Our stay at Vertali was made truly special by the outstanding customer service. Every member of the team was warm, welcoming, and genuinely committed to making our vacation memorable. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, we felt cared for and appreciated.
A very special thank you to Kiki, whose kindness, professionalism, and positive energy stood out every single day. She consistently went above and beyond and made us feel like valued guests rather than just another room number.
I’d also like to recognize the incredible breakfast team. Their friendliness and attention to detail did not go unnoticed.
Exceptional service is what transforms a great hotel into an unforgettable experience, and the team at Vertali did exactly that. Thank you for making our holiday so enjoyable. We will consider back again and create beautiful memories at Ventali.

"This is a good resort with many pools and spa but not on the beach.

How much does a Karinai travel package cost?
Say yes to new adventures with our Karinai travel packages, which start from a low £315. Select the hotels and flights that match your travel style. Then, add on a few tours or experiences to round off your unique getaway.
If I'm not able to travel, can I cancel my Karinai travel package?
We totally get it — life doesn't always go according to plan. If you've locked in a Karinai travel package and need to change or cancel it, we can help. We suggest browsing our Customer Service Portal first for information. But generally speaking, if you've booked your package within 24 hours, you may be able to amend or cancel your itinerary free of charge.

How do I get a cheap travel package to Karinai?
You'll save piles of cash if you bundle your flights, car rentals and hotels into a Karinai travel package. Sometimes cheap packages mean fewer choices. But that's not the case with Expedia. We offer over 550 partner airlines and 1,000,000 hotels throughout the world, so you'll always have plenty of options to choose from. Want to save even more? Add some exciting activities to your package deal and unlock even bigger discounts! After all, travel is about more than simply getting to your destination.
Does Expedia offer Book Now, Pay Later Karinai holidays?
Your bank balance shouldn't prevent you from taking a holiday, so Expedia has worked out a solution to help. Now that we've joined forces with online lender Klarna, it's easier than ever to book a dream getaway without using up all your savings. Klarna offers flexible payment options at checkout that take the stress out of budgeting for your escape. Consider one of these flexible payment options:
- Pay monthly holidays: If paying bite-sized amounts each month sounds right for you, Klarna can help. Paying in easy monthly instalments will make that dream getaway possible.
- Pay in instalments holidays: If you'd prefer to pay for your getaway in multiple transactions, holidays paid in instalments might be the best option for your Book Now, Pay Later holiday through Klarna.
- Low deposit holidays: If paying a small percentage of your trip (rather than the full total upfront) makes it easier to hit that "book now" button, go for a low deposit holiday payment plan from Klarna.
Where should I stay in Karinai?
There's loads to explore in Karinai, so stay close to its top attractions and treat yourself to more time sightseeing. Spili Monastery is one place to add to your must-see list.

It's difficult to pick the best time for airfares, but we generally suggest the earlier, the better. Many international journeys on Expedia become available up to 12 months in advance. If you can't book ahead, fear not. Cheap prices occasionally appear just weeks before departure dates.
What does an Expedia Karinai travel package include?

You can also add on fun things like activities and tours once you've made your booking. You're in charge! When you combine your bookings with Expedia, you'll enjoy discounts you won't find elsewhere.
