Quiet and Relaxing Stay
The room was cleaned every day, in fact the hold complex was spotless. Both Stelios and Anastasia were very approachable and extremely helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. The area was really quiet allowing us to relax with no worries. Only 500 metres to Melissani lake/cave also a bonus. Coastal path into Sami took around 25-30 mins at a leisurely pace. There were 3 restaurants nearby in Karavomylos but plenty in Sami. There is a mini-market on the square for essentials but best go into Sami supermarkets for cheaper products. Will definitely make a return visit in the future.

A lovely place to stay.
My stay here was lovely. The host was very friendly and helpful throughout and the room itself was very clean, great modern style and came with everything we would need for self catering. If I were to return to this side of the island, I would definitely stay here again.

The property is beautifully maintained and Stellios is an excellent host. The added bonus of the swimming pool was great. The property is located just outside Sami, which is a really good centre and has lots of nice tavernas. Sami is a 30 minute walk away along the seashore. Highly recommend Studios Diamanto - you won't be disappointed.

This property is amazing! It’s in an amazing location, on a quiet residential street but not too far out. The rooms are extremely clean and have everything you need for a holiday including cooking facilities. Sami is about a 25 minute walk away along the seafront which is a lovely walk in the evening. I could not recommend these apartments more, we will definitely coming back!!

Spotless rooms with great pool and lovely host!
We had a great time with our parents staying at Diamanto. The rooms were simple, spacious and were cleaned everyday. The pool was large and very well maintained, we had it to ourselves most of the week! Stelios and his family were charming, making time to talk to us and giving us recommendations of places all over the island.

Peaceful, clean rooms with a lovely host and pool!
We stayed here with our children (19 and 22) in late June. The building itself was very well kept and covered in beautiful flowers. The rooms were spotless (cleaned everyday) and the pool was large and very well maintained. Stelios was a wonderful host- very chatty and helpful with recommendations etc. His mischievous laugh made our holiday!

Good location and friendly staff
Away from the main town of Sami but just a short walk away, the location is very good for a quieter break. Staff are extremely helpful and rooms are spacious and clean.

appartamentino x tre persone piccolino ma funzionale e ben servito.Pulitissimo con cambio giornaliero di lenzuola e asciugamani. Vista mare e piscina, pure quella pulissima. Ambiente Silenzioso e gradevole. Il proprietario gentilissimo e sempre sorridente.Anche quando gli abbiamo combinato un guaio in cucina ha risolto tutto senza batter ciglio. Grande Stelios. L'unica cosa che mi sento di suggerire è mettere a disposizioneun paio di lavatrici, anche a gettone. Grazie per la splendida vacanza. La location è perfetta: vicino a Sami dove si può fare spesa e shopping e alle spiagge più famose di Antisamos e Myrtos. Ma in un un'ora si raggiunge praticamente ogni punto interessante della meravigliosa Cefalonia. Super consigliato.
