Villa Afrodite sits high in the hills above Skopelos town in the Raches area of the island. It enjoys fabulous views of the rooftops of town and the beautiful semi-circular harbour below. With traditional touches such as wood beamed ceilings and terra cotta floors, this newly built villa is tastefully decorated in a summery island style. Villa Afrodite has 3 bedrooms and 2 w/c shower rooms (1 with bath) and has air conditioning.

INTERIOR
Entering into the spacious open plan kitchen, sitting room and dining area – the modern feel of Villa Afrodite combines well with the old traditional touches.  Open beamed wooden ceilings and terra cotta flooring adds a country feel to the rooms.  The kitchen is well equipped and includes a microwave oven and dishwasher with plenty of counter space for preparation - a wonderful place to try your hand at Greek-style cooking.  The sitting room is comfortably furnished with soft blue sofas and from the dining area there are full views of the lovely hillsides around.  The furnishings, fireplace, arched doorways and other traditional details add a warmth and character to the decor.
 
There is a bedroom on this ground floor which is furnished with a double bed and has an en-suite w/c shower room.  A balcony door leads out to the front terrace and pool area.

A stairway leads from the main floor to the upper level bedrooms.  Here there are two bedrooms, each furnished with a double bed.  The back bedroom has double French doors leading out to a side terrace which have fantastic views to the pool and sea and is furnished with table and chairs.  The front bedroom has double French doors leading to a balcony which is also furnished with table and chairs.  Both bedrooms enjoy some of the most wonderful views offered on this side of the bay – roof tops of town, picturesque harbour and full sea views toward the neighbouring island of Alonissos.  One can easily imagine sitting for a morning coffee or evening retsina in this fabulous spot, watching the moon rise above the opposite hills.  There is a spacious shared bathroom in the hallway. 

EXTERIOR
The wonderful views and spacious terraces of Villa Aphrodite are perhaps the best asset of the villa.  There is plenty of room for kids and parties poolside which will make leaving the villa an option not often taken.  There is a dinning table on the terrace and the kitchen is close by for easy serving of holiday meals.  The BBQ is also a great option when cooking for large parties.  The villa is in a private setting surrounded by olive groves.

SURROUNDINGS
Villa Afrodite sits high in the hills above the town which afford it such spectacular views.  The surrounding hillsides are covered in olive groves and have walking trails in numerous directions.  The villa has two roads leading to it – one a steeply winding ‘short route’ which takes only minutes to reach the town – and the other ‘long route’ winds around the hillside on an unmade road and leads to an asphalt road that takes one easily down to town in about 7 minutes drive.  The lively town and waterfront of Skopleos Town has plenty of quaint shops and garden restaurants.  The port is lined with traditional Greek fishing boats and the cafes along the waterfront are a perfect place to while away the hours watching the world go by.  The nearest beach to the villa is Glyfoneri which can be reached in approximately 7 minutes by car.

SUITABILITY
Villa Afrodite makes a great villa choice for both families and friends travelling together.  Its convenient layout combined with fabulous views both inside and out will certainly satisfy everyone in the party.  The private pool helps to ensure a relaxing holiday for all.
