Marpounta Vacation Rentals

"Great place for a short stay dedicated to exploring Skopelos island. Supermarket and Enterprise car and motorcycle rental on the street level. Great tavern Afolapsi next door. "

"Staff very friendly and helpful Lovely and quiet location 5 minutes walk from the ferries with a lovely rooftop pool and pool bar. Only a few restaurants and a small supermarket in the immediate vicinity. We hired a car for 2 days to visit the rest of the Island. Glossa is built above Loutraki on the hillside and is beautiful with lots of restaurants to choose from. Taxi near the hotel so easy to get up there "

" The hotel is located at a short distance from ferryboat landing area. The rooms are comfortable and well maintained. There is an attractive swimming pool and poolside bar. The breakfast hour is an enjoyable experience. The management is friendly and attentive. There is a classic vibe that is most appealing. I am happy to recommend this hotel. "

"The owner and his family are very nice and greeting us. The owner is taking good care of us. He even offer us a ride to the port. It's only 11 minutes walking from his hotel. The view is amazing."

"We absolutely loved staying here! It’s a lovely hotel just on the edge of town, giving you incredible views and a lovely short walk into the centre of town. Our room was beautifully furnished and exceeded expectations. All members of staff and the owner were great at arranging transport, making us feel welcome and making sure we had everything that we needed. An absolute gem of a hotel in Skopelos that provided an amazing stay. We also arrange a boat trip with George literally 24 hours beforehand and we’re so glad we did. He took us down to the port and straight onto his boat, had a few hours at sea for swimming and visiting the Mamma Mia church which was finished off with fruit and wine. Can’t recommend enough! Thank you "

"Reception staff were not knowledgeable or informative about the area or even the hotel at all. Manager was rude and ruthless and just stared rather than being friendly.The hotel pool had a thick layer of green gunk around the edges, pretty grim.We never saw the pool, pool area or the sunbeds being cleaned once. B/fast was pretty basic, same every day - what you'd expect. Chap at pool Bar was brilliant, room cleaners were also excellent. You're at the mercy of buses or cabs getting you into town. There are a lack of taxis on the island too. Aircon in room was SO loud, as was the fridge. The pillows were like concrete blocks and the mattress was completely solid too. I can fall asleep on a washing line but had terrible nights sleeps due to discomfort and electrical buzzing all night long. Has private beach 5 mins walk down a really really steep hill - but only 6 sunbeds there and be prepared to get washed away every time a ferry goes past. Decor was accents of orange - felt like an easyjet hotel.No cupboards or shelves, just x1 table. There's no iron even though it says there's an iron. Take your own hairdryer - the one provided was ancient. Views over to Skiathos port were epic and planes going right past at eye - level throughout the day - if you like that kind of thing. "

"Fantastic family owned property. Staff was extremely helpful and flexible. We stayed during a significant storm season and they were super helpful with potential extension of our stay and transportation needs. "
