I have traveled all over the world to over thirty countries and I have never come across a place as special as diamanti studios. It is truly magical. We were greeted by husband and wife Spiros and Diamanti and their beautiful daughter Maria. The setting is on a small family farm with goats and bountiful olive trees and fruit trees. We stayed in two studios on the second floor of a two floor building that has four studios on top and I believe four on the bottom. We had number 3 and 4 and I highly recommend these two because they can also be adjoining if you want. The terraces are private and unbelievable- looking out at the olive grove and the beautiful castle. While all of this is magical, the real magic is in the way we were treated by the family and how much they cared for us while we were there. Diamnti and Spiros have a restaurant that is open all day and night- she makes everything home made with ingredients from the farm. We had delicious cheese pies with feta, homemade baklava, roasted chicken, and sardines to name a few. Also an amazing bean salad. The restaurant looks out on the pool which was also fantastic.
Diamanti also makes special tea from the garden. The whole family works so hard yet they always have a smile on their face and make time to chat and share their beautiful culture with others. We really appreciated this. We did not feel like a number here. They made us feel like family and we will never forget that.
Diamanti and Spiros even sell a lot of their products so on the last night we bought jams, olives, tea and olive oil and they wrapped them up with so much care.
Being at this place was truly one of the best experiences of my life- you can feel their goodness just radiating around them!
I read the other reviews on this place and I know that some people felt it was negative that it is a little bit outside of the town center and they felt isolated. To all the people that are thinking of coming here and aren’t sure if that’s a problem- I’m here to tell you it is truly only a ten minute walk and it’s a beautiful walk. It is an advantage to be ten minutes outside- not a disadvantage. I think this is the best place to stay in Molyvos, or maybe all of Lesvos. If you want to be treated like family and not like a tourist or just a number, come here and have a magical experience you will never forget.
Thank you Diamanti Studios! We love you you miss you!!!!
