Map & location
Molivos, Lesvos, Greece
Sunrise Resort Hotel enjoys a tranquil hillside setting just outside Molivos (also known as Molyvos), one of Lesvos’ prettiest villages. Terracotta roofs, cobbled lanes and bougainvillea-draped houses tumble down towards a postcard harbour packed with fishing boats and tavernas.
From the hotel, you look straight out across the Aegean, with rural hillsides behind and the old castle of Molivos a short drive away. The nearest sand-and-shingle beach lies below the property, while the complimentary shuttle connects you effortlessly with Molivos’ boutiques, cafés and waterfront restaurants – ideal if you don’t fancy the walk back uphill in the heat.
- • Nearest sand and shingle beach 750m
- • Molivos resort centre & harbour 2km
- • Shuttle bus to Molivos around 5 times per day (subject to timetable)
- • Mytilene town (capital) 60km
- Approx. transfer time from airport 2 hours

Pool & outdoors
Life at Sunrise Resort Hotel naturally gravitates towards the water. Two freshwater outdoor pools step down the hillside, edged by wide sun terraces, olive trees and uninterrupted sea views.

• Second outdoor freshwater pool with waterfall, jets, children’s section and integrated whirlpool
• Separate children’s section in one pool, ideal for younger swimmers

From the hotel, it’s a downhill stroll (or a short ride) to the nearest sand-and-shingle beach, where you can dip into the clear Aegean and enjoy classic Greek island swimming. Facilities and lifeguard cover can vary by season, so ask locally for the latest information.
