Pension Avocado, Skiathos

Pension Avocado is a small guesthouse in Xanemou, Skiathos, Greece, a quiet pocket of the island that suits travelers who want a calm base without being far from the town. The property sits at Xanemou in the Sporades, making it a practical choice for beach days and evenings in Skiathos Town. Check-in runs from 3:00 PM to midnight, and check-out is at 11:00 AM, so it works well for short breaks and relaxed itineraries.

A safe-deposit box at the front desk adds peace of mind, and the hotel is wheelchair accessible.

From here, it’s about 2 km to Papadiamantis House and roughly 2 km to Vassilias Beach, two popular anchors for first-timers.
