Magic Hotel

We had 11 nights here and thoroughly enjoyed it. We had a standard room but it was lovely and more than adequate with a sea view and large terrace. Towels changed every day and room cleaned to a high standard every day. Housekeeping team very friendly too. Breakfast is a great choice with hot and cold buffet options and also extra hot options to order if you wish. The View Restaurant is very high quality and a lovely place to dine for Evening Dinner. This is also where Breakfast is served. So lovely to have breakfast with a sea view! The pool is nice and because it was June was quiet every day. Probably gets busier July and August. Pool and beach towels are provided too which is always a bonus. The Pool Bar had limited hours and menus during our stay but was opening longer just as we left. There are lots of steps to all levels of the Hotel and a steep drive too so you need to be aware of this prior to booking. We soon got used to the steps and the views more than make up for it! Our only criticism is cleaning around the pool area could be better both around the pool and bar area. Also the fake grass areas. We mentioned the fake grass issue whilst there but saw no improvement during our stay unfortunately. However, we had two plumbing issues with our room and both were fixed quickly- we were very impressed with that! All in all this is an amazing hotel perfectly located for a stay in Agia Paraskevi. We recommend 100% and hope to be back sometime.

No communication!!! Awful hote!!!!l they refuse to communicate with English speakers. I have sent multiple emails over weeks and no response. I spent 10,000 euro for 8 people and they refuse to respond to simple questions.....they do not care about their customers!!!

An exceptional hotel; the rooms are very nice and have a lovely view, the staff are very friendly and Manager Monica provides helpful advice, during the power cuts the hotel uniquely had its own power and water, breakfast was delicious, and buses run frequently along the coast from just outside the hotel. We plan to return. Not a problem for us, but it is worth noting that access to the higher level rooms is via stairs or a driveway.

We stayed for a week following the storm, only wish we had stayed longer. Superb hotel. The place is spotless, the staff are great - nothing is too much trouble for anyone. The English lady on reception - sorry forgot her name - was so helpful with everything. Breakfast was great, huge choice and fresh every day. We ate in the restaurant in the evening a couple of times and the food again was very nice. Only one very small complaint is that there was limited food at the pool bar during the day, fantastic hotel, we will deff visit again

Stayed at the Magic hotel - comfortable room with en suite, balcony view of the sea, excellent daily room service. Lovely breakfasts with plenty of choice and option for fresh omelettes. Evening meals at The View restaurant were also excellent. Waiters Julian and Jimmy were great. Pool area and bar were quiet and relaxing with a good choice of food and drinks during the day. The hotel excelled during 4 days of Storm Daniel. The hotel generator prevented power cuts that affected much of Skiathos, the restaurant was able to maintain its breakfast and evening meal menus despite considerable damage to the island infrastructure and the whole staff team were superb throughout- nothing was too much trouble. Well done Magic hotel - would highly recommend.

Last year whilst staying at the Princess 5 Star Resort we noticed this hotel over the road and were curious to visit to compare. We soon wised we hadn't! Upon our arrival at the hotel there was no friendly or professional welcome waiting for us in fact the lady at reception was very rude, bossy and unprofessional. The room that my husband and I had booked looked tired and in need of some work. There was no mirror above what seemed to be a dressing table which for a lady who wants to do her hair and make up was useless!!!! I had to stand in the bathroom and use the mirror in there which was very uncomfortable as there was nowhere to sit! The bathroom looked very clinical, not modern at all, more like a hospital. Some of the staff were OK but mostly seemed stressed and unwilling to help. We were surprised that we didn't have tea/coffee facilities in the room and after requesting these they never arrived. In comparison to the Princess Hotel over the road I would choose to book there every time as it is far superior to this hotel. The rooms were spotlessly clean, staff are professional and welcoming, tea/coffee facilities are provided in rooms, dressing table with mirror and comfortable chair, amazing views, private beach and the room rates are less than the Magic hotel which is only a 4 star. The Magic Hotel seems to be over priced for what it is and what it provides, certainly not worth the money. I would not recommend this Hotel and cannot wait to return to the 5 star luxury of the Princess Hotel.

We chose to stay at the Magic Hotel based on all of the fabulous reviews that we had read, we were not disappointed. The hotel is really well located in Agia Paraskevi with the beach a short 10 minute walk away as well as a variety of tavernas and bars where you can take a walk to in the evening if you want to avoid the hustle and bustle of Skaithos Town. It is worth nothing that the access to the hotel is via a steep drive or set of stairs so is something to be considering if you have any mobility challenges. The rooms and all of the communal areas are maintained to a very high standard, which gave a good first impression, the hotel is immaculate and the team obviously work hard to keep the hotel is great shape. We stayed in a Deluxe double room with a sea view, the room was very well equipped and the view was very good. One small point to note in our room was that the dressing table did not have a mirror, there was a large mirror on the opposite wall but no plug, so a bit of an inconvenience when getting ready to go out but we worked around it. The team at the hotel are some of the best we have experienced, service really is with a smile and they take a genuine interest in making sure that you are enjoying your stay. A shout out to Julian and his team in the restaurant who work hard to deliver a personalised service. The pool area is wonderful and relaxing, non of the crazy drama of people reserving sunbeds and not using them. The area is small and tranquil just what you want in order to relax on your holidays. The pool bar offer a good service of ice cold drinks and bar snacks. We absolutely loved our stay and are already planning a return visit next year.

This hotel is perfect and the staff are first class. Room was immaculate. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of choice and additional items cooked on request. Pool area was very tidy and there was always sun beds which came with supplied towels.
