We were unpleasantly surprised by the place. It is old and very dark. The two windows overlook a dark ally. There is one aircondition for three rooms so in order to cool the rooms all doors should be open. In the bedroom where I was sleeping, the door could not open completely due to the bed behind it. Also, in the whole apartment there are two sockets to charge mobile phones etc. both of which are located in the kitchen. The bathroom is very basic, the curtain for the shower is too short, causing all the water to run onto the bathroom floor.

Amazing location, overlooking the bay of Skopelos. The property is structured in various levels and includes several, different rooms. You have the choice of losing yourself in the beautiful streets of the town, or reaching it with your own vehicle via the road right above it.
We were offered the option to pay by card, which came as a surprise as it was not mentioned on booking.com.
There was no shampoo in the room, neither is shampoo offered. Remember to bring it with you! There is no super market nearby, so we had to climb up and down the town to get some. Also, no hairdryer is available and the shower's curtain was not really closing.

The complex of apartments is run by a family and it is situated on a hill so it has amazing views of the harbour, the sea and the castle when you walk around the edges. The place has a nice feel as you are surrounded by flowers, trees and plants, meanwhile there is a small chapel that is the jewel of the family with holy icons in. The apartment had two bedrooms but we only used one of them. The owners are really lovely and friendly.
In order to get there by foot from the harbour you will need to go through a torture! It is not mentioned when you book that the accommodation is situated on a steep hill and in order to get there you need to go through meandered cobbled streets with luggage under the hot sun. There are just a few taxis in the island and so hard to find them, meanwhile renting a car is extremely expensive during peak season. It is definitely not a 10 minutes walk, there is not a sign on the entrance and the gps does not work up there! A horror when we needed to go back when returning from town.
Also, there was only one aircondition in the sitting area that it is in the same area as the kitchen, none in the bedrooms and in order to keep the room cool with the hot water you needed to have it open all the time which is not good for the environment.
The bathroom was old, small, outdated and for ventilation had a whole on the ceiling! (what if a mouse decided to sneak in from there?)
The door to the apartment was chipped and rusty with gaps and if anyone decided to barge in they could easily do that!
The kitchen was old as well with basic stuff missing and definitely it wouldn't have been easy to cook inside in the case we wanted to do that (it only had an electric appliance).
No toiletries apart from small hand soaps, which is unacceptable as there is nothing around to go and buy stuff, instead you need to climb all the way down to town and climb back up! It was a coincidence that we brought our own this time!
No hairdryer!
The lighting was so depressing and yellowish making you feel trapped.
The worst thing though was that it had only one plug for charging devices in the whole 2-bedroom apartment and that was situated in the kitchen!! The owners will certainly need to think about improving the place.

A very nice place to stay, clean and perfect and the owner and her daughter is very nice person and you feel very welcome. The view from my balcony was amazing (studio, room 5) and I spent many evenings looking at this beautiful town and the harbour 🙏🏽
Thank you for a lovely stay, I totally recommend this place !
The wifi was so so really, otherwise worth every penny and nothing to complain about!!!

It was close to main area in Skopelos town and could walk to the main area as long as you had a good sense of direction as lots of winding pathways. So picturesque and beautiful. All were friendly
Nothing. It was very clean and large for our family of 4

Great sea views from the terrace. Very reasonable for a two bed apartment just a short uphill walk from the centre of town.
Air con supplied free of charge.

Location, spectacular view. Spacious.
The taps, the A/C location and the fact that there were not enough electric plugs
6.0
The view was very nice and the room was very clean.
The mattress was extremely hard and the A/C unit was located directly in front of the bed, making it impossible to sleep. Also there was a total of 2 sockets in the room so changing any devices was difficult.

The location was fantastic, the view was amazing. The owner was friendly and mrs. Georgia’s husband came at the port to pick us up. They gave us tips for the places we had to visit during our stay.
Super clean, everything was smelling so fresh and clean.
Thank you for everything. Totally visiting again.
Nothing!!

Living with the greek. The area still is an authentic place with many locals. There is a great balcony with beautiful view. It is a basic and spacey appartment In the wind of the sea. Friendly owner.
There is no airco, wich is not a
Problem when the doors are open. The seawind is a natural cooling system. Can be warm in the night.
