About this property

Pefkias is a place to truly relax. “For peace, privacy and postcard-worthy views in a great location, Pefkias is - quite simply - perfect.”
Here and there you'll see old stone villas and hushed holiday homes peeking out among pine trees, olive groves and fruit trees. Naturally, the views here are superb. Look down to the wooded valleys and out to a sea that sparkles alluringly in the distance. If you're a fan of walking and hiking, you'll be in your element here. Pick a path down to the beaches of Limnonari and Agnondas. It'll take about an hour on foot but the sight that greets you is prize enough, with velvety sand giving way to warm crystal waters.
And even if you don't want to wonder that far, whichever direction you head in you'll come across bubbling springs and dinky chapels hiding in the hills. With its beautiful scenery and laid-back vibe.

Perfect stay on Skopelos

From the moment we booked the villa, I knew we were in safe hands with Dimitris as he contacted me with all the information we'd need for a great stay. The villa itself is gorgeous, olde-worlde charm but equipped with everything you need - WiFi, cooking stuff, TVs. The pool is immaculate and it's a real treat to just float about gazing down the valley at Skopelos harbour. And Skopelos is a fantastic island. A new favourite part of Greece! Can't wait to return!

Perfect stay

Cannot recommend a stay at this property enough. Exceeded our expectations. Perfect location, quiet but near to town and close to the wonderful beaches. We’ve fallen in love with Skopelos.The villa had everything we needed and more and great for a holiday with teenagers as there was ample space for all and WiFi. Pool was perfect. Also check in could not have been better, very smooth and quick and from arriving at the port we were greeted, given our hire car and escorted to the villa in no time. Thank you Dimitris for a wonderful stay, you are a great host and we very much hope to return.

A lovely villa

This villa is perfect. It has a rustic feel but it is immaculate, has everything you need and is beautifully decorated. It is secluded, surrounded in pine trees and has an amazing view of Skopelos town and port below. It's a beautiful island - perfect if you want a true Greek island experience. Everything we wanted to visit seemed to be just a short drive away. Dimitris is fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble. He gave us really helpful travel advice before the holiday, and despite being away himself during our stay, he had colleagues on hand to solve any problems instantly. We were met at the port and taken directly to the villa which was wonderfully stress free. Dimitris messaged occasionally just to check everything was ok. We even managed to lock ourselves out of the villa and he was immediately on hand to send a friend around to help. Thank-you so much Dimitris for a lovely holiday. We hope to return one day and meet you in person next time. :)

Traumhaft schön!

Wir haben 7 Nächte in dem wunderschönen Haus von Dimitri verbracht. Das Haus ist rustikal aber sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Die Küche ist perfekt ausgestattet, es gibt genügend Geschirr, einen Geschirrspüler, Herd mit Backofen sowie einen großen Kühlschrank. Die 3 Doppelbetten aufgeteilt auf 2 Schlafzimmer + eine Schlafgelegenheit im Dachspitz (sehr gemütlich) sind mit auffallend bequemen Matratzen ausgestattet. Wir haben sehr gut geschlafen! Die Fenster in den Schlafzimmern sowie in der Küche haben Mückengitter, auch das war sehr angenehmen. Die möblierte Terrasse sowie der tolle Pool mit Waldblick runden das perfekte Urlaubserlebnis ab. Dimitri war vor und während unseres Aufenthalts immer ansprechbar und hat unsere Fragen sehr schnell beantwortet. Wir haben uns rundherum wohl gefühlt wunderbar entspannende Tage auf Skopelos verbracht. Danke schön für die tolle Zeit!

Fab!

The house was rustic but well maintained with the most wonderful views. The smell in the mornings of the pine forest we were nestled in was amazing too. The house is a great location for a relaxing stay on Skopelos. Lastly Dimitris was unbelievably quick at responding to us every time we messaged him. There was an issue with wasps outside and before we knew it a trap had been laid which pretty much solved the problem. Highly recommend!

Lovely, traditional style villa in the hills above Skopelos Town.

We have just spent a lovely couple of weeks staying at Villa Arktos in Skopelos. The villa is set in a beautiful, tranquil location with views across the valley to the distant hills and further views down the valley to Skopelos town and out to sea. We could sit around the pool and look down the valley to watch the boats coming in and out of the harbour in the distance. The pool was very clean and a great respite from the heat, regularly used by our teenage children. The house was spotless on our arrival and was cleaned every three days. Sheets and towels were also changed every three days. Dimitris, the owner, was fantastic and on hand by text or e-mail to immediately deal with any queries or questions we had. He also helped us to book our ferry to the island and our car. His colleague met us at the port side to take us to our car and took us directly to the property. They could not have done more for us. The island itself is very green and unspoilt. We enjoyed visiting the numerous, beautiful beaches, with lovely warm, clear water. It was great to wander around the old town in Skopelos and browse the shops selling pottery, jewellery, clothes and food. Our children enjoyed the delicious ice cream and baklava served in the tavernas along the harbour side. Overall we felt that the island had a lovely atmosphere and the locals were friendly and welcoming.

A really nice quiet place with great views!

We were travelling with my brother and 2 cousins. The villa was perfect with 2 bedrooms and a loft, all well maintained. We rented a car which the owner Dimitris arranged for us so it was a short drive to town but very convenient still. Dimitris was great, very friendly and helpful. He arranged to have someone meet us right off the ferry and escort our car to the property. There were some fires on the island the day after we arrived and Dimitris called to let us know we were safe where we were and he would let us know if that changed. A very good experience overall and we would recommend for sure!

Es war wunderbar!

Wir waren eine Woche Gäste in der Villa Arktos. Im Vorfeld auf unseren Urlaub, war uns Dimitris stets behilflich und in allen organisatorischen Fragen! Das Haus hat uns gut gefallen, für uns, zwei Ehepaare, war genug Privatsphäre gegeben, denn jedes Schlafzimmer besitzt sein eigenes Badezimmer. Die Wohnküche war ebenfalls gut ausgestattet, es fehlte an nichts. Eines der Schlafzimmerfenster hatte kein Fliegengitter, dies wurde umgehend nachgerüstet. Wir reisen sehr viel, besonders gern auf diese Art, in einem privaten Haus und während unseres Aufenthaltes hat Dimitris auch nachgefragt, ob alles zu unserer Zufriedenheit ist, dies ist nicht so selbstverständlich. Von der Terrasse hat man einen wunderschönen Blick auf Skopelos Stadt und das Meer. Die Ruhe ist einfach himmlisch gewesen. Die Insel Skopelos ist wahrlich ein Geheimtip, üppig grün, tolle Strände, wo man sich nicht mit Menschenmassen auseinander setzen muss. Ende September hätten wir auch diese oder jene kleine Bucht für uns haben können. Es gibt sehr nette Restaurants, wobei das Agnanti in Glossa unser Favorit war. Überall wird man zuvorkommend bedient, die Menschen auf Skopelos sind überaus freundlich. Wir sind froh, dass wir es gewagt haben, den doch nicht so direkten Weg der Anreise in Kauf genommen zu haben, um auf die Insel zu kommen, ansonsten wäre uns dieses kleine griechische Juwel verborgen geblieben und dies wäre aus heutiger Sicht sehr schade gewesen! Wir können die Villa nur empfehlen und wünschen Dimitris alles Gute und möge er seine Gäste weiterhin so zuvorkommend und hilfreich willkommen heißen. Σας ευχαριστώ πολύ Silvia

Fabulous, secluded villa with amazing views - a great place to stay!

We have just returned from a two week holiday spent at this villa and I would really recommend it. We are a family of five and there was plenty of room for us all. The pool is lovely with fantastic views, but if you want to venture further afield there are some lovely beaches and coves just a short drive away. We went out most nights to Skopelos town (a 10 minute drive away) where there are many bars and restaurants, but the villa is very well equipped if you choose to eat in instead and sit back and enjoy the view! Dimitris is a truly great host. He answers any emails/messages really quickly and is so helpful. If this villa is available when you want to visit Skopelos - book it!

Lovely relaxing stay, very helpful owner.

We had a lovely relaxing time at the villa. It is truly secluded and just what we needed. Skopelos is a lovely island and everything was a short drive from the villa. The town and our favourite beach (panormos) were a speedy 10 minutes away. Glossa is 20-30min away with a myriad of beaches stretching in between. Dimitris was a great host, always available to help and swiftly replying to our messages. When we got there, there was a bit too many bees for our taste (we were to be fair in the middle of the woods) but dimitris quickly accomodated us and sent someone to set traps. After which there was much less bees. I highly recommend this villa for families, couples and friends looking to get away from the husstle and bustle. The villa is surrounded by trees and the night sky is beautiful. Small tips: we rented a car for our stay and there is no need for a gps. The roads are well sign posted and if you have a smart phone it's easy to figure destinations out. Taverna fottinis is a 10 minute walk away which we visited in the middle of a very uncharacteristic storm. Despite being the only guests madame fottinis took us in and gave us towels to dry up :) Also if you look across to the neighbouring hill at night there's a funny little surprise which entertained us a lot. Finally the villa is very well appointed and the pillows are very comfortable. All and all a lovely stay.

Sehr schöne und ruhige Villa

Die Villa mit einem eigenen Pool ist sehr hübsch und wenn man ein wenig abseits von den Menschenmengen sein möchte, ist dies der perfekte Ort um zu entspannen. Besonders angenehm ist es, wenn man am Abend draussen sitzen kann und die angenehmen Temparaturen geniessen kann. Die Ausstattung enthält alles was man braucht, von Liegestühlen über Frottetücher für den Pool und drinnen, Geschirr usw. Der Vermieter ist sehr zuvorkommend und macht alles in seiner Macht um den Aufenthalt möglichst angenehm zu gestalten. Wenn Probleme auftreten, werden gleich Lösungen angeboten. Für all dies hätte diese Villa ohne Probleme 5 Sterne erhalten. Jedoch ist die Zufahrt langsam in einem bedenklichen Zustand. Das die 100 Meter Strasse zum Haus nicht ausgebaut wurde stellt kein Problem dar, doch an einer steilen Stelle hat es viel lockere Erde und grosse Steine und da mussten wir uns jedes Mal Sorgen machen, dass es unser Auto nicht mehr schafft (mit grösseren/stärkeren Fahrzeugen bestimmt kein Problem). Es hat doch jedes Mal geklappt, doch an dieser Stelle muss unbedingt was gemacht werden. Zudem sehen staubige und kaputte Lampenschirme neben dem Bett nicht sehr hübsch aus. Ein zweiter Hausschlüssel währe auch Toll, v.a. wenn man zu viert unterwegs ist oder wenn man aus versehen einen Schlüssel im Haus lässt und die Türe ins Schloss fällt (sie schliesst sich automatisch). Ansonsten hat uns die Villa jedoch sehr gut gefallen und ich würde sie auch weiterempfehlen. Das W-Lan funktionierte auch gut und alles entsprach unseren Ansprüchen. Zwei kleine Tipps: Zu unserer Urlaubszeit hatte es extrem viele Wespen auf der Insel, egal ob am Strand oder vor dem Haus (was v.a. am Pool liegt, um welche sich die Wespen richtig ansammelten). Kosmas (der Angestellte von Dimitri (der Vermieter) sagte uns dann, dass wir nicht draussen essen sollen. Doch im Urlaub bei solchem Wetter drinnen zu essen kam für uns nicht in Frage, daher haben wir Kaffeepulver mit Kohle in kleinen Behältern angezündet, welches die Wespen relativ gut verngehalten hat (bis auf ein zwei Wespen). Des weiteren kann ich das Restaurant Muses in Skopelos nur wärmstens empfehlen, die Bedienung ist sehr freundlich und das Essen sehr lecker. Herzlichen Dank an Dimitri für den tollen Service und lassen Sie sich durch die 4 Sterne nicht abschrecken, diese sollten einfach noch ein paar kleine Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten aufzeigen.

Traumhafte Villa

Wir waren zwei Wochen in diesem wundervollen Haus von Dimitris. Ein absolut toller Ort um einfach mal abzuschalten. Die Lage ist herrlich, sehr ruhig, toller Blick auf Skopelos Stadt. Wir fühlten uns sehr wohl in dem von Dimitris, dem Vermieter, wunderschön eingerichteten Haus. Stilvolle Möbel und ein Gespür für das Schöne. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Die Schlafzimmer haben jeweils eine eigene Dusche und Toilette, super für zwei Paare wie wir. Wir haben gerne auf der Terasse gesessen den Sonnenuntergang beobachtet die Ruhe genossen und sind immer mal wieder in den tollen Pool gesprungen. Die Insel ist noch sehr ursprünglich, schöne Strände, sehr frendliche Menschen, das Essen einfach super! Wir können diese Insel und dieses Haus absolut weiterempfehlen und kommen auch gerne wieder Yassas Xristina, Norbert, Karin und Martin aus Dinkelsbühl

Amazing place

When you book Villa Arktos you also hire a travel agent, because its owner, Dimitris, is a wonderful person who helps you for any need you may have and replies to your messages in few minutes always! Even if he was perfect before my arrival (he helped me with the car, the boat, everything I asked) it was really a surprise to see that the same kindness and availability was confirmed for the rest of my trip (15 days at his place). About the house I can say that it was the perfect choise I could ever made: close to Skopoles Town, but very quite in the green with a beautiful view; the pool was perfect for our kids (4!) and we also had ouf friends very often for dinner and brekfast and we were perfect in 10 as well, around the table by the pool. In Skopelos it's impossible to find "sand" as we think about it in Italy, so that the pool was perfect to complete the vacation. The house inside is very nice and big; the kitchen was very well equipped (once we made pizza for ten people, another time fresh fish in oven for evebody and it also have a barbeque outside were we grilled!). Thanks Dimitris again! Perfect house, perfect host!

Beauty and privacy! What better way to relax!

We spent a week at Villa Arktos with my husband and one friend. It was a beautiful, relaxing vacation! A week earlier, we had a rest with my husband alone in the villa Pegasus, but when we were joined by our friend - we moved to the Villa Arktos, it is very convenient, as the villa has two completely separate areas for sleeping with its own bathroom, a spacious living room divided. Sometimes we do not want to go anywhere, and we were staying in, fried barbecue and swim in the large pool. The villa is located next to the woods on a mountain, so there is always cool, the sun enters the house only in the morning, when it is very gentle, and in the afternoon at Villa there is 5-7 degrees cooler than down on the beach! That's fine, because you can always escape from the beach and relax at home out of the heat! After our crazy and huge city - Moscow, this place seemed to us quiet tranquil haven, with a wonderful hospitable host - Dimitris! We will be glad to come back!

A wonderful villa in a beautiful location.

From the moment we contacted Dimitris to enquire about Villa Arktos, we realised we were onto something special! He was so helpful and attentive weeks before we even set foot on Skopelos; we knew we had made a great decision in booking this villa for our first trip to Greece. (Dimitris even came to the rescue and found us a hire car when we couldn’t find any available on the regular car-hire websites!) Never before on our holiday travels have we experienced such genuine care from a host – he was so focused on ensuring our holiday was a success and we can't thank him enough. The villa is in a truly wonderful location - I can’t imagine there is a better one on the island, to be honest. You hardly notice the couple of nearby villas, yet whilst it felt very much on its own, standing in the tranquillity of the beautiful wooded valley with just the sounds of cicadas and goat bells drifting on the breeze, Arktos was conveniently only a short drive from Skopelos Town (for supermarket supplies or restaurants). Similarly, by car, the rest of the island’s beaches, towns and villages are within easy reach. (The short track down to the villa from the road is quite rough going, so take it slowly!) The villa itself is just as described and seen in the photos on the website. It has rustic, yet stylish, charm and oozes such a relaxing atmosphere. We had four adults and one fully grown teenager (who slept in the small gallery room) and the space and facilities provided by the villa were perfect for us all. We sometimes ate inside although more-often we dined out on the terrace. We found the air-conditioning in the two main bedrooms a real bonus! The pool was marvellous and the view, whether swimming or sitting on the terrace, was simply wonderful; we soaked it up day after day, gazing down the wooded valley to the Aegean Sea. I have no doubt this will be the pervading memory which will see us through the coming UK winter...

Welcoming, warm, relaxing. Definitely coming back

We spent an amazing Easter in Arktos in 2014. It was the perfect home for our family. Welcoming, warm, fully equiped, it offered exactly what we needed. Sheltered in the beautiful pine forest of Pefkias, it gave us the opportunity to rest in the absolute quiet,not far from the port where we could go for walks, shopping or eat at one of the restaurants. The layout of the house proved excellent as the bedrooms, spread on both sides of the house, with the living room and kitchen in between, allowed me to get up early, make my coffee and read my book in front of a beautiful window overlooking the lush mountains and the sea, without disturbing those still sleeping. During the day we enjoyed swimming in our pool and the children played endlessly in the house yard. In the evenings, having put the kids to bed, we used to sit with my husband in front of the pool and enjoy a bottle of wine. One thing is certain. We will surely visit again. Many thanks to the lovable hospitable owners who did everything possible to ensure a pleasant and enjoyable stay. We recommend it unreservedly as the best choice choice.

Definatelly suggested!

My boyfriend and I had a great experience booking Villa Arktos. It was our first time renting a house in Skopelos. The booking was all-in-one; we received our confirmation right away. We spoke about the details with the owner (Dimitri) a few times; he was very friendly, helpful and responsive. The villa was stylish, commodious, well decorated, totally private and very very clean! The interior is fitted with all modern amenities to make our stay comfortable, safe and pleasurable and the beautiful views made our afternoons great. Stafylos beach is flat and sandy, both ideal for swimming for young children. Everything was as it is described in the site. In our everyday routine, we continuously thinking about this place and the wonderful people who hosted us. From the very beginning we felt the warmness and the hospitality of the Greek culture and authenticity. We are expressing our thanks to Dimitri for the warm welcome; the attention to detail in every way was outstanding. We appreciated all the special touches. We highly recommend this place for couples or families!!!

The best vacation on the best Villa!

Finding Villa Arktos and his owner Dimitris has been the best thing of our vacation! I can suggest Villa Skopelos to everybody: - perfect location: in 10 min by car you can reach the nearest city and actually by car you can easily go everywhere in the island! - perfect house: very well furnished and completely equipped. Swimmingpool to relax and a patio where you can have your meals. All is very clean and well done. Fantastic view!!! - perfect owner: Dimitri helped us in all our vacation steps, from when we arrived on the island trough all the week. He called us two times just to know if everything was ok and he was ready to solve every problems! If I'll come back in Skopelos I'll come back in this Villa for sure!
