This is a house for a family that is happy lounging at the pool, reading and relaxing. If you have chosen to be on Skopelos island, you know you have selected a place where there is no nightlife or other excitement. There are a few beaches you can drive to, and in the nearby colorful village of Glossa there are several restaurants with good Greek food. The property has no close neighbors, so there is nothing to disturb you. You must be a little flexible, though. You should know that the half-mile access road to the villa is a very rough track, and you'll be glad that the car you drive is a rented one. This is not mentioned in the description because this is standard in Greece, and everyone who has ever rented in Greece knows what the roads are like, especially private access roads. Though you have a 180 degree panorama of the sea and islands, you are not on the shore, but on a steep hillside a mile or so from the shore. There are almost no villas on Skopelos adjacent to the shore, and those few are within villages. We rented this villa in 2017 and again in late summer 2018, and plan to come here again next year, so you can see that we love it.
