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.
