Villa Thalia, piscina privata, situata tra Palio Klima e Glossa, Skopelos
Villa Thalia è una villa tradizionale piena di carattere e fascino, esposta a ovest e benedetta da tramonti gloriosi. È stato completamente rinnovato da un noto architetto francese. Una grande terrazza da pranzo, con un pergolato coperto da buganvillea e fiori della Passione, offre molta ombra. La piscina privata a forma di rene, 8x4m. situato nella parte più bella della proprietà, è circondato da ulivi e cipressi che danno ombra alle aree salotto. Un barbecue è incorporato nel muro di pietra che circonda i giardini e dispone di una propria area salotto. La villa principale ha un ampio soggiorno con un camino originale, che ha ancora la tradizionale area di cottura costruita all'interno. Una cucina a pianta aperta ben attrezzata con una zona pranzo ad angolo ... La porta della cucina si apre sulla terrazza da pranzo. Dal salotto, una scala in pietra conduce al secondo livello, dove la porta d'ingresso fornisce un secondo ingresso alla villa. La camera da letto principale al piano superiore ha pavimenti in legno e alti soffitti con travi a vista con porte francesi che conducono su un balcone con alcune delle viste più belle che si possano trovare sull'isola. Adiacente alla camera da letto principale c'è un piccolo ufficio con un letto, adatto a un bambino. Un allegato camera da letto è collegato alla casa principale con l'ingresso che si apre sulla terrazza con la propria disposizione dei posti a sedere. Un piccolo sentiero conduce attraverso il giardino alla pensione, che ha la sua veranda con vista su Skiathos e sul porto di Loutraki. Appena fuori dalla porta principale una passeggiata di circa 45 minuti conduce al villaggio di Glossa e continua fino al porto di Loutraki. Un vecchio muro di pietra offre la massima privacy e sicurezza alla proprietà

A Piece of Paradise!
As soon as we opened the garden gate, we knew we had stepped into something extra special.
The garden is stunning, the views/sunsets to die for & the main house was like you had stepped into an interior magazine page, but homely at the same time.
The house was spotlessly clean, the beds so comfortable, constant hot water, the air conditioning super effective(extra fans if you needed it), the kitchen had everything you needed, lots of books/games, even hats!
The pool is not heated, but you do not need it & it was heaven to swim in & just admire the glorious views.
The Wi-Fi was excellent much to the relief of our teenage son. He loved his own space in the en-suite bedroom attached to the house.
Each morning we would go to the local bakery for coffee & bread/pasteries( they do fab desserts too!) & such wonderful people. We
used the Glossa butchers & supermarket, so friendly & helpful. We ate in Glossa’s fab restaurants too.
The communication with Anna the owner Was excellent. The person who looks after the villa, Anthoula was fab at answering all our questions. She was a complete star when our ferry was cancelled 24 hrs before our departure & no other ferries were available. She acted quickly & arranged a contact for a sea taxi, so we didn’t miss our flight.
The whole experience was 5 STARS, we would highly recommend & would return in a blink of an eye.
Thank you Anja for letting us share your piece of Greek paradise!

Beautiful location
Villa Thalia is a stunning property with magnificent views. We had a wonderful two week stay and enjoyed the location, the pool and the beautiful stone properties sitting in a tranquil location. We did, however, feel that it was misleading to state that there is parking 'onsite' as the actual parking is not at the villa but in a public parking area some way from the property and involving quite a steep path - this would not be suitable for those with mobility issues and is quite a trek if carrying back grocery shopping - thought it important to mention this.
Otherwise, a lovely spot and a beautiful introduction to the island of Skopelos.

Paradise!
A beautiful, charming villa with a huge amount of character and lots of space including a detached 'Guest Cottage' with it's own facilities. Aircon in all bedrooms with the lounge and kitchen areas kept cool by the thick walls of the villa. Outside spaces are superb topped by a wonderful pool area. The panoramic views are sensational and include the Port and Glossa. We were met in Glossa and guided to the villa which was necessary given how the villa is accessed. As mentioned in previous reviews the road/track down to villa Thalia is very rough, narrow and steep and not for the faint hearted. Once parked, there is a 100 yard, or so, dirt track to navigate before arriving at the villa therefore this isn't a place for anyone with mobility issues. Having said this, the pay off is a beautiful, private, quiet villa with views that are a tonic to the soul!

Stay at Villa Thalia, Glossa, Skopelos
Thanks Anja for an unforgettable stay at Ville Thalia!
We enjoyed the whole family, adults and children, the place is beautiful and directly invites you to relax in the garden with a pool and a view of the sea. The location of the villa means that it is practically necessary to rent a car, as the local paths (to the beautiful Glossa and the port), although we like to walk, are overgrown and difficult to access in the summer (even considering the terrain and the heat). The villa is well maintained, it welcomed us with cleanliness and a pleasant rural atmosphere. Thanks Anthoula for the great service, cleaning including the pool and help with transportation to/from the villa to the port. We have gathered energy for many days ahead, we are still reminiscing and look forward to stay again sometime (even with cat companions)!

Great "retreat" away from big cities
We loved staying at Villa Thalia. We've called it a "retreat" because we felt it was a great place to recharge. You have the sea in front of you and the forest surrounding the property. All you need to do is to let yourself immerse in the peace of the place.
The North part of the island was a great choice because Glossa (the main village) is a gem that has tavernas and small shops and where, after a few days, we had the feeling we know everyone at the shops and in the village.
Skopelos is not for holiday party lovers. Skopelos is a great retreat away from the big cities.

Rustic charm in idyllic location
Villa Thalia occupies a beautiful location looking west towards the harbour below, the distant mainland, and beyond that, the setting sun.
The villa is in a lovely mature garden and has a perfect sized swimming pool.
We discovered some fabulous walks nearby and spent most of our two weeks nature watching in the surrounding area. Warblers and Nightingales abound.
This is by far the prettiest and most untouristy part of the island.
Our main guilty pleasure was the bakery, Kyraleni, in Glossa. This was only a forty minute walk away.

Villa Thalia - a perfect escape.
Villa Thalia is a hidden gem on an amazing island. The villa is full of magical charm, very rustic but the most idyllic setting with the most beautiful sunsets ever!
The pool, beautiful gardens, charming house & a few friendly cats made for a perfect escape.
And Skopelos has lovely deserted beaches even in August. Glossa with its lovely bakery and excellent restaurants is very close by, but definitely a car is needed. We had a fiat Panda for 5 of us no problem!
Thank you Anja for letting us stay in your beautiful home. We hope we can return one day.

Amazing experience
This place is magical! We enjoyed every moment there.
The views are out of this world, the house has a typical , Greek character which we wanted. Contact with the host and the property manager in town was easy and straightforward.
The only downside is the fact the house does not have a parking spot and is located on the edge of the steep cliff, therefore you need a 4wheel drive to manage going up ( we had to stop one time as there was another car going from the opposite direction and we had to back up the whole way as our car would not start from the stop position / we did not have 4 wheel drive). Also more difficult for older folks to walk to the house with luggage but they are very helpful as they pick you up from the ferry and show you the way to the house).
Overall this house was a dream and nothing would ever spoil the experience for me!

We had an amazing time at Villa Thalia. It's an idyllic place and setting. Will definitely revisit.
The property is gorgeous and rustic with stunning views.
We did trade in our rental car for an SUV to handle the steep and rough hill to the villa, but that was the only small draw back in an otherwise perfect week.

Everything was perfect about this wonderful villa with lovely pool and beautiful views across the sea towards Skiathos. The villa is well equipped but additionally is full of charm and personal touches. The setting is idyllic, very secluded but only 5 minutes drive from Glossa. Christos, who looks after the property is extremely helpful.
Note the access road is not so difficult, but is very steep and potholed - we had the cheapest Fiat Panda and it struggled a bit - I suggest you get a more powerful car.

Die Villa Thalia ist ein Haus mit Seele und ein toller Ort zum Wohlfühlen und Entspannen. Loutraki und Glossa sind gut erreichbar (auch zu Fuß) und bieten alles was es braucht. Vielen Dank für drei Wochen, die unserer vierköpfigen Familie sehr gut getan haben. Und auch vielen Dank an Christos der immer da war, wenn wir etwas gebraucht haben oder Fragen hatten.

Absolutely Fantastic
Everything about Villa Thalia was fantastic. Location: it's in a beautiful part of a stunning island, private but not too-remote, and on the best side of the island in terms of wind, sunset, and crowds. The house: spacious and elegant, the garden stunning in size, diversity of plants, and abundance of comfortable places to sit. We used the small pool multiple times a day, grilled in the bbq pit, and enjoyed the companionship of the three relaxed cats that live on the property. Christos, the delightful property manager, welcomed us at the port when we arrived and we're grateful for the care that he and his wife Despina put into maintaining the villa, and their hospitality. This is a wonderful place, leaving us feeling so lucky to have discovered it, and already looking forward to returning someday.

Bliss
Villa Thalia was just as we imagined it. Gorgeous, beautiful and relaxing. Inside and out was slightly rustic which we adored, this villa would be at home in a Mamma Mia film!
We were met at the ferry by Christos the villa manager and the car hire person, We then followed Christos to the villa. The first time down the track to the villa was an experience and i would recommend a 4x4.
We have stayed in many villas across Europe and as a rule we never return to the same place, this is the first ever that my wife said she would come back. Thank you Anja.

Wunderschöne Lange zum erholen auf Skopelos
Wunderschöner Platz auf Skopelos in einem Garten mit traumhafter Aussicht auf das Meer. Sonnenuntergang über Skiathos jeden Abend filmreif. Sehr freundlicher Empfang durch Christos, der seine Besuche zum reinigen des Pools unauffällig am frühen Morgen erledigte.
Kleines Manko: löchrige Fliegengitter an den Fenstern, abfallende Türklinken und sehr sehr viele Wespen.
Dennoch haben wir unseren Aufenthalt wirklich genossen.

Relaxing holiday in a terrific area!
The villa is close to Glossa harbour (about 10 Minutes by car) and offers one of the best views we have ever had. The traditional greek house offers generous space on two levels and we felt very comfortable. In reality, the villa consists of three separate buildings with 3 bedrooms in total, so you can easily stay there with up to seven people.
There are Aircon units in all bedrooms and the beds were comfortable. WiFi is available.
The furniture is not new, but in good condition. The only area in the house that could be improved is the kitchen.
Be aware that the path down from the main road is narrow and steep, so we would highly recommend to rent a 4WD car, e.g. a Suzuki Jimny. From the place you can park your car you have to walk about 100m to the villa along an unpaved, uneven path. This might be a hindrance for people with mobility problems. The good thing is, that the villa is at the end of this path, so no one will pass by.
Christos and his wife come by every other day early in the morning to tidy up the outer areas, clean the pool and water the plants. There is a small grocery store and a bakery in close vicinity of the villa. Glossa is a picturesque village, mostly unharmed from tourism. It offers cute little shops offering greek handmade products and there is a fine little restaurant all the way up by the church.
Skopelos is lushly green everywhere you go and the beaches were never crowded (beginning of July). The greek food is anyway right up our alleys, but it has to be mentioned that the staff at the restaurants we visited was very polite and friendly and we felt welcomed everywhere we went.
Bottom Line: If you look for a piece of paradise away from well-trodden touristic paths, give Skopelos a try. If you prefer rural remoteness over crowded bars and noisy pool action, Villa Thalia may just be the place for you and your beloved ones.

Ein Stückchen Paradies in Griechenland
Ein wirkliches sehr schönes Ferienhaus mit wundervollem Garten.
Wir haben zu zweit Ende Juli 2017 eine Woche dort verbracht und wollten eigentlich nicht mehr weg...die Aussicht, der Garten, die vielen Schmetterlinge, der Gesang der Zikaden: es war einfach traumhaft. Wir hatten sehr hohe Temperaturen aufgrund einer Hitzewelle und haben daher auch Zeiten im Haus verbracht. Sehr schön und geschmackvoll eingerichtet sodass man sich sofort zuhause fühlt. Es gab nichts, was wir vermisst haben. Das Haus war angenehm kühl und dank Klimaanlage in den Schlafzimmern waren die Nächte erholsam. Hier ist auch zu betonen, dass das Bett super bequem war! Uns hat es wirklich sehr gefallen und wir werden wiederkommen, dann aber auf jeden Fall länger!
Nicht zu vergessen: die Betreuung vor Ort und der Empfang von Christos und seiner Frau waren klasse, wir haben uns sehr willkommen gefühlt. Anja hat mit viel Liebe einen wunderschönen Fleck auf Skopelos erschaffen. Danke!

A dream home in Skopelos
Villa Thalia finds itself on an idyllic peninsula surrounded by pine, olive and fig trees and overlooking the Aegean sea towards the island of Skiathos and Mount Pelion on the mainland. It feels very private yet it is not isolated as there are a few more homes discreetly situated in the vicinity and the picturesque town of Glossa is 2 km away.
The views from all parts of the house are magnificent and the moods of light and weather present you with an ever-changing panorama of beauty.
My family and I return to this place every summer for an unforgettable time and simply cannot get enough of each day spent here.
The property consists of a two floor main house with a kitchen and living room on the ground floor and a master bedroom, a work room, (I use it as a place to set up my portable studio to compose music in) and bathroom on the second floor. Attached to this house there is a bedroom with its own entrance and bathroom. There is also a guesthouse in the property which also perfectly equipped for 2 people to stay there.
All of this is immersed in a fantastic greek garden full of flowers, lavender, rosemary bushes, olive and fig trees, jasmine and geraniums which are very well kept by the groundskeeper who also takes care of the pool and general maintenance.
The villa is rustic but well equipped and comfortable and one can spend endless hours there in perfect harmony with nature.
There are walking paths everywhere in Skopelos and that is also true for the vicinity of the Villa. One of them leads down to the port of Loutraki and the ancient Roman baths where there is a small swimming spot.
For the more popular beaches of Skopelos one needs a car and having one is highly recommended for one's stay here, whether it is needed to make supply runs to the town or exploring the many beautiful locales and excellent beaches of the island.
The owner has equipped the house with an assortment of maps, guide books and cookbooks which will give you ideas on how to best use your time but beware:
Even though there is no wrong way to do that here, alas time in this lovely house passes way too fast...

Dream place for relaxing vacation
We arrived in the afternoon to the small and charming Loutraki harbour in Skopelos. We were very nicely welcomed at the boat by Christos who showed us the rental car company and then the house. Except Christos and his wife, three lovely cats were welcoming us to this spectacular view and villa. We cannot find anything bad to say about the house. We walked one time down to the beach and that was quite exhausting so a car is really a must if you like to swim in the ocean and see more of the island. The second floor has a master bed room with an amazing view to wake up to. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are all great to enjoy at the outside porch. From the porch you have a great view towards Skiathos. Just lean back and enjoy! If we decide to visit Skopelos again we rent it again.

Informazioni sull’host
Host: Anja Rowe
My husband is English, born in Kenya, and I am of Dutch origin. We have always lived and worked overseas,in the USA, East Africa(Kenya, Ethiopia) and Far East, however, we have made Skopelos our favourite second home. We usually spent the winter months in Kenya, but returning to France and Greece for the Spring/summer in order to enjoy Thalia, at the same time we will be preparing the garden and house for the summer and make sure everything is working in order to make our guests feel happy and comfortable.,
Perché ha scelto questa struttura
We were visiting friends on Skopelos, and enjoyed it so much, that we decided to look around to buy a second home. We found this 100 year old shepherd cottage and had it totally renovated by a French architect. We especially liked the large forest areas, wonderful for walking, and where ever you are one has always those amazing views over the Aegean Sea.There is no airport on Skopelos and we rather like the remoteness from the crowds, even if it takes a bit longer to arrive on the island. Having a sundowner, while watching the spectacular sunsets over the Aegean Sea, Loutraki Harbour, Skiathos, and even Mt.Athos on the mainland is an unforgettable experience.
Cosa rende unica questa struttura
Villa Thalia is located in a very peaceful location, where one can enjoy tranquillity, privacy and seclusion. However, one never has to feel isolated! During the day one can observethe activities going on in Loutraki's port. In the evening the sky is lit up with lights coming from Glossa village, situated on the hillside,as well as from the Neighbouring island of Skiathos. it only takes a short time either to Glossa, Elios and Loutraki to be near the Tavernas, supermarket or the beaches of Milia (Mama Mia's),Elios, Kastani or Perivolou (our favourite!)
