Excellent experience both for the functionality of the car and for Fotini's courtesy and availability (car delivered to and picked up at the hotel). Reasonable prices.

About

Nestled in the laid-back coastal community of Anaxos on Lesvos's northwestern shore, Miraz Rentals offers visitors the freedom to explore this spectacular corner of the island at their own pace. Anaxos itself is graced with one of the longer sandy beaches in the region, backed by a gentle landscape of olive groves and looking out toward the Turkish coastline across the shimmering Aegean. Having a rental vehicle — whether a car, scooter, or bicycle — transforms a stay here from a beach holiday into a genuine adventure through some of Lesvos's most rewarding countryside.

With Miraz Rentals as a base, guests can easily reach the elegant mansions of nearby Petra, the pilgrimage church of Agios Nikolaos perched dramatically on its rock, and the petrified forest of the island's western reaches. The winding hill roads lead through villages where traditional life continues largely undisturbed, and a set of wheels makes the difference between glimpsing a place from afar and actually stopping to sit in a kafeneion and taste the local ouzo. The northwestern coast is also prime territory for birdwatching, particularly during the spring migration season when Lesvos becomes a destination for enthusiasts from across Europe.

For travelers based around Anaxos or Skoutarou who want the flexibility to discover the island beyond their immediate surroundings, Miraz Rentals provides a practical and welcoming solution. The local knowledge that comes with a family-run operation in a small resort village is often as valuable as the vehicle itself — staff can point you toward the quieter coves, the best sunset spots, and the seasonal festivals that rarely make it into the guidebooks.

Before you go

What to expect

Picking up a vehicle from this small, family-run rental office in Anaxos gives you instant access to the northwestern corner of Lesvos — an area of long sandy shores, hilltop villages, and back-roads that most beach-bound visitors never find. The staff know the local area well and often share tips that no map app will offer. Expect a relaxed, unhurried transaction in a genuine resort village rather than a busy city depot.

Best time to visit

Late April through October suits most rentals here; spring (April–May) is especially rewarding for birdwatching and exploring without the summer heat.

How to get there

From Mytilene, follow the main road north via Kalloni and continue toward Petra and Anaxos — the drive takes roughly an hour to an hour and a half on winding but well-surfaced roads.

Everything was great, I highly recommend it. We rented a scooter for a day and were very happy with it.

We rented a car from Miraz Rentals for 2 days during our stay in Molivos. They helped us a lot with bringing the car to the hotel a bit earlier , so that we could make it on time for our snorkeling trip. What we loved the most was the friendliness of the staff - they asked us where we were planning to go and sent us a WhatsApp message with the island’s history and good restaurants to eat based on our plans. The whole process has been very easy and they also accept card payments. Thank you once again for your kindness and information!

Very easy rental process. Fair price, no credit card needed. Free booster seat was an unexpected bonus, as rentals usually charge a lot for it. The car was not new, but drove very well. We received some nice suggestions from the owner about beaches and restaurants. And a paper map of the island - usefull in some parts of the island where there is no phone signal.

I would have given 5 stars for the service, price, and clean car. Unfortunately, for no reason, I was severely bitten in the office by the owners' dog—a French bulldog. Apparently, this was the first incident, the owners were very apologetic and honorably offered me an extra day of free rental. Until then, I would have still given 5 stars because I love dogs and it's hard to blame someone for a situation they didn't have any fault with. Unfortunately, the next day I returned the car, and the office was empty, with this crazy dog ​​tied to the desk unattended. How could such an unstable dog be left in contact with customers after such an incident? Surely a child could approach me to pet it, thinking it was a gentle dog. This dog in the office is utterly irresponsible and thoughtless. And the reason for the one star: I think the owners' daughter lied to me and the resident for three days about sending me an email with a scan of the dog's vaccination certificate. I spent two days going to the doctor in Kalloni. I needed an injection, antibiotics that caused diarrhea, the inability to bathe, and it was stressful for me and my family. When I finally went in with a sore leg, the woman yelled at me that the email was probably in my spam folder and generally complained that I was bothering her with trivial things. She kindly showed me the dog's vaccination record. A scan or photo of the document and sending it by email or text message took two or three minutes at most. I still don't have the email. It's sad that parents work hard from morning to late at night to build a business, while their daughter destroys it with her laziness. So if you see this dog in the office, judge for yourself. I'll spare you the photos.

Rented a car for a reasonable price in June 2025. Cheaper than our competitor, Billy's. We received a Nissan Micra with a broken engine light that came on and was replaced promptly after two days with a Hyundai i20. The owner's son, presumably, was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely rent a car there again.

Owner Response

Thank you for your honest and kind review! We're sorry for the inconveniece with the first car, but we're glad we could quickly resolve the issue and provide you with a smooth experience afterward. It means a lot that you would rent from us again- we truly appreciate your trust!

During our stay in Anaxos, we rented a car from this rental company twice through Rinbow Travel Agency. The cars were delivered on time, spotlessly clean, and in good working order. We highly recommend them.
