Beachfront hotel on the Aegean Sea in Pyrgi Thermi, Lesvos
Beachfront & Grounds
Hotel Votsala sits directly on the Aegean Sea, with its own jetty for swimming and launching canoes. The property includes a lush garden with old trees and vine-covered tables, a sun terrace, and a wide lawn that reaches the water. Guests have access to sunbeds and shaded areas, SUP boards, and a pier that allows swimming in both shallow and deep water.
Accommodations
The hotel offers 7 studios with garden or sea views, each featuring a private bathroom, balcony, refrigerator, and electric kettle. Rooms have no TV, encouraging guests to read or socialize; windows and doors are meant to stay open for the sea breeze. Some rooms include a rudimentary kitchen, and all are cleaned daily.
Dining & Leisure
A Mediterranean buffet breakfast is served from 7 to 11 a.m. on a terrace overlooking the Aegean, with different pastries, börek, and cakes prepared daily. The hotel also offers a Swedish buffet lunch on weekdays and an à la carte dinner twice a week, including a Saturday barbecue night. The bar is open every afternoon and evening for drinks and conversation.
Activities & Excursions
The hotel organizes daily excursions led by the hosts, including history walking tours, boat trips, and cooking classes. Theme weeks such as History Week feature expert-led expeditions to archaeological sites on the island. Canoes, SUP boards, and a selection of books and board games are available for guests to borrow at no extra cost.
Family & Pet-Friendly
Family rooms with multiple beds accommodate groups, and the garden and lawn provide safe play areas for children. Pets are allowed at no additional charge, and the resident dog Ekmek is part of the hotel atmosphere. The hotel has no gradual sea access and does not offer a kids' club, so it is not suitable for toddlers; older children enjoy the space and activities.

Beachfront: Direct Aegean access with private jetty
Rooms: 7 studios with sea or garden views, no TV
Dining: Buffet breakfast until 11 a.m., barbecue nights
