Small bathroom

Lovely location, easy access to bus, close walking to beautiful beach, friendly staff and very helpful. Stunning views from private balcony, quiet and peaceful.

The room was very basic, more basic than others we had stayed in during our travels around the Sporades Islands, however this was the most expensive accommodation of them all. The room was only cleaned once in our 5 night stay, it would have been nice to have at least had the floors swept and mopped more. The bins were emptied daily though. This isn't a bad review, because the hotel and staff were amazing - we just felt it was expensive for us to compare it to other places we had stayed.

The owners were lovely, really friendly and helpful. The owners really make the hotel and give it a real family feel by getting to know the family and being very welcoming. The pool and bar were great, really enjoyed spending some time by the pool. The food here is also good, would recommend breakfast. We had our own private terrace with bean bags and table/chairs which was great. Very authentic accommodation. Thank you for a lovely stay!

The price was a bit too high.

We loved the staff, Nikos and Elona. We are looking forward to come back.

The owner and staff were very kind, the room was well equiped and clean, it was cleaned daily. We had parking space too. The bus stop and the supermarket were close. The beautiful and sandy Agia Paraskevi beach was just 200m away from us. We were also satisfied with Villa Maraki's swimming pool.

Room didn't exactly match my booking, but nice all the same. Suspect more of a miscommunication between site and hosts than anything deliberate or disorganised. A lamp in the living room would be nice to create softer lighting in contrast to the bright spotlights. Shower screen would be better than curtain - the extractor fan makes the curtain stick to you.

Our first time in any part of Greece. Villa Maraki exactly as pictured, with the gorgeous pool by the bar. Our rooms were adequate and comfortable, nice decor, air con, and with all necessities, and we had a great view from our balcony. Housekeeper made our beds/emptied bins/changed towels every day. Only 'complaint' is that floors were in need of a really good vacuum to get rid of all the bits often left behind after mopping/sweeping tiled floors. If you suffer from mosquito attacks, you'll need to be prepared with repellent/lotion here. Hosts Elona & Nikos very friendly, welcoming, and helpful - also Elona prepares lovely, fresh food at the pool bar, and watch out for the cheeky side of Nikos 😉😁 Brilliant beach literally across the road (beds & parasols if you want them, lifeguards, and great snorkelling). Regular buses on the road outside in each direction to Skiathos Town and Koukounaries (good value at €2 per ticket). Lots of good restaurants in easy walking distance. Would stay here again.

On a busy road / steep steps (which was fine for us) but no good if you had mobility issues. Were asked to check out an hour earlier than advertised.

We only stayed one night. We were made very welcome and given towels to use round pool and a shower to use as were not flying until night. Beach was just across the road, near to supermarket and tavernas.

Quintessentially Greek well placed & well presented place

I’d say the beds weren’t very comfortable. And as I had a friend with me, having her use the sofa bed didn’t feel fair as it was quite small. But we moved after a few days to another part of the island.

I absolutely loved the hosts as they were super friendly and lovely! And it’s so handy because it’s opposite my favourite beach on the island. It’s not so touristy there so it’s quiet and chilled. There are also many restaurants nearby to try and a bid that picks you up and takes you straight into town.

I liked everything!!

Maria and Nikos are excellent hosts always there to help, guide us and even have a casual chat. The propery was clear and as described on the site. There was a tavern, bakery and mini-market just a few steps away. A very clean, surveyed beach with beach bars is available 3 minutes on foot
