Where to stay in Alykes

Read the dreadful reviews after I’d booked the hotel for myself and 7 friends. I was so worried but pleasantly surprised when we got there. It was a cheap deal and we got what we paid for! Basic room but clean and comfortable bed. Very friendly staff in the hotel. Walking distance to beach and fabulous bars and restaurants. If you want to five star pay for it. This hotel was value for money and we...

The hotel is nicely located in the Alykanas part of Zante the pool is beautiful sadly water is cold so we went wrong time of year to enjoy it in October however was nice sitting round it there were no pool towels provided I was annoyed that they charge €10 per night for city tax as they call themselves 4 star it's less for 3 star AC and room safe are chargeable too which was weird to me No English...

Mixed reviews on this hotel, pool area was amazing with great staff who are very attentive, we had a waiter everyday who was great, but unfortunately didn’t get his name, hotel was very basic for a 4 star hotel, we had multiple issues with our room, with shower drain leaking across the bathroom, no shelves for toiletries, the shower was tiny and had a wire coming out of the wall, toilet seat broken...

Rooms were clean and towels changed regularly sheets not so much. But in Need of updating, Unless you paid more to update. We had a fabulous view if we had updated the rooms would overlook the hotel opposite or a road so we were happy with our room. The pool is amazing we'll worth staying for that. Food was very good freshly prepared and enough choice. Staff are very friendly. The only gripe was we...

The best place to stay. Would highly recommend the deluxe rooms. The pool was just amazing. The location great, as you have access to supermarkets and food restaurants in walking distance. Clean rooms and amazing stuff.

This is a nice hotel in a perfect location for souvenirs, restaurants and bars. The hotel has some amazing rooms with their own little pools outside. There were dour of us staying, me, my wife, and two daughters. When we arrived and was given our apartment, it was a bit disappointing. There were 3 beds in one room and another bed in the kitchen/dining area. We needed a double bed and the two singles...

This hotel is great the people are great lovely and cannot do enough to help you and make sure you have a nice holiday, I would love to go back, but unfortunately I have mobility issues, and the mattress are for me impossible for me to sleep on, and I am in pain because they are so uncomfortable. I will be returning to Alykes but in a different hotel .

We returned home today after a truly lovely holiday. On arrival, we were told our room was ready, even though it was an hour before check-in. The lovely receptionist suggested we put our bags in our room, unpack after lunch. We did exactly that. The food was wonderful! Ample choices for breakfast and lunch. Every day, the evening meal was a different theme. There was an area child height which we thought...

First,positives,food was nice,staff and cleaners were friendly,rooms were nice and comfortable aswell as cleaned well everyday,good location as the beach was just outside, beach was nice and warm,the lifeguards were nice,now the negatives, staff were unprofessional as they were no uniform and no name badges,the place was like a wasps nest as there was so many wasps attacking u,the pool was cold and...

We came to this hotel on 23/10/25 from good old yorkshire in England, it has been a brilliant experience, the beach is gorgeous and right by the hotel, the hotel is run very well, it's clean, spacious and the food is amazing with a wide variety of choice, the staff work so hard here. I think the negative reviews are very unfair and clearly wrote by picky people that look for fault in everything...

Home after another great holiday here. We had a lovely relaxing 4 week stay in Sept/Oct and nothing was going to stop that come rain, storms and earth tremor!🫢 Staff are so friendly and hard working and the chef and his team produced excellent, mainly Greek cuisine😋😋😋😋, if you a meat and two veg person this hotel is not for you. During our stay weather was very wet and caused the outside seating to...

Having read some of the poor reviews I was a little worried about coming here, but I needn't have been. The location could not be better; the place is spotlessly cleaned and the food is just fantastic. I think some of the previous reviewers who have slated this place just haven't travelled very much (or were expecting a UK-standard four star). But they're forgetting we're on a Greek island here....

We stayed in the 2 bedroomed loft room for a week. Efficiently run by the owner Elena, who you can keep in contact via WhatsApp and cleaned by the lovely Bruna. Good WiFi connection. Kettle, sandwich maker, large fridge freezer, cooker hob and the usual basic kitchen utensils. Comfy beds, we slept really well. Good restaurants nearby, beach 10 min walk, swimming pool across the road (you can use if...

Excellent position on the *****. Close to the beach and bars. No pool but we used the Letsos hotel pool which is just across a tiny road. We had the loft room which could sleep 6 but would be uncomfortable with 1 bathroom. One bedroom does have a slopped ceiling so you will bang your head every time you stand up at shorter end of the room. Kitchen could do with tea towels and cleaning cloth. Little...

2nd year running in these gorgeous little apartments! And they’ve spoilt us now for any other accommodation in the Greek islands which never seem to match it on trip advisor. Best bathroom we’ve ever encountered on the Islands. Lovely bright airy room. Hairdryer. Kettle. Sandwich toaster. Nice table and chairs and a clothes airier on balcony. Right above the restaurant but I used to love hearing the...

There was daily cleaning, the smart TV was great, the staff was nice, their confidentiality was almost too much. The kitchen could be normal, but it is very poorly equipped (no microwave, kitchen appliances, cutting knife, plate, dish, small glasses, kitchen equipment, etc.), 1 of the 3 air conditioners worked normally, 2 trash cans (August 2023).

Staying at the Thetis was a joy. Good communication with Elena who welcomed us and kept in contact with WhatsApp. The housekeeping was superb by our brilliant housekeeper Bruna. We will definitely be back. The restaurants nearby are also very good and the beach is a short walk away. Very friendly place

Alykes Park is a wonderful place to rest and relax surrounded by well-kept gardens, olive trees and singing birds. We spent two weeks here! IT was our dream Greek Vacation! We Agnieszka, Jadwiga and Renata recommend it to everyone!!!!

Just returned from an excellent stay here made special by the lovely family . Spotlessly clean nice and quiet a nice gesture of a melon and bunch of grapes left in my accommodation plus another bunch later in the week off owner brilliant, Planning to return next year.

Our second holiday staying in these lovely bungalows - everything you could wish for and more. Only minutes from the beach restaurants and bars but in such a tranquil setting. Bungalows are well equipped and the outside patio areas are private and thoughtfully planted making their own little oasis. Owned by a charming welcoming and friendly family who are happy to help in any way. We will certainly...

We were so happy with this stay in Zakynthos. The bungalow is perfect for a family's needs. It's clean, close to the beach, has a kitchen, and a patio, and it's quiet. I liked that they cleaned the room every day. My son became friends with the owner who took him on tour around the olive garden. He was so happy when he came back with fresh melons. Greek hospitality at its best. I highly recommend...

Apartment suited our needs very well and the beautiful olive trees opposite made the setting feel quite rural. Only minutes from all amenities and the beach this truly is an oasis of peace and quiet and somewhere we hope to return to. Thank you to everyone for the welcome and kindness shown during our stay.

Bungalow was clean and comfortable and all we needed was provided. Friendly and helpful hosts made us feel very welcome. There is a lovely garden area around the bungalows. The accommodation is conveniently positioned very close to shops, restaurants and the beach.

Pros: The location was perfect, as well as the pool and the views. Cons: The bathroom was too old and outdated, the beds were uncomfortable.

Excellent service, a very family hotel with all the comforts they need, it has a lot of space, clean, with incredible views, perfect for relaxing, it is a hotel that makes you feel at home, also the breakfast jam is made by themselves and it is really good . Thanks to Dimitri for all the service and kindness

The staff, as well as the facilities, were excellent. Clean rooms, amazing view, fresh and tasty breakfast, peaceful, and easily accessible. An unforgettable experience!!!

A quaint and old series of small buildings set in extensive grounds on the side of the hills overlooking Alykes town and beach. My granddaughter said on seeing it, "its mama mia. The rooms are very basic, one up one down where you could sleep 3 upstairs and one downstairs on a sofa bed and there is air conditioning. There are a lot of steps to contend with which might be a problem for some.There is...

Best place for relaxing. Food was great with a good menu for breakfast and excellent evening meals. Owners very friendly. Definitely go there again soon.

Such an amazing experience, the sights and sounds but mostly the wonderful people. Made us feel right at home and felt like a part of their wonderful family. Nestled in the beautiful surrounding hills, surrounded by nature, a perfect peaceful getaway just a short walk from the town and beachfront. Rooms were emaculate, the grounds were stunning with their grape vines and fruit trees, as were the views...

In our opinion the hotel is not a four star however its a good 3+. The reception area and bar is pleasant and welcoming and the staff are very accommodating. Our room was tried and in need of modernisation the bathroom is very small with a shower over the bath not the best as personnel preference would be a shower only but the room did have a sea view and balcony. We had a problem with the toilet not...

We love this place. The beach is a stone throw away. Gently sloping into the warm water. Good location for the bars and restaurants. Honestly cannot say a bad word about this place.

Just returned from a 10 day holiday .Stayed in the new block so can't comment on the old appartments. New rooms great and the pool.in front was never too busy ,unlike the other pools.The best part about this hotel is the location, perfect for famillies.The beach is a stones throw and the local restaurants and bars are a 5 min walk if that . Shops etc...all close by .The bus stop into Zante old town...

Basic but clean and comfortable room. Lovely pools with plenty of space, never a struggle to get sun beds. Brilliant location on the beach, it’s with a walk to alkyes for pretty restaurants by the sea. Lots of choice for breakfast. The hotel surroundings are beautiful and well maintained. Only improvement would be more facilities in the room for making and eating lunch. No plates, cutlery etc. we...

After reading a number of the reviews it put a real downer on us coming to this hotel as we were worried we’d spent and worked hard for something that was going to be a disappointment. Well, what I can say is we have not had that experience and it’s been lovely! It’s not 5* but I’d imagine the 4* is for the facilities on offer over the room quality. The rooms are fine however, spacious with smart...

Initially given the wrong rooms and staff did nothing to resolve which was DISGRACEFUL. Ended up with three adults sharing one room and I slept on some kind of bench bed which was horrendously uncomfortable and got no sleep. After our 3rd/4th attempt they finally gave us the rooms we had actually paid for the next day, but we had to move everything ourselves. Rooms are basic and in need of some minor...

The Koukiunaria Hotel and Suites was a great find in Alykes. It’s up a short track off the road and close to the sandy beach. It has a beautiful pool with ample sunbeds for all. The large pool is surrounded by well kept gardens and has a good pool bar serving drinks and food. You can relax here in a peaceful setting away from the noise and bustle from the road. The rooms are modern, clean and bright...

Hotel Me and my partner had the best time visiting the hotel. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful and attentive. Our room was great, really clean and high spec with the most amazing views. The food was delicious, so much choice and great quality. All of the facilities were lovely, the pools were clean, well kept and great sizes, again with amazing views. Really close to the town and beach...

Just back from a beautiful week with our daughter and son in law. Hotel very nice, excellent cleaning staff, towels changed every day almost, and rooms and beds attended to daily. We had two Chic Rooms, one had a large balcony, Pool view, mountains.but room was a bit small, room 118. Our daughters room 117 larger, small balcony and end of block, road view. The lovely Ruth on reception with her consistent...

Great location within walking distance of restaurants, bars and the beach (10 mins). Property is a little dated and the room felt quite small.

Nice location close to the bach, approx 400m. We had “chic” room. Mini fridge in it (loud). Planty of spaces to hang your clothes but very limited cupboard. Air con worked but placed bad, since it went directly to the bed. And without room-key does not work, so expect hot rooms. At night (not hotel’s fault of course) so loud animals around, difficult for light sleepers. Walls are paper-thin, we had...

This was a lovely comfortable hotel, rooms ate basic, the pool was great. Good size; loads of beds. The breakfast was basic but …the lunch poolside restaurant has the best tasting food for lunch and great chef and great value for money. Evening food in other restaurant was very poor. Great staff all round - bar staff especially. Very happy, helpful and pleasant. Town and beach only 5mins walk -...

Our rooms were large enough and clean. The cleaner does a first class job. There was a 3rd bed in the room that blocked the use of the wardrobe and was there in place of any other storage item. There was 2 of us but we had no room for our stuff and had to live out of a suitcase. Had There been a 3rd person with us, then things would have been all over the floor. The rooms on the top floor were very...

These family run studios are so so nice - we have been a few times now and cant wait to be back - they are spotless and all you want and within easy walking distance to the beach and restaurants- there are always plenty of sunbeds and parking over the road if you hire a car - Vaso and her family are lovely she’s nearly always there to welcome you and there when you leave - Angelos runs the bar - what...

Called here one evening for food as we were late going out and it was near our accommodation. Wish we'd come before as the food was delicious + very reasonably priced. My husband had the Greek Salad + I had a Burger Wrap. Big portions + very tasty. Pity it was at the end of our holiday otherwise we'd have been back for more.

We arrived quite late on Saturday night and manageress was there to greet us. We had a couple of minor issues with room but staff couldn’t have been more helpful, friendly and nothing too much trouble. Icing on the cake was requesting a couple of wine glasses for room and they arrived along with a chilled complimentary bottle of wine to “refresh” the glasses. What a lovely gesture. Place is spotlessly...

Just got back from Giannis studios ,we had an amazing stay ,all the staff are amazing very friendly and welcoming,The food at the hotel was top notch and very fairly priced .the hotel is a 5-10 min walk from the beach and centre .very peaceful and for 20 euro you can hire a moped and see the island and all it beauty .

I have just returned from a 2 week stay at Giannis and can honestly say that it was a thoroughly enjoyable stay The complex and rooms were spotless and nothing was too much trouble from Angelo the bar manager and Vaso the complex manager.It was my wifes birthday during our stay and she was treated to a great party. Giannis is only a 10 minute walk form the centre of town and beach so vey central.If...

Just had a 7 night stay here ... what can I say ... such a beautiful place in the perfect location , fantastic hosts that make you feel so welcome and at home from the minute you arrive , nothing is too much trouble! Fantastic and will definitely be returning

The host is really nice and polite. The room was really clean and comfortable. The place is so close to the beach that you should only walk some steps to arrive There's a supermarket less than 50 metres away and lots of restaurants and bars close to it.

Today we returned from a super vacation in Alykes, Zakynthos. We stayed 10 days at Kanela and wholeheartedly recommend this location. We were a group of 8 people, adults and children, we had 4 rooms, with balcony or terrace, private bathroom with shower, air conditioning and a wonderful decor made by the owners. The cafe / bar offers a wide range of coffees / cocktails as well as food. Vietnamese coffee...

Great location, lovely host and staff. 5 seconds from the beach, Everything hand made. Had the perfect stay at kanela studios 👍🏿

We are a family with 2 years old toddler. It was perfect place for vacation! super cosy, clean, child friendly. Our room was the one with terrace and it definitely enriched the experience because we used to enjoy there a lot .... playing with our son, eating amazing salads made by Marios. The sea is just few steps from Kanela and Marios may give you the umbrella. Kanela makes big difference among other...

try it you will be happy . spoiler if you go there you can find me at the indian resturant next to it
