Location
The Monastery Estate Retreat is located in a remote and peaceful area surrounded by stunning scenery, making it perfect for those looking to escape it all. The hotel sits in the middle of mountains and is surrounded by olive trees, giving it an idyllic setting. While quite remote, it is still in close proximity to the nearby ancient city of Lissos and Sougia, which has a great beach just a 10-minute drive away. There are also great hiking trails nearby. The location is tranquil and guests have mentioned the serene setting in a small Greek village with an amazing taverna just a 5-minute walk away. The hotel also has lovely and helpful staff. While the drive to the hotel may be difficult due to the mountain roads, the location offers a picturesque area for those looking for some relaxing days exploring nearby beaches or hiking in the Samaria gorge.

Breakfast
The breakfast at the Monastery Estate Retreat has received mixed reviews from guests with some praising the amazing food and interesting selection of options. There is also the option to have breakfast delivered right to your door or enjoy it in your room. However, some guests were disappointed that breakfast was not included in the cost of the room or felt that it was overpriced. Due to Covid-19, the hotel provided food baskets upon request instead of a traditional buffet breakfast. Some guests found the breakfast basket basic and not worth the additional fee. Other guests were pleased with the quality and variety of the breakfast with some even calling it exceptional. If you're considering trying the breakfast at the Monastery Estate Retreat, it's important to keep in mind that meal times need to be booked in advance.

Dinner

Although the restaurant is only open a few days a week and not clearly stated on the website, guests can reserve dinner on occasion. Beyond the restaurant, there are also local options for dining that guests recommend - some within walking distance of the hotel. The only criticism is that the menu could have more variety, but guests still appreciate the chef and staff. Overall, Monastery Estate Retreat is a great call for those looking for a peaceful and tasty dining experience in a beautiful location.
