Visit Skalani

Aquila Atlantis Hotel
Stayed there in June 2025. Staff were fantastic. Hotel really good. Only thing I would have slightly criticised was the lack of water heating in the swimming pools. Still able to enjoy a swim, though. Otherwise, I couldn’t fault it at all.

Village Heights Resort
This was a lovely place to visit but we felt it could be so much more with a little investment. The two pools were rather crowded and the hotel should make one adult only which would enhance the experience. You must have a car to get around as it’s a little out of the way. The accommodation is good ...
