I've always had a strong desire to visit Monemvasia as I had heard so many good words about it. I didn't know how beautiful it would truly be until I finally traveled there last summer. For those who don't know, Monemvasia is a peninsula off the Peloponnesian east coast and it belongs to the... More >
My first view of Monevasia after I had crossed the 200-meter long causeway from the new town was magnificent: a fortress town with an imposing wall and gateway beyond which no vehicles are allowed. I walked through the labyrinth of narrow alleyways and got the feeling of having stepped into a... More >
Two days were enough to see Monemvasia. It's a lovely area in general and Monemvasia is well looked after. It's quaint and picturesque, with nice beaches and lots to discover in the town. Walk in the paved, winding streets, see the small churches and when you get to the top, you see the most... More >
Old medieval beauty

Old Monemvasia is called the area of the Old Town, which is the whole area around the castle. The castle of Monemvasia is actually built on a big rock. The rock stands above the new town (new Monemvasia). To get into the old town, there is only one entrance through a narrow passage. If you have a... More >
We collected information from the Internet and also bought the book "The Peloponnese" by Dana Facaros and Linda Theodorou to get around Peloponnese this summer. It was our 7th trip to Greece but first to Peloponnese. I was surprised to see that it has equally good beaches to the islands and also... More >
We stayed in Nea Monamvasia and our hotel had fantastic views across to the islet, yet was only 10 minutes walking from the entrance. Hotel rooms in Palea Monemvasia were much smaller, no good view and overpriced. The modern village has lots of small tavernas and a beautiful cake shop. The shops in... More >
Breathtaking Monemvasia

Monevasia is beautiful, breathtaking and unique: an area of living history that delights the visitor with every step through this ancient walled city. As one approaches the rock that juts into the sea, the surprise of Monemvasia is yet to be unveiled. Upon entering the tunnel through the ancient... More >
It was my second time in Monemvasia this summer. I have to say the first time I liked it better, the rock seemed more impressive to me. Monemvasia is a special place you do not easily find today. For the more romantic souls, it is the top medieval castle with narrow, stone paths that gives them the... More >
Make excursions

We used Monemvasia as a base to do excursions around Laconia. Of course, Monemvasia is a lovely town itself but has little things to offer to tourists. Except for the castle and the old town, there aren't many other sightseeings. After two days, there aren't any other things to do. On the other... More >
Stay at Monopati

Ive just spent the last 10 days in the Old Town of Monemvasia. Its especially great for singles entrepreneurs who wish to have some quiet time alone, gather their thoughts and just wander around aimlessly discovering the island. I stayed at the Monopati Apartments with Isabelle Sonnard Giannou... More >
