Homestays in Elafonisos

Beautiful and charming island, beautiful and lovely decorated rooms, very clean, good breakfast.

The room was clean and the location very convenient.

Everything! The staff was friendly, the room were spacious and just 10min walk to the harbour. Can only recommend!

Our stay at Strongilos Homestay was absolutely flawless! From the warm welcome to the comfortable accommodation, everything exceeded our expectations. The room was clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated, with thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. The location was ideal—peaceful yet conveniently close to local attractions. John and Christos were incredibly kind and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, even offering great recommendations for sightseeing. Breakfast was delicious, with fresh, local ingredients that gave us a true taste of the region. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! If you’re looking for a charming, relaxing, and perfectly hosted stay, Strongilos Homestay is the place to be. We’ll definitely be back!

The place is great if you want to relax. Peaceful hills around, black skies at night…. A car is a must. Is it far from the beach or Monemvasia? No, but it all depends on your demands – check on Google Maps – it gives you a realistic idea. Privacy is complete (there are some houses not too far behind, and people live there, but I only met somebody once). For us, it was ideal. But this depends on your needs. For instance, we never met the host in 8 days there. I liked this fact, but this also meant that we had to buy food for breakfast, because the promised breakfast was not included. There was food when we came, which lasted about 3 days, but after that, that was it; I wrote to the owner and the owner responded that he couldn’t bring more food, because he lived far. So when you compare prices, do not take ‘Breakfast Included’ into account, if you stay longer than 3 days or so. So what you get is an ideal place, a cosy suite, and a complete privacy for a reasonable price, but without any service, if that’s important for you. We spent some time in Monemvasia almost every day, and it became more interesting each time we got there, but I would not choose it for vacation rental. In Guesthouse Kamara, we were surrounded by greenery, olive groves, while in Monemvasia, there’s mostly stones, ruins, and tourists. It’s very interesting and beautiful in Monamvasia, but not really relaxing, I’d say. Also, I wanted to mention, we made many furry friends there. Nice little cats and kittens in need of food. They ate ANYTHING we gave them, including BREAD. I mean each and every one of them. They were nice and gentle, but appeared pretty hungry, and we couldn’t stop ourselves from buying sausages and cheap fish for them. And we had to give out sausages piece by piece to make sure everyone gets some. So yes, I do recommend this place for a complete relaxation… And don’t forget to treat the cats!

George was one of the best hosts we’ve ever had! His place was amazing, great view and very clean! Overall, a worth experience! I really do recommend anyone going to Monemvasia, to book this place!

Good location in the uppermost part of town with clear view of the castle hill. Modern furnishing, good parking with easy access. Helpful host, speaking English.

The location is perfect. Nestled right in the heart of Monemvasia, but with just enough space from the main alley, that you feel a touch secluded. Handily - there is a wine bar literally right outside the door!

Location super, room excellent, service perfect, the owner make me feel at home and solve one my problem in night time. That's really professional !!! Thank you

Felt like gong back in time - on a castle! Great space in front of the room to take in the outdoor atmosphere. Very clean, free snack and drink. Close to everything, but still in a private space. Magical
