Luxury holidays to Skopelos

Luxury Villas

With no airport on Skopelos, hotel development has remained delightfully slow with accommodation to be found in a clutch of villas dotted across the island. The luxury here will come in the form of stone sun terraces, barbecues by the pool and sweeping views overlooking the green slopes of Mount Palouki. Take the stylish Skopelos Village Hotel. It’s just a short walk from Skopelos Town’s harbour and mixes boutique charm with traditional whitewashed buildings.

Skopelos Highlights

Skopelos Town is the island’s capital, packed with blue-shuttered cottages that tumble down to the harbour. There’s a Venetian castle on the hilltop sitting above Kastro, the town’s old quarter. At night the city springs into life with lively bars and restaurants. For beaches, there’s a medley of rocky shores and pebbly coves, with the best stretches of sand along the island’s south and west coasts.
