One of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. The hotel staff was super welcome and very attentive. The hotel is basically a farm that offer free experiences like bread-making and candle-making. We also booked a private beekeeper experience which was the highlight of our trip which was followed by honey tasting with the local beekeeper Mr Kostas who shared his knowledge and love for the bees. The breakfast was excellent and worth visiting as a standalone offering as well. Thank you so much!

Charming boutique hotel—cozy, stylish, and well kept. The staff are genuinely courteous and attentive, offering helpful tips and warm service throughout. Food is excellent (breakfast is a standout), making the on-site dining worth staying in for. Convenient location too: about 15 minutes from the center of Monemvasia, so you’re close to the action but in a quieter spot. Overall, great value for a relaxed, quality stay.

Outstanding.

Kinsterna Hotel is an exceptional establishment that I discovered last year, and I was so impressed that I immediately made a reservation for this year. This luxurious hotel offers a remarkable fine dining experience; the breakfast is incredibly abundant, and their restaurants are truly outstanding. They even cultivate all their vegetables on-site, which adds a unique touch to every meal. Each room boasts its own distinctive decor, and the views of the surrounding landscape are simply breathtaking. The staff is exceptionally friendly and attentive, ensuring that you feel welcome throughout your stay. It’s no surprise that the hotel received two Michelin Keys this year. I cannot wait to return!

This hotel is a wonderful retreat. It’s very relaxing with beautiful scenery. Close enough to go explore or just hang out and enjoy the atmosphere. The pools are beautiful, the gardens are wonderful. The landscaping is fabulous. We had dinner in the restaurant one night. It was amazing. But nothing compares to the breakfast each morning. I’ve never seen anything like it. The food was absolutely scrumptious. This is a wonderful hotel that I would definitely stay in again.

My stay at Kinsterna left me with mixed emotions. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. The pool area was beautiful and the breakfast was the highlight - an abundance of choice using fresh and local/their own produce - honey and marmalade were insanely good. Also, really liked that you could explore the grounds, their olive groves and vineyards and meet the lovely farm animals. However, there are a few negatives that have affected our experience. We arrived late due to our late flight - the hotel were informed in advance. Understandably due to our late arrival and it being dark the staff just took us to our room and didn’t offer us a tour of the grounds or a welcome drink. So we went to the reception in the morning but the female receptionist wasn’t overly welcoming and didn’t offer us anything - no information or a guided tour. We even had to ask where the breakfast was served. I expect more welcoming and helpful receptionists at a 5 star hotel, so a very disappointing start to our stay. Secondly we paid for an upgrade to one of the Byzantium rooms. Again this didn’t meet our expectations. I understand this is the historic part of the grounds but the room was very dark and very damp and the furniture felt very basic. There was even a dehumidifier on at all times and you you couldn’t use the cupboards as they smelt damp. Not an experience I was expecting of a 5star hotel. It is a lovely hotel but I wouldn’t say it matches the experience of other 5 star hotels.

Beautiful property but too many young children

Beautiful property and grounds, super friendly and helpful staff, and amazing food at all restaurants. However, for us this place was too family friendly. So many young children screaming and crying everywhere. We didn’t have a single meal from breakfast to dinner where children weren’t yelling and running around. Even the adult pool had children at it and staff didn’t enforce anything. If you’re a family with young children this place is perfect for you! But if you’re a couple or adult friend group, this place likely won’t be the relaxing place you likely have in mind.

Beautiful hotel a few km outside Monemvassia. Lovely pool area. High quality rooms - really well appointed. Excellent breakfast. Note however that the hotel is a 5-10 minute drive from the nearest town - the last km up a narrow lane. Prices of food and drink on site are significantly higher than the local norm

This is an amazing hotel with splendid facilities, gardens, pools, activities and an elevated but a bit of a distant view of the sea. Very unique indeed, historical and a bit exotic even. You have to drive quite some time to get there but worth it. The staff are super friendly and helpful but sometimes the poolside service took more time. Great breakfast but we felt the dinner was a bit sub par compared to genuine Greek dishes we had at many small tabernas, but the hotels own taberna was great with excellent local music. We liked it a lot and even upgraded and extended our stay.
