Situated on the island of Lesvos in the Northern Aegean Sea, The Neilson Aeolian Village Beachclub in Lesvos is far removed from the hustle and bustle of the better-known islands and is a firm favourite with new and returning guests. Sailors and windsurfers of all abilities will enjoy the extensive sailing area and consistent cross-offshore winds, while the surrounding hills are great for mountain biking with a wide variety of trails to explore.
Vassiliki is one of Europe's most famous windsurfing destinations bordering the shores of an impressive bay to the south of Lefkas island. It's a mecca for windsurfers who want to blast on flat water in the afternoons. The awe-inspiring mountains of Lefkas Island ensure the action doesn’t stop at the beach, with great terrain for all mountain bikers.
Contemporary design and minimalist architecture together with the clean lines of the design add a distinctly modern touch to the accommodation and public areas of Neilson's Messini Beachclub. Here you can enjoy the ultimate active escape with a vast sailing area, beautiful 50m swimming pool, excellent mountain biking and great tennis facilities. The location on Analipsi beach is idyllic, with uninterrupted views across the bay and large sailing area. The unspoilt, long sandy beach stretches as far as the eye can see with plenty of room to find a peaceful spot to get away from it all should the mood take you.
From the bay, the views towards Mount Athos on the Greek mainland are beautiful and most evenings you will be treated to the most spectacular sunsets over the pool and bar area. The spacious, flat layout, 50-metre swimming pool, lovely spa and short airport transfer make it a popular choice with everybody, especially families. It’s a great choice for all activities, in particular dingy sailing and mountain biking.
A collection of beaches forms the edge of the watersports area and a unique feature of the Retreat Beachclub is a shallow sand bar that leads the way through warm shallow waters to the sailing beach on a tiny wooded island. The flat water and light winds ensures fantastic conditions for waterskiing and wakeboarding, whilst the surrounding bay and coves are excellent for stand up paddle boarding and kayaking. Nestled amongst a wooded hillside, rooms sit between terraced gardens and are linked by a series of stone pathways and steps, which lead down to the waterfront below. The aptly named Retreat Beachclub is an idyllic haven that draws people back time and time again.
The Beachclub sits on the shores of a large sailing area with consistent winds and easy launching, whilst the mountain biking is simply superb with a huge variety of trails to explore. Families will also enjoy the easy-going atmosphere, large, spacious rooms, short airport transfer and fabulous children's clubs.
