When I was 17 (which was not recently unfortunately), I went on a Skyros holiday. Alone and full of romantic notions of writing a best seller after attending a two week course...ahem...excuse the naivety, compulsory for a 17 year old...I have never, ever regretted that decision. It shaped the course of my life irrevocably and I think of it often.... More

Skyros 2011. I took the plunge and went to Skyros last year on my own. Didnt know what/who to expect. Amazing experience. Beautiful island. But most of all Skyros runs on the people. Andrew from Glasgow.what can I say? Excellent chef, master of wonderful food inventions full of health and goodness. Lovely lovely person who works very hard at making... More

I have been to this magic place 2 times and have booked to go again this summer. Its not just sun, beach, sea, lovely food, and activities, its intellegence for body, mind and soul. Its imagination, its narnia, its like Mary Poppins elixir that tastes just like what you needed and didnt know you needed. For adults. There might seem... More

This is an oasis in time and space, a chance to participate in different kinds of activities, or none, a place to meet new people who become friends for longer than the holiday, and an opportunity do have "me" time in abundance. The leadership ensures that you are cared for, it is a very "safe" place, I went as a... More

Not your usual hippy twaddle, but a really relaxing, supportive and joyful holiday, designed to challenge just a little and build lasting friendships. I loved Logan Murray's workshop the most, and i can't remember a time when I laughed more or so often. Great food, too! More

Atsitsa is a wonderful option for those who like the serenity of this place instead of the town-atmosphere of Skyros town. More

Somewhere between an amazing holiday and a voyage of self-discovery, Atsitsa will be the best 2 weeks away ever. The days are full, with people who will soon be your friends, with the courses, sun and laughter. We've been there 4 times with our kids (8 years to 14 years) and are drawn back time again again.

Atsitsa Bay centre is located in unspoilt and tranquil bay with charming gardens. Accommodation is very basic shared bamboo huts with a walk to communal camping style shower/loo blocks. House rooms are rather shabby and dated. Staff, work scholars and course teachers were all without exception kind helpful and smiley. They worked hard to build a community feel; days were... More

It is impossible to accurately describe the experience of Atsitsa. I got three of my friends to come along and they all thanked me profusely for getting them to go there. I suspect that there are people out there who would not respond well to this place but they would be people who are dismissive of anything that sniffs of... More

This holiday wildly exceeded my expectations. First of all, I have to say that I'm not really the sort to sign up for a holistic holiday experience, I‘m not even sure if I knew what one was! But friends who had been there in previous years insisted we try Skyros. They were annoyingly lacking in detail, but were universally glowing... More
