Everything we needed AAA

Our eleventh trip to Skiathos. Staff very friendly and there to help 24/7. These are the cleanest rooms we have ever stayed in. Air-con excellent and very quiet. Situated close to bus stop 3 and a large supermarket, and also the medical centre but hopefully you won’t need that. roughly 5 minutes to walk into town and is all on the flat. Some nice restaurants nearby. Also opposite is la piscine art hotel and Crazy cow restaurant. We will definitely return. Thank you

This hotel in Skiathos felt like a home away from home. The owners are incredibly kind and welcoming (Mr. Giannis his wife) and the atmosphere is very friendly. We had a great time and will definitely suggest this super family hotel to all our acquaintances! Thank you for everything you've done for us Mr. Gianni and your lovely wife!

La stanza era piena di luce naturale e offriva una vista incantevole dal balcone. Fare colazione all’aperto ogni mattina è stato un vero piacere. L’arredamento è semplice ma di buon gusto, e tutto era perfettamente pulito. Un vero gioiello nel cuore di Skiathos.

I piccoli dettagli hanno reso il nostro soggiorno speciale—fiori freschi in camera, un biglietto scritto a mano per darci il benvenuto e perfino una mappa con raccomandazioni personalizzate. Sembrava più una guesthouse che un hotel. Molto personale e affascinante.

Ciò che distingue davvero Despoina è l’ospitalità. I proprietari si preoccupano sinceramente della tua esperienza. Ci hanno accolti con acqua fresca e ci hanno aiutato con i bagagli. Ci hanno persino aiutato να noleggiamo un’auto e ci hanno consigliato spiagge che altrimenti non avremmo mai scoperto.

Dal primo giorno, i proprietari ci hanno accolti come se fossimo di famiglia. Ci hanno aiutato con le indicazioni stradali, il bucato e persino chiamato un taxi per il nostro traghetto mattutino. Siamo stati immensamente grati per la cura e la gentilezza che ci hanno riservato. Grazie di cuore per tutto!
