Meet & Greet by Stavros on the golf buggie to collect the luggage, room was great, dining at main restaurant, breakfast and tavern were excellent. Marieta at the pool was very attentive to all guests.

On arrival at reception not a warm & welcoming greeting, Too many cats around the property particularly around all food & beverage areas including around the pool. The breakfast room needs a proper toaster to accommodate for the selection of different breads, the 2 slice toaster was difficult to use other than standard sandwich slice.

The hotel property, that is a meticulously restored historic mansion, is absolutely stunning! We stayed in a villa with a private pool, with views of the sea and the surrounding gardens, vineyards, olive groves, and cypress trees. The words cannot describe the beauty of this place! We enjoyed seeing the many animals that live on the property and are lovingly taken care of. The friendly and always accommodating staff went out of their way to fulfill our every wish, especially Lazaros, who arranged our accommodation. We loved the fresh and healthy Mediterranean cuisine with emphasis on the produce grown in the hotel’s gardens. The freshly squeezed orange juice and the Kinsterna house wines were amazing. The daily baked fresh crusty bread that came with our Greek salad was the best we ever had! Cannot wait to come back!

The property is not easy to reach, but it is so worth the trip! There is so much to explore and enjoy, we wished we had more time there.

Incredible place, unique architecture. Water - spring, pools, flowers, trees, oranges, figs, olives, gardens, paths, sheep, horses, donkey - an individual approach to every place, special attention to every detail. Last but not least, or perhaps first place - THE PEOPLE. Excellent management of everything: George. In the morning: a smile and coffee - Angel, Sotiria, the all team. The evening is wonderful. The food in the Mouries restaurant is delicious (gourmet) thanks to the chef. Linos tavern, the bars ... Everything is even better because of the smiles of Kostas, Kristina, Vasilka, Dimitra. Everyone, every member of the Kinsterna team, makes sure you have everything at any time of day and night. Special thanks to Ivan, Anna (Antique shop), George Askounis - experiences manager, the girls and boys from reception.

Everything was perfect

Unique setting, very serene, architecture/design true to the area and the history of the mansion. We really enjoyed the pool - great adult pool with a bar was just perfect for winding down. Really appreciated the fact that bottled water was not charged throughout our stay. This includes the minibar and the pool.

Breakfast was subpar for a 5* hotel - the variety was exceptionally limited. Though they have a fitness center, it is really a sad one. Dark & crammed tucked away in a small room - feels this was more to 'tick the box'. The hotel does not have any concierge service, or anyone trained to help with ideas related to trips/things to do in the area, bookings, etc. This was a disappointment as we did rely on it. They do have an Activity Manager - but her responsibilities are limited to activities on the property only.

First and foremost - the staff was always very kind and attentive! We loved how kid-friendly Kinsterna is: the cool (and complimentary) activities they have to offer, the fact that they have kid-friendly cutlery ready for you, the family pool is perfect for kids of any age, the plush donkey our kid received as a gift, the playground, the indoor playroom, the animals onsite, a great kids menu, and of course how genuinely nice the staff was to our kid. The hotel itself is a beautiful property, with plenty of corners to enjoy at all times of day. The food at the pool and at both restaurants was amazing.

Not that I disliked this but I think it's a missed opportunity. The horse grooming activity could be much more interactive, we could've learned the names of the horses, what they like to eat, how to brush them, etc. Instead we were just given a brush and left to do what we thought was best.

A Truly Special Stay at Kinsterna Hotel Our stay at Kinsterna Hotel was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this is a place built with love, care, and incredible attention to detail. Every corner of the property reflects the passion and vision of the owner — it feels both deeply authentic and wonderfully refined. The setting is stunning, blending history, nature, and comfort in a way that’s truly unique. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment of our stay, whether relaxing on the grounds or exploring the nearby area. The dining experience was also a highlight. Both restaurants were well priced and offered outstanding food — fresh produce grown on the farm, and beautifully presented. It’s rare to find a hotel where everything feels this thoughtfully curated. We’ll absolutely be returning and wholeheartedly recommend Kinsterna to anyone looking for a memorable, heartfelt escape.

The location is beautiful and the swimming pools were lovely. The breakfast was outstanding! Such a great array of produce and variety of savoury and sweet. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Staff very nice too.

The evening dinners were a bit disappointing. Food tasted delicious but considering they pride themselves on fresh garden produce (which is served at breakfast) there wasn’t much served in the evenings, why not serve a lovely dish of home grown veg! I had to ask for some but all they did was add on a few courgettes into our dinner! Portions very small too for the price! Trying to be too nouveau cuisine! Also staff were lacking when we had dinner in the regular restaurant as I think they were all on hand for the tasting menu in another area, we had very slow service! One other thing we had room 21 near the lily pond and the nocturnal frogs (we think) were very noisy! I didn’t get much sleep as I’m a light sleeper!

I had seen the details of this hotel some time ago. We travelled from Thessaloniki to stay for three days. This is an amazing hotel with views of Monemvasia in the distance. The estate produces fresh vegetables for the kitchen and you see this on the menu. The hotel has plentiful activities: making bread, horseriding, discovering the sandy beaches nearby, getting to know all the plants and flowers, walking the estate. There are two magnificent swimming pools. The staff is beyond praise. Equally the rooms. You could have a holiday here doing nothing except the many facilities of the hotel or you could spend more than a week discovering Laconia all within easy drive from the hotel. The hotel has its own wine which is excellent

The location is stunning: a unique estate where you could spend an entire week without getting bored. Numerous activities, two swimming pools and beautiful surroundings that are well worth exploring. If you have a car, you can easily reach gorgeous spots in the area. A word of caution about the road: the GPS may take you onto a forest track that is very difficult to drive. Ask the reception in advance to send you the correct route pin.

Everything was perfect.

Breakfast was amazing, local produce, the CAKES! Delicious selection. The pool bar mocktails were delicious, food in the restaurants was amazing, the staff perfectly trained, made us feel so special! We did a garden tour and got to learn so much about the plants and veggies they grow, bought some delicious local olive oil. All in all an amazing stay

Nothing!
