Is a Solos Exclusives trip right for you?

Our Solos Exclusives are our most popular holiday style—small by design and reserved entirely for our guests. You won’t be "one of the only" solo travellers in a big resort; you’ll be part of a small group of 100% like-minded individuals in a property that is exclusively ours.

With an experienced Tour Leader on-site to ensure everything runs smoothly, you get the security of a group holiday with the total freedom to spend your time exactly how you want.

You’ll find a warm, easy-going atmosphere on the stylish wooden sun deck and plenty of opportunities to swap stories over local wine, all while enjoying the comfort of a private room with no single supplement.
  • The Explorer: For travellers who want the freedom to choose between a quiet morning with a book, a day cruise or a day trip to western Lesvos. You have total flexibility—join every optional excursion or simply enjoy the peace of the beach. You don't just have to lie around the pool (unless you want to!).
  • The Authentic Traveller: Ideal if you prefer intimate, family-run hotels over large, anonymous chains. Our hosts at Anaxos Alex offer a home-away-from-home feel, providing the kind of personal, heartfelt service you only find in a Greek retreat in the heart of Lesvos.

Dress Code
Casual, cotton, lightweight daytime and swim wear is the order of the day. Comfortable shoes are a must for sightseeing. Smart casual clothes will be ideal for the evening. Early and late season evenings can be cool so do ensure that you take a cardigan or jacket and even some rainwear to cover all eventualities
Gratuities

There is often confusion on the question of gratuities, since it frequently depends on the type of holiday, location and, of course, your attitude towards tipping, as to what is normally expected. To give you a rough idea, we have given appropriate guidance below.

Your Tour Leader will be on hand to offer advice or suggestions if required but gratuities are offered entirely at the sole discretion of the individual. We suggest a group collection to cover drivers, guides, porters, and hotel staff of approximately €25 per person. Your Tour Leader will collect this on your behalf and distribute it accordingly, thus relieving you of the burden of who, when and how much to tip.
