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.
Our stay at Driades was wonderful. Maria is a great host and she made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Her artwork gives the place a warm feeling and the staff keeps everything clean, daily. The villa is located in a peaceful area, with easy access to the beach and to the best restaurants and supermarkets in Koukounaries. The rooms from our maisonette were spacious, private and well furnished. And the kitchen and bathroom had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back.
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 accommodation is situated in a quiet environment surrounded by a large garden with beautiful pine trees. The noise of the main road can almost not be heard at all. The room was well equipped and had a pleasant temperature. Koukounaries beach is easily approachable on foot through the trail along Strophilia lake. There are plenty of restaurants nearby as well as a supermarket. Bus stop 24 is 1-2 mins on foot. The owner/cleaning lady was very nice.
The hotel is under new management and they are very accommodating, changes are ongoing to make the hotel one of the best in Skiathos, the staff are friendly and go the extra mile to ensure you have everything you need to make your holiday. George, Jonny on reception extremely helpful and Socrates who manages the breakfast and bar is so friendly and welcoming. Thank you to the management team at silver beach we had a lovely stay with you
Great location, close to Koukounaries beach.
View towards the lake/sea, you could hear the waves in late evening or early morning.
We had arrived late in the evening, however the owner -a very nice person -waited for us and showed the room facilities. The personel is also very helpful and we thank everyone for making the vacation successful.
Room was sufficient for a small family.
Definetely will book again when returning to Skiathos.
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.
had an issue with the rooms location at check in. we booked 3 room for a family in one reservation.. they located each room in a different building!!! luckily after 4 days they managed to have us move one of them adjacent to another. i liked the hotel location on the island and the general feel in the hotel surroundings. convenient parking.
The south facing private pool, all the rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean. High level of privacy. Being able to use the village hotel restaurant (excellent food) / bar.
Koukounaries beach is a short walk (10 minutes) away and truly beautiful. For those who like hiking, there are footpaths across that tip of the island close-by.
The property was self catering but the facilities provided are fine for this and there are so many tavernas in the area or further afield, why cook! Within 10-40 minutes you can walk to 10 beautiful beaches. The staff at the apartments are very friendly and efficient and if you do have any problems they are dealt with promptly.
Hotel was very clean, great pool and close proximity to an exceptional beach. Host was cordial and very helpful to accommodate all of our needs !! There were 2 Good restaurants near to the hotel which allowed us to enjoy the beach all day. A 10 Km drive to the main city for shopping and vibrant nightlife. Highly recommended.
We loved everything about this place, the food, the staff, the service was fantastic, and all the staff were always happy and smiling. Good selection of beaches either via foot or the hotel buggies. All beaches have comfy beds. The small beach, called Small Banana is for those that like to bathe without costumes.
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.
Kostas and his family were very warm and welcoming. Communication was easy and fast, and he kindly waited up for our later than expected arrival to greet us. It is located very close to a small supermarket which was ideal, and Koukounaries beach was only a short walk away.
Clean, Koukounaries Beach 10 min walk, comfortable beds, good a/c, kitchen, terrace, garden view, market 100m walk, manicured property, super nice hosts. We will be back!
The location cannot be beaten , view is amazing , Pool and pool bar amazing , easy access to Koukounaries beach with hotel free shuttle running until 18:00
