Took my teenage daughter and my wife and everyone got stuck in — the kids enjoyed choosing bold colors while the adults focused on pattern balance. The teacher explained safety with the cutting tools and helped with grout application so nothing cracked. It was relaxing, and watching the piece get polished at the end felt very satisfying. They wrapped it well for our flight home.

Four of us had a lovely few hours designing different styles — geometric, floral, and an abstract mix. The instructor spent time showing each step from layout to sanding the edges and was patient when we hesitated over color choices. The Mediterranean light in the studio made the tiles glow; we all left with polished candle holders that actually look good on our mantels.

I went alone and enjoyed the focused instruction — the artisan explained how to cut tiles safely and how grout changes the final look. The hands-on gluing was meditative and the finishing steps made the piece feel professional. They gave clear advice on how to transport it home; worth doing if you want something handmade and useful.

This workshop struck a nice balance between teaching technique and letting you be creative. The instructor walked us through grouting and polishing so our holders didn’t look like craft fair items. I appreciated the small group size and the panoramic studio view — a calm alternative to the usual tourist bustle.

We surprised a friend with this and it was a hit. The tools and tile-cutting demos were handled professionally, and the instructor helped correct a few layout mistakes without taking over. Seeing the grout bring everything together was unexpectedly rewarding. They boxed our finished pieces for travel and advised on padding for flights.

The step-by-step approach made it approachable — from planning a pattern to applying grout and buffing the finish. The instructor offered helpful composition tips (how to balance color and negative space) which improved my final piece. The studio’s relaxed atmosphere made it an enjoyable creative afternoon.

We brought our five-year-old and the instructors adapted tasks so the child could place larger tiles while adults handled cutting and finishing. The team focused on safety around the nippers and the grout stage was well supervised. The result was a meaningful family keepsake and the staff took care packing it for our return.

Lovely, hands-on experience. We learned how different cuts influence the light pattern when a candle is lit and practiced grouting to get a smooth finish. The instructor explained how to avoid common mistakes and left us confident to try mosaic work at home. The view and the friendly atmosphere made it a relaxed craft session.

Good mix of technique and creativity — the cutting demo was precise and the instructor explained how to polish edges for a clean look. They helped when my grout application was uneven and showed how to clean up neatly. I appreciated the advice on travel-safe packaging so it arrived intact back home.

Three of us went for something different and enjoyed the slow, focused pace. The instructor gave clear demonstrations of tile cutting, arranging, and grouting; the polishing step really elevated the finished product. It felt like learning a small traditional craft with modern practical tips — very satisfying.

We liked that the instructor emphasized design principles — contrast, rhythm, and focal points — which made the arranging stage easier. The hands-on cutting and grouting felt safe and well-managed. Our candle holder came out polished and sturdy; they packed it securely for our flight and gave care instructions.

Calm studio, clear steps, and helpful feedback — I learned how grout depth affects how candlelight filters through. The instructor showed small finishing techniques that made a big difference in the final look. It was a peaceful way to spend an afternoon and I left with a piece I’ll keep on my bedside table.

Three generations did this together and it worked well — the instructor tailored explanations and made sure everyone had a role, from layout to grout smoothing. Watching the piece come together and then polishing it felt rewarding. They packaged the finished holder carefully for the plane.

We enjoyed the creative process and the instructor was knowledgeable about cutting and grouting techniques, but the session felt a touch rushed at the end when finishing multiple pieces. The final polish was good and the staff packed our holders sensibly, but I would have liked a bit more time for detailed arranging.

I liked the historical bits the instructor shared about local mosaic traditions and then seeing the practical side — cutting, placing, and grouting. The finish and polish made the holder look professional and the staff gave good packing advice. A peaceful, skill-based activity with a meaningful souvenir.

We appreciated the emphasis on finishing: sanding edges and polishing grout made our holders look tidy and usable. The teacher gave thoughtful advice on choosing tile size to affect light diffusion and helped when we needed steadier cuts. The studio atmosphere felt calm and the view added to the experience.

We brought two small children and the instructors assigned kid-friendly tasks so everyone could join in safely. The adults handled the more technical steps like cutting and grout smoothing while the kids placed colorful tiles. The finished holders looked charming and they packed the pieces well for our journey home.

The session provided solid instruction on layout, cutting, and grouting, and the final polish made the holder look professional. My only gripe was the group size felt slightly larger than I expected, which limited one-on-one time during tile cutting. Still left with a nice keepsake and practical tips for future projects.
