The beach is absolutely fantastic in terms of cleanliness. The service provided is exceptionally quick, and all the staff members are incredibly friendly and supportive. Although we stumbled upon this beach on the final day of our vacation, we are definitely planning to return next year. The food available at the beach is delightful, and the prices are quite reasonable. Moreover, this beach is perfect for families with children.

Paralia Diakoptou II

The beach was absolutely stunning and the holiday home had an incredible view of the sea coast. It was incredibly cozy for our family of two adults and three children. We had the entire second floor to ourselves, which included a kitchen, living room, two bedrooms, a bathroom, and two balconies. One balcony overlooked the garden and mountains, while the other was perfect for enjoying evenings with a glass of wine and admiring the sea. We never actually met the hostess, but we communicated with her through Booking and SMS. When we arrived, we found the key that she had left for us in a designated spot and returned it there when we left. We have no complaints at all. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed for everyday life, and there was even an abundance of supplies. The beach in this area was not crowded, and its close proximity to the shore often tempted me to go for a nighttime swim in the Corinthian Gulf.
