Everything was perfect!

From the moment we arrived, Penelope welcomed us with a warm smile and genuine kindness. She offered us fresh juice and took the time to show us on a map all the best places to visit in the area. She even prepared sandwiches and gave us fruit to take to the beach – thoughtful gestures that truly touched us. Throughout our stay, she treated us as if we were her own children – caring, attentive, and full of warmth. Thanks to her, our holiday was even more enjoyable and unforgettable.

Road nearby is a bit too busy and noisy,but we slept with AC on and windows closed anyway.

This is an actual home,for living,not some rental flat. Two big bedrooms with their own bath and a spectacular master suite like nothing Ive seen before.All air conditioned. Huge terraces with electrified tents.View of the sea,100m from the beach! 10min to Old Town.Parking spot in the yard! Host Penelope was wonderful! Always available to help,clean or answer our questions. Leaving fresh froot on the table or making us sandwiches for our boat trip - best host ever!

Being on a main road it was a bit noisy if you had the window open. But the air con worked well. It was a lovely bathroom but only a hand held shower which was a bit temperamental and difficult to control the temperature.

Very clean and plenty of wardrobe/drawer space. Small balcony but another shared large balcony was available. Good fridge and tea and coffee making facilities. A very easy walk to the beach and local tavernas. Penelope or her husband were always on hand to help. Penelope was so friendly and charming - she made us feel welcome like family.

Penelope is an amazing host with a heart of gold and she makes you feel like home. Beautiful, clean house and lovely garden. Penelope really cares about her guests and looks after them. Also great location as it’s very close to Megali Ammos beach and to Skiathos town.

The room Is located within Penelope's home. The room Is spacious and clean. Penelope actually cleans the room every day tò ensure it's Always perfect.

So, it's important tò consider It. We absolutely loved our stay here! Thanks tò Penelope!

Kiria Penelope is the best host you could have. Always available, always there to help you. The quality of the whole apartment is high, even if not new.

I found the bathroom very dated and gloomy.

Nothing really.

Comfortable and spacious bedroom and beautiful bathroom. Very nice (unexpected) breakfasts. A lovely host who was always available and who helped with recommendations as to where to eat, what to see and how to get about using local transport. 20 minute walk from the harbour.

Penelope is really kind, take care of her guests like a lovely grandmother. If you need something she has the solution and information as well. The villa is clean, well equipped and comfortable. I recommend it everyone who wants a relaxing and smooth holiday in Skiathos.

Penelope the owner was so helpful and friendly. Couldn't have done more. Towels changed every day. Bed changed every few days. Bathroom cleaned everyday. She even made breakfast for us a couple of times which she didn't need to do. Also took us into town. Such a lovely friendly host.

Absolutely nothing!

Amazing location. Lovely accommodation. Clean and just so. Penelope is lovely and left us plates of fruit lots grown in the garden that surrounds the property. Left to ourselves to do our own thing but also lovely breakfast with Penelope and maybe a couple of glasses of wine in the evening. Couldn’t recommend more highly. Xxx

Where to begin...? Our stay at Villa Penelope was excellent. Mrs Penelope could not do enough to ensure that our family were happy and had everything we needed. I worked from the property from the first week and i have to say that the WiFi connection was excellent. The villa was spacious with 3 large bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, loads of storage space, a washing machine, living area , kitchen facilities and large office with a lovely desk. The property was very clean and well maintained throughout our 18 day visit. About 3 minutes walk from bus stop 5, 15 mins walk to the old port and 3 minutes walk to the beautiful Megli Amos beach. 2 small balconies and 2 large terraces with electric awnings were lovely. My favourite was the terrace with the view of the sea. The property is surrounded by beautiful gardens maintained by Mrs Penelope and her family. Thank you, Mrs Penelope for all your hard work and a fantastic stay! Sarah, Gary, Dan

For the size of the apartment I was expecting a more functional kitchen, although it's ok for basics( coffee, heat up some food/milk). But there is a massive BBQ area to counterpart this :)

Really clean apartment , with a helpful landlord who she gave us tips on where to eat and which places to visit. When we found a few mosquitoes in the bedroom she really did magic and made them disappear. We are two families with toddlers and it's a really well made family friendly establishment.

Our staying in Penelope’s house was perfect! Penelope is an amazing person, so caring and lovely! We are feeling her home as ours during the week! The house was very cosy and perfectly clean. Also her garden was spectacular! She make breakfasts for us and welcoming with fresh fruits after the beach! Just a dreamy experience! We loved it and we will come back again! Thank you 🙏

My issue is more with the layout of Skiathos than the house. There is a main road that runs around the island. It makes getting around easy - but it makes for a noisy road. If noise doesn't bother you, then it's super well-located to walk to near by restaurants, into Skiathos town or catch a bus to get around the island. If you're sensitive to noise or imagining a quiet village setting, this is not the house for you.

Penelope is more than a host - she is the Greek mother you never knew you needed. She was so welcoming. She brought homemade desserts, a greek salad and gorgeous veggies from her garden. This is her home, and it feels like home. The house, although dated, was meticulously clean.
