About Elea Mare Hotel
Elea Mare Hotel rises from the Peloponnese coastline near Monemvasia, commanding views across the Aegean Sea toward the medieval fortress town.
Stone architecture and terraced grounds integrate with the dramatic cliff landscape, where whitewashed structures frame azure waters below.
The hotel's 230-meter elevation positions ceremonies and receptions within sight of both sea and ancient stone fortifications.

Beautiful hotel right on the sea. The staff are very helpful and friendly. There is breakfast for an additional low price every morning on the rooftop.
