Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike about the property
The owners Ourania and Nikos were super welcoming,friendly and always there to help you with anything you would need . A few examples during my stay .. always offered coffee , free airport transfer , they let me stay in my room until 6:30pm departure , spoke to the quad bike hire place when I had broken down in order to direct the assistance to the location for the repair . Anything I needed I always felt like they would go out of their way to help and give good information on the island and resort . Couldn’t ask for more ! The room was great cleaned every day and peaceful setting . I had everything I needed .

United KingdomNothing but a small safe in the apartment would be an added benefit.
Nico & Ourania we’re so welcoming. They made sure we were settled in & then looked after us with a welcome coffee. We were there during the hurricane & they checked everyday that we were ok. They then gave us weather news each day as the only TV access was in Greek & the pictorials limited to the mainland. The free airport pick up & return was a real bonus.

GermanyI had a wonderful stay at this place! The apartment was very nice, and Nikos and Ourania, the hosts, were extremely friendly and helpful. They even provided an airport shuttle service for us. Nikos made a delicious barbecue, and we were treated to a plate of meat. The location is fantastic, being very close to the beach, supermarkets, and some fantastic tavernas. I highly recommend this place for a great vacation experience!

We liked the accommodation pretty much. The owners were nice and helpful. The room was big and clean. The WiFi was running well. The location of the accommodation is good: it is near to some supermarkets, restaurants or a bus stop no. 18. It takes approximately 15-20 minutes to walk to the nearest beaches. The price was also good.

United KingdomFantastic typical Greek apartment, all the facilities as advertised. The view from my balcony was outstanding. In a great location in Troulos close to all restaurants, bars and supermarkets. The beach is very close by too, gorgeous sandy beach. Buses very frequently into Skiathos Town. The owners were great, they picked me up at the airport which I truly appreciated after an early flight, no hassles getting public transport.

RomaniaThe owners are suuuper nice. Thank you for all! 😘Thank you for taking us from the airport, thank you for the very good capuccino and thank you also for the hospitality and all the informations you gave us. We had a very pleasant stay at your place. I recommand Villa Ourania for a relaxed and original greek atmosfere. You can find here all you need. It has a large garden, a space for cooking and the cleaning is made every day. In Troulos you can find a lot of tavernas with very good food. The beach from here is great and it is very close from Koukouniares Beach, Agia Paraskievi beach and a lot of great beaches from Skiathos. To reach Skiathos town and the other beaches you can take the bus. I recommand it because it cames at 10 minutes and you can buy the ticket from the bus. It is a very convenient way to travel here. We loved this island very much.

ItalyVilla Ourania is the perfect place to spend your holiday in complete relax. From the structure - which is comfortable, clean and near to a lots of tavernas and shops - you can easily reach the most beautiful beaches in the island and the Skiathos centre. Nikos, the owner, is very polite and always ready to help you with anything you'll need.

RomaniaVila Ourania is a fantastic place, very well located in the middle of a fantastic landscape, with access to 2 main roads. There are a lot of nice supermarkets and traditional restaurants in the area. Both hosts, Ourania and Nikos were very very nice, they were there all the time, ready to help or advise us, they even gave us cappucino from time to time. The Vila is also located not far from small Troulos beach, which is very nice, very clean, very quite, with a lot of tavernas with good food at good prices. Nikos pickep us up from the airport. The garden is also very nice and the terasses are large and views are fantastic. The rooms are large and were properly clean.

United KingdomAs with many smaller / older hotels, the bathrooms need updating but you expect that. They are often very small and water seems to go everywhere. However,for the money it was excellent value
Excellent location . Much better than other resorts I've stayed in on Skiathos. Troulos has everything within easy distance. Supermarkets, restaurants,bars and the beach of course. Our hosts picked us up and dropped us back at the airport for free, which we really appreciated. We also appreciated the fact that our rooms were shady because they were not facing the morning sun ( it was 28°+ each day so very comfortable for sleeping and sitting on the balcony.) Our hosts were always asking if everything was ok and how we were, which was nice

GreeceThere are minor things that could be better: The internet was unstable and the electric plugs are old and very few in each room. Also, the television room is quite small (we did not use it). Finally, the bathroom has no curtain on the bathtub, so waters are splashing everywhere
In general the villa is great and we are very satisfyied with our stay. The owners were exceptionally polite and very friendly. The villa is very close to two bus stations and next to it ther are markets, restaurants, bars and an atm. The room was very good, and the garden was to die for! It has a large kitchen and two separate rooms, ideal for a family of four or two couples. Also, it has large balconies all around the room.

Czech RepublicSeriously, no downsides considering accomodation. The only thing to consider for solo travelers is access to/from skiathos town. If you want to party there, you must keep an eye on last bus departures around midnight, or be prepared for long walk.
Without exaggeration, this was probably the best overall quality of accomodation I have experienced in Greece so far. Hosts are amazing, friendly and helpful people, villa itself is great and the location is perfect for a family or couple stay.

United KingdomWhile very clean and well kept, the bathroom is just a little dated and it wasn't easy to keep water in the shower when taking a shower. But I had plenty of towels to soak it up.
Nicos and Ourania have a beautiful house and were very kind hosts. I told Nicos I didn't have a beach towel, and he immediately ran downstairs and got me one! I really appreciated that and the big bowl of fresh cherries he greeted me with. The room got tons of natural light and was a peaceful place to relax after the beach, which is a short walk from the house.
