This vacation residence is located in a lush garden on a peninsula reaching from the city of Palio Klima. We privately rent this and it offers those seeking quietness and relaxation everything that belongs to an unforgettable vacation: wonderful, untouched nature far from tourism and a Mediterranean, tastefully and comfortably furnished 50m² house surrounded by patios in a quiet location. At about 100 m above sea level, the view from the west patio goes far above the sea, the small harbor of Glossa, the island of Skiathos, the Euböa peninsula and the mountains in the mainland. Underneath the property you will see a steep private property with olive gardens, almond trees and cypresses reaching to the crystal clear sea. You can watch dolphins playing again and again – and the sunsets are also an experience!

A 200 m long path leads from the main street between the seaside city of Glossa and the main location on the island Skopelos to the Irini house. Nearby there are 3 other houses on large properties ranging from 7000 to 10000 m² - all of which are made in a traditional construction style with stone roofs much different than our own architect – who will be taking care of you. Until recently, he lived in the Irini house and has now moved into one of the three houses. We live almost 6 months out of the year in the house located closest to Irini. You can go shopping in the nearby cities that, just like a few beaches, can be reached by bus. Most of our vacation guests on Skopelos rent two or four wheel vehicles in order to choose the suitable beach for every type of sun and wind, to make shopping easier and to choose from different restaurants.

Notes
The bedroom is located a step higher than the living room and is separated by a half wall. The spacious bathroom with WC and sink is located right by this room. There is a cot available for a child in the anteroom. The TV receives satellite reception where you can see stations in many different languages – including German. There are a lot of books! The kitchen is wonderfully equipped: electric stove with glass ceramic stove top (4 burners), oven with different types of heating, large refrigerator and freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, steam iron and ironing board. Microwave, blender, coffee machine, water cooker, electric grill. Porcelain and accessories for 6 people available. Adequate cabinet room.
There is a lot to discover: long, flat, romantic beaches in the bays of the rocky bluffs. Almost 70% of the island is forested! Hikers will love it here. Countless pails lead through the green, hilly mainland. The highest mountain is just about 700 m high. The island is blooming and smells lovely the whole year round. Gorse and erica change through out the whole year. Olive groves, gardens and balconies. A lot of churches, large and small monasteries and chapels are located throughout the island. Altogether there are about 400! Small fishing villages and boat harbors surround the coasts. The city of Skopelos is a pearl in the Mediterranean with its lively harbor promenade. From there you can take a boat tour to a “sea park” and visit a preservation area for seals, dolphins and a lot of types of birds. Motorboats and sailboats can be rented by the nearby beaches.
Interior view from Irini
Through the west-patio you will get to a small anteroom with a cozy reading corner. Three steps higher and you will reach the living room with its comfortable seats and an iron fireplace oven with a large glass door. This will provide for a cozy heat during cool evenings before and after the peak season. There is more than enough firewood available. Another step leads to the open bedroom (separated by a half wall) with a beautiful iron double bed with the best mattresses and slatted frame and a large canopy mosquito net. The spaciousness of the house is kept by its open construction, the Mediterranean furnishing and the high, Greek wooden beamed ceiling. In the living room is a small dining area with a table, 3 chairs and a beautifully painted cabinet. From here you can get to the spacious kitchen or to a small south-patio through a glass swing door.
Exterior view from Irini
Outside on the west-patio is the most beautiful place to eat, drink, read and watch! The patio covered by a pergola with bougainvillea. Here there is also a large marble table with a stone bench and pillow, plus chairs, club chairs and lounge chairs. You don’t want to miss the amazing sunsets. The small, idyllic patio garden is partially covered partially by trees and is surrounded by a stone wall and is also ideal for sunbathing. There is also a charcoal grill. There is a parking space in front of the garden gate.
