A very good hotel, if you understand correctly what awaits you.
First, perhaps, about what not to expect.
1. And most importantly. The hotel does not have a sandy beach. Yes, Ampula Beach is 150-200 meters away. But it is sand and pebble, and at the entrance to the water there will definitely be a pebble strip several meters wide. Probably, this is not a hindrance for an adult, but it is not very convenient for a small child (ours is 1.5 years old) to dig in the sand, and it will not work out carelessly running along the sand. Just walk carefully so as not to wind up on the pebbles.
2. The hotel is located on the outskirts of Tsilivi (the nearest tourist "center" of the island of Zakynthos). Accordingly, it is quiet and calm, but you can’t walk to a large number of shops, pubs, taverns and other entertainment on foot. (Within walking distance of a couple of taverns and shops).
3. The hotel is imprisoned for the British with kids, or at a retirement age. From this follows a very unobtrusive animation and the absence of discos and noisy razgulyaev.
4. Nobody speaks Russian. But strongly broken English is enough for eyes and ears.
What is there.
1. Very friendly staff. Reception, waiters, bartenders, maids - no questions asked. Always genuinely happy to help.
2. For adults - swimming from the pier (pier with steps) is excellent. You go down the stairs from the pier - there is sand under your feet. The water is clean and transparent.
3. Food - very decent. Absolutely no complaints. Both us and our 1.5-year-old son always had something to eat. True, he is an omnivore with us, and with the greatest pleasure
eat what you can't. But even without this, there is a lot of food and quite varied.
Summary of the hotel - a great place for a quiet holiday with children who do not need a large gently sloping sandy beach.
For the island as a whole.
If you want a cool sandy beach, you have to go to Vasilikos. The best beach (correction, taking into account the presence of small children! ) Is in Gerakas. Although there is no soul, which is a minus.
Tours around the island.
We were in Askos ("park" with animals). The kids will love it, most likely (ours liked it). Just keep in mind that there you will have to walk a little along such rocky paths.
Another excursion like "in search of turtles. " I think that children under 5 years old are better not to take. They get bored. It turns out such a boat trip with swimming in beautiful places.
Briefly everything. : )
