A beautiful, quiet studio in a perfect location! The Mandraki forest was behind the studios and an easy walk to the beaches (3 lovely, quiet beaches can be found on the other side of the Mandraki forest). Shop and restaurants close by. Lemon trees in the garden and a beautiful view from the terrace. Spotlessly clean - with towels replaced every other day. Heaven!!
This family-run apartment complex is set amidst lush green landscape, and right next to the beach of Asselinos. All units have a fully equipped kitchen and a living area.

fantastic location and lovely building with private pool, beach views and secure environment. very well looked-after with cleaning and linen changes 3x a week. Fly screens and cleanliness meant no issues with ‘creatures’.

We were collected at Skiathos Port by a member of the Avaton staff by a private transfer who was very kind and helpful - taking our bags and driving us to Avaton Hotel, Suites and Villas. Upon arriving at the hotel the reception staff were very welcoming and took the care in explaining all that we needed to know.
We were then showed to our room which was absolutely exceptional - a hot tub on the balcony and a bottle of wine on the house! The rooms are very spacious, immaculately cleaned and the beds are HUGE and very comfy.
Dinner at the Black Pepper was outstanding with special thanks to Tre and his team. He is an incredible asset to Philian Hotels and Resorts and we were so pleased to see him after visiting last year.
In an olive grove on the outskirts of Skiathos Town, 200 metres from Megali Ammos beach, Hotel Rene features a swimming pool and a snack bar.

Nice beach, but a bit overcrowded (in the number of persons / number of sunbeds). Although, in the see you don't feel the crowd.
Koukounaries is a bit far away from Skiathos Town (45 minutes to 1 hour the bus drive). small market shops in koukounaries are very expensive (at least 2 times more than a usual supermarket, while the selection of products is limited).

Koukounaries is a remote village surrounded by forest, 15-30 minutes walk to very beautiful beaches. I missed the seaviews and the nightlife. None of the properties in this area has seaview, because there is a lake and a forest that separates the main road from the beach. I would recommend to rent a car or something else to go to the beaches around. When it is very hot, it is not comfortable to walk 30 minutes under the sun. Bear in mind that the area is full of rats, especially if the property is in the wood. My friends ( 6 families) were staying at Driades and I was terrified to see rats in the garden among children playing. Not to mention at night! ( of course we have photos and videos)
I have eaten at Under the pine, which is nice and at Big Bad Wolf, where we have paid 12 euros for the bread! But the seabass and the lamb chops were perfect.
The beaches nearby are quite beautiful. My favorite was Mandraki Elias. Agia Eleni is a nice beach, too. Koukounaries is very crowded, but it is ok to go for a day or two.

Koukounaries is a fairly long road with relatively few properties, it's basically a big pine forest surrounded by a dozen beautiful beaches... there's at least two brilliant bars, more restaurants.
Great bus service, 20 minutes to town.

Worst hotel I have ever stayed in.
Worst hotel I have ever stayed in. No reflection of the photos on Booking.com and a complete scam. Our room had been double booked and we were told our only option was to sleep in a room allocated to staff with a broken shower, no aircon and ripped /dirty curtains.
Promised a 60% refund only to be told upon our return to the UK that this wouldn't happen.
Arranged with the hotel to be collected by the hotel from the airport to only wait 2 hours before being told make your own way.
Completely missold based on the profile and images on Booking

It is a small resort at the far end of the island with a few Taverna’s and a gorgeous beach
It has a water taxi from the beach to Skiathos town and buses every 10 mins to get around the island.
The tavernas are varied and a couple of bar’s one of which is mostly English and sells cocktails and English breakfasts, which personally I want to avoid when in the beautiful Greek islands.
Greek food and hospitality is amazing and I like to appreciate local dishes, Souv Lake was a lovely gyros cafe bar, on the way to the beach.
Would definitely recommend the area and would return, although for night life you are best to get the bus into town.
Situated in a peaceful pine forest, 10 minute walk away from the main road. The rooms are a bit outdated, but provide everything you need. There is Georges bar at the premises with George being an awesome host. We would cheer for Greece and Slovenia basketball teams on Eurobasket 2022 when the games were on, otherwise spent evenings over a few beers with George and other guest. Guests have an option of BBQ also. A really pleasant place to stay. Thanks for great holidays to all the staff. Best regards from Slovenia.
The location is excellent. All the most beautiful beaches are within walking distance. The Hotel is on a high position, so that there was always a very nice breeze and we could sit in the balcony almost always when we were in the room (hotels at lower level don´t have the same breeze). We hardly used air condition. The staff is extremely kind and helpful and really do their best to help the customers. Cleanliness is super.
The hotel is perfectly located with access to 4 beautiful sandy beaches. You don't have to worry about finding space on the beach no matter how late you go.
The whole area is very green and gives you the opportunity to properly relax.
The Grace rooms are spacious, well arranged and with beautiful terraces overlooking the sea.
All beach bars are very nice with large sunbeds and friendly staff.
The host was extremely nice and helpful. Rooms were cleaned every two days and we got new towels every two days too. It was very quiet and peaceful but at the same time only 10 minute walk from Koukounaries beach and 20-30 minute easy walk through pine forest to some of the more secluded beaches like Madraki and Elia beach.
A top quality resort of high aesthetics. Service, staff, beaches, breakfast are excellent- look no further! We stayed at a junior suite with a pool in the Grace complex but never got to use it - the sea is just perfect not sure the private pool is of any use unless travelling with kids. Overall, we can’t wait to return!
Walking distance to: 1) a couple of the perfect beaches (Koukounaries, Banana, Agia Eleni) with natural shade, 2) island bus station(s) meaning easy to reach or go exploring without rent-a-car, 3) grocery market(s) with fast food, 4) walking trail(s) with stunning views. Pleasant owner and stuff. Clean.
The location was great and the host, Mr. Kostas, a wonderful and kind person. Free parking just outside the place, approximately 10 minutes walking from the fantastic beach Koukounaries! Upon request, we had also been provided a baby bed. The garden was a great place to spend the evenings at.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was very good. The location is near the most beautiful beaches in Skiathos but we had a car. Without car, having small kids with us it would have been difficult to get to the beach.
The resort is looking very nice and the price was fair.
Beautiful setting, away from the main road but close to mini Market and several tavernas. Within walking distance of several beaches. Regular bus service to Skiathos Town. Alex and his mum were so friendly and helpful with anything we needed, and the studio was cleaned every other day.
The hotel has a great location close to Koukounaries and other beaches. Despite being close to the main road, it was very calm. The hotel rooms are in different small buildings which are spread across an amazing and well kept garden. Staff was always very friendly and helpful.
Nice small family hotel one bus stop away from lovely Koukounaries beach. Superhosts Mr Dimitris and Ms Roula are making everything you feel like home, we’ve never met anyone more hospitable and kind to their guests. Comfy rooms have everything you might need.
The apartment was even nicer than in the pictures, it had a very cozy feeling. 5 minutes walk to Koukounaries beach. The host was very helpful, we asked before arriving if there is a child seat in the apartment, it was not, but they ordered one.
it’s the perfect place to stay to experience the heart of Skiathos, everyone there is like family, George and Fotis couldn’t be more accommodating, it has everything you need and more.
Very close to Koukounaries Beach
