Ostria Hotel

If you've been dreaming of a peaceful island escape, set your sights on this charming, family-run hotel of self-catering apartments in Skiathos. 

Tucked amongst the greenery you'll find a cheerful restaurant that offers al fresco dining overlooking the outdoor pool. From casual breakfasts to daytime snacks enjoyed from the comfort of your sun lounger, you won't have to wander far when hunger strikes. There's a poolside bar to keep the drinks flowing, too. More of a beach baby? You're in luck on that front as well – Platanias Beach is just five minutes' walk away. 
 
Spread out across a cluster of two-storey, white-washed buildings with technicolour blue touches, the studios have got bags of quintessential Greek character. Light and airy, with air conditioning and kitchenettes, you should have everything you need to make the most of your stay. Each one comes with a balcony or terrace, too, which makes the perfect spot to wind down the evening.
