A big disappointment after travelling about 100 kms to see it. The church, museum and winery were closed to the public and the 'monks' were away elsewhere; only the cafe was open that serves drinks...

As a fortified Monastery in a prominent position it stands out. I actually thought it was smaller than I imagined with the main structure being quite a small square high walled box. This leads to...

A disappointment. Don’t get me wrong - it is a holy place and the church is beautiful and there are some impressive and miraculous icons. But the place isn’t orgazised well and the shop is so much...

Amazing monastery; beautiful view, tremendous historic-feeling as being 3/4 centuries before… extremely clean, in order and tourist friendly (free visit in the low season, april-may). 100% recommended.
-
Peaceful historical place with many orthodox icons and etchings. Car park on site as well as outside. Entrance charge €4 There is a cafe with good coffee within the complex.
-
Very nice and unique monastery. Extremely quiet and clean. Didn't have the chance to see the museum inside the monastery which is closed during Sundays.
-
very nice and relaxing place. it is a museum so you need to pay entrance fee, this was surprising for me as well. the history and the books are in good condition. if you stop here before going to Vai beach, then it's perfect. it's just in a way to the beach.
-
Unfortunately it was shut when I arrived (despite being within the opening hours advertised on the website) but the outside is beautiful and in a lovely spot.
