We had a fabulous stay at The Water. The room was stunning and the view from the balcony was breathtaking. Dimitris was very friendly and was very helpful with extending our checkout to later on in the day so we could leave our stuff before our evening flight. Only criticisms was no full length hanging space for dresses/ trousers. I’m not particularly keen on a wet room which this was and would have been good to know this before, because the bathroom was quite small, everything was wet after a shower. We read lots of reviews about noise disturbance however we did not have an issue with this at all and we were in the room next to the bar. The balcony door is pretty much soundproof. Overall, we had a fabulous stay, location was incredible and the views from the balcony make this property a must when staying in Skiathos.

Beautiful setting, great views, friendly staff

A Beautiful setting, fantastic friendly staff, good sized modern room. Really enjoyed our stay at The Water and will return next year. Worth noting if you are a light sleeper, perhaps avoid as the cocktail bar next door is open until 3am, hotel does provide ear plugs to help mitigate this.

Lovely room in The Water overlooking the sea, perfect to people watch and observe the activity on the port. Lovely friendly staff. Bathroom a bit dark, but that’s the only negative. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely stay at the Water

Arrived before official check in but chap on reception was very helpful and as my room was ready I was able to check in early. Communication with the hotel was excellent. I was in a room street side and although room had no view and was close to local bars and restaurants, it was clean and the noise didn’t affect my sleep. My only slight criticism was there was a coffee mug and pod in the room but no facilities. It wasn’t till 3rd day when I asked that I found out there are facilities in the basement to make tea and coffee… I would visit again.

Limited directions on how to get to this hotel - it is not accessible by car, and not on Google Maps. No one to greet me at the front desk and phone calls went unheeded. Loud dance music until 3am. Coffee was offered but none was in the room nor at the coffee station. When asked, the front desk person didn’t know how to operate the machine.

This was a real gem! Would book again in a heartbeat. Location, location, location! So calm and relaxing sitting on the terrace as the tide gently rolls up. Who needs a noise machine. Staff wonderful and welcoming. Excited that you are there to share their wonderful island. Perfect.
