Pros:

Kinsterna is a truly exceptional estate that has been meticulously preserved and restored. The property is elegant, beautiful, and impeccably maintained. The rooms are tastefully designed with great attention to detail, and the beds are extremely comfortable. The bathroom amenities are of excellent quality. The breakfast buffet is exceptionally rich, varied, and delicious.
Dinner at the hotel’s restaurant was outstanding. The service throughout our stay was attentive, courteous, and of the highest standard. Overall, it was a luxurious and pampering experience that we highly enjoyed

Cons:

The Wi-Fi signal in our room was rather weak, and the internet connection was not always reliable. In addition, the water pressure in the shower was somewhat low.
Accessing the hotel can also be a bit inconvenient, especially for guests who plan to leave and return daily, as getting to and from the property takes some extra time and effort.

Wonderful!
Pros:

The breakfast is one of the best we’ve ever had: authentically greek flavours. The room was beautiful. We were lucky to receive an upgrade. The hotel pays a lot of attention to little details. Service is very friendly. We could only stay one night, so unfortunately we could not participate in the many fun activities. We would love to come back!

Un havre de paix dont on n’a pas envie de sortir
Pros:

Le site, face à la mer et la campagne, à l’écart de tout. Cette longue piscine qui permet de faire des longueurs, un oeil sur l’horizon. La décoration cossue de la villa, entourée de verdure et de fleurs. Le buffet du petit déjeuner, gigantesque.

Cons:

Rien

Perfection.
Pros:

Appropriately for Greece, it’s the platonic ideal of a perfect hotel. Incredible location, service, food. A phenomenon.

Cons:

That I can’t live there all year round.

Отдохнули душем и телом. Это был как ретрит для нашей семьи с собакой.
Pros:

Великолепный отель. От вдохновляющей истории создателя до хруста накрахмаленных наволочек.

Cons:

На завтрак хотелось сложных углеводов, кроме хлеба. Чай и кофе можно улучшить для отеля такого уровня.
