We had a wonderful experience here. A really really nice hotel with fantastic view and great location. Amazing service from the nice family who owns it
Highly recommended. Great hosts, amazing view and rooms. Just too many stairs to climb. Not suitable for the elderly or families with baby with strollers etc.
About
Nestled in the sun-drenched surroundings of Plomari, one of Lesvos's most beloved coastal towns, Olive Green Apartments offers a comfortable and characterful base for exploring the southern reaches of the island. True to its name, the property sits within the verdant olive-grove landscape that defines this part of Lesvos, where centuries-old trees stretch across the hillsides and the air carries the mingled scents of sea and wild herbs. Plomari itself is famous as the home of Ouzo Barbayiannis, one of Greece's most celebrated ouzo distilleries, and staying here puts guests at the heart of a town with genuine local spirit, lively waterfront tavernas, and a relaxed rhythm far removed from the busier resorts of the island.
Olive Green Apartments provides self-catering accommodation suited to travellers who prefer independence and a home-away-from-home atmosphere. Guests can settle in at their own pace, pick up fresh produce from local markets, and spend evenings on their own terrace as the warm Aegean light fades over the hills. The southern coastline around Plomari rewards exploration, with pebbly coves, crystalline waters, and the picturesque fishing hamlet of Agios Isidoros just a short drive away. Whether you are drawn to Lesvos for its birdwatching, its beaches, its exceptional local cuisine, or simply the unhurried pleasure of Greek island life, Olive Green Apartments offers a peaceful and well-located retreat from which to experience it all.
Before you go
What to expect
The apartments sit within a working olive-grove landscape on the edge of Plomari, so mornings begin with sun-warmed earth and the quiet sounds of a real town waking up. It suits independent travellers well — you can walk to the harbour for fresh fish, stop at the Barbayiannis distillery, or drive a few minutes to the pebbly coves around Agios Isidoros. Evenings on the terrace as the golden light softens over the hills are one of the quiet pleasures here.
Best time to visit
Late May through September is ideal; July and August are the hottest and liveliest months in Plomari.
How to get there
Plomari is roughly a 40-minute drive from Mytilene along the south coast road — a scenic route that is well-signposted from the main island highway.

Unfortunately, we couldn’t stay at the hotel as our reservation was cancelled, but they kindly arranged another accommodation for us and even offered a complimentary breakfast to make up for it. The property and the view are stunning, the breakfast was outstanding, and a special thanks goes to Eirini for her warm hospitality and kindness🩵

We have had the pleasure of staying for a week at this incredibly lovely hotel / apartment. The place is run by the sweetest family who are committed, sweet and warm-hearted people. Our expectations were met, and more. The apartment was nice, clean and with a fabulous view of the most beautiful sea. And access to the beach, just down the stairs. The private balcony with its own jacuzzi provided a setting for peace and relaxation. Breakfast is also an exquisite pleasure that you should not cheat yourself of. Here was everything you needed to have a relaxing holiday with an authentic Greek feeling without the feeling of being at a resort with many tourists. Recommended as a wonderful get away for adults without children. We have fallen in love with this place and with Plomari.

We had a fantastic stay at the Olive Green Apartments in Plomari! The room was spacious, very clean, and featured a large terrace that was absolutely perfect—especially since we were traveling with a baby. The terrace gave us plenty of space to relax while our little one could safely enjoy the fresh air in the shadow. The location is also ideal—just a short 5-minute walk to the charming inner city, where you can find great food and a lovely local atmosphere. The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming and we highly recommend this place for families or anyone looking for a peaceful, comfortable stay in Plomari!

This place has a lot going for it. Firstly, it is next to the beach. You can see the water from your balcony, or hot tub, depending on your preference. It's a short walk to the town centre of Plomari. There is a well equipped kitchenette and a decent sized main bedroom. The other two beds are in the living room so the rest of your visitors will have to make do. The staff were amazing. I cannot recommend this place enough.

We were here for breakfast and it was soo good💙First of all it was huge and very delicious🍳🥞☕️The terrace view where we sat was amazing. The owners were very kind and helpfull. They also make their own organic extra virgin olive oil named as Eirini Plomariou which you can buy there to take home. Highly recommended🤗I think staying here would also be a nice experience.

A hotel built on a hillside in a beautiful part of Plomari. Before an endless sea view and a comfortable room, you are greeted by Maria's hospitality and guidance. We thank her very much. Even just for the beach and this hotel, we would come back to Plomari again.

Two wonderful weeks in an elegant appartment with great seaview. Nice hosts and very tasty breakfast. Close to small beach, two good tavernas and city centre, in authentic Plomari! It’s like paradise on earth! 💗
