About
Nestled in the quiet countryside near the village of Chliara in eastern Lesvos, Lithos Villas takes its name from the Greek word for stone, a fitting tribute to the traditional Aegean architecture that defines these accommodations. Built in harmony with the island's vernacular style, the property offers guests a sense of rootedness in the landscape — thick stone walls that keep rooms cool in summer, terracotta roof tiles weathered to a warm ochre, and surroundings that feel untouched by the bustle of more heavily touristed corners of Greece.
Staying at Lithos Villas places visitors in one of the more serene and lesser-explored parts of Lesvos, where the rhythms of rural island life remain largely intact. The eastern reaches of the island are known for their olive groves, wildflower meadows, and a gentler coastline, and this location serves as an ideal base for those wishing to explore both the natural and cultural riches of the region — from the thermal baths at Eftalou to the Byzantine-era churches scattered across nearby hillside villages.
For travellers seeking an authentic escape rather than a resort experience, Lithos Villas offers the kind of unhurried hospitality that Lesvos does particularly well. The privacy and independence of villa-style accommodation means guests can set their own pace, whether that involves day trips to Molyvos or Petra, long walks through the surrounding landscape, or simply sitting on a terrace watching the light shift over the Aegean. It is the sort of place that stays with you long after you leave the island.
Before you go
What to expect
The stone-built villas sit in genuine Lesvos countryside near Chliara, surrounded by olive groves and a landscape that feels largely undisturbed. Thick walls keep the rooms naturally cool, and the terrace quickly becomes the focal point of the day — watching the light shift with no resort noise in earshot. It works best as a base for exploring the north of the island, with Molyvos, Petra, and the thermal baths at Eftalou all within reach.
Best time to visit
Late spring and early autumn offer the best combination of warm weather and quiet roads; July and August are hot but the stone construction keeps the interiors comfortable.
How to get there
Lithos Villas is around 54 km from Mytilene as the crow flies — allow at least an hour to an hour and a half by car along the island's winding roads. Hiring a car in Mytilene is the practical choice, as public transport to this area is limited.

I visited Lithos Villas with my family for two nights. From the moment we arrived, the service and kindness of the owner was amazing. The room was spotlessly clean, very beautiful and well-kept, carefully made with love. It had everything for a family of four like us. There were bowls of water and food everywhere for the kittens that roamed the yard. I highly recommend you visit this accommodation. We loved it from the first moment. Congratulations on your excellent hospitality. We will definitely visit it again.

Great experience, beautiful, peaceful and clean place. Stayed for three nights (booked directly through their website). The Lithos Team were super responsive and helpful. Bonus was neighbourly cats that we had the privilege of observing and feeding.

Clean and comfortable space. Free bike for transportation. Polite owner and cleaning staff with prompt service for anything we needed. They provide you with shampoo samples and some things in the fridge, soft drinks, etc. Comfortable kitchen with all the necessary household utensils. Comfortable parking. Quiet place suitable for relaxation. Good location. I highly recommend it. The stay was last year.

We stayed at Lithos Villas end June 2023 with my daughters. It is a very lovely place; nicely located, very comfortable, cosy and the hosts family Vloutis, Despina and Christina are simply amazing. We had enjoyed also the bikes they had for the guests. I would re-visit definitely if I come to Eresos again.
