Client Testimonials

There is always some degree of nervousness when you turn up to your accommodation. There was pure joy when we turned up. We had chosen well! After having visited Skiathos on numerous occasions over the past 10 years, this was our second time in a villa. We were 6 adults and 3 children from 2 up to 8 years of age. We stayed in a similar location in the previous villa rental and had a hire van to get around in which came with its own problems - designated driver etc. What appealed to us with villa Lion was the free transfers anywhere at any time. So firstly location. It's about 6/7 mins out of town by car up a steep hill and in a secluded location. The views are something to behold, and I miss them every day. There is one taverna within walking distance. But then the transfers would take you anywhere anyway! Evan, the owners son and main day to day contact was super attentive and sorted any issues (issues being minor like a bulb gone) instantly. He also booked us a lot of restaurants on request before we arrived as we were a large group so that was superb too. He took us to the beach every time we wanted and picked us up whenever we whatsapped him. The villa we stayed in had 4 double bedrooms and one single split over three levels. Two of the doubles were in the basement level which was a little dark but it was a release from the the heat for those who stayed down there. There is also a kitchen, sitting areas and large balcony down there too. Plus another sofa bed if needed. The rooms upstairs are large bright and airy. One room upstairs and one down doesn't have an ensuite but it really doesn't matter as each floor has a large bathroom. Air con is in every room with separate controls. Everything is modern and so comfortable. They haven't spared any expense on furnishings. It was genuinely gorgeous. The villa is cleaned every day! With new towels provided too. The pool area is gorgeous too and we ate out here every time we stayed in for the day or evening - using the BBQ on a couple of occasions. The area around the pool can be a little slippery when wet so bring pool shoes for young children. There were nice little touches here like colour changing pool lights and power sockets everywhere. Breakfast is provided between the villas and was so much more than we were expecting. Omelettes, eggs and pancakes made to order with fresh fruit, bacon, sausages, pastries, juice, cake and so much more on offer every day! The homemade jams and marmalades were incredible. We paid a little extra for 2 days and the families aunt and mother came over from the mainland and prepared us lunch and dinner! My word it was amazing. So much traditional, gorgeous memorable food, cooked with love. We could have requested anything but in the end left it up to them and we weren't disappointed. They even made sure the kids were catered for. The grounds are immaculate and always pretty with an abundance of plants and flowers. You even get a yacht trip with part of the bookings which was worth every penny and I have reviewed separately. This is one of if not the finest villa around so don't even think twice about booking it. They even give you a Parting gift which is just amazing but I won't spoil the surprise for you. Stunning. I will always remember this place and hope to go back. Many great memories were made here. And that's all you can ask from your holiday accommodation.

I spend a week in one of the 3 beautiful villas . Other friends rented also the other 2 villas and everything was just perfect ! The houses are beautiful , neat and clean . The view is stunning and piecefull. A special thank to the owner Evangelious that with his kindness made our staying special and unique. Also a friend of us celebrated her birthday in one of the villa and the party was awesome ! Highly , highly recommended !

Went for a weeks family holiday in June. This Villa is so beautiful, the sea views are breathtaking and all the rooms and private pool area are just perfect, it has everything you could ever need for self catering and they provide plenty of fresh bottled water in the fridge every morning. Breakfast is included - served down on the terrace which is shared between the 3 Villas, we didnt even realise this until we checked in, it's delicious with lots of choice( try Evans mama's homemade jam!) we left full for the beach full every morning! Evan (the owners son) runs the place and does such an incredible job, he is there every morning at breakfast making sure you have everythung you need. He is so generous and kind, and our family's 2 year old kid loved him! He booked all of our restaurants for us during our stay. But the BEST thing about this villa is the mini bus taxi service- driven by Evan himself, it's available to guests any time of day until midnight, it was SO nice to have our own driver to drive us about. Ive never even heard of a villa having this service, it's brilliant! Overall BEST VILLA I'VE EVER STAYED IN! Real luxury. All the Family would definitely go back again. It was also me and my boyfriend's first time in Skiathos and we loved it!

Where can i start with this. We had a week here in this villa and could not fault one little thing with it. Perfection. Amazing views. Immaculately clean. Everything about these villas is incredible. Evan who runs the villas is a god send nothing is to much trouble for him he goes out of his way to ensure we had the best holiday possible. I cant recommend these villas enough absolutely beautiful we will definitely be returning.

We rented one of the house for our group of 8 in August. Accommodation was great, in particular the mattresses. Great seaview from the bedroom, in a calm area. We particularly appreciated the all-inclusive service: breakfast, daily house cleaning, 7 days shuttle service. A bit far from the city center but Evan offered to drive us everywhere in the island with his van, or at late night we could take a taxi for 10 euros, so it was not really an issue. We would rent again the place if we go back to Skiathos.
