Princess Resort, Santikos Collection

It’s a really nice resort the amenities are immaculate. They have a lot of wellness classes, such as yoga, Pilates. The gyms was amazing and the instructors were very attentive. The food was good. The pool and service overall are lovely me and my family had fun. Would definitely recommend.

I had booked 5 nights in September 2025 at the Princess Hotel but had to leave after the first night, shocked at the state of the rooms. The room I was given was extremely unhygienic. As someone with a mold allergy, I could feel the mold the moment I walked in. The bathroom in particular had a strong mould stench that gave me a severe headache and brain fog for the entire next day. When I raised this with staff, they came to inspect the room. Although they admitted they could smell something, they insisted there was “no mold.” Although I could not visibly see any mould, I could feel its effects strongly, so I believe it may have been painted over. They then offered to move me to another room, but that room had been heavily cleaned to mask the odor, and the chemical smell was so overpowering I couldn’t stay there either. Meanwhile the people I was travelling with had a Signature Room on the top floor, which was newly renovated and completely fine. I requested one of these rooms, but they were fully booked. Despite the health risks associated with mould exposure, the hotel offered no compensation. They said that if I provided medical proof of my allergy to their reservations team they “might” consider doing something, but gave no guarantee. I sent a letter from my General Practitioner doctor but I received no reply. I lost thousands of dollars. Most places in the world have hotel health standards, The Princess Hotel non renovated rooms are a health hazard. In the end, I had to find and pay for another hotel. It was so stressful and ruined my holiday. I ended up finding a little hotel exactly opposite and the staff were so kind and understanding. They mentioned that they have heard of other guests complaining about mold. Given how unsafe and unhygienic the standard rooms are, I would not recommend staying at this hotel unless you book a Signature Room. The older rooms should be completely renovated, as they smell badly, feel damp, and are not fit for guests. It was terrible that they did not offer me any compensation for an illegal room in most countries.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely hotel, our room was clean and the location was perfect for accessing the town and local restaurants. The pool and beach area were great, and we easily found sun beds even in September. The food was very good, especially the breakfast with its wide selection. The staff were all friendly and helpful, with a special mention to Christa at the pool bar for her constant smile and willingness to chat. The bed was a bit firm for my liking, and the room could have used a couple more electricity sockets, but these were minor issues and we've already booked our return for next year.

This hotel offers everything you could ever want out of a holiday ! Firstly The location is amazing !! The cast of mamma Mia stayed here whilst filming so that should tell you everything! The bus route starts at zero (which is the main Skiathos town) and runs all the way up to 24 which is the end of the island, the buses are superb and run every 15 minutes. The princess is situated at bus stop 16 and has numerous superb Tavernas and bars if you go b&b at the Princess and don’t fancy going into town. The hotel itself is warm, welcoming, clean and has the most fabulous Buffett breakfast. The pool area is spot on with mattress type sunbeds!!! The pool is just 50 steps away from the most beautiful beach which again offers the same sunbeds free of charge to hotel residents along with a beautiful bar and restaurant. The rooms are spacious and modern. All in all you will not be disappointed!!

Another lovely two week stay at The Skiathos Princess. As ever the location, but more importantly, the staff make this place so special. The reception staff give a cheery greeting and an efficient checkin. At breakfast we were greeted warmly by Katie, and of particular note Elpida was always charming, efficient and attentive both at breakfast and later at the Ammos beach restaurant for lunch ; her beautiful smile and presence was a daily joy. She lit up each day for us and she is a real asset to the hotel. Thank you. We are already looking forward to our return next year! Tim & Sue

Spent a week there in September. Difficult to fault. Friendly staff, comfortable rooms, good breakfast, good pool with enough sun loungers, set on a lovely beach that gets sun to the end of the day, food in restaurant good but limited choice, well located for other restaurants and on bus route in to Skiathos town. Would definitely recommend.
