Arktos Secluded villa with private pool, Wi-Fi internet, away from it all!

Tolle Unterkunft, sehr gut ausgestattet. Der Vermieter Dimitros war immer ansprechbar und hilfsbereit. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Einsam gelegenes Landhaus mit weitem Blick über die Landschaft bis zum Hafen von Skopelos. Es hat den gewachsenen Charme eines Privathauses, nicht perfekt, was der Atmosphäre keineswegs einen Abbruch tut.Wir haben die meiste Zeit Draußen verbracht und den Pool genossen. Es geht ein leichter Wind mit Kiefernduft und auch sonst ist man in der Natur. Nachbarn bekommt man kaum mit.Zum Einkaufen und für Restaurants und Shops ist man schnell mit einem Fahrzeug in der Stadt. Ein Fahrzeug lohnt sich eh, um die Insel zu erkunden.Das Haus besteht aus einem zentralen Wohnzimmer mit Küche; 2 Schlafzimmern mit Klimaanlage mit je einem Bad und kräftiger Dusche. Das obere Schlafzimmer ist klein und gemütlich mit Ventilator. Alle Fester sind mit Moskitonetzen.Die Küche ist für Kochen und Essen voll ausgestattet; zusätzlich gibt es einen Grill. Es gibt ausreichend Handtücher und Bettwäsche; circa zweimal in der Woche kommt jemand und schaut nach dem Pool und tauscht bei Bedarf Bettzeug und Handtücher.Die Technik ist ebenfalls sehr positiv zu erwähnen: WLAN, großer Kühlschrank, Spülmaschine, Waschmaschine und die bereits genannten Klimaanlagen. Ganz besonders hervorzuheben ist die Erreichbarkeit des sehr netten Vermieters, der sich freundlich und sofort um mögliche Probleme kümmert.Wir hoffen sehr, dass wir diesen wunderbaren Ort Wiedersehen werden. Vielen Dank Dimitris

We LOVED our stay on Skopelos! If you're looking for a picture perfect villa complete with a beautiful swimming pool and four lounge chairs, with a view of the Skopelos harbor within a 10-15 minute drive of the town, you found your place. The queen sized beds in the first floor bedrooms with a/c units were very comfortable and the quilts beautiful. The small loft bedroom up a steep step of moveable stairs above the washing machine - also had a comfortable bed but no a/c, just a fan so a bit warm.The kitchen had some basic supplies and we did figure out how to use the stove but never did figure out how to use the oven. The well-equipped kitchen had a toaster, electric tea kettle. Assisted by google translate, we used the washer and and dried our clothing on the two drying racks with clothespins. Dimitris had a friend who escorted us to the house via moped - which was very helpful as we would have had difficulty finding the villa otherwise, and he also arranged our car rental. Dimitris was a wonderful host, super communicative. Note: driving up to the villa is an adventure, especially with a stick shift car and aggressive Greek drivers. We always returned before dark to be safe and had some trouble parking in the half paved area near the villa with the lack of traction and steepness. We continue to debate whether we'd just stay in the outskirts of the harbour town next time to avoid having to drive at all on Skopelos as much as we loved the villa.

A lovely villa and lovely pool. Dimitris answered every text quickly and resolved every issue we had promptly. We had a wonderful stay. It really is a beautiful spot with comfortable beds and everything you need for a really relaxing time.

We were bowled over! The view was stunning from high up on the hills looking down onto Skopelos at night as the town slowly lit up. And you could do this from in the pool too - fabulous. The main 2 bedrooms were a good size with aircon. The living area was small, but plenty big enough, with good kitchen facilities all presented in a rustic fashion. It was very charming. For nature lovers, lots to see. A fantastic view across the narrow valley where you could see buzzards perched in a Cedar or Cypress tree. There was not a night where i didnt see an Elenora's falcon flying over head, on one occasion very low, on another occasion 8+ zipping about trying to catch things on the wing, and all this with the sounds of Scops Owls nearby. As darkness descended, the falcons left but bats started zipping over the pool for a drink. One night we got in the pool (staying in a corner) with the pool light on and watched them dive down for a drink. There were lots of interesting insects too but fortunately very few wasps (July 10th). Dimitris arranged for a friend to escort us from the ferry to the house, which removes one minor anxiety in the journey and he made himself available for the whole 10 days for if we needed advice or had any problems. All in all, great place and great service! Completely 100% recommend.
