The villa Iliana is in a quiet residential area and amazing in every way. The owner Stamatis was so helpful, friendly and gave us all information’s needed. From the villa and the pool you have an absolutely brilliant view of the landscape and also the Xanemos beach. Everyone interested seeing the airplanes landing and taking off will have an additional bonus. The planes are quiet, if not silent and fascinating to watch. Skiathos town is about 5 to 10 minutes away by car and there are also three good taverns nearby. There are said to be over 60 beaches on the island and of course we visited some of them. If you are looking for peace and quiet on the beach, you should go to the north side of the Island; here are the best beaches in our opinion. If you happen to be in Skiathos town in the evening, don't miss seeing the film Mama Mia, which was partly filmed on the island. This will be performed several times a week in an open air cinema and you will have a new experience of how much fun you can have in a cinema. Afterwards it is a must to end the evening in the Main Street Bar, it’s a relaxing place, excellent staff and if the owner is there too, I’m sure he will greet you personally. The villa is a lot better than shown in the photos and we can’t recommend this property and the owner Stamatis highly enough. In total absolutely 5 stars for the villa, Stamatis, his entire team and the Greek hospitality. Thanks’ Stamatis with special greetings from the „lobster”.
