Wonderful studio equipped with everything one might need for a perfect stay, great location within the Town Walls and midway up the stairs to the fortress with beautiful views of the rest of the town, warm and welcoming host: everything was perfect! Thank you once again Mary for everything, you made our stay very special!

Wonderful

The studios are located just below Monemvasia Castle and Agia Sofia Acropolis.
Not really easy to reach as you have to climb up the steep way- advice: carry only a very small luggage. Anyway the view from the balcony is worthy it and you'll soon be satisfied.The huge rocky mountain dominates at back.
Room well equipped and nicely decorated, but unfortunately too small to move easily- always being afraid to make some ornament fall down or break it.

Nearly on the top of the mountain.

Eugh. Not great. Firstly, it was very tricky to find. Thank goodness we left our luggage in the car before trying to find Izambo. Our little room was what we were expecting, typical of the area and the age of the property. But we did not have a balcony, we had a little table and bench right next to the main tourist trail to the "high town", so no privacy - to the point we were asked if we were a cafe on more than one occasion. The walkers start at 6am, finish at 9.30ish pm...
But the main issue was that the accommodation stank of what we think (and saw- we have the piccies) of moth balls. Even from outside, it could be smelt. It was literally eye watering. It was to the point that we had to leave after 1 night, as my eyes were streaming, I was wheezing and my throat was burning. We also found, what we think (maybe wrong) ant powder around the bed. The place was also fumigated 2 weeks prior. For us, just too many chemicals. I appreciate that hot, stoney, old buildings will have insects, but this level of treatment appeared a bit extreme. After some communication with the owner and Booking.com, we did receive a refund and we are very appreciative of that indeed. The owner also apologised sincerely.   But I cannot recommend Izambo. As you can tell from my many other reviews, I'm usually a very positive reviewer. Sorry. 

Bit of a disaster

This place is heaven on earth.
Situated at the top of the rock the views are breathtaking.
Mary the owner is delightful and could not have been more helpful and kind and generous. She brought us spanakopita and a Greek cake made by her mother.
The room was so cosy...Small but incredibly well appointed and fantastically designed..We did not miss anything at all.
We had a terrace overlooking the town and the sea with a view to die for.
I will definitely return...One of the most romantic stunning quiet places I have ever stayed...utterly charming.
Ps. Take a small suitcase as you will have to cart it up numerous steps but the trek is well worth it. 
AMAZING PLACE....!!!!!

Very nice clean comfortable stylish rooms.
Nice price and stuff all in an amazing historical place.
Romantic and peaceful atmosphere drives you directly to 17th century.
One of the must go spots to visit in Greece
