Princess Resort, Skiathos

Location

Princess Resort is beautifully situated among Mediterranean gardens on the south coast of Skiathos, with the sandy beach of Agia Paraskevi and the crystal clear waters of the Aegean Sea right on its doorstep. Another of the island’s finest beaches, Koukounaries, is just a 10-minute drive along the coast, while the charming main town, Skiathos Town, is also just 10-15 minutes away by taxi, with its attractive combination of cobbled streets and traditional whitewashed houses that curve around a picturesque bay.

All of them come with a private balcony or terrace where you can unwind and embrace the tranquility of your surroundings, while air conditioning, complimentary Wi-Fi access, a flat-screen TV and a mini bar come as standard. The most spacious and luxurious suites also feature a private pool or Jacuzzi.

Dining

An extensive breakfast buffet is served every morning at Basilico, featuring a plentiful spread of freshly baked pastries, fruit and savory dishes to set you up perfectly for the day ahead.

There’s a bar by the poolside, too, where you can enjoy a selection of snacks as well as a wide range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.
