Seclusion and Bliss

We were delighted with our stay here.. It was beyond our expectations and a pleasant surprise to find it situated looking out over the town of Skopolos. We enjoyed the walk up the hill each day and felt like we were retreating to our own haven. The owners were lovely and helpful and the apartment was beautiful with lots of the owners original art works making it feel very special.

Total Relaxation

What a unique venue and location. This property has the feel of a French Gite and is perfectly situated for a life detox. The walk up to the apartment is certainly worth the effort with the stunning views that greet you. The hosts made us feel at home and provide us with generous amount of their home grown produce. The island is spectacular and certainly merits a return journey. Cat lovers will be particularly happy as Ken and Barbara cater for an number of wild cats that live within close proximity to there house. Great holiday and will certainly return.

Best view of Skopelos

We had a lovely week with Ken and Barbara in their apartment overlooking Skopelos town. The view from the terrace is absolutely stunning and the pool a huge bonus for an apartment for 2. We hired a scooter which was fantastic for exploring the island and we ate at lots of different tavernas and restaurants in the town. Ken and Barbara are incredibly welcoming and such lovely people. They look after lots of local cats and spend a fortune each week on cat food. They are on hand to give advice when needed and are super friendly and kind but completely respect your privacy at the same time. Thank you Ken and Barbara for looking after us so beautifully!

Perfect getaway

If you are looking for peace and tranquility with lovely views then look no further. On our arrival Ken picked us up from the port and took us to the local supermarket which was much appreciated. On arrival at the villa we just fell in love with the place and the fantastic view over the bay and the added bonus of our own private pool. The apartment was nice and comfortable with everything you need including WiFi, another bonus. Ken and Barbara were on hand if you needed anything but not intrusive, leaving us to relax and enjoy our time there. The villa was about 15 minutes walk from the main town and the walk back up the hill gave you an opportunity to burn off some calories after enjoying a meal at any one of the lovely eateries in town. We hired a car to explore this beautiful island with lovely beaches and the apartment was the perfect base and a joy to return to with the lovely surroundings and pool. The apartment is great value for money and would recommend booking early to visit in 2019 to enjoy this little gem. Thank you Ken and Barbara, we had a wonderful time. Paul and Karen, September 2018

A little piece of heaven

Set high on a hill over the beautiful harbour of Skopelos Town - this hideaway is a place to rest, relax and recharge. Terrific accommodation, very private set in charming olive groves - a magical place. Ken and Barbara on on hand if you need anything but mostly all you need is quite, sunshine, swimming and Skopelos. Gorgeous Art Pieces adorn the walls ( all their own work) - to create a creative haven of calm and contentment. Very comfy sofa in the lounge was a bonus on the days it was just too hot..time to chill with a beer and relax some more. Loved the island - we chilled for a few days then hired a car for adventures all over. Lots of beautiful bays to explore and enjoy. We love swimming & snorkelling so weren't disappointed. Great walk down the hill - would recommend a taxi back up..it's just too hot..doable though if you fancy. Very quiet around, just the sound of the goat herd sometimes, the cicadas and the breeze to while a way the day - just lovely! x

Stunning location

What a stunning location. The views from the apartment are incredible, we spent many a morning watching the jousting between the eagles and crows which were soaring above the trees on one side of the house and the comings and goings of the boats in the harbour on the other whilst lounging in the pool or on the comfortable sunbeds. The apartment is a haven for two and although it is the ground floor of a villa occupied by the owners you feel as though you are in a private dwelling. Ken and Barbara were so kind and helpful and on our arrival Ken picked us up from the port and took us shopping for essentials. The walk into the town may seem quite arduous but it only took fifteen minutes to get from the apartment to town. We walked there and back everyday stopping at Swell Bar for a nightcap before we set off up the hill enjoying the night sky and watching out for shooting stars. Skopelos is such a magical place with many hidden gems, it was like going back to the 1980s at times. Some beaches were obviously very busy filled with sunbeds and waiter service from the beach bars but if you take some of the tracks from the main road down to the coast you can find some amazing beaches that were not as busy with such clear waters and clean sands. We took a boat trip, opting to pay more for a trip with less people on it and had the best day with LATO cruises around the island of Alonisos. We were fed and watered and taken to the most stunning beaches, we had a total of 14 people on the boat compared to others which had well over 40 people on board a small boat. Anyway, back to the apartment... We had an amazing holiday in an amazing place and would happily return in a heartbeat. Thank you Ken and Barbara for a truly relaxing and memorable stay.

superb the only word for it

My wife and I read all the reviews on this particular holiday apartment and couldn't find a bad one and its not until you go and see for yourself that you realise why. I think I can say that this was the most relaxing holiday we have ever had. Ken and Barbara were terrific they were always on hand should you need them, but left enough space to make you believe you were on your own. The apartment was clean and very well looked after ,we called it home and it felt like it. The walk back up from the town was mentioned in most of the reviews and it wasn't easy I have to say, but I am an over weight 60 year old recovering from a complicated broken leg a year ago, but I managed it every day for 14 days some times twice a day so don't let that put you off. Every time I reached the apartment I felt a little inspired. With the elevated position comes a great view and should you wish to lay by the pool you can watch the ferry from Skiathos arrive, complete a complicated turn to reverse in, unload and shoot off again. If you are thinking of booking this holiday apartment don't hesitate,the owners are wonderful people, the location is superb and the apartment feels like home. Enjoy we are already envious.

The most relaxing holiday we've had in years!

We have just returned from the most wonderful week staying in Ken and Barbaras 'away from it all' apartment overlooking Skopelos town, the port and the hills in the distance. With a wonderful pool all to ourselves, a view to die for and the company of our charming hosts who respected our privacy but were always on hand to offer advice about the good places to eat and things to do, we had the most fabulous holiday. Ken very kindly met us at the port took us to the supermarket to pick up some shopping before driving us home. The minute we arrived we knew how lucky we were to have found such a special place. The apartment had everything we needed and the air conditioned bedroom and ceiling fans were most welcome in the warm nights. The walk up the hill is a bit steep but great exercise and with the promise of a cooling swim at the end, it was never a problem. We wish we had stayed for 2 weeks and very much hope to return one day.

Private Villa with a Stunning view!

I am so delighted to have found this villa! For an extremely reasonable price - we had total private access to the pool and whole lower outside area and overlooked the best view of Skopelos Town. We were reassured however, not to be totally alone as Ken and Barbara are based on the same site. They give you total privacy whilst being around to help with anything you need. The walk from town is fairly steep and the first three nights - we'd walk in and get taxis back up as I am 16 weeks pregnant. The taxis would charge more because of the hill so we walked up the last three nights and it was fine! If you're a walker - you won't find the walk a problem. Ken also offered to come and get us if we were stuck. Ken and Barbara were very generous and Barbara even gave us a beautiful pottery gift for our baby to take away. It was a perfect babymoon and I urge people to book this gem whilst you still can. It's extremely to find private accommodation of this quality for two people!
