Perched in a commanding panoramic position on the west coast of Skopelos, Adina is a scrupulously stylish villa designed with hedonistic pleasures in mind. The 20m-long, wow-inducing infinity pool might be enough for many people, but for those in search of it all, a path leads down through the grounds to a beach below, where the transparent cobalt-emerald waters of the Aegean await.

The Area
Adina sits in a privileged position on the west coast of Skopelos, between the little village of Neo Klima/Elios to the south and Glossa to the north. The former, which is possible to reach by kayak from Adina, has several mini-markets, a bakery, a few tavernas and other amenities, while the latter, a charming village with whitewashed streets and a shady panoramic square, has pretty much everything you might need.
Picturesque Skopelos Town and harbour, situated in the southeast of the island, is about 35 minutes' drive away.
Skopelos island is the perfect size to explore in a week or two and offers a good range of activities. A variety of beaches are dotted all around the island's nearly 70km of coastline. Right below the villa, accessed from the bottom of the garden, is Kalives beach and there are several others within a couple of kilometres. Many of Skopelos's beaches, such as those in Skopelos Town, Panormos (with a scuba diving centre) and Limnonari are easily accessible. Others can be reached only on foot or by sea, an excellent excuse for hiring a boat for a day or two and exploring the island's gorgeous coves and bays. One bay, Agnondas (just south of Limnonari beach), is particularly picturesque, and has a little port with a few beachfront tavernas.
Skopelos is also an emerald island, and the vibrant colours, heady fragrances and cooling shade of its pine and oak woods extend all the way down to the multi-blue-hued sea. There are several good walking trails across the hilly interior, whose two main peaks, Mount Palouki and Mount Delphi rise to 546m and 681m respectively. You will come across numerous monasteries on your way, as well as some superb views and a few sleepy villages where time seems to have stood still. One walk will lead you to the chapel of Agios Ioannis, which enjoyed its five minutes of fame as one of the locations for the film Mamma Mia!
Finally, just across the water, is Skopelos's sister Sporades Island, Alonissos, and its Marine Park. Both are highly recommended and easy to get to.

Boat rental in Skopelos
A holiday in the sun would not be complete without exploring the breath-taking coastline, majestic cliffs and glistening azure sea that your destination has to offer. The best way to experience this spectacle is from your very own rental boat, pottering along at a leisurely pace and occasionally stopping off to drop anchor and swim in secluded bays.
DiscoverPrivate boat charters in Skopelos
Set sail in the Sporades and explore the routes of pirates and merchants. Relax on the deck and enjoy the cooling winds and sunshine as you sail through the National Marine Park and its numerous deserted islands, beautiful coastlines, and small fishing villages.There are plenty of chances for swimming, sunbathing, and snorkeling while your captain introduces you to the islands’ history, traditions, and geography, which provides a natural habitat for many species, including monk seals, various types of dolphins, hawks, and gulls. If you're in luck, you'll spot a few en route.

We had a fantastic stay at Adina. What stood out was the location, the view, the access to the sea, and the excellent service. Skopelos is a beautiful island. We would return.

We had an incredible time at Adina - everything was absolutely perfect. The location, the villa, the surrounding area, and especially the amazing staff - like angels to us - made our stay unforgettable. The hospitality and service were impeccable - I’ve never experienced such excellent organization of all our needs on any other vacation. I cannot emphasize enough how happy we are and how much we loved Adina, The Thinking Traveller, and the entire team. We will definitely book with The Thinking Traveller again, and next time for even longer - perhaps at Adina or another wonderful option. Thank you so much for creating these lasting memories for all of us.

Adina is a unique property. It is utterly gorgeous and delivered all the requirements we had: six en-suite bathrooms; heated pool; direct access to private beach; amazing staff; and air conditioning in the entire house. We were not disappointed, and the pictures on the website do not do the property justice.

Adina is excellent. The staff were inobtrusive and did their jobs well.

We have rented plenty of top villas around the world - and Adina is one of the best. Great location with beach access, high quality fittings and equipment. Clean and beautifully designed. Fab views. The in-villa cook was outstanding and a super person.
