This gorgeous little villa apartment overlooks the glittering Aegean sea, and is perfect for those who want somewhere that's just as cosy as it is beautiful. Surrounded by spectacular views, you'll be rearing to explore Skiathos Island. Set in a complex of two villas, both bedrooms in this home have their own private entrances, with a common sitting and dining area and a sea view that will make you never want to look away. Enjoy home-cooked meals as you gaze out at the Aegean horizon, whether you whip up a small snack with the well-equipped kitchenette inside the living space or ask your host to deliver you some wonderful local meals to try. Although there is another villa in this complex, it has its own private pool so you'll have this one all to yourself. Go for a dip, rinse off with the outdoor shower and dry off on the sun loungers as the Greek sun beats down. This home lends itself perfectly to those who are hoping to explore the beauty and magic of this island and the rest of the Sporades archipelago. There's plenty to do, from water sports at the beaches on the island's southern side where you can try your hand at paragliding and waterskiing, to hiking through the lush countryside and seeing sights you'll never forget. You may not be able to cook up any feasts at the villa, but you won't have to – you'll be close to some fantastic restaurants and bars, where you can discover your new favourite meal.
