Reviews of Kastro Studios

The apartment was high up in the old town but easily accessible from the road. It was very cosy and comfortable and exactly as described. The owner is very friendly and helpful and everywhere is spotless.

Being fussy, given that there were four of us in the apartment, there wasn’t much room to sit right outside for breakfast, but there was a lower terrace that we could use if we wished and that had lovely views over the town.

Shower was tiny and no hook to hang the shower head. Bed was really hard. No kettle and balcony was very small.

The location of the place was amazing, and close to everything in Chora. The view from the balcony is astonishing, you have the whole Aegean in your window!! The staff was also very polite, and helpful. Photos of the appartment are 100% accurate. Highly recommended for staying when visiting Skopelos.

The soundproofing of the room, was not that great.

Beautiful view and comfortable room.

Poor Internet service. Kettle and fridge needed better cleaning.

Nice view

To be honest..too old. Not well mantened. The toilet.. the curtains of the toilet, the water all in the floor..not very nice

Everything was absolutely amazing, the only thing I would've liked to have known is that it's all the way at the top of the village, and when it's hot out it's a tough walk.

The only thing is that I think the pots and pans situation could've been stocked a bit better, there were only two small pots available for cooking.

Very nice host, there to meet me on arrival. Nice location with terrace and sea view.

Was quite a hike up the hill to get to

Great 👍!!!

Plenty steps

The location, with a sea view, was absolutely lovely. It was handy for the local beach and lots of nice restaurants. The restaurant in the square near by is great (see photo from our terrace) and you can hear live Greek music most nights. It is high up in the town, so you need to walk uphill to get there. If you have a car there is a road up above the apartment for accessing the place and parking was easy. Our host was very friendly and helpful and we really enjoyed out stay. The place was cleaned everyday and we felt is was really good value for money. There is no sign for the studios, but Google Maps got us there!

The view of the castle was lovely! However this was only from a shared patio area (from where we stayed, one of the family rooms). Hosts were very nice, quick at responding to messages.

When we arrived on a very hot afternoon, the air con wasn’t working. However this was fixed by the evening. We were put in one of the family rooms even though we are just a couple, there is only one air con unit situated above the front door so it doesn’t really circulate into the bedrooms. There are only a few plugs, only one in the bedroom which is also a light switch so was temperamental at times. On Monday, we were unable to leave our room because a group of people had gathered right outside our door, surrounding our drying clothes. This made us feel quite uncomfortable, especially as there was no prior notice that this kind of gathering or morning ritual would be taking place in that area. People were even sitting on the chairs in our private outdoor space/balcony, which added to our discomfort. This accommodation is situated on a hill so is a steep, hard and hot walk back up after going down into the town. Also very hard to find the property, no signs or anything. However, after messaging the host, she came to collect us.

I LOVE the location of the property, it’s incredible location, right amongst the locals and 10 minute walk to the port. Lots of steps as other people have pointed out however with such beauty views this cannot be avoided and it is totally worth it, and a lovely walk back to the apartment in the evening after dinner. The decor is also very traditional, relaxed and Greek. Very rustic. The apartment is cleaned daily. As Georgia lives down the steps around the corner, as do her family in surrounding houses, it feels very family oriented and I felt so welcome and comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble and the service was exceptional. The price was amazing and the apartment cannot be faulted for the price. If you want somewhere to stay that is very luxury with a memory foam bed and modern furnishings like a posh hotel this is probably not for you - if you want to stay amongst the locals and immerse yourself in the Greek culture in Skopelos this is idyllic. I would describe it as a home from home. Also the views from the balcony if you choose the sea view (which I would definitely recommend) are amazing.

The shower curtain needs to be repaired and the shower head holder on the wall. The bed is not overly comfortable but for the price these are incredibly minuscule details which are easily rectified and I would definitely overlook to go and stay here again - which is exactly what I will be doing when I return to Skopelos 🙂

The location was really good with a stunning view, it was very clean and a good space with a mini kitchen and a lovely balcony too chill on.

When we first arrived we were a bit shocked about no plug sockets as well as the WiFi not working - never a problem always a solution we found a way. The shower as well wasn’t great.

Stunning views and easy access to town and restaurants. The accommodation was excellent and loved the patio area

Nothing

Nice studio apartment with a great view overlooking the port and ships arriving. Very clean, well maintained. The owner is a nice hardworking lady.

The property is located on top of a hill. To get to it there is steep uphill climb with many steps. The entire upper part of Skopelos is reachable by uphill stair ways. If you are planning to cook for yourself there is a small kitchen that is functional, but needs at least one frying pan, a tea towel would be nice too.

A gorgeous apartment with a stunning view of the sea. The rooms were spacious and well equipped with pretty much everything you need! Georgia is an attentive host and a wonderful person - thank you 🤍

The mattress could be replaced as it was very hard but this might be my personal preference!

Location view staff and price2value

Bathroom and lack of cupboards

Stunning views Friendly owner Great location

No notice outside saying kastro studios so unsure on arrival if we were in the correct location!
