Mandraki was an amazing hotel! I emailed the hotel prior to arriving, and the staff was prompt in responding and were very helpful. From the moment I arrived, everything was wonderful. It’s a beautiful property, my room was so comfortable and quiet. The restaurant has excellent food. Koukounaries beach is minutes away. The bus stop is very close to walk to which you can take into town easily and get to airport.

good breakfast and great location. The staff were fantastic, we were caught up in the big storm and the electrics were affected in our original room so they moved us to a bigger suite. The staff had so much to deal with but they still made time to make sure we were ok

Nice beach, but a bit overcrowded (in the number of persons / number of sunbeds). Although, in the see you don't feel the crowd.
Koukounaries is a bit far away from Skiathos Town (45 minutes to 1 hour the bus drive). small market shops in koukounaries are very expensive (at least 2 times more than a usual supermarket, while the selection of products is limited).

Koukounaries is a remote village surrounded by forest, 15-30 minutes walk to very beautiful beaches. I missed the seaviews and the nightlife. None of the properties in this area has seaview, because there is a lake and a forest that separates the main road from the beach. I would recommend to rent a car or something else to go to the beaches around. When it is very hot, it is not comfortable to walk 30 minutes under the sun. Bear in mind that the area is full of rats, especially if the property is in the wood. My friends ( 6 families) were staying at Driades and I was terrified to see rats in the garden among children playing. Not to mention at night! ( of course we have photos and videos)
I have eaten at Under the pine, which is nice and at Big Bad Wolf, where we have paid 12 euros for the bread! But the seabass and the lamb chops were perfect.
The beaches nearby are quite beautiful. My favorite was Mandraki Elias. Agia Eleni is a nice beach, too. Koukounaries is very crowded, but it is ok to go for a day or two.

Koukounaries is a fairly long road with relatively few properties, it's basically a big pine forest surrounded by a dozen beautiful beaches... there's at least two brilliant bars, more restaurants.
Great bus service, 20 minutes to town.

Worst hotel I have ever stayed in.
Worst hotel I have ever stayed in. No reflection of the photos on Booking.com and a complete scam. Our room had been double booked and we were told our only option was to sleep in a room allocated to staff with a broken shower, no aircon and ripped /dirty curtains.
Promised a 60% refund only to be told upon our return to the UK that this wouldn't happen.
Arranged with the hotel to be collected by the hotel from the airport to only wait 2 hours before being told make your own way.
Completely missold based on the profile and images on Booking

It is a small resort at the far end of the island with a few Taverna’s and a gorgeous beach
It has a water taxi from the beach to Skiathos town and buses every 10 mins to get around the island.
The tavernas are varied and a couple of bar’s one of which is mostly English and sells cocktails and English breakfasts, which personally I want to avoid when in the beautiful Greek islands.
Greek food and hospitality is amazing and I like to appreciate local dishes, Souv Lake was a lovely gyros cafe bar, on the way to the beach.
Would definitely recommend the area and would return, although for night life you are best to get the bus into town.
Situated in a peaceful pine forest, 10 minute walk away from the main road. The rooms are a bit outdated, but provide everything you need. There is Georges bar at the premises with George being an awesome host. We would cheer for Greece and Slovenia basketball teams on Eurobasket 2022 when the games were on, otherwise spent evenings over a few beers with George and other guest. Guests have an option of BBQ also. A really pleasant place to stay. Thanks for great holidays to all the staff. Best regards from Slovenia.
It's a clean spacious apartment amongst natural beautiful surroundings. Yannos the host is friendly and helpful with all the local information you may need for a welcome stay. 10mins from koukounaries beach and 2 other beaches within walking distance. Bus stop just outside you can get to the town centre of skiathos within 20 mins for only 2 euros, friendly & helpful drivers. A perfect getaway place. Clean good self catering kitchen, air con, restaurant on site, comfy beds, nice balconies for each bedroom.
The accommodation is situated in a quiet environment surrounded by a large garden with beautiful pine trees. The noise of the main road can almost not be heard at all. The room was well equipped and had a pleasant temperature. Koukounaries beach is easily approachable on foot through the trail along Strophilia lake. There are plenty of restaurants nearby as well as a supermarket. Bus stop 24 is 1-2 mins on foot. The owner/cleaning lady was very nice.
The position on the beach is wonderful and your own pool if you don’t fancy getting sandy feet. Stathis has been great as has the gentleman who maintains the outside each day. This is the best place we’ve ever stayed in Greece bar none. Book this property, you won’t regret it. Amazing views, watch the sea, watch the goat herd that comes down the mountain each day for about an hour at teatime. Facilities are ideal and the beds were firm but comfortable.
The location is awesome, if you just need to explore the Koukounaries area. Using a car is optional, really. Quite a few beaches are within walking distance and the beach of Koukounaries (suitable and very popular with families / kids) is just a couple of minutes away. The view from my room was great, I truly enjoyed it. The owner was very kind and helpful and a bottle of decent wine came as a welcome gift.
Value for money. This place is beautiful and the owners are very nice to chat with. Like most of the places in Skiathos it's old but well maintained. You need a car to go to the port but you can walk to Koukounaries beach, there is a very nice bar right at the corner and a mini market for the essentials. We would certainly come back again.
The south facing private pool, all the rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean. High level of privacy. Being able to use the village hotel restaurant (excellent food) / bar.
Koukounaries beach is a short walk (10 minutes) away and truly beautiful. For those who like hiking, there are footpaths across that tip of the island close-by.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was very good. The location is near the most beautiful beaches in Skiathos but we had a car. Without car, having small kids with us it would have been difficult to get to the beach.
The resort is looking very nice and the price was fair.
The apartment was even nicer than in the pictures, it had a very cozy feeling. 5 minutes walk to Koukounaries beach. The host was very helpful, we asked before arriving if there is a child seat in the apartment, it was not, but they ordered one.
Excellent location, the bus stops just outside. Tassos the owner was so friendly and helpful, he met us on arrival and gave us tips for where to go and eat. Very close walking distance to all the best beaches of Skiathos.
