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!

Siamo stati a Skiathos tre volte e torniamo sempre da Despoina. È costante nella qualità, nella pulizia e nella cordialità. Lo abbiamo consigliato ad amici e familiari, e anche loro l’hanno adorato. Semplicemente il miglior rapporto qualità-prezzo dell’isola.

È raro trovare un alloggio che sia sia in centro che così tranquillo. Ho adorato poter andare a piedi ovunque—ristoranti, negozi, perfino la spiaggia—e poi tornare in una stanza silenziosa e climatizzata per rilassarmi. Un equilibrio perfetto!

Uno degli alloggi più puliti in cui abbiamo soggiornato in Grecia. Il personale delle pulizie ha fatto un lavoro eccellente ogni giorno. Il letto era super comodo e tutto funzionava perfettamente, incluso l’aria condizionata. La posizione è eccellente: a pochi passi dalla vita del posto, ma abbastanza appartato da garantire un sonno tranquillo.

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
