How to save time booking a holiday rental in Skiathos

Being one of the Sporades Islands, holiday rental accommodation in Skiathos will place you a few miles off the coast of mainland Greece and somewhere in the middle of the crystal blue waters of the Aegean Sea and in a destination that boasts some of the finest beaches to be found on any Greek Island. Holiday farmhouses and villas provide all the enhanced space and private leisure facilities you need for a big family vacation in some idyllic situations of peaceful seclusion, although holiday accommodation in Skiathos of any descripti on exists in a choice of livelier coastal resorts if you'd prefer to experience the exciting atmosphere of a more cosmopolitan urban environment, like the island's principal town, Skiathos. Apartment rentals are widely available and are another popular option of holiday accommodation, able to cater for almost any number of people, so it won't matter what your requirements may be, you can find the perfect location and the ideal apartment or villa rental in Skiathos to provide you with a base from where you and your loved one - or your entire family! - can discover the vacation rental of a lifetime.

Skiathos is also one of the most popular islands in the Sporades chain of Greek islands in the Aegean Sea. With over 60 beaches and a host of wonderful tavernas and quiet shops, it is the perfect place for a family vacation, and with a huge selection of self catered accommodation to rent, both apartments and whole villas, it can be a surprisingly low cost place to take the kids and enjoy the ambience of the Sporades islands, with its pine wooded mountains and stone roofed villages.

The main attraction of Skiathos is its selection of 60 beaches, from the most well known Koukounaries to the naturist beach right next to it - the unfortunately named Banana beach. Once you've spent a few days working on your tan, the beaches are also popular with swimmers, and the older members of the family can also spend a few evenings investigating the nightlife and going clubbing. There are also a lot of jewellery shops. And away from the beaches and tourist centre, you can also go hiking across the green terrain and appreciate some of the culture of Skiathos by exploring Kastro, the abandoned medieval centre of the island. Also, it is possible to take trips to the other islands in the Sporades including the attractive but much quieter Skopelos and Alonnisos.

There are a huge selection of apartments and villa rentals in Skiathos City and all over the island, so it is well worth shopping around for deals. It is certainly possible to rent a villa large enough to accommodate a family of four or more for less than 500 a week, which is a great money saving option compared to the cost of booking hotel rooms. And as the villas come fully equipped with all modern comforts, plus luxury features such as private pools and wireless internet, it will certainly not feel like a low cost holiday. The extra privacy and space also mean that villa rentals are great for kids - the youngest members of your family can run around and let off steam without you needing to worry about disturbing your neighbours!
