About
Stavrelis is a supermarket located in Polichnitos, one of the larger inland villages of Lesvos, situated in the southern part of the island near the famous thermal baths and salt lake. For visitors exploring this quieter, more local side of Lesvos away from the coastal tourist hubs, a well-stocked supermarket like Stavrelis is an essential stop for picking up provisions, whether you are self-catering, heading to the beach, or simply restocking on the road.
The supermarket serves both the local community and the growing number of travelers who venture inland to experience authentic village life, the olive groves, and the natural landscapes of southern Lesvos. Shoppers can expect to find fresh produce, local pantry staples, and everyday necessities that make it easy to extend your stay and explore the area at your own pace without needing to travel back to larger towns.
Before you go
What to expect
A compact, well-stocked neighborhood supermarket at the center of Polichnitos village life. You'll find fresh local produce alongside pantry staples, and staff are used to helping travelers hunting down olive oil, local cheeses, or picnic supplies for nearby beaches. It's unpretentious and efficient — the kind of stop that lets you extend a day trip into a proper exploration of the south.
Best time to visit
Open year-round; most useful during the main travel season from May through October when you're out on the road and need to restock between the thermal baths and the coast.
How to get there
Polichnitos is roughly a 45-minute drive from Mytilene heading south through Kalloni. Stavrelis sits within the village center, easy to spot as you come through on the main road.
