Skiathos is deservedly the most popular of the Sporades Islands because, despite its relatively small size, there is something for every one here. Popular beaches, with a wide choice of watersports, a bustling ferryport and main town, and an interior little changed over the centuries.

Villa Ekavi, situated in an enviable position on a hillside, with Vassilias Bay and Skiathos Town spread out below, makes a comfortable and spacious base for discovering the delights of this jewel of an island.

With four bedrooms the house will happily accommodate the larger family or a group of friends, and of course relaxation beside the swimming pool whilst the rest of the family troop off on more energetic pursuits is an attractive option.

With over sixty beaches to choose from, one is most definitely spoilt for choice on Skiathos, but there is much else to see and do. Regular ferries run between the three main islands, exploring the coast and interior on foot along traffic-free lanes and ancient paths, exploring the narrow alleyways and traditional shops of the old quarter of Skiathos Town, or watching the world go by on the busy waterfront, all these add to the pleasures of a holiday on this fascinating island.

Lazy days on the villa terrace, soaking up the sun and the view, or learning to waterski, it’s your choice.

NB: Kirki’s Residence is an apartment located below the villa with its own entrance and outside space.
