Stemnitsa Guesthouse — Hotel in Municipality of Gortynia

We arrived in Stemnitsa during a holiday weekend and the town was jammed with tourists.

The Best Guest House in Stemnitsa Village. Mr.Tasos and Mrs Garifalia are the most gracious hosts. The highlight of our stay was the home made Breakfast which included the most delicious pies with local greens and omelettes made with fresh eggs and cheese. Plus the real greek coffee!!! We felt welcome and right at home . The WiFi was super, the lounge room was cosy with the fire always lit , although it was cold outside we were always nice and warm in our imaculate clean rooms .

I was extremely satisfied and hope to return...
