Tzeni's House

Beautiful characterful home with gorgeous views and all the necessary facilities. I loved the terrace and balcony- my favourite spots to unwind in the evenings. It was nice to be met on arrival and shown the property.

Possibly a personal issue but struggled getting around and found the town very confusing to navigate- some more guidance on location/recommendations would’ve been helpful. Also there are lots of stairs so not great for suitcases- again not a huge problem for me but not suitable for people with mobility issues.

Location is great. The house is well equipped, has everything for a nice stay. The view is awesome. The air conditioning was working very well.

Unfortunately we had a bad experience with the host and the management. I and my family arrived ~10 pm and were welcomed by the host at the (as he said) free parking lot where he reserved a parking spot for us. This seemed very kind until I realized in the next early morning that I got a EUR 40 fine from the police. I reached out to the host for explanation and the only message was along the lines that “this fine is ridiculous”. After that he stopped any communication. I reached out separately to the management through booking and did not receive any response. I do not know if this was a negligence plus unacceptable behavior or a willful act. If they paid the fine since they misled us - that would have been great; I did not expect this to happen, but at least a simple apology and a EUR 5 bottle of wine could have mitigated the issue. We are travelling to Greece for years, multiple times per year, and this is the first time we face such an attitude. Secondly, there was mold in the house, the smell of which spread throughout the house.

The property was compact, but well thought out and a great size for a couple - everything we needed was there and more. There were also lots of nice touches that made the house feel like a home. The outdoor spaces were lovely - great views out over the beautiful harbour made for a great start to the day and a lovely place to chill after a busy day on the beaches of Skopelos. The host was superb - nothing was too much trouble - he even came to our rescue from the other side of the island when we inadvertently locked ourselves out!
