We were two families travelling with teenage children. I cannot emphasise enough how helpful and friendly the staff were during our stay. Breakfast was included and was an excellent choice of bread, ham, cheese, yoghurts, honey, fruit, eggs etc. Fantastic variety of meals for lunchtime and evening and a super Greek night, that saw me dancing on the bar after some encouragement and I loved it! (I’m in my 50’s) you are quite remote so will need a car, the local town is lovely and had some good beach tavernas for evening meals. The beach by the hotel is not good / we went once for a few hours but gave up - sea isn’t clear because it’s in a bay and the sand isn’t good. However, the individual pools at the hotel make up for it. One pool between about 8 apartments, so often we had the pool to ourselves. It was heaven. They’ll bring food and drink to your sun bed too. One thing I will say I’d be careful what you’re booking - we thought we were having one of the apartments on a level with the pool, so were totally gutted when we were shown to a basement apartment. Not what we had booked. There was a small area to sit out on the grass but we didn’t. These are budget rooms so when you book just check . However, the apartment was huge and had everything we needed and actually was nice and cool being a basement so it was fine, just a shock at first. Despite this, we had a wonderful holiday, fabulous hotel, fabulous pool, food and staff

The hotel We went to this small village with our two daughters. The gardens are beautifully kept, very green, with flowers and palm trees. The houses have nice facades and overall well kept. We loved that although you need to share the pool with the guests next door, it was not really busy, sometimes it felt like you had a private pool. They give the pool good maintenance, I saw that they would also check the quality of the water. The house is indeed a bit outdated, but this adds charm to the place. They clean the house daily (except Sundays) and you can ask for clean towels. The staff was always polite and friendly. There is no supermarket in the premises, but the town is a mere 5 minutes by car where you can get all you need. There is a small kitchen well equipped, although the prices of the food are really affordable everywhere. There is also a small beach, close by, walking distance. I read that someone mentioned, murky water, but that is not true. The beach is clean and the water is not dirty, it just has water plants. You can easily go there for a swim. The restaurant The restaurant's food was delicious, I have to say that during our stay in the island the best meals (dinner) were at the hotel. I would recommend the sea bass and the Tigania. The waiter, Nicolas was really very friendly and his recommendations were always right. Breakfast was ok, eggs (hard boiled, fried and scrambled), sausages, ham, feta cheese, yoghurt with jams and cereal. They also had different kinds of bread and home made quiches (which were actually very tasty). The fruit, melon and watermelon. There is also a coffee machine, apple juice and some kind of lemonade, no fresh juices. There was enough choice for everyone. I only missed, (maybe in the weekend) something different for the kids, like fresh pancakes. The Greek night was a lot of fun, the ambiance, music and the show were great. Even the staff was dancing. I would definitely recommend it. The side of the pool is nicely decorated, make sure to reserve a spot on time. The location You do need a car to visit the rest of the island, there is no hotel entertainment, but we already knew that and we really didn't mind, some days we stayed by the pool in the hotel, other days we went exploring the near by towns with our rental car. Lovely island, everyone is friendly, the lounge chairs and umbrellas at the different beaches are always free of charge, you just need to order a drink by the restaurants. And the food is also really good. Cons, The beds are hard, it is already mentioned by other reviews. My husband had more trouble than me on this. The pillows were lumpy, if you are fuzzy about pillows, bring your own. Trash cans were almost broken and the washing machine had mold. My daughters forgot her cuddly toy, it was unfortunately not found... Despite this we really like the place and if we ever decide to go back to Lesbos we will definitely go back to this hotel.

We have stayed at the Kalloni Village many times over the years, and we cannot say enough good things about the staff and the owners. They represent the true spirit of Greece. The property is starting to show its age. The grounds are not as well kept as in the past, and the rooms are overdue for renovation. I appreciate the challenges of COVID and the Greek economic crisis, but hotels on other islands have managed to keep up.
