Lemnos Village Resort Hotel

We have just returned from a week in Lemons as a couple with university age daughter. Great location just 25 minutes from the airport. Island is quiet and unspoilt. Interconnecting rooms booked with elevated view across the bay to the wonderful sunsets and grandstand position for the sailing area (should have brought binoculars). Room clean and tidy but in need of refurbishment (we were in ones that were billed as refurbished (?!). Bathroom tired. Bed comfortable but pillows and duvet definitely showing signs of it nearly being the end of the season. Cleaned daily although it would have been nice if the cleaner hadn’t turned up at 8.30 every day ! Towels a little threadbare and bath mats bleach stained and unravelling. Shampoo, shower gel and soap provided. No conditioner or body lotion. One pool towel each, again a bit threadbare but appreciated. Aircon very efficient. Pegs on the driers on the balconies. Activities :- Loved the bikes both road and mountain. Plenty of both. Tom and Ben very helpful and keen to tweak with odd minor issues. Lots of guided tours should you wish to ride in company. Good quality roads. Can’t speak for tennis as not our thing but seemed lively. Didn’t participate in the Tipsy Tennis ! Classes - plenty of choice. Outdoor yoga and Pilates a joy in the evening breeze. Aqua aerobics silly fun in the heat. Didn’t try anything more energetic. Watersports - daughter completed RYA 1 with Will and thoroughly enjoyed it. Only one other person on the course so practically private lessons. Plenty of kayaks and SUPs. Husband had a foil board lesson which was fun but sadly low winds prevented him from going out again. Windsurfing equipment plentiful with sails showing signs of end of season fatigue. Lots of people enjoying lessons. Beach staff really proactive helping with launching and landing. Straight into the water to assist. All pleasant and chatty. Rescue boats buzzing around constantly happy to bring you back in if you’d had enough or the wind had dropped off. Dinghies - good range & in great condition. Always something available even when the racing was on. Pool a perfect temp for swimming. Same depth throughout (1.4m). Really quiet. A joy to swim lengths. Never any issue with securing a sun bed. Toilets in childcare adjacent to pool in need of refurb and showers in the building very dated and cramped. Food was spectacular. Evening meals are buffet style taken outside. Daughter is a veggie and she was spoilt for choice. Not just the usual veggie burger. Fresh choice of salads, bbq meats, sea food etc. small selection for dessert but more than adequate and supplemented with a choice of ice creams. Better value to order carafes of wine than bottles. We all very much looked forward to 7.30 every night. Breakfast choice very good. Hot and cold and plenty of fresh fruit. This is taken upstairs. The area is a little cramped and gets quite busy. Slightly precarious with small, loose children and hot food

Lemnos is a lovely island, the location is good - a short taxi ride from town. The site is pretty steep so it won’t suit everyone as there are quite a lot of steps. Our room was good, with a comfortable bed and good air con, which we needed even though it was early June. The rooms were spotless but could probably do with refurbishment. The food was some of the best we have had at Mark Warner but the self service format disrupts the meal and conversation. The sunsets were spectacular. I did not appreciate the feral cats wandering around during dinner. The sailing area was good but the maintenance of the boats was not of a high standard eg sails with no battens. The pool area was very nice but probably needs more umbrellas in high summer. Staff were helpful and friendly throughout, the manager and her team were very welcoming. The post dinner “entertainment” should be stopped immediately, give the staff the night off! Ridiculous quizzes, loud music, nothing Greek! It’s a lovely quiet location with beautiful views, during school holidays it might not be quite so quiet but the island is small and quiet. Even in early June it was over 30 degrees.

Mark Warner Holidays are so versatile for all ages, demographics and different wants from a break away - it is what you make it and I have a different experience every year. This year it's been fab for me as a female, solo traveler aged 31 (outside of kids holiday season) - I felt very safe, looked after, and part of a community, yet independant and able to explore whenever I fancied. Typically I don't stop bouncing from activity to activity (a whole range of land and water sports), chatting to everyone, but this year I balanced this with recovery, relaxing days where I kept myself to myself on sun loungers and in the room courtyard (it was equally as lovely). For me, it's the staff at this resort that make the holiday so special - management's professional warm and friendly style clearly shapes a collegiate, welcoming, and enthusiastic team who focus on ensuring the guests are happy and having a fun/relaxing time. On the other end of the spectrum, there were some families who utilised the amazing childcare facilities (for their young babies) which had no impact on the adult feel to this holiday - I think it's an ideal place for a friendship group that's at different stages of their lives, able to do their own things whilst also having the ability to socialise together as and when they choose at breakfasts, day activities, late afternoon beach bar drinks and / or dinner. I would highly recommend this resort.

Another nice holiday at Lemnos Village. Location is good, pool and beach close by and always tidy. Staff are very friendly and polite, couldn't fault them. Only criticisms are the rooms are very very tired chipped paintwork on doors and walls, rusty waste paper bins in bathrooms and dated furnishings and sanitary ware. Slight sewage smell in bathroom. Internet is very bad could hardly get any most of the time. Breakfast and Dinner are excellent with huge choices. Would be nice to maybe offer a courtesy bus to Myrina a few times a day as there isn't anywhere else to go and taxis can start mounting up?

Great Mark Warner holiday in the sun. Good food, great staff and sunshine! The resort is very clean and all equipment is good. Take a bike out and cycle to the local port. Beach is clean and a stones throw from the hotel.

We had a wonderful time at Mark Warner resort Lemnos 30th August to 7th of September. Timing wise as most children were back to school it was mostly adults, some with their inbetweeners! We enjoyed the activities across the resort, including the sailing and of course the water polo! The quality of food was good, prices for food and drinks (outside of breakfast and dinner) are a bit more than they would be off site but not excessive (We averaged £25 a head a day for snacks, lunch, and all alcohol). The Mark Warner team were professional and attentive. George the manager was omnipresent, friendly, and informative. Improvements I would suggest would be for Mark Warner could bring bottled water to the airport to pick up new arrivals, offer a personal trainer session to help guests plan their exercise activity goals and maybe review the evening entertainment. All in all we were very happy, I wasn’t too bothered by the Greek rowers, who were letting of steam by the pool but weren’t a problem. We also staged a GB vs Greece water polo match on the Thursday morning which was fun and of course we won!! We are attending to return.
