My 7th visit to Filokalia...I must be part of the furniture by now! As always, an excellent stay at these super-friendly an relaxed apartments. This year, I had the one-bedroom apartmsnt No. 5, right at the top of the complex - and what a treat it was!! It's not the easieat to get to: either walk up the steep steps/ slope on the left, or go up the steps on the right, cut through the walkway by rooms 19 & 20, then go up the final slope to No. 5. But....it is worth it for the view, the peace and the space. I've had great food whilst here...from Bacon Baguettes (English bacon) to burgers Nd omelettes. All totally delicious! And yes...it has been pretty much the end of season, but the service is still the same as you'd get in July / August even though there are only 5 of us left now 😊 It's been my most relaxing break on Skiathos amid the 2nd year of COVID. The whole complex is kept spotlessly clean by Shellina, Manoli and the room girls. New matresses and pillows are in all studios and apartments thos year too....oh boy, I have had the best sleeps on these the last 10 days 🤗 Shellina's amazing hygeine standards in the kitchen and bar are pretty much unbeaten anywhere else on the entire island, so you always feel safe. Hand sanitiser it dotted around the whole complex too. My balcony has been an amazing sun-trap from 11am til 6pm - and it's been the best spot to enjoy my morning coffee. Time and time again, I can not recommend Filokalia highly enough. A family run business, with family at the core of its values Thank you again, Alkis, Demi, Shellina, Manoli and the room girls. 🥰🇬🇷🏖💖…

What a wonderfully friendly location to stay. Fantastic help and kind service from everyone. Apartments are very good and well looked after. Food is very good and bar offers a great variety of drinks. Many holidaymakers have been many times before the atmosphere and location is so good. Close to bus stop 10. Excellent value.

Having not been to Greece for such a long time, we took the plunge and booked a last-minute holiday to Skiathos and stayed at Filokalia in Achladies. Owned and run by Alkis and his brother, this is very much a family affair. The pool bar is managed superbly by Shellina, an English lady who makes the most fabulous food from her extensive menu with very competitive prices. By day there is a beautiful pool to enjoy and many other comfortable sitting areas. The gardens are kept nicely manicured and the friendly room girls ensure that rooms are sparkly clean. By evening the bar area fills with guests returning from their lazy day in or busy day out, background music playing, an extensive drinks and cocktail menu and the occasional Greek dance by Alkis! Food is available until late. The apartments are in the small area of Achladies, in a ‘normal’ season has a number of bars and restaurants. Bus stop 10 is at the bottom of the short lane and the bus will take you as far as Koukounaries one way or Skiathos Town the other way. Very cheap fares and a most scenic coastal road, it’s a great way to get around to the many beaches. Of course, taxis are also available and the staff here will order one for you and even make restaurant reservations for you, many are personally recommended. We will not hesitate to return here, in fact our planned 2 week stay has already been extended by another 10 days! I think we’ve found our very favourite Greek home from home on this beautiful island. …

Spent two weeks in September at these lovely apartments. Really well situated off the main road with just a short walk to the bus stops and the local beach. Very quiet location with a nice pool and clean rooms. The pool bar is run by a lovely lady called Shellina who can't do enough to make your stay enjoyable. The breakfasts and lunches are very reasonably priced and delicious. In the evening the owner Alkis takes over and he too is a very good host and makes you very welcome. Would highly recommend but would perhaps suggest not for anyone with walking difficulties.

I cannot recommend these apartments enough. This is our second visit, and we'll definitely be visiting next year! The apartments are really well looked after. Everyone who works there is passionate about their work, from the owners, cleaners, gardeners, and Shellina; who is an amazing host! Shellina looks after everybody, everyday, around the pool area, preparing breakfasts and snacks. She even remembered from last year, that our son really liked her homemade coleslaw with his burger! The apartments themselves are exceptionally clean and comfortable. The pool area also, and there are plenty sunshades. We love Shellina, and we love these apartments. Achladies is a lovely resort with a lovely sandy beach. I have just booked for my Son, daughter in law, and grandson of 4 years to visit next May 2021. Book NOW I would say!!…

It is always hard to fault the Filokalia but the addition of firm/new matresses has made the place even better. Staff are fantastic and are always very professional and friendly. We have looked and tried elsewhere but cant see any reason to go anywhere else. There is a local water taxi which we more often than not use due to the congestion on the buses. The Filokalia is a great location for both short and long walks. From the Filokalia you can go on a wonderful walk with great views that takes you up to Olive Thea. The beaches of Vasilias is a short walk as is Porto Nostos although many people adore the beach at Achladies itself - which is a very short walk. Only regret this year is that we didnt make more use of the super local tavernas and fantastic bakery. The lunch at Mojo on the beach was one of our best.…

This was our third year in a row staying in Achladies but always at different places. Having now stayed at Filokalia, we wouldn’t think of staying anywhere else. The rooms were spotlessly clean, the pool area is always clean and the grounds are gorgeous. The highest praise though has to go to Shellina who makes everyone so welcome, whether you’re a first time visitor or have stayed there for 10 years in a row. She works so hard to ensure everyone has the perfect holiday and nothing is too much trouble. We will definitely be returning next year for our honeymoon!

We miss this place so much, and have only been back home 2 days! Great apartment; very clean; maintained by staff that are passionate. The grounds are very pretty too, and the pool area very relaxed and friendly . I would like to thank Shellina in particular, who looked after us everyday; that being myself, my partner, and 2 boys aged 14 and 19 years. Shellina makes you feel so at home! We all loved her delicious freshly prepared food from bacon baguettes , homemade pizzas, tuna wraps, omelettes ; you name it, she had it! So many guests return year after year, quite understandably. The pool is lovely, and the atmosphere relaxing . It’s in a peaceful location, and the bus stop is very close to take you to all of the beaches or into town . Achladies beach is fantastic; very sandy, lively tavernas ( but not rowdy) , water sports, including the water taxi into Skiathos town ; very convenient . These apartments suit all ages, there is plenty shade inside and out , with sun umbrellas, and an inside eating area next to the beach bar. The bar is open all day, and doesn’t close until the last person goes to bed !! The only recommendation I would give is to request a lower apartment if anyone struggles with walking. I can’t fault anything whatsoever ; thank you to filokalia, all the team, and especially Shellina. We’ll be back very soon !!…
