The La Luna is an excellent complex set at the top of a hill with stunning views overlooking Troulos bay. The hill is VERY steep so is definitely unsuitable for anyone with walking difficulties.

This is easily the best self catering accommodation we have stayed in during our many visits to Greece. they are almost hotel standard. There are "acres" of storage space for your clothes. Many times we have practically lived out of suitcases, but not here! The bathroom was very spacious with a separate area with a washbasin and huge mirrors with excellent lighting. The bedroom again, was very spacious and surprise surprise, we even had a kettle! We have always had to boil our water in a saucepan before! Our rooms were cleaned every day apart from Sundays, towels were changed every other day and bed linen twice a week.

The large swimming pool had plenty of sunbeds and a great pool bar where Dimitri and Rula are available to cook breakfasts and snacks throughout the day.

They will serve drinks at the bar until the last customer goes to bed so don't expect anyone to be serving breakfast much before 10am!!

They are a very friendly couple and are always on hand if you have a problem with your accommodation or need any information about the island etc. (Dimitri is also the manager of the complex)

The pool barbeque on Sunday evenings is also excellent. As much food as you can eat and a great night where all the guests can get to know each other. Combined with the excellent music provided at the bar this is one night where hardly anyone goes to bed early.

All in all, an excellent stay. We will definitely return.....and for 2 weeks instead of one!

We have just come back from Troulos staying at the Luna aprtments and can certainly see why it has had some great reviews and why people go back year after year. Unsurprisingly there is already not a great deal of availabliity for next year but also try eclipsedirect as well as first choice as they are actually the same company and split the availability.

We had a ground floor two bedroom apartment which had everything we needed, 1 double bedroom, 1 twin bedroom and a bedroom in the kitchen/dining area - a proper bed not a sofa bed. What I didn't realise was that it had 2 bathrooms which was brilliant. Not full bath, just a midi sort of size, the en suite was more of a shower cubicle size! We always had decent full. power hot water.

There was a large balcony with fantastic views across the countryisde to the side and over Troulos bay to the front. We never heard any noise from the bar as it was set back in the seperate block. In fact the first week we never heard a sound from anywhere at night, sadly it cannot be said about the second week when a family of furniture removers moved in upstairs! The floors are tiled and they always came in after us at night and proceed to scrape the furniture across the floor and bang around like idiots for at least and hour and then start again at 8 in the morning - sometimes earlier. I would say that these apartments are pretty well as soundproof as any normal house - these people were just selfish inconsidorate planks. Any apartment with tiled floors makes a noise, it just takes a bit of considoration!

Moan over!!

The pool is an ok size and the terraces are clean and well equipped with sun beds and sunshades, also plenty of tables and chairs with shade. Again all with terrific views. the bar was well stocked and resonable prices. Dimitries and Rula do all the food and we never had a bad snack at all. There is his famous hand cut chips (well worth the wait - fantastic) salads, of which i have to say we had the best Greek salads there over anywhere else - and we had a few! Other things include breakfasts, pizza, sandwiches etc etc.

You must do the Sunday night BBQ - all you can eat, chops, chicken, fab sausages, greek salad, baked spuds etc etc. The chops were huge and fantastic tasting! Dimitries and Rula and the rest of the staff work hard to make sure the evening is a success and we ended up talking to loads of people and had a great time.

There are steps down to the road and then down a track to a lovely course sand beach. We always stayed at the Luna end of the beach in front of the snack bar there. The beach was much much quieter and spaced out sun loungers and the snack bar was brilliant for lunch in a beautiful garden. Watch the wasps mind, one flew up my partners shorts and stung his inner thigh - very painful!!

La Luna has the most outstanding views you can imagine especially if you book during the full moon its breath taking.

Apartment rooms were very good on a two storey system with an air con upstairs and down stairs built you have to pay for two and making 80 euros a week not to bad be warned no one seems keen to take plastic of any kind or travellers cheques! just had cash it did come as a bit of a surprise.

The staff were fantastic Dimitri is very laid back and friendly everything operates from the bar reception is never manned you will find him at the bar working!

Food very basic just to cover eating by the pool burgers/sandwiches cooked breakies and very reasonable pizza all very tasty though and they finish serving at 9pm.

Nothing other than the bar/cafe on site and the pool nearest shop down the hill about 1/4 of a mile the walk back is hard going the whole apartment complex is on slope it was 95 steep steps to our apartment mind you the bar is half way!!

Cleaners in 12 of the 14 days made beds swept floor emptied the bin!! You know the no toilet paper down the toilet bin! a quick basic clear up.

We enjoyed it so much we are going back again this year!!! Rula and Dimitris and young Tony were brill. Good music in fact we never stay around pools but that holiday that is all that we did. Love it love it! hope to see Rula and Dimitris wedding pics this time. They do make your holiday, great hosts and work so hard. How Dem remembers all ya drinks I will never know. Felt really safe for the kids too! My son arrived with toothache and Dim was really helpful in getting him sorted.

Not the island for sight seeing people it is just for chilling, having nice food and drinks. Met loads of nice people.

Ps don't tell everyone cause they will all want to go!!!!

We had a two bedroom apartment which was spacious and very clean with two bathrooms. Air con was available for 80 euros per week if required. The apartment had a large balcony with views overlooking the bay.

The swimming pool was excellent, plenty of sunbeds and very quiet and relaxing. Rula and Dimitris were very friendly and helpful and the pool BBQ is not to be missed. Also Rula makes excellent salads for a snack by the pool.

There are quite a few steps up to the apartments but we did'nt find it a problem. We would definitely go back here as we had an excellent holiday.

First time staying in skiathos, we previoulsy flew in on route to Skopeleos and wanted to come back for a better look!

The accommodation is every bit as good as everyone says. It was more like a hotel room than a studio. We had a kettle, toaster, reading lights, bath, shower curtain, bath mat.(if you are a frequent greek visitor you will be saying, thats not greek!!!) tidied every day, it was very nice.

I believe we may have been in a refurbished block, not sure, but I didn't hear anyone complaining. It is a quiet time to go so not much happening in the bar but staff all still very friendly and relaxed.

The walk up to the studios is steep, no 2 ways about it, this is on a hill, but by the end of the week I was really used to it and have to say my legs were in a better condition when we left!

The La Luna Aparthotel,Troulos Bay,Skiathos. Being my sixth return visit to the La Luna I will try to be as unbiased as possible.

My wife and I have been on our own and with other couples and family. We have made good friends not only with the staff, in particular, Dimitris but other return guests who, like ouselves, keep going back to our Greek home as we see it.

The place has an aura about it that makes it stand out from other locations on the island. Always clean. Simplistic beauty, a freshness that never dulls. No fighting for facilities and every opportunity to either join in with socialising at the pool or doing your own thing.

A briiliant base to explore the island.

Views that are stunning from all rooms, the bar, the pool. Absolutely brilliant.

La Luna Hotel is situated with most magnificent views, and because of this it has a short steep climb to the hotel
the whole place is beautifully kept with flowers everywhere and well tended, Dimitri the manager makes the best home made chips with your lunch and shouts you from youre lounger when its ready. I love it.

When we come from the beach at 5 ish theres always a welcome and a cold lager and "why not" from Dimitri he certainly makes our holiday he plays fantastic music to relax by the pool, we check he's still there before we book.

p.s. we're going again next week.

hi we travelled to la luna this year and we had a great holiday the accommodation for greece was excellent it was clean and very nice , the views from ALL of the rooms i am led to believe are fantastic they overlook troulos bay , in the brochure it states that there is a steep climb to the hotel and this is true however not so bad that it would put me off going again , the apartments were a little out of town but the bus service which you can get only a few meters from the accommodation was very efficient and only cost 1.20 euros each to travel to the ain resort skiathos town. the entertainment was very low key but the pool bar stayed open till the last person left which i am told was 0630 hours the week i was there. demitris the chap that runs the hotel is very helpful and happy to answer any questions and be of help if he can definatley reccommended ,

La Luna is as the brochure states. The appartments and grounds including swimming pool were attended to every day and kept tidy and clean. BBQ night was very good and food excellent, although stated breakfast can be bought at the food bar this was never obtainable due to the very late nights the staff had serving customers, sometimes until 06.30 am. However there is a notice to say breaksfast available when staff get up. Service was not usually available until around 11-12 o clock. Hotel location fantastic, sea views stunning and plenty of transport to get from a to b. Located on very steep hill be prepared to become out of breath at some point. Hotel staff very friendly and entertaining. Would certainly visit again.
