Kechria Bay Villas — An Island Discovery and Immersion
Skiathos, the Greek island part of the Sporades archipelago, is known for its awe-inspiring white beaches and youthful nightlife scene, but where do you stay if you want to experience the luscious side of Skiathos, without a thumping techno beat? You book yourself into one of three Kechria Bay Villas with a view Aegean sea and evergreen mountains.
The Magic Forest of Evergreen Kechria
Kechria Bay Villas can be found at the beginning of the most beautiful hiking path of the Magic Forest. Does this sound like something from a fairytale written by Hans Christian Andersen? With more than 25 routes across Kechria bay and its enchanted woodlands, you may find surprise pixies and fairy dust along the way.
Pack your Danner hiking boots because you will be able to hike through ancient watchtowers and forgotten monasteries and discover waterfalls away from the hustle and bustle of Greek tourism. Consider a hike to this Byzantine Castle to get your fill of culture and history.
Four-wheel drive is needed to access the villas, making it the perfect private getaway through 3 kilometers of dirt road. This place is where I go to dream of more analog times. There are numerous spots along the coast where you can enjoy an aperitivo and views of sailboats bobbing in rows on the water nearby.
Your Stay at Kechria Bay Villas
While the surrounding area is nothing short of breathtaking, you will struggle to get the motivation to leave the villas, which have been expertly designed by award-winning hhharchitects. Their architectural process involves taking the beauty of Greek tradition and putting it into a dialogue with contemporary architectural design. The result is three villas with three bedrooms, luxurious ensuite bathrooms, and fully equipped kitchens.
Enjoy cooking for yourself and your friends as you dine under a covered pergola with breathtaking views of the Aegean sea. When the sun starts to kiss the day goodbye, you can enjoy a romantic sunset from the comfort of your own sparkling private infinity pool.
The perfect peaceful stay for up to 6 people. As each of the bedrooms has its own separate entrance, the utmost privacy and comfort have been ensured for your visit.
The villas burst with touches of modern Greek living, from the exposed stone walls to bathroom amenities.
Gastronomy and Winery
For evenings when you don't want to cook in the modern kitchen and can tear yourself away from the pool, you have plenty of Greek cuisine on offer.
Parissi Winery
To experience the best Greek wine, visit Parissi Winery for a vineyard tour and exclusive wine tasting. Your villa concierge service will be more than willing to help you round off each evening with refinement in a bottle to help your soul sing.
Ithaki Restaurant
You can't leave Skiathos without having had a taste of modern Mediterranean Greek dining. The locally sourced ingredients and wide range of fish, shellfish, and lobster are unmatched in the Megalli Ammos area. Take in the sea view at Ithaki and let your toast to good food and even better friends.
