Nice hotel but inland from the sea front
The hotel is nice but about 1 Klm inland form the sea front. Diafani is a really small village and it would have been better to stay on the sea front The hotel owner was nice but tried to sell us extra night at the hotel when we were going to Pigadia

A fortnight in Diafani
Very friendly family-run hotel. Mr and Mrs Balaskas are extremely welcoming. They are full of ideas for walks, swims, boat trips and places to eat. Diafani is enchanting and very unspoiled by tourism while at the same time being well-equipped for it. One thing future visitors need to bear in mind is that there is no cash dispenser in Diafani so you need to make sure you have enough cash on you as it is an hour's boat journey to the nearest ATM!

Siamo stati una settimana presso l'hotel gestito a conduzione familiare. L'accoglienza è stata buona. La signora è molto gentile, disponibile e premurosa. La camera era pulita, con il necessario per il pernottamento. Consiglio di soggiornare presso io Balaskas hotel per poter apprezzare la tipica accoglienza greca.
