The Bungalow

Four bungalows on the Agia Paraskevi hillside above Skopelos Town offer a self-contained base with a full kitchen, outdoor pool, private terrace, and direct beach access — rare in a town where most stays are whitewashed rooms without cooking facilities.

Each unit sits on the ground floor with a garden and pool view, tile floors, and soundproofed walls. The on-site bar, coffee house, and restaurant mean guests are not dependent on the harbour tavernas below, while bicycle rental and organized hiking and snorkeling tours depart from the property.

Skopelos Town's stepped lanes and 123 churches — the backdrop for the 2008 Mamma Mia filming — are a short walk downhill. The ferry pier linking the island to Skiathos and the mainland sits at the base of the old port.
