Anna Maria – Vanessa Apartments

We stayed in one of the two top floor apartments, the one with the very large outside terrace. This was equipped with table, chairs and sunbeds. We asked if it was possible to have towels for the sunbeds and these were provided. The terrace is shaded and has a beautiful view of the sea and harbour. Apartment is newly fitted and everything very clean. Maid came in each day to clean, make the bed, empty bins etc. Sheets were changed every other day. Kitchen area was great for preparing breakfast and snacks, but if you actually wanted to cook a full meal you might need a little more equipment. Good size fridge with small freezer. Bed was king size and comfortable. Bathroom with shower cubicle. Air con worked very well and was quiet. Top floor apartments are accessed from the floor below by an outside open staircase which wasn't a problem for us but might be for someone elderly or young children. A little bit awkward to get luggage up and down. The village itself has a few good restaurants, a bakery, a couple supermarkets, beach bar and ATM. Two gravel beaches with sunbeds and umbrellas are either side of the harbour, just a few minutes walk. There are a few buses a day going along the coast to various beaches, Skopelos town and Glossa. Domitrios is very helpful and arranged taxis for us on arrival and departure. He can also arrange car hire if required. Really enjoyed our stay, the only thing that would have made it even better was some comfortable mattresses for the sunbeds!
