We have just returned from a truly memorable stay at Magic Hotel. We have never experienced such a warm and welcoming reception from a hotel before. The whole team is lovely and it feels like a family. They are led by Monica, who was outstanding—we chatted with her a lot, and her passion for the hotel and the island is so clear.||The small, friendly team goes out of their way to ensure that every guest has a relaxing and enjoyable stay. They not only recommended fantastic restaurants but also helped us make reservations, securing great tables for us. The lady at the pool bar (whose name we never got) deserves a special mention as well—she takes such care in her work, and nothing was ever too much trouble. I should also mention that the reviews are correct, there were always sunbeds around the pool!!||During our visit, it was my daughter’s birthday, and the whole team made her feel incredibly special. She had an extra-large chocolate milk at breakfast from Jimmy that morning, and in the evening when we dined in the restaurant, we were greeted with balloons, a banner, and a thoughtful present from the team. We were also given an upgrade to what I would describe as a mini villa (without a kitchen), and it was amazing—so clean, comfortable, and spacious, with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, and a utility room with a washing machine, which was incredibly helpful. The huge balcony with lovely views and a jacuzzi was such a treat for all of us, and something my now 12-year-old will always remember. She was absolutely blown away by the team’s kindness toward her birthday.||The area is also fantastic—very easy access to buses that take you into town and to the beaches. There are local supermarkets and plenty of restaurants nearby if you don’t want to head further afield every night. ||Jimmy and Julian deserve a special mention—they were fantastic throughout our stay, always attentive and ready to help with anything we needed. Monica also went above and beyond for my mum, who had an injured foot—she encouraged her to visit the medical centre, and she was so right to do so, even giving us “evil eyes” to warn of danger!||Magic Hotel is truly exceptional, with a wonderful team led by Monica. We cannot recommend it highly enough, and we are sure we will return...

Read moreWe had a brilliant stay at Magic Hotel Skiathos. From the moment we arrived, all the staff were so attentive, friendly, and nothing was ever too much trouble.
We stayed in a deluxe double room on the top floor with the most amazing sea views. The room was spotless, serviced daily, and included a fridge with water on arrival (perfect for keeping refreshments cool throughout our stay). The spacious balcony had comfortable furniture and even a clothes dryer – a thoughtful touch. An added bonus was the mosquito repellent plug-in provided in the room.
The pool area was a real highlight – peaceful, spotless, with plenty of sun loungers, towels, and umbrellas. Best of all, there was no “sunbed war” – you could always find a lounger at any time of day. The pool bar served great snacks and drinks throughout the day, which we really enjoyed.
The View Restaurant at the hotel is probably the best in Agia Paraskevi. The menu has an excellent choice, the service is first class, and the food was fantastic – highly recommended.
We also hired a quad bike for two days through Aegean Rental. It was delivered and collected directly to the hotel, making it so easy, and we had great fun exploring the island.
A brilliant feature of the hotel is the free-to-use sunbeds and umbrellas available by reception, which you can take across the road to the beach. Such a clever and convenient idea.
If you’re looking for a small, friendly boutique hotel with excellent service, then Magic Hotel is the perfect choice. Having worked in the travel industry for over 30 years and visited many leading hotels of the world, I can honestly say Magic Hotel is now one of my absolute favourites.
Note: There is no lift in the hotel, so it may not be suitable for those with...
