Hilltop haven by the sea
Perched atop a scenic hill in Skiathos, with stunning panoramic views of the island, this hotel is perfect for a serene escape from everyday life. If you like to relax and soak up the local culture in equal measure on your holidays, you’ve come to the right place. With access to pristine beaches and historic monasteries, Amira Luxury Suites is the perfect destination for a memorable holiday.
In fact, you can relax and take in the sites at the same time here. Set yourself up on one of the loungers by the pool and spend the day unwinding whilst you take in 360 views of the charming island below. Then, venture down to the vibrant town centre. Wander through the paved streets to find delightful restaurants, taverns, shops, and bars. The picturesque harbour is perfect for a sunset stroll and features the historic Bourtzi Fortress.
You don’t have to venture far to sample the flavours of the island, though. Start the day right with a breakfast buffet fit for a king, featuring a variety of fresh options to suit every palate. For light bites and refreshing drinks throughout the day, the poolside snack has you covered with cocktails and snacks galore.
Please note due to its hilltop location, this hotel may not be suitable for those with walking difficulties.

Find out more about Skiathos Town
The neighbourhood of Plakes, with its maze of cobbled streets and whitewashed houses draped in Bougainvillea, is just asking to be Instagrammed. Likewise with the Old Port, which was one of the locations used in the hit musical movie, Mamma Mia!. The impressive Agios Nikolaos bell tower made an appearance, too, and it’s easy to see why. Pause at the churchyard for panoramic views over the port.
Papadiamantis Street is the main commercial street, and is the place to go for gyros, ice cream, souvenirs, and buzzing cocktail bars. It’s named after Alexandros Papadiamantis, the father of modern Greek literature, whose former childhood home has been turned into a museum nearby. Skiathitiko Spiti, a museum dedicated to the island’s traditional way of life, is well worth a visit too.
