Adina is the best villa we have ever stayed in. The infinity pool with the view is amazing. Having direct access to your own beach was greatly appreciated. The villa itself was really well thought out, beautifully designed and well stocked. The on site staff were absolutely fantastic. Would we return? Yes, we would definitely return - 100%. Already looking into next year!

About the property

Inside

accommodation at Adina is arranged over two wings on slightly different levels, and an externally accessed suite on the lower ground floor. The style throughout is one of contemporary minimalist chic, where a calming palette of white, grey and natural wood exalts the property's clean lines and geometric forms, and where designer furnishings are juxtaposed against feature walls in cool grey slate. Myriad sea-view windows open out onto the surrounding terraces and add to the airy, luminous and sophisticated atmosphere.

The main entrance takes one into a hallway, off which the accommodation flows. To the left, one enters a large open-concept communal space, home to a convivial dining area, a sleek kitchen centred around a long island work station, and a double-sized living area featuring modern curvilinear sofas and chaise longues, a large TV, and a suspended metal fireplace.

Near the fireplace, a door opens into the first of the five bedrooms. This generously proportioned double-aspect room has a large double bed, two sets of glass bi-fold doors opening out onto the terraces and bringing in the sea views, a voluptuous en-suite bathroom with tub. Just outside is a large, sheltered al fresco hot-water shower (which also serves the pool) and a little gym.

Heading back to the entrance hall, a few steps lead down to the second wing, home to four more bedrooms, three doubles and a double-twin accessed from a corridor. All have en-suite shower rooms, wonderful sea views and open directly onto a furnished terrace, from where, via a few steps, one may arrive at the pool area and the path down to the sea.

The remaining accommodation at Adina is situated in the lower ground floor, accessed via some external steps. Here there is a guesthouse, comprising a double bedroom, an en-suite shower room, an open-plan living and dining space, and a kitchenette. Although it doesn't have sea views, this is a great space for those seeking independence.

Outside

guests staying at Adina naturally gravitate to the large expanse of sea-view terrace accessed from the communal areas and the master suite. The creamy white stone of this area gives way to one of our most stylish pools, a slender, 20m-long heatable infinity pool that is perfect for those who wish to indulge in some "serious" swimming. Just below the pool is a bathroom.

The terrace wraps around one side of the first wing, where there is a delightful shady al fresco dining area and outdoor kitchen overlooking the sea. Steps connect this area to the terrace of the second wing, creating an easy flow around the entire property. Spellbinding sunsets, well-designed exterior lighting and an integrated sound system make for unforgettable convivial al fresco evenings.

Adina's terraces are surrounded by luxuriant gardens, which blend seamlessly with the natural greenery of the coastline.

Lastly, though for many guests perhaps the most important feature of Adina, is its beach access. A path of 80 easy steps wends its way down through the gardens, which opens out onto a peaceful, secluded sandy-pebbly beach and the irresistible waters of the Aegean Sea. Halfway down is a delightful tree-shaded lounge area that's perfect for gazing out to sea, taking a siesta, or, thanks to the presence of a shower and a drinks fridge, cooling off in style.

About 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.

Considerations

Adina features a fantastic infinity pool, offering swimmers stunning sea views while in the pool. There is a drop from the infinity edge so we recommend children are supervised at all times when around and using the pool.

Please note that due to the risk of wildfires, the use of fire pits and barbecues is restricted when the weather is windy or temperatures are high. This is particularly common in July and August. More information will be provided in your House Guide and via your local specialist.

Adina is a beautiful villa in an amazing location close to the beach. The villa and the team that run it are really fantastic and we had such a great time. We feel very welcome and looked after by them all. This was our third time at Adina and we will hopefully be back again!

Verified guest, visited August 2025

Adina was very well appointed, the AC really worked and it was immaculately looked after. All the staff at the villa were excellent.

MB, visited July 2025

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.

Verified guest, visited September 2024

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.

The staff at Adina were super.

JD, United Kingdom, visited July 2022

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.

SS, United States of America, visited July 2022

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