Jan 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Villa Diamond, ein Diamant am "Argolischen Golf" Ein sehr schönes, gut geplantes Objekt. Die Schlafzimmer sind mit guten Betten ausgestattet. Es iost ausreichend Platz für 10 Personen. Der morgendliche Blick auf´s Merr ist gigantisch. Man fühlt sich wohl und hat Platz. Es gvibt einen Pool und eine Außenbar mit hinterliegendem Grillplatz. Wir waren im Dezember bis zum 03. Januar mit 6 Erwachsenen und 5 Kindern dort. Es gibt in der Nähe mehrere Orte mit guten Tavernen aber im Haus ist auch eine gut ausgestattete Küche. Alles in allem war es ein super Urlaub in einem außergewöhnlich schönen Haus in einer tollen Gegend. Eine kleine Kritik kann ich mir aber nicht ersparen: Die Toiletten sind alle überholungsbedürftig. Das Wasser läuft durch, die Toilettensitze sind nicht fest und teilweise defekt. Ist halt immer noch Griechenland. Es lohnt sich dorthin zu fahren aber den Preis im Sommer würde ich nicht bezahlen. ##### Michael M. Stayed 9 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Oliver A.

May 6, 2019 #### A True Gem! Villa Diamond is an amazing property in a convenient location to both Porto Heli and Ermioni by car. Both are charming seaside holiday towns with excellent restaurants, bars, and shops. The house itself is large, spacious, beautifully designed, and has a perfect uninterrupted view of the sea from almost anywhere you stand. The kitchen had all the necessary amenities and our family of 10 cooked and ate in many of the nights during our stay. The huge charcoal grill and outdoor bar added to the fun. The neighborhood itself appears to be in the building stage. Roads are unpaved and houses are sporadic. Nothing inconvenient about it at all, but worth knowing you aren't staying in a development or easy walk from town. The absence of too many neighbors allows you to hear the gentle sound of the waves from the house. This house is part of a group of 4 owned by Mr. Balabanis that are nearly attached to each other, and Villa Diamond appears to have the perfect view of the ocean. There are tiki umbrellas and lounge chairs reserved for each house at the beach, which has beautiful clear water. The house came with a 2 person tandem ocean kayak,but only one paddle. It can still be maneuvered with the one paddle so we took it out and enjoyed the view looking back from the water. The driveway has a gate as well for added safety. It is worth noting that the pool and hot tub at this property are not heated. We did not stay during true beach season and one of the major reasons we chose Villa Diamond was the listing saying heated pool and hot tub. We figured if the ocean water wasn't quite warm enough to swim we would be able to soak in the hot tub. Unfortunately, we had to wait until the sun warmed us up to get in the water and it was more of a jump in and out cool off. The groundskeeper, Mr. Gassi, tried several times to see about heating the water, but it appears it is not capable. It is also worth noting the house does not come with a boat despite it being on the listing. Not a deal breaker for us, but worth noting for other guests. Guests should also note 2 showers are stand-up and 2 require using the hand wand. Mr. Gassi comes to the house every day to clean the pool, landscape, and do general maintenance. He is a very nice, accommodating man and even grilled dinner for us one night. This may have been to compensate for the unheated pool. You will see him almost ever day, but he'll work quietly if you tell him someone is sleeping. Overall a gem of a house! ##### Samuel M. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Agnese V. Jun 1, 2018 #### Absolutely stunning villa by the beach We love travelling and have stayed in many places/villas over the past few years and Villa Diamond so far has been the best villa experience we have had so far. Firstly, the villa itself is in a fantastic location, close to Porto Cheli yet in a quite place to relax away from the tourist crowds. Secondly, the views are stunning as it is just a stone throw away from a lovely beach. Thirdly, the villa itself is very spacious and has a very cosy vibe and clever layout. Every little detail has been thought after. The pool was also amazing! We stayed with 2 kids and they spent most of the time in the pool. The owner also provided us with inflatables which were a big hit with the kids as well as adults :) Overall it was an unforgettable experience and we will definitely come back again! 5 star experience! Thank you! ##### Agnese V.
