Glamping at Skiaxtro Eco Farm 2

Delightful and memorable olive oil tasting experience. Alexandra and Christian were charming hosts. We learned all about the growing, harvesting and processing involved to create the oil. We tasted two oils, one of which was Skiaxtro’s own, and enjoyed a delicious lunch over lots of interesting conversation. Cornelius the cat was highly entertaining!

We had the most wonderful day with Alexandra and Christian! They were the absolute best hosts. We’ve been staying at the Costa Navarino resort and were feeling deprived of anything authentic from the area so booked this experience. It was sooo much better than I expected! It’s a lovely little farm and the information on Greek olive oil was excellent. But nothing prepared is for the gorgeous lunch spread that Alexandra prepared - it was absolutely delicious! We had the best morning and would recommend to anyone. We also brought our young boys who really weren’t interested in the olive oil but were entertained by the farm and Alexandra and Christian’s very kind gestures, including giving them special honey and bracelets. And to top it off we went hope with lovely gift baskets of local olives and olive oil. We all had a wonderful time!

The place is wonderful. It is so nice sitting under the olivetrees and working with a great variety of materials, ideas, colours… I was there with my daughter (4 years). Alexandra was so great!! She gave ideas but also helped us perfectly to create in our own. She also offered fine snacks and drinks. It was a pleasure to be with her and I can recommend it very much. The arrangement was very flexibel in time and open for our needs.

We extended our stay at Skiaxtro because we had such a wonderful time here! Our host Alexandra was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. The tent was luxurious with a fan and electricity, the bathroom was very clean and for the breakfast we were given eggs from the chickens here and vegetables from the garden. In one of her workshops Alexandra taught us how to make beautifully smelling soap and ointments from all natural ingredients. We also attended the workshop for Mediterranean food, where we picked vegetables from the garden and were taught how to cook delicious Greek meals. Skiaxtro is a peaceful place to relax and enjoy life ☺️ If you want to go swimming you can find beautiful beaches just 10-20min away and the little village has restaurants, a supermarket and bakeries. We highly recommend this place and will come back any time we are in Greece! Thank you Alexandra and Christos for a wonderful stay

I have never been in a retreat center that is so clean. (UK, France, Greece) Not, just the crisp linnen, not just the pots and pans, not just the toilets... Everything is so clean and neat!!! The farm is sitting on a ideallic place, surrounded by both majestic mountains and golden sand beaches. No wonder why, large groups of friends find the spot so handy!!! But this is not their strongest point! The wonderful hosts Alexandra & Christos are always there for you! Kind, patient, open, empathetic, just lovely! The garden, facilities and surroundings have received a lot of care and attention over the years so they transformed the place into a Magical Garden! (every tree has its own name) But wait, that is not all! Wait till you try the breakfast!!!! Vegan bruschetts, French toasts, the sourdough bread, the local olive oil&olives, the freshly picked apricots! Oh, noo, I forgot mine.. Alexandra gave me some on the way back, she said, "Take it for the road". Oh, well, I guess I need to go back! Thank you, All for the wonderful time!
