About this property

3 bed Villa, 3 mins from town and beach. Sleeps 6. No car needed .

When comparing Villa Harmonia to others on offer in Skala and around, we encourage you to check location as we believe that this is one of the very few villas that are truly "in Skala" rather than having a Skala address but being a drive out of town. Villa Harmonia is situated in a quiet, secluded location in the village of Skala with it's restaurants, bars and shops . Being in the village makes it easy to walk to and from the beach or shops and, most importantly, in the evening no need to decide who is designated driver or trying to arrange a taxi. There are two upstairs, en suite bedrooms, one a king sized double and the other a twin and a further twin ground floor bedroom with an adjacent family bathroom. The ground floor bedroom is perfect for an elderly or disabled guest or one who might otherwise find stairs a problem - or for teenagers who may want to stay out later than the rest of the family and be able to come in at 4am without waking the rest of the house! All three bedrooms and the main sitting room are air conditioned and each has a clock/radio/bluetooth speaker system. Outside there are patios to the front and rear of the house ensuring there is always outdoor dining available in the shade. The kitchen is fully equipped with cooker, fridge/freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster, juicer and Dolce Gusto coffee machine. All linen, including bath and beach towels, is included as is a small welcome pack on arrival. The location of Villa Harmonia is such that a hire car is not needed unless you want to explore the rest of the island. The sitting room is equipped with TV, DVD and Xbox One console. Villa Harmonia does not have it's own pool, but there is a hotel pool at the end of the drive which is open to the public, as are many others in the village. To the outside, both the front and back patio have dining tables and there are sun loungers and a table tennis table on a third, lower patio. The house has Wi-Fi.
Villa Harmonia is a NO SMOKING property.

What a fabulous place to stay!
The house is lovely, spacious, comfortable and perfect for a family of 4 or 6. It’s set in Scala, on a quite little cul-de-sac and is the end property of 3. The kitchen and living space is well presented and comfortable with everything you need. The bedrooms of a good size, the ones upstairs re en-suite, both have balconies from which you can see the sea. There is a balcony off the living room and from the kitchen access to the garden and terrace which runs round the house. I’d highly recommend the house, just a very short stroll to both the beech and into the town where there are a good array of shops and restaurants. It’s the perfect holiday location from which with a car you can explore the beaches and other towns on the island. Thank you for letting us stay in your fabulous house.

Absolutely fabulous place to stay!
From start to finish, the experience has been excellent. The hosts kept up communication at every step of the journey and couldn’t have done more to help. They were unfailingly kind, attentive and considerate. Upon arrival, they had provided some bread, ham, cheese, teas and coffees, orange juice, wine, crisps - all of which were so welcome after a late night flight! Truly grateful! The property itself is in a great location - very close to the beauty of beach (the quieter end) yet within super easy walking of the heart of the village. There is a relatively short and steep incline from the property up to the street, which someone less mobile might struggle with in the heat, but we didn’t find it troublesome. The Big Village Pool is at the top of that slope and was a perfect pit stop for a dip and a coffee. There are multiple really nice tavernas and bars, within 5 minutes’ walk, plus bakeries, souvenir shops, creperies and icecreams so everyone was comfortable catered for. We did a little self catering at lunch time and the odd evening meal, and the supermarkets were well stocked with fruit, veg, rice, pasta plus some meat. Most was frozen but the AB supermarket had some fresh meat in it. I only mention this for planning purposes. The kitchen has everything you need, incidentally - dishwasher, oven, hob, plus lots of cutlery and utensils. We found the prices very reasonable in Skala - and ate so much lamb and seafood!! The villa itself is extremely comfortable with any number of seating areas, which made it very convenient as a family space. I came here with my mum, her boyfriend, my husband and 2 sons (10 and 14), and it was great that people could go off to their rooms, sit in various terraces, play ping pong or use the X Box. It’s super clean!! It was so nice to have the place cleaned several times whilst we were there, plus the beds and towels changed midway through the stay. We had a very late night flight, and our hosts couldn’t have been kinder in allowing us to vacate later, and giving us some respite from the heat whilst waiting for the taxi. I couldn’t recommend this villa or their hosts any more highly.

About the host

Hosted by Chris & Andrew McKenzie

Host profile image
We live on the south coast of the UK with our youngest son, our other children having left home and/or married. We bought Villa Harmonia as somewhere to holiday with our family and friends and intend to spend a lot more time there when we retire. We've had many happy family holidays in this safe, friendly village with wonderful beaches and a great selection of family restaurants and bars.

Why they chose this property

We visited Skala in 2007 and bought the house on the same trip as we fell in love with the island and the village. There's more than enough to entertain a family of all ages but the real benefit was the sense of safety in Skala, it really is the sort of place where you feel you can let teenagers have their freedom without worrying too much! We liked the house as it is so convenient, has a bath (rare in Greece!) and, more importantly, 3 bath/shower rooms so there's not too much of a squabble when the whole family are showering after the beach or trying to get ready to go out for dinner.

What makes this property unique

Villa Harmonia sits about 300 yards from the main street of Skala and slightly less from the sea. It's location is actually on the edge of the village so is very quiet and, being close to a stream bed (dried up in summer) is slightly cooler than the main village which is a boon on those long hot summer nights.
We have fitted UK standard power outlets in the bedrooms and sitting room
