Mont D' Olives - Villa
Visitors say
We stayed here from May 2nd to 9th, and it was truly amazing. We had such a wonderful time. The villa has everything you need. We lacked nothing and fell in love with Lesbos.
These villas are stunningly beautiful. They offer a serene environment to relax and a short hop to Molyvos to enjoy everything it has to offer
About
Nestled among the ancient olive groves of northern Lesvos, Mont D' Olives Villa sits near the idyllic coastal hamlet of Efthalou, a stretch of coastline long celebrated for its therapeutic hot springs and serene Aegean vistas. The surrounding landscape is quintessentially Lesbian — gnarled, centuries-old olive trees draping the hillsides in silver-green, with the shimmering waters of the Gulf of Kalloni visible in the distance. This corner of the island has drawn visitors seeking rest and renewal for generations, and the villa continues that quiet tradition of unhurried hospitality.
Mont D' Olives offers guests a private, villa-style retreat that captures the authentic character of rural Lesvos without sacrificing comfort. Staying here means waking to birdsong and the rustling of olive branches, with easy access to Efthalou's famous thermal baths just along the coast — natural hot springs that bubble up along the shoreline and have been valued for their restorative properties since antiquity. The surrounding countryside invites leisurely walks through olive groves and along coastal paths, while the village itself offers a glimpse into the slower rhythms of traditional island life.
For travellers who want to experience Lesvos beyond the busier resort areas, Mont D' Olives provides an ideal base. The villa's position near Efthalou places guests within comfortable reach of Molyvos, one of the most picturesque medieval towns on the island, with its Byzantine castle, cobbled lanes, and waterfront tavernas. Whether you come to soak in the thermal springs, explore the wild north of the island, or simply sit beneath the olives with a glass of local ouzo, this villa offers the kind of peaceful immersion that stays with you long after you leave.
Before you go
What to expect
You settle into a quiet rhythm here — morning light filtering through ancient olive canopies, the faint mineral warmth of Efthalou's thermal springs a short walk along the shore. Most guests divide their days between soaking in the natural hot springs and exploring Molyvos, the medieval hilltop town just a few minutes' drive away. It's a base for genuine rest and slow exploration, not a resort experience.
Best time to visit
Late spring through early autumn is ideal; the thermal springs can be visited year-round, but July and August bring peak heat and more visitors to nearby Molyvos.
How to get there
From Mytilene, follow the coastal road north toward Molyvos — the drive takes roughly an hour to an hour and a half. Efthalou sits just beyond Molyvos along the northern shoreline.

We went as a family of 18 people to Molivos in the island of Lesvos from Canada. Our trip getting there was admittedly long but so worthwhile. We were received in the airport by an organized transfer and were driven to Molivos. The village is mesmerizing and the owner and staff of Mont d’Olives were exceptionally friendly, accommodating, and professional. The accommodation was excellent, clean, modern, efficient, private and the view and setting of the villas were magnificent. The villas are situated on a hill surrounded by pastures with the view of the ocean. This place was top notch one of the nicest holidays we have had.

Everything was beautiful: the villa, the view, the surroundings. The owner was friendly and the accommodation was incredibly clean; a cleaning lady came every day. It's a truly beautiful and peaceful island. The people are incredibly friendly, with charming towns and beautiful, quiet beaches. We had a wonderful time.

We had an incredible time during our stay! The experience was truly fantastic and exceeded all our expectations. Everything was exactly as shown in the photos, perhaps even better. The amenities were outstanding, and everything was meticulously maintained and spotlessly clean. The staff was always friendly and helpful, which gave us great peace of mind knowing we could always turn to you for tips and advice. Your hospitality was exceptional and made our stay extra special. We wholeheartedly recommend anyone looking for an unforgettable and worry-free vacation to stay with you. Thank you for the amazing experience; we will definitely be back!
