Part of a complex of suites in Skiathos, you’ll have everything you need here for a romantic retreat or relaxing break with a friend. Each villa is completely independent with its own entrance, so there’s no need to worry about running into other guests here. Featuring a private wooden deck, you’ll have your own pool, sun loungers and alfresco dining area, all facing the beautiful Aegean Sea. The island is known for its sandy beaches, and you’ll find a great one just 600 metres away, but if you’re a bit of a beach hopper you can catch a boat from the port to explore 68 others.

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.

Nice to haves

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.

Each bedroom has its own veranda, which makes for a private and peaceful spot to sip your morning coffee before heading out to explore. 

A trip to the Old Town is highly recommended. Wander around the maze of narrow alleyways and browse the array of unique shops and galleries, before heading to one of the harbour's waterfront restaurants for dinner. When you get home, take to the bar to mix a few cocktails, then sink into the sumptuous patio sofa to watch the sun set over the sparkling sea. 

Natural Ambience 

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.

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.

With your host on hand to arrange transfers and help sort out any coastal activities you fancy, it feels like luxury from the offset.

Umbrellas

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

Overlooking the big blue skies and sparkling seas of Skiathos, this idyllic villa is in a spectacular spot. The picturesque pool area is the perfect place for taking in the view – simply pick a sun lounger, sit back, and savour the oh-so-special scenery. Inside, the rooms have a relaxed, contemporary feel, styled with warm wood, exposed stone, and neutral hues. This sets a tranquil tone for your holiday, whether you’re taking things slow and recharging your batteries, or ready to explore all the island has to offer.

Infinity Retreat

Herb Garden

This elegant, modern villa, rather beautifully perched on a hillside overlooking the mythical seashore, is an ideal spot to enjoy a relaxing Greek getaway. We were immediately seduced by the magical vistas which can be marvelled at poolside, and we think this is exactly where you’ll spend most of your time. And while the pool is no doubt the star of this house, it is far from its only high points – we love the spacious and bright inside just as much. 

You’ll find this villa perfect for a group of friends, where each couple can enjoy the privacy of their own space, while also feeling the communal spirit. Speaking of which, what could be a more perfect occasion to get together than an outdoor feast on the terrace, with the warmth of a summer evening, a starry sky and the sound of waves in the distance. 
You’re sure to wake up well-rested, courtesy of the comfy bedrooms, each with a stunning sea view. 

When you can bear to pull yourself away from this sunny oasis, you’ll have plenty of options to keep you entertained: from beautiful beaches, the closest of which is a twenty-minute walk away, to bars and tavernas offering authentic local delights. 


Mythically Inclined

Villa Perimeno

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.

Outdoor Fireplace / Firepit

Wake up to the crisp scent of the sea air, the sight of the beautiful, blue water of the Aegean and the soothing sound of the waves kissing the shore. It's a sensory gift that you never tire of receiving.

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.

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.

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

Netflix

Surrounded by the majesty of mountain and ocean views, this villa truly is a dream come true. This astounding Grecian location offers every luxury and comfort, and gives you the keys to a genuinely unforgettable visit.

Wake up early to catch a sublimely magical sunrise emerge over the shimmering horizon, before whiling the day away basking on the sun-baked lawn on plush sun loungers. In the evening, sizzle up a storm at the villa's private barbecue, before stepping out of the front gate and taking a leisurely, meandering stroll along the neighbouring beach.

On days when adventure is all you can think about, venture out to the Capital City of Athens, where you can enjoy endless shopping, dining and tourist opportunities.

Sea Salt Cove

Looking every bit like a sanctuary with rustic stone walls, bohemian flair and breathtaking views of the Pagasitic Gulf, this is the perfect getaway for couples or solo trips. The kitchen is small, but it has what you need to cobble together light bites to eat alfresco. Though there's enough space for three to occupy the studio, it might not feel the most private. There's a shared swimming pool, and Karnagio Beach is reachable by car. The location also sets you up to explore the natural beauty of the southern part of Pelion.


The Pagasitic

Espresso Machine

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

Surrounded by olive trees with sweeping views across the Pagasetic Gulf, this home is the ideal setting for a blissful coastal escape. Set within a private estate, you’ll find three independent suites, a private swimming pool, a hot tub and plenty of lounging space to sit back and admire this beautiful setting. Housekeeping is included in your stay, plus the concierge service is on hand to organise sweet extras like breakfast, spa treatments and boat trips. You'll also be well located for explorations along the coast of Pelion – the nearest beaches and amenities are just a short drive away.

The Fresh Light

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. 

Seaside Triptych

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

Bathrobes

Throws

Escape the island's crowds and discover the quiet coastlines and dramatic terrain of Greece's mainland peninsular instead at this hideaway nestled high in the hillsides of Pelion. Commanding the most astonishing views of the sea, and with a picture-perfect village just a short stroll away, settings don't get much more idyllic than this.

Savour long, lazy lunches beneath the pergola. Slope away to the hammock beneath the mulberry tree and lose yourself in a good book. Or beat the heat with a dip in the infinity pool. Wherever you choose to be, those views will be right there. 

Inside, while this home may not be the most luxurious in our portfolio, it brings all the rustic charm that you'd hope from a sleepy mountain village abode. Beneath the villa's exposed wooden rafters, bespoke carpentry and statement lighting fuse together for a refreshing touch of modernity. And there's everything you need to rustle up a bite to eat in the compact but well-equipped, modern kitchen.

When it's time for adventure, seek out the hiking trails lacing through the surrounding hillsides. Take an amble into the dreamy village of Agios Geogrios Nilia (seven minutes on foot) for a feast in its traditional tavernas. Or follow the winding mountain roads down through the clouds and chestnut forests to the sandy beaches (half an hour's drive).

Up, Up & Away

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

This large Greek villa sits on a private plot of land affording you a perfectly peaceful stay, complete with a grassy area for children to play in. Relax beside the pool in the warmth of the sunshine before slipping into the cooling waters of your private pool from which you can enjoy more of the stunning views. Take in your surroundings from three different terrace areas that are shaded by pergolas, read a good book from the comfort of a hammock or get some work done in the office space – just try not to get distracted by the amazing panoramic vista outside the window.
 
This home even offers a vegetable garden with organic, fresh produce and a fragrant herb garden – ensuring your meals here will always be home-grown, flavoursome and delicious. Why not take full advantage of the barbecue and stone pizza oven to cook alfresco in the evenings before dining outside with a view of the turquoise ocean?

If you do want to venture out for the day and head to the beach, it's just a twenty-minute drive away – or drive a little further to Volos and learn some history at the Archaeological Museum.
