Historical house in a thousand years old citadel above the sea

This is a truly unique house in an historical village. It sleeps up to 7 people and its position on the Kastro’s rampart walk, twelve meters above the sea, gives it outstanding panoramic views.
It boasts a rooftop terrace, where you can relax and if you decide to swim, there is the charming Portello two minutes from the house.
For more than 40 years, the owner of this house has patiently restored and embellished it with rare objects, giving it a very special ambiance.
We needn’t say more about this dream property, the pictures speak for themselves….
If you are looking to stay in Monemvasia you probably know a few things about the history…..but here’s a quick summary. The fortress dates back to 583 by mainlanders fleeing slavic and Avaric invaders. From the the 10th century AD, the town developed into an important trade and maritime centre. The fortress has withstood countless invasions and sieges over the centuries, earning the nickname « Gibraltar of the East ». Today it is one of the most picturesque places in Greece, and that’s saying something !
There is a road connection from the mainland to the entrance gate of the village with a regular bus service from the downtown to Kastro.
In the medieval village itself, transport is only by foot but guests can arrange for their luggage to be carried to the house by a porter.
