Kinsterna Hotel & Spa, 5*

Tucked-away in the folds of a lush hillside with privileged views of the Medieval Castle’s Rock of Monemvasia and the endless blue of the Aegean, the lovingly and superbly restored Byzantine-era rural mansion blends magically into the surrounding vineyards and timeless olive and citrus groves of Monemvasia, all irrigated by the ancient cistern located in the center of the building. Behind the mansion’s stone walls, 27 spectacular suites and rooms have been masterfully restored and stylishly designed with comfortable furniture and fittings creating a uniquely welcoming and warm atmosphere which blends with Monemvasia’s romantic and authentic character. The Kinsterna Spa’s unique layout and exceptional design create a stimulating space which, as it unfolds, leads our guests from the initial darkness of the reception area and changing rooms towards the sunlight which bathes the central area of the spa with its purifying hammam, temperature controlled whirlpool, wet and dry treatment rooms and razul and water paradise cabins.
