Villa Petri - A beautiful traditional house with a breath-taking view!

A corner in heaven!

In the most attractive area of Lesvos, overlooking the city of Petra, there is a small settlement, surrounded by walnut trees and poplars called Petri. Gifted with a breath-taking view, this is the place where time has stopped, a peaceful place waiting for you…
In spring and summertime Petri becomes an international haunt, since many foreigners have bought houses here.

At the corner of Petri, through a private road, you can find a beautiful traditional house, full of light, where you will enjoy the most enchanting sunset, with the sun diving into the sea every night…

Built on two levels, the house accommodates up to six guests, in three charming bedrooms at the second floor, provided with wooden floor and windows and a balcony overlooking the sea. All the rooms are furnished with taste, offering the most comfortable environment for a wonderful stay.
At the first floor, all covered in natural stone, a large living room with kitchen and fireplace is complemented by a cozy reading room. Outside, a large balcony and a flowery courtyard with view of Aegean Sea will be the perfect set for eating with your friends and family, for a great start in the morning, or a romantic dinner at night, cheered by the sound of nature.
Next to the house, you will find a traditional pottery workshop owned by the same family, where you will be able to see the whole procedure of ceramics crafting. If desired, a ceramic class can be arranged upon request.

The village of Petra, with its marvelous sandy beach, colorful tavernas, trendy bars, and restaurants is located only 5 minutes driving, or 30 minutes walking. Petra takes its name from the giant monolith located some distance inland and capped by the eighteenth-century church of Panagia Glykofiloussa, reached via 114 rock-hewn steps.

Villa Petri: Where serene surroundings meet Greek hospitality
The moment we saw Villa Petri, we knew we picked the perfect spot. From panoramic sea views and lush foliage outside to tasteful decor and spotlessly clean surroundings inside, the villa lives up to its billing and more. Beyond all that, the hosts, Dimitris and Georgia, couldn’t have been more welcoming, gracious and accessible. Even before we booked the place, Dimitris promptly addressed all our questions and concerns. These hosts embody the reason why Greeks are known for their hospitality. If you’re considering a stay on Lesvos, don’t look any further than Villa Petri. I promise, you won’t regret it!

In every way this was such a great place!
Dimitris and Georgias place was the perfect fit for us. It is very comfortable ,super clean and very relaxing serene. The beds comfy and Dimitris will go the extra mile to accommodate you (like when he set up an extra bed when we had an additional guest). The view is to die for, you are behind and above Petra village which allows you to gaze far into the horizon. The serenity and calmness almost healing. We rented a car and headed every day to different beaches and villages. Gréât adventures that Dimitris helped us plan! Petra, Molivos, Ag. Isidoros and Sigri were our favorites! Gréât beaches, great restaurants amazing beautiful island! You definitely need a car, a jeep of some sort. The house has all the amenities you might need and more! We loved it so much we are for sure coming back! Two weeks was not enough!

A lovely experience
This was a dream visit to Lesvos. The house itself is beautifully situated above Petra in a quiet village with exquisite views of the sea and the gentle sound of goats' bells for company. It has everything you need and was sparklingly clean. It's a place where you can relax into a slower pace of life. We loved exploring Lesvos and Dimitris had a multitude of recommendations for fine beaches, scenes of natural beauty, tavernas and restaurants. He and Georgia have a deep love of the island and were keen to share that with us. They are also artists. Georgia's beautiful ceramics and Dimitris's Platonic solids were a revelation - truly beautiful. They were very generous with their time, showing us their process of making in their studio behind the house and even giving us an introduction to ceramics. Gifted artists and warm hosts - we couldn't ask for more. Their enthusiasm is inspiring. Due to travel restrictions we nearly didn't make the trip; we're so glad that we were able to. We stayed for three weeks and could have stayed for a lot longer. Thank you Georgia and Dimitris!

Peaceful spot with beautiful views
We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely house. Dimitris, the host, was very friendly and helpful. This is the place to go if you want peace and quiet and to get away from it all. The house itself is down a long, narrow dirt track, which we had a little trouble finding! The views are spectacular and Petri is a very pretty, tiny hamlet, not too remote though because Petra with shops, restaurants and beaches is just a very short drive away.

Very hospitable and very friendly. Dimitri is the man.
Very nice setting, beatiful views of Petra. House has everything you need except dishwasher. Traditional greek house. A little secluded but good place to relax. Owners live next door so anything you'll need, they are there for help. Thanks to Dimitri and Giorgina.
