Villa Isidoros Ouzo can be found nestled in a small group of environmentally-friendly luxury stone houses, in the charming village of Agios Isidoros, on the southern tip of the beautiful Greek island of Lesbos in the north Aegean Sea. The nearest international airport is Mytilini Odysseas Elytis, a forty-kilometre drive across the island to your holiday home. If you are island hopping you will embark at the port of Mytilini, a one-hour journey to the villa. The village is within walking distance, where you will find supermarkets and local stores for your holiday provisions, and a few cafes, bars, and tavernas, where you can sample the local dishes.
The nearest beach is a short three hundred metres away at Agios Isidoros, considered by some to be one of the best on the island. This beautiful small pebble beach has organised facilities, easy entry to shallow waters, and crystal clear waters it is perfect for snorkelling and swimming. The picturesque port town of Plomari is only two miles down the coast and is most famous for being the hometown of the national drink of Ouzo. You can sample two of the most famous brands of Ouzo at the Barbayanni and Isodoros Arvanitis Museums, visit the Soap Industry and Folklore Museums, and admire the Byzantine icons in the many churches and chapels. Take a walk through the town with its traditional architecture, merchant’s mansions, souvenir stores, and seafront restaurants. Plomari also has an excellent beach, and within the region equally recommended are, Ammoudeli, Tarsanas, Melinda, and Ayia Varvara. All aboard for a day out at sea, with a boat trip from the port. There are lots of activities you can do on the island, including hiking trails, snorkelling and scuba diving, water sports, and horse riding.
Visit villages as old as time, most notably Molyvos, Agiassos, and Skala Sikimias, to see how the islanders really live. The capital town of Mytilini is home to a handful of museums including 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.
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. Lose yourself in the unique and natural phenomenon that is the Petrified Forest, created from intense volcanic activity. Then visit the nearby museum at Sigri, which is dedicated to researching, promoting, displaying, and preserving it. After all that activity go on a wine tour, sample the fruits of the harvest, and take home a bottle or two.
