Reviews
Delightful room overlooking the ocean. The breakfast was excellent! Be prepared for cobblestones and stairs in the village but it was wonderful fun exploring the town
Just one thing to note it’s a long walk from where you drop your luggage off so if you’re only going for a few days take a little amount so you don’t have to carry too much
Great place to stay in Monemvasia!! Patio had awesome views and the breakfast delivered much more than advertised!
Monemvasia is an amazing place to visit. Felt like we were living in a medieval castle. The room was comfortable with a nice balcony. Great breakfast. Friendly staff. Definitely a highlight of our trip.
a must when visiting Greece.
