Mithimna Villas Greece

You’ll be seeing double when you vacation in one of the two Villa Mithimna, near the town of Molyvos, on the north coast of the Greek Cycladic island of Lesbos, a gem in the Aegean Sea. These two adjacent, detached villas are identical, set in their own local stone high walled grounds, with well-maintained gardens and lawns, and tall, mature trees for privacy, shade, and seclusion. Each villa has its own private swimming pool and sweeping sea and town views. The backdrop to both is the lavender-hued Lepetymno mountain range, and a vista as far as the islet of Lazaretto, with its mesmerising sunsets, whilst the nearest beach is a short walk away.
The two storeys, stone-built villas, each have two spacious double bedrooms, and can comfortably accommodate up to six guests, ideal for a small family, or friends sharing. The villas come with private parking, complimentary air conditioning and Wi-Fi throughout, and satellite receiver TVs. The interiors are dressed in a traditional style, a comfy holiday beach home in the countryside vibe, and decorated in a colour palette of classic white with soft shades of pale greys and cool blues.
Access your villa by the external staircase, which will take you to the first floor, where you will find a light and airy living space. The seating area has two pale blue sofas, which can be converted into a bed, wooden coffee and side tables, a satellite television that takes cards so that you can watch your favourite channels, a DVD and CD player, and a wood burning fireplace for the cooler months and evenings. The pretty kitchen is fully equipped with all the modern appliances you will need to cater for your holiday, including an oven and hob, microwave and dishwasher, and that must-have espresso coffee maker. There is an indoor dining set in the kitchen, and an alfresco one on the sea-view balcony, where you can feast on local delicacies under a twinkling sky. The ground floor is home to two beautifully appointed double bedrooms. The master bedroom has a large double bed, bedside and dressing tables, whilst the second bedroom has two wrought iron single beds. Each bathroom has a Jacuzzi bath, double hand basins, WC, a hairdryer, and a washing machine.
The grounds and gardens are a delight, with a centrepiece, fenced-in, ladder-entry swimming pool, and a separate shallow children’s pool. Wooden sun loungers with deep pale grey cushions surround each pool, and contrasting parasols provide shade. Manicured green grass lawns are perfect to play on, or laze in the sunshine catching up with this year’s bestseller, A picnic-style wooden bench is a lovely spot for snacking alfresco, and meeting for cocktails as the sun sets over the azure Aegean Sea and the medieval Molyvos castles.Villas Mithimna can found be overlooking the historic town of Molyvos, also known as Mithymna, on the north coast of the Greek island of Lesbos, in the heart of the azure Aegean Sea. The nearest international airport is Mytilini Odysseas Elytis, sixty-five kilometres south of the villa, an hour and a quarter’s drive through the Greek countryside. If you are island hopping arrive at the port of Mytilini, which is sixty-two kilometres away. The villa is within walking distance of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Molyvos, where you will find a medieval castle, Orthodox churches, cobbled streets, traditional tavernas, and a fabulous organised beach.
The nearest beach is just five hundred metres away, a short stroll through the dunes and you are there. The beautiful beach of Efthalou is a few kilometres north of the villa, famous for its stunning sunsets, whilst picturesque Petra Bay, is a short drive south. The capital town of Mytilini is an hour’s drive away, where you can wander around the Archaeological Museum, the Byzantine Museum, the Folk Art Museum, the Museum of Costume and Embroidery, and the Theophilus Art Museum. Climb the famous castle fortifications for some stunning sea views, then walk the Roman aqueduct and admire their technical skills. Mytilini reflects its history in the number of Greek Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches, its many Byzantine monasteries, and mosques still there from the time of Ottoman rule. Make sure you don’t miss the local markets, selling hand-pressed olive oil, hive honey, carved woodwork, and homemade cheeses. After all that you’ve earned yourself a glass of ouzo and a plate of Greek mezes in a street side café, or treat yourself to some freshly caught fish, most notably the local sardines, in a seafront restaurant.
If you are feeling active there are lots of hiking trails, where you can discover the local flora and fauna. Take a tour of over two hundred caves scattered across the island, believed to be originally neolithic places of worship. Marvel at the natural hot springs of Efthalia, Thermes, and Gera. Discover an underwater marine world snorkelling and scuba diving. Sunbathe on one of the many varied beaches that populate the coastline, and partake in water sports, most especially windsurfing. Visit villages as old as time, especially Lafiona, Agiassos, Plomari and Skala Sikimias, and see how the islanders really live. Lose yourself in the unique and natural phenomenon that is the Petrified Forest, created from intense volcanic activity. Then visit the neighbouring museum at Sigri, which is dedicated to researching, promoting, displaying, and preserving it. Go on a wine tour and sample the fruits of the harvest, and most of all make sure you don’t miss the World of Ouzo Museum at Isodoros Avvanitis.
At the end of a busy day sightseeing, sit back and watch the stars appear on the big screen as the stars come out to shine at the open-air cinema specially constructed for the summer. Venture further afield, from the port at Mytilini boards a ferry to the neighbouring islands of Lindos, Samos, Chios, and beyond.We can usually put you in touch with the right people arrange any of the following:
