Diamantina, a piece of local history, is located just behind Agios Stephanos harbor, and is the first house built in the village in the 1800s. The present owner refurbished the house, which boasts a charming and cozy atmosphere. During the pool's construction, artefacts from 2,300 years ago were discovered, showing the area's continuous habitation since ancient times. Accessed by traditional Corfiot stone steps, the house has a charming walled courtyard, with a pool surrounded by roses, oleander and a mature willow. Agios Stephanos' shops, tavernas, and beach are right at your doorstep, making it an ideal spot for those who prefer to walk. Renting a small boat is recommended and can be moored just 100m from the house. Whether you're a summer sailor, history buff, or someone who loves a traditional town house, Diamantina is a unique and special place to stay.
