Tourism development in our locality had a positive impact on the local economy. It has broadened the horizons of the locals thus giving them the incentive to stay around and not to go off to Mainland Greece to seek employment.
However through responsible tourism we further encourage the local people to take a deeper interest in and to safeguard nature, habitats, wildlife, monuments, culture and heritage and continue with the cultivation of the land. Thus the local community continues to survive and prosper with increasing employment opportunities and the products of the community are gaining customers.
The Hotel we use operates its own environmental policy, using environmentally friendly cleaning products and employing local people. It encourages guests to use energy efficiently and keep water consumption to a minimum. Lights in communal areas operate on sensors and the water is heated via solar panels (for about 9 months yearly) thus further reducing energy consumption. Vegetable and garden matter is composted and bottles from the bar are returned to the original supplier.
If you want to help preserve Lesvos’s history, tradition and culture for future generation to enjoy and have an incredible vacation in the bargain, this is the way to do it.
We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
