Our island, Our future
In an age of greater awareness of the negative impact pollution has on our planet, tourism is one of the main culprits: transportation, over-development and depletion of natural resources help to make sure it is not an environmentally-friendly industry. Skopelos relies on tourism and is faced with these issues -- while attempting to maintain its own cultural heritage and a clean living environment. Madro Travel has a policy of raising the awareness of holiday makers to things they can do here on Skopelos which can make a ‘real’, and positive, difference to the destination and the people living here. As an agency, we wish to actively encourage discussion on and participation in sustainable activities on Skopelos. Madro Travel aims to promote "sustainable tourism." (nature and wildlife activities), ecotourism (promoting yet protecting natural areas from mass-tourism and development), and agrotourism (educational holidays in agriculture and culture to sustain rural population). In these ways, tour operators, local businesses and visitors alike can genuinely appreciate and respect the culture and natural landscape of our island. A holiday spent exploring the countryside and villages, learning about the production of local cuisine and crafts can be a refreshing and rewarding break from city life. The informed traveller can also be directly contributing to the sustainable tourism effort by supporting the communities working to preserve their local traditions. Remember, if we all work together, our message will reach more people, change more minds, and touch more hearts.

11 kilometres up the coastline from the port town of Patitiri is one of the most, (if not the most), scenic fishing village in the Sporades: Steni Vala. Its little waterfront has some of the very best fish tavernas as well as a couple of cafes. Here you can relax and enjoy watching the comings and goings of yachts and fishing boats, with the backdrop of Peristera island behind.

Within walking distance of the harbour, and just 300 metres from the shingle beach of Glyfa, are located the four houses which comprise Agnandema Villas.

From their spacious terraces, each house has some of the very best views you can imagine. You will probably not be able to tear yourself away and will want to while away the hours and days gazing out to sea, and to Peristera.

The houses themselves are all built in the same style, on one level, incorporating stonework into the exterior walls, and with really spacious terraces with shade and sun, in front of each house.

All houses have the same layout as follows:  a roomy open plan living-dining room with TV, kitchen area, equipped with electric oven and hob and fridge-freezer; two bedrooms, one with double bed and the other with two twins, and a bathroom with shower and WC.

The style of the interiors is rustic, with cool tiled floors throughout and exposed wooden beamed ceilings.

All the houses have:-

* Kitchen, fully equipped with fridge-freezer,electric oven with hob

* Terrace with sea-views, sunbeds, sun umbrellas/shade, dining table

* satellite TV

Car hire is not essential but recommended for ease of access to the other beaches and villages of the island.

Please contact us for availability, stating the name of the accommodation.
