“Wonderful, authentic property in a real Greek mountain village - like being in a fairy tale! Short, lovely walk to the few shops and tavernas. No A/C, but don't need it with cool mountain temps, even in the middle of August! Host Olga is super cool and helpful. We're coming back!.”
“We stumbled across this retreat almost by accident and it was the highlight of our trip to Greece. We’ve traveled the entire country and seen the most amazing places but the Ambelona Retreat is in its a class of its own.
From the amazing service from our host George, to the phenomenal views and architecture, this place can only be described as magical.
We will 100% be back and I can’t wait.
Thank you!!”
“Great place with amazing views! Elena, the owner, was lovely but doesn't speak English. We managed with a few words each, a bit of sign language and a lot of Google translate. Rooms are perhaps unusual in decor but very comfortable and lots of choice for breakfast - particularly good omelette cooked freshly by Elena. Good tavernas within walking distance. Fabulous walking with the menalon trail. Very quiet and peaceful. And did I mention the views!”
“Amazing location up in the mountains with a million euro view in every direction. The location is above a traditional Greek village, which has cafe’s and a pharmacy. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. We truly enjoyed our stay here and will return.”
“Fantastische locatie en super mooie kamer met waanzinnig uitzicht! Alle details tot in de puntjes uitgewerkt. Ook het ontbijt is heel lekker en uitgebreid.
Op Expedia stond dat de kamers uitgerust waren met bubbelbad. We hadden een junior suite geboekt maar hadden geen bad. We hebben hier ook niet naar gevraagd want was de kamer was prima voor ons!!”
“We had an excellent time at the farm. The farm was quite new and very clean, the right size for young kids to roam around and watch the animals. You can smell the rosemary and lavender from the garden. The breakfast is fresh and tasty and the people who serve us are very warm. The estate guard dog Kony is super friendly and my kids loved playing with her.
The Arcadia is a mountainous area which is very different from other more popular Greek destinations. They were not a lot of choices……
“I had the pleasure of staying in this superb guesthouse. Location was fantastic Yakinthi and Sofiris are fantastic hosts. The room was spotless the beds where so comfortable had a great shower and the towels where super soft. Fridge was stocked with family recipe jams and marmalades with plenty of bottled water with bread and a lovely note in a welcome basket. I will not stay anywhere else when i go back to Tripoli and cant recommend the guesthouse high enough. And the meal in the Restaurant……
