The best villa ever…!
Shane’s villa was a 10/10 experience! The views were absolutely stunning and I used this location to propose to my girlfriend. The poolside proposal was a huge success and gave us incredible photos! We stayed for a week and could have stayed for a month. The location was great, close to Glossa village and nearby supermarkets. It is peaceful but close enough to everything on the island by car if you want to enjoy the vibrant restaurants and beach life. The drive up to the villa is steep and narrow towards the top, but after the first time heading up it, it was a breeze! It is worth it for the view and tranquillity at the top.
The villa provided everything we needed including a BBQ, a beautiful clean 8x4 pool, a fantastic veranda to sit and have drinks on and watch the sunset. The main bedroom was spacious and comfortable and had much needed air con!
Shane was extremely helpful throughout the whole process of renting the villa, booking the hire car and of course in our case recommending a fantastic proposal photographer! His colleagues Eleni and Anthoula were attentive and easily contactable in case of any questions.
It is one of the most beautiful and relaxing places we have ever been to and hope to return very soon! If you’re thinking of a proposal or special occasion in Greece there is no better place!
P.S feed the family of cats! As animals lovers we were thrilled to meet a mother cat and her kittens, and we put food out for them. They politely waited by the door for us on the last couple of nights before going for a snooze under a lounger.

Outstanding villa with a fantastic view
June 2022
The villa is absolutely fantastic, not visible above Glossa! It is superbly equipped with many loungers and seating options, in the sun as well as in the shade. Bathrooms and bedrooms are beautifully designed and the kitchen offers enough space for cooking and preparing. The views from the terrace, bedroom and pool can't be beat. From noon is sun until sunset.
The approach is steep, but can be mastered with any car.
On-site support from Eleni is wonderful and absolutely uncomplicated. The same goes for communicating with Shane. Very accommodating and polite!
Thank you Shane and Eleni. We had a fantastic time and already miss the villa!!!
Efcharisto poli!

This home has undoubtedly the best view on the island. We spent every evening watching amazing sunsets across Skiathos and to mainland Greece. Great pool and outside shower. BBQ with all the kit. Lovely boho feel to the villa with hammocks and comfy outside sofas and inside beds! If you want seclusion but a short drive to Glossa, stunning views and total relaxation, this place is fabulous.

The House of Shane overlooks the Port De Glossa, tutoie Skiathos and the sky of the sporades.
To this must be added a house of character very well renovated in an authentic taste of the island With all the comforts necessary.
The situation of the house surrounded by vegetation on the stone terraces is magical.
The pool is suitable for beginner swimmers and the climb is (Website hidden by Airbnb) need for 4x4..
Anthoula who relays Shane on the spot is full of dynamism, helpful and attentive.
We were 5 And had a stay as said My daughter "dreamlike"
To highly recommend

A lovely private villa in a beautiful location with spectacular views and surrounding gardens. The house is not over-looked and it is very well designed to enjoy its elevated position: the verandah, hammocks and pool are positioned to relax and enjoy the far reaching views of Glossa, the sea and distant islands. Lots of lovely outside areas to sit, eat, escape the heat and relax. The showers are excellent, the beds are very comfortable with good quality linen and towels also the bedrooms remain relatively cooler than the rest of the house which really aided good sleep. We slept very deeply. Shane recommends a Jeep and you do need it for the steep single track roads. We highly recommend this property if you like peace and quiet and being in a rural location. However you can walk to and from Glossa it doesn't take too long. There is far more space around the villa than shown in the photos. Being on a hill meant lots of steps, stairs but worth it for the views.
