring outside space. The infinity pool is filled with crystal-clear water that falls into a canal, giving the illusion of an endless blue expanse. A line of loungers beckons – put your feet up and sip chilled cocktails in the sun. With multiple places to dine al fresco, you may feel tempted to cook up a storm in the well-outfitted kitchen. We'd recommend starting with a simple Greek salad, or requesting a private chef if you'd rather leave it to the pros.

Drive to Limnonari Beach, a tree-fringed cove that encapsulates all that is special about Greece – translucent water, reliably blue skies and magical surroundings, to name but a few. Skopelos town sits at the east of the island, a patchwork of sugar cube buildings with terracotta rooves. Wind through stone-paved streets before finding a waterfront taverna to while away the evening. 

Island Idyll

Villa Cassiope in Vasilias, Skiathos is a luxurious three-bedroom villa that promises an unforgettable holiday experience. The villa offers breathtaking sea views, facing the sea and Skopelos island.

Grecian getaways don’t get much better than at this idyllic Alonissos home. Picture stone walls, olive trees and breath-taking views of the Aegean Sea… Are you ready to pack your bags?

The outside space is spectacular. The pool area is entirely private thanks to pretty stone walls and a lush canopy of trees. Dive into the inviting water and relish the absolute peace and quiet of this lovely home – and that’s not to mention the views. The far-reaching panorama of sparkling blue sea stretches all the way to neighbouring Skopelos and takes in the rugged coast of beautiful Alonissos.  

The large verandas and terrace ensure there’s space for everyone in your group, so while someone is swimming laps in the pool, others might be eating cheese and olives or photographing the views. The master suite has its own kitchenette and hot tub, giving you all the room you need – there’s even a home cinema system ideal for a quiet night in. 

The villa is just fifteen minutes from Patitiri, a lively and cosmopolitan port town. Head there to dine in the evening, or to set out on a sailing session during the day. Much closer to home, Megali Ammos beach is just a one-minute walk from the villa. This secluded little beach is the cherry on top of this home – spend the day bobbing along in the sea and simply stroll along the path back home for dinner.  


Alonissos Oasis

Of the Aegean Sea’s many islands, you can find some of the most striking spots in the Northern Sporades archipelago. Where rolling hills meet limestone rocks, almond trees clash with grapevines, and fishing villages neighbour vibrant tourist hubs, the island of Alonnisos has a lot to offer. And as this home is only two kilometres from Patitiri, where seven different ferry routes set off from, you’re not limited to the spoils of the local land. But when we say this luxury villa is on another level, we really mean it. 

Set upon a hill with breathtaking sea views from the peak, this house is split down the hillside slope as nature intended. Understated interiors allow the architecture to stand out – it’s not a single piece, but two fantastic stone buildings with two separate pool terraces, connected by outdoor steps.

On the lower terrace, sip margaritas in the Jacuzzi pool. On the upper terrace, power through your morning lengths in the infinity pool before an iced latte. Follow the path from here to your dining area, where you can serve up grilled aubergines from your stone oven. Or a few more paces away, find a covered garden with citrus, almond, and quince trees lining the lawns. A feast for the senses.

The Second Level

Perched in the hills above the Aegean, life at this breezy villa revolves around the endless sunshine, shimmering waters and seaside scenery. The swoon-worthy veranda is the perfect spot to nurse a cocktail and watch the tide come and go. Even better, there's a private pool for afternoon swims as well as a barbecue for alfresco feasts. When you need a break from the sun, head inside to the open living area and snuggle up on the cushy sofa. If you're more of a home cook than a grill master, the kitchen has everything you'll need to rustle up spanakopita and other Greek dishes. Upstairs, the balcony is an excellent place to end the evening with a glass of wine, while two sumptuous bedrooms beckon after a long day of exploring.

Skiathos may be a small island – you can drive from one coast to the other in under an hour – but you definitely won't run out of things to do. The deep blue waters of Paralia Vasilias are a five-minute drive away, or you can catch a boat from the port in Skiathos Town (a ten-minute drive) and visit the island's most popular beaches. Speaking of, spend long afternoons wandering along Skiathos' narrow streets lined with galleries, local craftwork shops and tavernas serving up the most delicious Greek cuisine. There's also a good selection of bars and nightlife if you want to hit the town.

In Blue Dawn

With postcard views stretching out over the Aegean Sea, this coastal home places you in a serene spot on Skiathos – an island beloved for its sandy beaches and bouncing party scene. Come and get a taste of local life when you drive five minutes to the port and charter a sailboat. Or, maybe taking a guided tour around the nearby landmarks is more your style. Staying here lets you make all those unforgettable experiences a reality. 

Perfect for big family holidays, this waterside villa invites you to take a break from your everyday routine. Spend a little time floating in a private pool, dining alfresco, and sunbathing with your loved ones instead. As the skies pinken above, just imagine slipping under this pergola to mix some drinks at the bar and toast new memories. Don't let travel interrupt your fitness schedule either, simply head to the shared gym to work up a sweat – but remember to pamper yourself with a massage appointment later.

Villa Europa Retreat

Exercise Equipment

Embrace island life with a stay at this fabulous villa on Skopelos, surrounded by luscious rural landscapes. With a convenient location and a perfectly peaceful setting, you'll feel at home in no time at all. 

The villa's rich orange exterior gives way to a stylish living space where you can truly relax. The wooden beams and tiled floors add some traditional charm, while the large windows flood the area with natural light. If you want to hide from the heat then it's the perfect place to chill out, but we think you'll want to spend most of your time enjoying the fabulous outdoor space. Plunge into the swimming pool and float beneath the bright blue sky, before drying off on a sun lounger. And, when evening rolls around, you can gather your guests at the alfresco dining area and serve up a tasty meal fresh from the outdoor grill. 

Hop in the car, and you'll find several beaches to choose from around the coastline – the nearest one is Panormos Beach, with its crystal clear waters. The island's capital, Skopelos Town, is only 8km away, where you can admire the pretty white houses and dine on fresh seafood at the tavernas. And, if you head inland, you can take invigorating hikes through the hills, discovering tiny villages and monasteries as you go. 

Carefree Summer

This lovely villa in Skiathos boasts glorious views out to sea and to the neighbouring island of Skopelos. With two bedrooms and a spacious living room with sofa beds, this home is perfect for groups of six looking to enjoy island life. 

Olive and pine trees surround the villa so as you lie out in the sun on the terrace, the faint aroma of pine fills the warm air. You’ll likely spend most of your time outside, making the most of the beautiful Greek weather and the villa’s inviting pool. A swim in the pool of this hillside home comes with spectacular views and a peaceful vibe. The only sounds you’ll hear are the water lapping the side of the pool, and maybe the gentle hum of an insect. 

The tranquillity of the villa doesn’t mean that you’re out in the sticks though – on the contrary, this home is close to everything you need. It takes just ten minutes to drive into the town centre, where you’ll find shops and great restaurants. It’s a lovely town to wander around, meandering the narrow streets and picking up wine for your evenings out on the veranda. 

Skiathos has sixty-nine beaches, all with soft white sand and tempting clear water to swim in. After enjoying breakfast on the veranda, why not head to the port? Every morning, small boats set off towards the beaches. You might find yourself in an isolated cove where you can swim and picnic until the sun begins to set. 


Island Views

Located on the north side of Skiathos, this charming villa in the heart of a quiet olive grove is a relaxing place to call home. Just below is Paralia Megas Gialos, a hidden gem of a beach that's well-worth the rocky climb down. Five minutes away by car is Skiathos Town, an enchanting village where cosmopolitan eateries, trendy boutiques, lively clubs and chic cafes promise plenty of action. From ancient monasteries to glorious beaches, there's no doubt that this is an excellent place to experience all the island has to offer.

When you're not out exploring, chances are you'll be lounging by the private infinity pool and drinking in the views of the Aegean on the terrace. Inside, Grecian character – think stone exterior, white-washed walls, wooden ceilings – meets 21st-century comforts like a jacuzzi tub and fully-equipped kitchen to create a comfortable and captivating space. Even better, your hosts go above and beyond to make your stay extraordinary. Not only will they pick you up at the airport, but they'll greet you with welcome drinks on arrival, help organise tours of the nearby islands and monasteries and assist with planning activities like bike riding, hiking, and much more.

Mystic Breeze

Escape to the luxurious Villa Io in Skiathos, where you can indulge in the comfort of two double bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious ground floor living area that includes a fully equipped kitchen, dining and lounge area. The villa can accommodate up to seven guests with the provision of one double and one single sofa bed. Step out onto the sea-facing balcony to enjoy breathtaking views while reading or relaxing. The ground floor opens to a veranda with exceptional sea views, complete with outdoor furniture. As a guest of Villa Io, you'll have exclusive access to a private swimming pool (7x5x1.5m) nestled in a 100sqm private area that also offers stunning sea views. A built-in BBQ is also at your disposal, making it perfect for outdoor cooking.

The Blissful Escape

Nestled away on the outskirts of the peaceful village of Glossa on the equally tranquil island of Skopelos, this newly built villa is, perhaps unsurprisingly, a rather relaxing place to take a break.

The terrace benefits from a sublime view of green hillsides, the sparkling Aegean Sea and a seemingly endless sky beyond that. Guests can enjoy this panorama from the comfort of a lounger, seated around tables or while cooling off in the swimming pool.

The plethora of large windows and doors means that it's even possible to gaze at the scenery from indoors. This also has the added perk of bringing in plentiful amounts of Sporades sunshine into the interior, which goes all too well with the honey-coloured walls and shiny tiled flooring. Bursts of colour come from the bold blue furnishings, the waterfall-themed artwork and an eye-catching mirror in the twin bedroom.

While it's possible to spend most of your time at the villa and be perfectly content, there are cafes and restaurants in the centre of Glossa about fifteen minutes' walk away, while Loutraki Beach sits a similar amount of time in the opposite direction.
