Hotel is located 7-10 minutes walking to Koukounaries beach, in a very quiet location. There are trees and greenery all around.The whole property is very green, very well taken care of. Our apartment had a lot of cute details. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Maria is a great host! She provided us information about the island and was very nice and kind.

My 2nd stay to Hotel Rene and once again it did not disappoint. Location perfect with the most spectacular views. Friendly staff, nothing too much. Will definitely be back 😁
Excellently located in a peaceful area, just a 5-minute walk to the centre of Skiathos, this adults-only hotel offers an Olympic-sized swimming pool and free breakfast.

Nice beach, but a bit overcrowded (in the number of persons / number of sunbeds). Although, in the see you don't feel the crowd.
Koukounaries is a bit far away from Skiathos Town (45 minutes to 1 hour the bus drive). small market shops in koukounaries are very expensive (at least 2 times more than a usual supermarket, while the selection of products is limited).

Koukounaries is a remote village surrounded by forest, 15-30 minutes walk to very beautiful beaches. I missed the seaviews and the nightlife. None of the properties in this area has seaview, because there is a lake and a forest that separates the main road from the beach. I would recommend to rent a car or something else to go to the beaches around. When it is very hot, it is not comfortable to walk 30 minutes under the sun. Bear in mind that the area is full of rats, especially if the property is in the wood. My friends ( 6 families) were staying at Driades and I was terrified to see rats in the garden among children playing. Not to mention at night! ( of course we have photos and videos)
I have eaten at Under the pine, which is nice and at Big Bad Wolf, where we have paid 12 euros for the bread! But the seabass and the lamb chops were perfect.
The beaches nearby are quite beautiful. My favorite was Mandraki Elias. Agia Eleni is a nice beach, too. Koukounaries is very crowded, but it is ok to go for a day or two.

Koukounaries is a fairly long road with relatively few properties, it's basically a big pine forest surrounded by a dozen beautiful beaches... there's at least two brilliant bars, more restaurants.
Great bus service, 20 minutes to town.

Worst hotel I have ever stayed in.
Worst hotel I have ever stayed in. No reflection of the photos on Booking.com and a complete scam. Our room had been double booked and we were told our only option was to sleep in a room allocated to staff with a broken shower, no aircon and ripped /dirty curtains.
Promised a 60% refund only to be told upon our return to the UK that this wouldn't happen.
Arranged with the hotel to be collected by the hotel from the airport to only wait 2 hours before being told make your own way.
Completely missold based on the profile and images on Booking

It is a small resort at the far end of the island with a few Taverna’s and a gorgeous beach
It has a water taxi from the beach to Skiathos town and buses every 10 mins to get around the island.
The tavernas are varied and a couple of bar’s one of which is mostly English and sells cocktails and English breakfasts, which personally I want to avoid when in the beautiful Greek islands.
Greek food and hospitality is amazing and I like to appreciate local dishes, Souv Lake was a lovely gyros cafe bar, on the way to the beach.
Would definitely recommend the area and would return, although for night life you are best to get the bus into town.
The location is very good, you can walk to Koukounaries beach and even to the beaches near Mandraki forest (we took the car since we were with our 3-year-old, but there were many people walking to those beaches).
The room we had at the top floor had an amazing view, the beds were comfortable. The hotel has 2 restaurants 2 minutes away and many others 10-15 minutes away by foot.
The playground was also useful for us.
The clothes rack broke during our stay and the staff immediately repaired it, Dorina and Eugen were prompt and ready to help.
Our stay at Driades was wonderful. Maria is a great host and she made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Her artwork gives the place a warm feeling and the staff keeps everything clean, daily. The villa is located in a peaceful area, with easy access to the beach and to the best restaurants and supermarkets in Koukounaries. The rooms from our maisonette were spacious, private and well furnished. And the kitchen and bathroom had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back.
Situated in a peaceful pine forest, 10 minute walk away from the main road. The rooms are a bit outdated, but provide everything you need. There is Georges bar at the premises with George being an awesome host. We would cheer for Greece and Slovenia basketball teams on Eurobasket 2022 when the games were on, otherwise spent evenings over a few beers with George and other guest. Guests have an option of BBQ also. A really pleasant place to stay. Thanks for great holidays to all the staff. Best regards from Slovenia.
Personally, me and my other half really enjoyed being here. The location is absolutely great, the hotel is also brilliant and George and his bar is just the best. He is so friendly and helpful! Cheapest bar in kouks easy and the best atmosphere! Overall we loved our stay and would definitely recommend anyone to come here's without a doubt! If you come skiathos then this IS THE PLSCE TO BE! thank you George and yotis for the stay! Absolutely loved it!
The hotel is perfectly located with access to 4 beautiful sandy beaches. You don't have to worry about finding space on the beach no matter how late you go.
The whole area is very green and gives you the opportunity to properly relax.
The Grace rooms are spacious, well arranged and with beautiful terraces overlooking the sea.
All beach bars are very nice with large sunbeds and friendly staff.
pets friendly! For us it was very important because we were with a small kitten. The location is nice, walking distance to few beaches, some restaurants and few mini markets (with crazy prices, normal supermarket Sklavenitis is just in Skiathos town, so you should take a bus, the ticket is 2€). The room is small, but has everything what you need for comfortable stay. Very good fast wifi.
If you’ve chosen to stay at Elivi Skiathos, here is the best tip: don’t expect this to be a 5-star hotel experience. Overall this is a very solid 4 stars boutique hotel - think this, and you won’t be disappointed with your stay.
The only one exception from was Tani, the manager, who was super attentive and prompt with our requests and needs and did provide a top service.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was very good. The location is near the most beautiful beaches in Skiathos but we had a car. Without car, having small kids with us it would have been difficult to get to the beach.
The resort is looking very nice and the price was fair.
The apartment was even nicer than in the pictures, it had a very cozy feeling. 5 minutes walk to Koukounaries beach. The host was very helpful, we asked before arriving if there is a child seat in the apartment, it was not, but they ordered one.
It is located in a forest, that’s why it was cooler in the hot summer. The property is also close to two of the most famous beaches in Skiathos island - Koukounaries and Banana beach. It is very clean and the staff are doing great job.
Lovely location amid a grove of trees, with easy access to Koukounaries beach, restaurants and mini market. Large apartment with two rooms and two balconies, all very clean. Yannis is an excellent host and a very pleasant person.
Excellent location, the bus stops just outside. Tassos the owner was so friendly and helpful, he met us on arrival and gave us tips for where to go and eat. Very close walking distance to all the best beaches of Skiathos.
The location is the only reason this hotel must rate as a 4 star. The public areas have all been nicely renovated and modernized. The pool deck is stunning and the view is outstanding.
The location of the hotel is perfect - walking distance to several beaches, next to the bus stop.
The family room is very spacy - 2 bedrooms, 1 kitchen, a lot of wardrobes space.
The location cannot be beaten , view is amazing , Pool and pool bar amazing , easy access to Koukounaries beach with hotel free shuttle running until 18:00
