Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Skyros

Great place out of season, no other tourists, great beach and lovely fully equipped first floor flat. Basic food essentials provided , two toilets and comfortable beds. Anna's mum ( qui parle un peu français) was really friendly and helpful. We arrived in the dark on foot and it was bit tricky finding the right property, but if you want peace and quiet it's a small price to pay !

It was a real experience to stay at Nikos' house, it is very traditional. Mind your head though if you are over 1.80 tall. Nikos is a real super host and I loved every single minute of my two week stay here, but if you're looking for luxury don't book it. If you would like to experience a traditional house on Skyros, you must book it. Everything is on walking distance, if you walk well. Thank you Nikos for your hospitality!

Great Olga! She was interested if we had arrived at the house well, she was there when we needed her, she responded immediately and overall it was like she was there. The house is spotless in a great location. The bathroom was a little difficult for us, but everything else pays off! Thanks so much for everything!

🙏🏻!!! Perfect for me and two teenagers. Could have accommodated more people. Just up the hill from Calypso which, arguably, is the center of the universe. 🙂.

Great stay! Mrs. Georgia is very hospitable. He was waiting for us when we arrived with cookies and sweets! The house in a very convenient spot, very comfortable and beautiful. Highly recommended!

Fantastic stay, the hosts were wonderful, even though we never met them, we still felt very looked after. They even give us gifts of local delights. The location is perfect access to town and the beach, but still very quiet. We felt like locals staying in this perfect traditional home of the skyrians. I’ve been coming to Skyros for 40 years and this was my favourite experience. We highly recommend this place.

The house is a small paradise. Inside the pines in the greenest part of the island and just fifty meters from the sea. Konstantinos very helpful and available immediately when we needed. The space is exactly what the photos show. We had a great time thanks for the beautiful stay.

excellent host, ideal house location, traditional vibes

We stayed with Nadia and her family for 2 weeks and it was a real joy, all in bohemian and simplicity. The view from the apartment is beautiful, it is conveniently located between Kalamitsa and Linaria, a quiet place away from any tourist overcrowding. After browsing the whole island for a month, this is the place we preferred and will definitely be back in. We would like to thank Nikos, Soula, Dimitris and Nadia for all their little touches and for the time they have givenus.

We stayed at Mary's place for a week, two persons; and the place was a perfect choice for our trip to Skyros. Its location is very convenient, at the start of the pedestrian road through Skyros' beautiful Chora, near the bus and taxi station and close to grocery stores, etc. And despite all the activity in the area, the house is very quiet. The place is spacious, good for more than two persons. It was perfectly clean and very well equipped. The WiFi was fast and there is a TV screen. And beyond the AC, the bedroom has a ceiling fan, which we liked. The terrace is very beautiful, with a large table under a lemon tree and with sufficient shade during most of the daytime. Best, we loved the hospitality of Mary's grandmother. Mrs Maria welcomed us cordially, showed us the place, offered us home-made orange pie and gave us some fruits. Plus, it was easy to reach her for any questions we had. In total, we loved our stay at Mary's place; and we will choose it again in another trip to Skyros.

Kalliopi is excellent, very communicative, friendly and very willing to help with everything, from instructions to find the house to suggestions for restaurants, beaches, exit for drinks, etc. The house is wonderful, sparkling clean in all areas, soft beds, double pillows to everyone! Equipped with everything from espresso machine to ironing board! Delightful beds, sparkling white sheets, fuzzy scent towels, you feel like you're in your own home! Splendid view from the balconies of the house, from the front you see the Castle and from the back the houses of Chora from above! It is in the Country right in front of all the shops, you come out and you are in the alleys of Chora, but at the same time it is quiet there is no noise upstairs. Very kind to welcome Kalliopi with Skyrian sweets! Skyros is a very beautiful island and especially Chora magic! I plan to come back to Kalliopi of course! Kalliopi, thank you all for your hospitality and a comfortable stay!

Beautiful design and atmosphere!!! Very clean and well-maintained with a friendly and helpful host!!! And the location 3 min walk to the shops,the square!!! I can't wait to go back🫶

Everything was great. Irini welcomed us very warmly. The entire time we stayed there was very discreet. Fantastic view from the balcony. The tavern of K. Stamatia next to the accommodation was one of the best on the island and from prices and flavors!

Kostas was very present for us and offered us a real skyrian experience. My son had a small accident but thanks to Kostas who was there to assist us in this inconvenience, and a very caring medical team, everything went well in the end and we were able to continue our vacation. I enjoyed the terrace and its mountain view. The place is very peaceful and I loved the sound of nature. However, we are two steps from the central street of the village. I loved the small, steep and flowery labyrinthine streets. Coming down we are a few minutes from the beach and its restaurants. I also enjoyed renting an electric bike, going to Agios Petros beach and lunch at the tavern. Not to mention diving with great Gorgonia. Great host , great stay and bright Skyros 🤩

Anestis was very quick to respond to messages and answered all our questions. He was very friendly and we felt comfortable from the beginning. The room is small but very comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the view on the terrace from where the beach can be seen. We were very close to the cantina where it has very good coffee and affordable breakfast, but also to other shops for purchases. The room is centrally located on the street and has space for parking, so we were easy to move to all other areas such as Linaria and Chora.

Lina is friendly and communicative! The space was like in the descriptions. The view from the balcony was fantastic. Due to the location that is high and very quiet, it is also recommended for families!

Very good stay. Welcoming host. We communicated through the Viber app. Free and easy street parking (one-way street and parking on both sides of the street). Street a little noisy. Café right next door. 2 bakeries within walking distance. 10 min/30 min from the different climbing sectors. 15 minutes from the sea. Gas station 2 minutes away. Grocery store at the entrance to the village with very good prices. The bedding of the 2 beds will need to be changed.

Great studio apartment, hot shower, very comfortable bed, right above the climbing shop, short drive to climbing sectors. Large balcony for morning sun, numerous cafes and shops nearby. We would definitely stay here again. Just a note, we missed it in the listing info, wifi is not included.

Hélène's place is really tred clean and tidy! Check-in and check-out are very easy as there is a box (code) for the key. Hélène and the villagers welcomed us very well and offered us different Greek specialties. She was very nice and was responsive and available. Notice to gourmands, the village is rich in bakeries, bars and contains some supermarkets as well as butchers. In the morning, a good smell of boulabgerie comes to awaken our senses, yum! We had a very pleasant stay!

Mariannas' place is amazing. The house overlooks the Aegean and if you are an early rise you'll have a chance to witness some of the most amazing sunrises of your life from the amazing balconies. It is exceptionally decorated and you'll feel right at home. The only downside is the difficult access due to lack of proper roads but if you have an SUV you'll be fine. In general you must have a car to access the amazing beaches nearby like Korasida, Kalamos, Mourteri etc. There is also a small kind of private beach down the road from the house but the trail is steep and not easily accessed. Marianna and her husband are excellent hosts. A fantastic plate of fruit and a bottle of wine was waiting for us at our arrival but they didn't stop to that. They even have a treat for our baby girl and a couple of toys for our German Shepherd. So if you wish to spend time gazing at amazing views and have access to stunning beaches in just 15-30' drive go on. You'll not regret it.
