When we came to Lesbos for a week in September, we originally intended to divide our time between Votsala and another hotel in the north. But we loved Votsala so much, that we ended up staying there for the whole period. We knew (because their web-site makes it very clear) that we weren’t going to have TV in the rooms,... More

So disappointed to read such a harsh and totally unwarranted review below. Votsala was a total dream- beach front with a big yard, pomegranate trees, paddle boats, a diving board into the sea, lounge chairs aplenty and an extremely kind and helpful staff. Yannis' guided walks are fantastic!! As are the breakfasts and dinners... always going back for a second... More

This wonderful hotel is all that its website describes. Do read it carefully. If you are looking for a sterile hotel, without warmth and character that could be in any country regardless of location, Votsala is not for you. However, if you want to get close to and appreciate real Greek life, among warm hearted people who genuinely care about... More

We were shocked and disappointed that this property consisted of the most basic communist era concrete buildings with old fashioned run-down facilities in the rooms (including linoleum floors). There was no hint of comfort or luxury - the food and bar were basic and overall the experience had all the charm of a stay in a prisoner of war camp.... More

Dear guests from Prague, thank you very much for taking some time to write your opinion about our hotel. Reading your comments I understand that the main reason for making you feel like prisoners for a night in our hotel was the look of the buildings and not their function which aims at giving guests the freedom and independence of...

This hotel will weave a magic spell about you, and you will return again and again, if you can. Imagine staying in a large country house where your hosts welcome you and give you the freedom of their house and garden, with its palms, olive and citrus trees, vines and the deep blue Aegean Sea there, at the end of...

A friend here in Norway told us about this hotel, and how great it was. We immediately got curious, and decided to book a room for a week. Fortunately it really lived up to all our expectations! We had a great stay, and will surely go back there. Obviously, if your'e looking for a luxury hotel with fancy swimming pools... More

We stayed over the Easter period as I couldn't believe Iannis' comment that we wouldn't have to worry as we would be spending Easter with the Iannis family. Surely this was a private occasion. But no - that was exactly what we did. From the moment we arrived everything was organised, notes left on the main door so that you... More

We arrived very early (7:00 am) by rented car after overnight ferry from Athens, travel weary and wondering what to do till our room might be ready. We drove down a long driveway past pomegranates, walked around a corner into a glasswalled hall overlooking the sea, and were promptly offered a sumptuous breakfast along with other early risers, which we...

If you're looking for an amazing experience, this is the outfit for you! Trips, meals, ambiance, everything was picture perfect! I cannot wait to come back and I look forward to being like some of the other guests we met who have been coming to Votsala for 20+ years! More
