We've stayed here 3 times now and though it's 3 stars are well worn we are happy as it suits our beach bum holiday style. Big rooms with comfy beds and an accomodating staff.Good breakfasts, bang on the no 23 bus stop and within easy walking distance of lots of beaches including naturist ones. The views from the upper floor balconies is great and there are fabulous walks you can make from the hotel.

After we book our holidays I was worried with the reviews
upon arrival I find out that the Caravos hotel is more than OK
great location nice clean (simple )rooms helpful stuff relaxing atmosphere great food and drinks overall had a great relaxing holidays with the family hope to be back in the future

After reading previous reviews I was not expecting this hotel to be as good as it was .
In particular Dionysus at Reception was most helpful in sorting out small problems.
On the Restaurant side the Maitre D - Vassilos , was very cheerful in catering for our eating needs across the conveniently located (side by side) eating style venues : Italian, Greek Chinese or Indian food for the evening meals

Breakfast was a very well stocked buffet with eggs scrambled or hard boiled, choice of sausages, bacon, beans and sliced or feta cheese, ham, cereals, fruit (peaches and fresh melon prepared) thick cream and of course fresh rolls, jams , honey and tea or coffee.

Trips to nearby Beaches Koukanaries was great and Mandraki and Aghia Eleni were also well worth the slightly longer walks. Convenient and reliable buses to Skiathos town for shopping, sightseeing etc.

We really want to return next year !

We stayed in Caravos hotel for 4 nights in July. I must say I was very disappointed with this hotel. The rooms were dirty, the 30 year old A/C sounded like a train, the windows wouldn't lock and the shower had no water pressure, while other times it didn’t have hot water. Once complaining to the staff the answer was "oh yeah... this sometimes happens on the 2nd floor!"
The only good thing about the hotel was its location. Despite being far from the city, it was walking distance to Koukounaries beach; I believe the best beach in Skiathos.
No matter what, NEVER stay in this hotel.
