The terracotta colored walls and dark wood beamed ceilings compliment the colorfully tiled floors. The fully equipped kitchen, with full sized electric cooker/oven, has a big window facing out to the sea. The large double French doors next to the kitchen lead to a terrace that makes for easy serving of al-fresco meals. This living room of this cottage is also comfortably furnished and has a large couch, a sofa (which turns into a bed for 1 person) and spectacular views to the lush green forests and sea. Stairs lead up from the kitchen area to the large double bedroom with windows looking out over the hillside. Exterior: The exterior walls have been painted in bright colors, a technique taken from ancient times and which complement the surroundings. There is a BBQ to one side of the house and outside dining table, taking advantage of the shady pergola just outside the main entry door and in front of the private swimming pool and large pool terrace. Villa Pegasus has its own “privacy”, walls and a gated entrance from the private driveway and responding parking area.

Perfect Romantic Retreat on Skopelos!We had a fantastic stay at this lovely villa on Skopelos. The views were beautiful, and its secluded location offered wonderful peace and privacy, ideal for a romantic getaway.The villa itself was very nice and comfortable. The owner was incredibly kind and helpful, making communication super easy with just one quick message.We highly recommend this spot for couples seeking a charming, quiet escape with great views and excellent service. We'd love to return!
Everything about our stay was just brilliant . The location was so peaceful but still in the middle of the island so was really central for getting to all the different beaches. Perfect for a couple or small family and the swimming pool is a great size and really refreshing after a day at the beach. Would definitely recommend!

Far away, but yet so close to it all!
Peace, views, relaxation.
Thank you so much Amanda for being our guests!
Hope to have you back!!
If you are looking for a tranquil and peaceful get away from it all, this villa is perfect! Fabulous views, no noise apart from the occasional jangle of goat bells, lush greenery and a wonderful aroma from the many gorgeous plants around the totally private pool.
We had such a lovely time in this beautiful house. Very private and so relaxing. Great pool. Dimitris is a great host, always available for any queries but never intrusive. Everything has been thought through so the house is really well-equipped and furnished in style. Also, the most comfortable bed we’ve ever had in a rental. Thanks so much Dimitris, we would love to come back!

What an honor!
We would love to have you back Terrie!
It is a great success for us to see that our guests' expectations have been fulfilled.
If you come to Skopelos to seek quietness and peacefulness, I will definitely recommend Villa Pegasus or actualy one off the three Villas you can rent from Dimitris.
Villa Pegasus is perfect located on the hillside and in short distance from beaches as Milla, Stafylos etc and Main town of Skopelos. We had a greate stay, thank you Dimitris for be in touch and make sure that everything was perfect for us.

One more reward for us, a great holiday for our customers!
It is very important for us to communicate what is to be expected from our guests with regards to our houses, Pegasus, Kentavros and Arktos. We want to offer relaxation, the natural beauty of the landscape with great views down the gulf of Skopelos town and we certainly want to make sure that everything is running smoothly, without disturbing.
Thank you Jonathan!

Beautiful spot
It was our first journey to Skopelos and we really enjoyed it very much. The friendliness of the people is amazing.
It is a wonderful place with a beautiful view, furnished in a very tasteful way. I can definitely recommend it. The place is very peaceful and quiet, a perfect opportunity to relax.
The property is well looked after and you get every assistance that you need. You can cook your food in a well-equipped kitchen.

Beautiful villa and lovely stay
This is a beautiful little villa, perfect for a couples holiday. It's very peaceful and has a lovely view of Skopelos town. The villa itself was clean and well kept, as was the garden area and the pool. Dimitris was a great host and was beyond helpful, assisting us with car hire and boat transport from Skiathos. He was also amazing when our flight got cancelled in sorting everything for us, and making sure we were happy! We would definitely recommended anyone to stay here, especially those exploring the island, or just want a peaceful and private get away. It's recommended to hire a car, however everywhere you need to get to is easily accessible by car.
Overall we had a wonderful stay and would recommend it to anyone!
Thank you very much for a lovely stay.

Beautiful villa in a perfect away from it all location but just close enough to Skopelos town
Pegasus is a beautiful villa set in the side of a steep valley overlooking Skopelos. Despite there being two other villas nearby you almost wouldnt know it and the peace and quiet is only disturbed by the steady ringing of goats bells as they wander the forest in the valley below and occasionally are herded along the road above.
Villa facilities are great although a barbecue would be a welcome addition and the pool is perfectly sized for two people although being on the north side of the valley the sun goes off the pool and terrace by about 5 o' clock.
Located midway between Skopelos and Agnondas its perfectly positioned to explore the island.
The villa was kept spotlessly clean during our atay with towel linen and pool service every 3 days.
We would certainly consider returning to Pegasus in the future

Comfortable villa,quiet location, stunning views of surrounding countryside and Skopelos town..
The villa itself is in an idyllic location and presented in the typical traditional Greek style in doors and out. It is reasonably well equipped but lacking a toaster in the kitchen, which we missed. Pillows on the bed were soft which is a bonus compared to many other places we have stayed in Greece.
The pool was adequate for a cool down dip after roasting in the sun, water surprisingly cold a bit of a shock on first dip, but did the job of a prompt cool down. The property and outdoor area generally appeared a bit tired and in need of TLC. The location of the villa means you loose the late afternoon and evening sun, this will obviously vary on time of year. We were there in September so the villa and garden/pool area was in complete shade by 16.30hrs. The only thing which ruined it for us which was no fault of the owner were the wasp. We only spent 2 days out of 14 lounging by the pool. We were plagued and swarmed by wasp which were worse in the mornings and late afternoon/evening. Couldn't enjoy sitting outside and couldn't leave doors open or they entered the villa, they seemed to swarm around front door and shaded sitting area. The owner was very helpful and got someone to put traps down but these did not make much difference. Don't know if it was just a bad time of year for wasps, we were there September, or if there is a nest nearby it seems the pool attracts them as well. We went out all the other days to escape them.
You definitely need a car to explore the Island. There are lots of quiet secluded beaches to be found other than the popular commercial beaches, but a bit of a hair raising drive to get to some of them due to the steep mountainous narrow windy roads, both tarmac and dirt tracks but worth it, beautiful quiet beaches with crystal clear water. Lots of shrines at the road sides which is a bit disconcerting, so take it as a warning to drive carefully!
Loved Skopelos town, nice nights out exploring all the restaurants which serve traditional Greek and Mediterranean cuisine, these are mostly hidden away from the harbour front up the cobbled streets. Best ones are Perivoli, To Rodi, Olivio and Alexanders. Anna's is also nice but slow service. All are reasonably priced. Good cocktail bar at harbour front only 5 euros each. Everyone very friendly and accommodating and generally all speak English.
Overall we had a fantastic time and Skopelos is a beautiful not over commercialized Island with or without wasps!

What a pity!
Our role is to do everything in our power to assist our guests so that they have a truly memorable holiday. Ever since our first contact, up to the day of their departure, we mean to be there for them any time they ask for our assistance.
I understand that due to her fineness Karen didn’t want to worry us, but this is what we are here for. The truth is that this year we had plenty of wasps, but all we had to do is put traps on a daily basis. Concerning the toaster, it would have been so simple to just buy one.
Regarding the shade, I understand that we might need to trim the trees so that we can ensure more sunshine throughout the entire terrace around the pool during September.
Thank you both for your constructive comments and hope to have you back in the future.
Agréable maison environnée de nature. La grand pièce très lumineuse dans laquelle on rentre et qui réunie salon et cuisine / coin repas permet une circulation simple entre le l'intérieur et l'extérieur. Elle permet aussi de se poser agréablement à l'intérieur dans la journée. Chambre très spacieuse et. très confortable. Piscine parfaite pour se rafraichir. Seul petit bémol fin septembre, le jardin est à l'ombre un peu tôt l'après midi. Au total, un très bon séjour... on recommande!
C’est une villa magnifique dans un endroit magnifique!On n’a plus envie de partir.La vue, la piscine, la villa, l’île …un petit paradis. Dimitris est toujours disponible et d’une extrême gentillesse On revient !!
sehr ruhiges Anwesen umgeben von altem Baumbestand, absolut privat, sehr liebevoll eingerichtetesx altes Haus mit persönlicher Note, ausgestattet mit allem was man braucht.
Die schönsten Strände in 15 Minuten mit dem Auto erreichbar. Wir haben eine wundervolle, erholsame Woche hier verbracht. Die Kommunikation mit dem Inhaber war super schnell, sehr profesionell und jederzeit erreichbar. Einfach perfect😊
A beautiful little hideaway in a perfect location. Stunning views . Peaceful with only the goats bells jingling in the evening coming down from the hills. Fabulous pool .
The villa provides everything you need for a perfect stay. Comfortable bed, loads of hot water for shower ,great bbq . Dimitris, our host, was marvellous. We had a few hiccups with ferries being cancelled but Dimitris sorted everything out for us and made our journey so easy. Can’t recommend highly enough, so only problem was that we had to leave and come home. Already looking to book for next year .
La maison est parfaitement située dans un nid de verdure avec une vue sur le port de Skopelos. La piscine est agréable.
Cette maisonnette est idéale pour un couple.
Our stay at Villa Pegasus was wonderful. Villa Pegasus is a traditional villa. Nothing new or glitzy but everything you need
is there and it all works. Unexpectedly, laundry was changed in the middle of our stay. The pool is a delight in the afternoon and evening. I recommend a car or scooter. Villa Pegasus is for two people. More could fit but I would find it
harder. Demitris is a wonderful host with excellent, fast communication. Anything we needed was sorted immediately.
Communication with the owner was great, very polite and helpful. Charmingly decorated and a great space for a romantic getaway, nice colours and style, comfy bed. The house is located in a great location, very quiet, on a high spot that offers beautiful views of Skopelos town. Now for the negative points, the pool was not properly cleaned for our arrival, lots of leaves, soil, dead insects etc, not inviting at all. We were told by the person who showed us into the property that we could clean it ourselves with the skimmer during our stay, wish it was at least clean to begin with. As mentioned on previous reviews, the property is surrounded by trees and plants which definitely need a proper trimming, gardening, landscaping to make it presentable, this will also help in having a bit more sun on the outside area which is in shade after early afternoon. The private drive to the property is well lit, it would be good to even the road and remove a few large stones. Skopelos is a very green and beautiful island, worth visiting.
as a family of three (baby of 4 months), we really enjoyed having our own space with a pool. The bedroom upstairs was a perfect size for us, Dimitris kindly provided us with a cot which was great.
Great location, you can get to most places on the island within 30 minutes by car.
Propriétaire très sympathique et disponible. Adorable maison avec piscine et vue sur mer et collines. Île adorable et plages fantastiques. Bref, que du bonheur !
Thank you Mr Bessilas!
We had a brilliant 10 days in Skopelos. Pegasus has the most incredible views from the upstairs bedroom, living area and kitchen and is so peaceful. We loved chilling by the pool in the morning and then driving to one of the many beaches for the late afternoon. In the evening we sat by the pool star gazing and watching the bats. Dimitris was really helpful organising our hire car and arranging for us to be met at the port. We hadn't realised that the towels and sheets would be changed twice during our stay plus the bins emptied for us which was a nice surprise.
We definitely needed a car as you can't walk out anywhere, but this wasn't a problem as we enjoy exploring when we're on hols.
Perfect house with or without kids.

It is so rewarding for us to see that our guests enjoy what our houses have to offer!
Peace and quiet, away from it all, with great views down the gulf od Skopelos town and yet only ten minutes away from Skopelos town and the nearest beaches.
Thank you Emma for being our guests!!
Beautiful one bedroom rustic villa in an elevated position looking out onto skopelos town and port.
10 minutes drive down into the port to the tavernas , supermarket and ferry.
We were picked up from the ferry by Kosmas and arrived at the villa to find water and a complimentary bottle of wine perfectly chilled.
We hired a scooter which Dimitris organised for us 88 Euros for the week.
It’s the best way to see the Island and the roads are good and quiet during June.
Peek season is July and August so we felt really lucky to stay during June.
The pool is heavenly and was cleaned part way through the week of our stay, we also had fresh sheets and towels delivered and the villa was freshened up for us.
Dimitris is always quick to answer any queries regarding the villa and although he wasn’t on the island during our stay he made sure we were well looked after.
We had WiFi so it was easy to research places we wanted to visit, would highly recommend trip advisor as we wanted to book a sailing trip and the reviews for BBQ sailing trip on the boat Lilly owned and conducted by Juan is advertised amongst the boats in the port was true to its word , an amazing experience.
All the beaches are breathtakingly beautiful
Everyone on the island speaks good English and are happy to give directions or helpful information
I would recommend you take a wireless speaker that way it’s easy to stream music whilst basking on your sunbed or swimming in the pool.
Skopelos is truly beautiful in every way and the villa allows you to experience the peace and tranquility.
Ferry times to Skiathos for our flight home weren’t good as we had to leave very early but the managers at the port tavernas are happy to hold your luggage and call a taxi for you when it’s time to leave for the airport which is 5 minutes away.
Wishing we were still there and taking home some wonderful memories.
Many thanks to Dimitris and his team
We will be back!

Charming farmhouse style villa
We stayed at Villa Pegasus for two weeks Sept/Oct. The villa is really charming with an authentic feel and ideal for a couple that want to get away from it all, as it set up in the hills about 10/15 mins from Skopelos town. I would highly recommend a Jeep/ 4x4 if you stay at this property as there is a fairly steep/rocky access to the villa. The surroundings are wonderful and on a clear night sitting on the patio/terrace the sky is amazing. Dimitris the owner is excellent in all aspects of communication from the initial booking through to any problems/issues that might arise and are quickly resolved. The villa is well serviced with a regular change of towels and linen. It is close to one of our favourite beaches Limnonari and also close to the fantastic fish tavernas at Aganondas where you can sit and watch the wonderful sunsets with lovely fresh fish, a greek salad and a bottle of wine . We would also recommend the sunset kayaking trip with Kayaking Skopelos, which was amazing and Nikos and Dora at WindBoat Rentals who are a great couple with really great well maintained boats. Thank you Dimitris for all your assistance we had a thoroughly enjoyable time even if the weather was rather challenging for a few days of our stay.
