Villas in Skopelos
Skopelos is the largest island in the Northern Sporades group, yet remains charmingly untainted by mass tourism. Lush green hillsides carpeted with pine and olive trees sweep down across the countryside, earning Skopelos its worthy title of ‘the Emerald of the Aegean’. Its pretty white-washed houses spill in layers down the hillsides giving a truly Greek scene whilst the dense pine forests provide a beautiful backdrop for olive groves and wonderful plum, almond and citrus orchards. Days can be spent exploring the wonderful interior of the island, lounging on lovely sand and shingle beaches and discovering pebble coves. This unspoilt island is reached from the neighbouring island, Skiathos. Guests pre book transfers from Skiathos airport to the island of Skopelos via ferry or hydrofoil. The hydrofoil and ferry service from Skiathos takes a mere twenty minutes to reach the small port of Glossa at the island’s north-western tip, and a further 40 minutes to reach the main port in Skopelos. You will disembark the ferry at either Glossa or Skopelos port, depending on the ferry timetable or location of your villa.

- The route given to us for getting to the villa was on used quite poor roads. With an under powered car this was not great. We subsequently found better routes which were slightly longer but on much better roads would suggest you review the directions used. Car the provided was very dirty inside and out and poorly tuned, and had a broken wiper.

- The natural beauty of the island is it's biggest asset. The green hills covered in pine, chestnut and olive trees are stunning especially as they plunge down into the azure waters of the beaches below. We also enjoyed the wildlife we saw, birds (bee eaters, falcons etc), butterflies, honey bees, lizards and more. The main roads, particularly along the south coast are fun to drive and offer some amazing views, we also liked the beauty of some of the chapels and churches, the interior of the main church in Loutraki is well worth driving the winding road down.

- There is the odd cat poo to avoid in the main towns but hardly a big problem ; ) Some times as a hire car driver speed limits on the roads weren't always made very clear.
