Off the beaten track, on the island of Lemnos, Portomyrina Palace is perfectly situated. It's heaven for mountain bikers and sailors. The surrounding hillsides are full of trails to explore and the wind blows consistently; sailors and windsurfers will be in their element.

The journey from the airport to the beach at Portomyrina Palace takes just 30 minutes. In no time at all you'll be relaxing with a drink and dipping your toes in the 50-metre pool.

The pool bar has a unique design with a canopied roof shading you from the sun. It's a great place to chat over the day's adventures. Stop by for a sundowner and catch the sun setting over the pool. 

Activities on the water

Dinghy sailing, windsurfing, kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, water skiing and wakeboarding are all inclusive water sports, so there's nothing to stop you having a go and joining in with the on the water fun!

The bay is big (stretching up to one kilometre offshore and the whole width of the bay) and the water lovely and clear. With stronger winds in the morning, sailors and windsurfers will have a great start to their day. In the afternoon, conditions tend to be better for beginner sailors and windsurfers. There's tuition for all levels with RYA Start Sailing and Basic Skills together with clinics, racing and regattas. For windsurfers there's tuition available up to intermediate planing level. 
 

Wind conditions

Cross on-shore wind tends to be stronger in the morning, often reaching Force 4+ before dropping off in the afternoon. The typical wind force ranges from 2-6, with the most consistent conditions in July and August.  

Activities on the shore

Back on land the inclusive activities include mountain biking, tennis and fitness classes including bootcamp, circuits, Zumba and stretch.

The wild and unspoilt landscape is crammed with mountain bike trails. Set off on a guided ride to tackle the ascents and be rewarded with the rush of epic off road descents. If that's not for you, there are plenty of easy going rides, exploring local villages and olive groves. If you're looking for a challenge, you'll enjoy the ride out to the radio masts and the mainly off-road descent from the high point of 324m. At the other end of the adrenaline scale there's a leisurely ride to Myrina and the castle.

Treat yourself with a visit to the spa. From top to toe, our therapists offer a full range of treatments. There's an adult-only indoor pool, four treatment rooms (including one just for couples) and a relaxation and manicure area.

If you know you'll definitely be using the spa, it's worth pre-booking a spa package and taking advantage of savings on the resort prices. Use of facilities is free, treatments will be charged to your room.

Your holiday includes club board meals – that's your breakfast and lunch every day plus four evening meals a week. You can eat outdoors under the shade of olive trees, escape the sun and retreat to the indoor restaurant or dine in adult-only company if you wish to.

At the end of the day, head to the pool bar, choose from our delicious cocktail menu and settle back to catch one of the sunsets.

There's a bright and sunny feel to the garden rooms. Your room will be on the ground or first floor of small whitewashed buildings with terracotta roofs (both ground and first floor have steps to access the room). Close to the pool and beach, all have a small balcony or a terrace which opens onto the lawns. Garden room types include 'economy' and 'club' twin, double and interconnecting rooms and suites.
