Resorter i Egeerhavet

The fortified town of Monemvasia sits upon a rocky peninsula off the east coast of the Peloponnese. Though the 300ft (100m) cliffs proved difficult to conquer, it's strategic position made it a pawn during treaty negotiations.

The lower town and cliff-top fortress were founded in the 6th century and initially served as a refuge during the Slavic and Avaric invasion of Greece. Later, the fortress withstood Arab and Norman invasions in 1147, but finally fell to Achaea after a three year siege in 1248. Over the next few hundred years it was ruled by the Byzantine Empire, then the Vatican, the Venetians, the Ottomans and finally the Greeks.

Today, the lower town has become a quaint tourist village while the upper fortress lies largely in ruins. It's worth the climb up though just to wander the walls and enjoy the views. Watch your step though - you don't want to fall into an ancient cistern!

Monemvasia is a worthy overnight stay. If you aren't up for driving, hop a 4 hour ferry from Athens.

Anmeldelser av populære hoteller i Egeerhavet

Avli Lounge Apartments

8/10 Bra

"Koselig hotell midt i sentrum av gamlebyen. Er du var så er dette ikke hotellet å dra til, mye bråk utenfor. Ellers helt tipp topp. Veldig god frokost."

Hotel Casa Moazzo

10/10 Utmerket

"We had an excellent stay at Casa Moazzo. Beatiful suite, The Executive suite, new and with private terrace. Very sentral, but quite surrondings. Excellent for walking to beach in day time and exploring and eating well in the old town in the evening before walking back to a nice sleep in a lovely suite. Perfect for a couple, but had an extra bed in a small "attic" we didn't use. The included breakfast was nicely prepared and served in very nice area. Service minded smiling staff made the start of the day perfect. The owners where very service minded in it is clear they love to make the stay for their guests as good as possible. Based on the good review from others we had very high exprectations, and in fact they where more than met. We'll be back!"

Civitas Suites Hotel

6/10 Greit

"When I stayed there in the end of Jan.2025 the indoor temperature in the hotelroom was only 18-19 degrees Celsius. Like most people I am used to about 21 deg. C, so it was not warm at all indoors. Two receptionists tried on two different days to adjust the AC to warm up the room, with no luck. The AC was new but the air that it blew out into the room had the same temperature as the air in the room. Other than that the receptionists helped me find out that Avast AntiVirus made it impossible to get the wi-fi working, and when I removed it from the laptop it worked very well. Cleaning was very good, seaview was good, but they did not serve breakfast at this time of the year. Which sent me out wandering up and down the seaside promenade to find a place that served something somewhat similar to breakfast. Good location but the restaurant/bar/cafe area outside the hotel was noisy in the evenings. With closed window the noise was kept out."
