Caretta Paradise Resort & WaterPark in Tragaki

Stayed here as a family for a week and whist I am happy we got our money's worth and it was decent value, there are a few details i believe the hotel could do which would have made our stay 5 Star. Firstly cannot fault Jet2, from booking the holiday originally, we were kept up-to-date including check ins, and when it came to the airport there was staff on both sides that kept us informed and were very friendly, ensuring we were on the right path to the transfers and having local information for them. I also got a text with emergency details and there was a rep on site several days to help anyone. The rooms were great, highly recommend block U if can btw, very clean and well maintained. We had a swim up room and it was amazing, i would fully recommend it to anyone looking to book a holiday as it really made a difference when you could have a quiet swim first thing in the morning by yourself. Plenty of space and extra blankets in the cupboards, there was a kettle with cups but no tea bags/coffee if anyone wanted to bring their own and the mini fridge was very powerful. Beds are comfy and changed fairly often with towels being changed every day or so too. The facilities were great, the waterpark was great and the staff looking after the slides were funny and friendly but were quick to ensure kids were always safe and kept a good eye on the younger ones/armbands etc The restaurants were great, usual stuff at breakfast and plenty of it including fresh crepes which were wonderful. Dinners were great in the main restaurants, usual stuff again but plenty of choice and staff were very friendly and place was clean. Location of the hotel is great, there are 2 shops right outside which offer all the extra stuff for your room/presents home. There’s a chemist and there’s several bars and restaurants around the hotel too with lovely people working there. The beach is close too, although there’s a steep hill to walk back up, it’s not a sandy beach for building sandcastles, but the sea is sandy with lots of space before it gets too deep with small occasional fish. The bella restaurant pizza was amazing, as was the food in Rice & spice, and the food in the Al la carte restaurant was lovely too, and the staff in all these places were amazing too. Check out is 11, which is fair but 60 euros if you want to keep the room for a late check out, however, there is a room with showers/toilets/juices and plenty of space for luggage and your wristband is still including for using the hotel once you’ve checked out. The entertainment at night was varied but mainly aimed at families which was great, we only went twice but staff were great at trying to get kids involved at games/dances etc Cons, Apart from the 2 larger restaurants, the others all have to be booked at least a day in advance and you'll usually get a later time, this is only in the small print and you can only book it by going to the main restaurant during their opening times. I wouldn't normally have

We rode the Zakynthos Brevet and our stay at the Caretta was amazing. The rooms were spacious and spotless. The food was delish and best of all the staff was super friendly and helpful. I would gladly recommend to friends,

Oh what a brilliant holidays! Great family hotel with plenty to do for any ages. Great facilities, good food, especially asian restaurants. Very clean, very pleasant, highly recommended. Nothing beats evenings entertainment provided by Zizou- so much laughter, dancing, singing and bingo prizes (we won twice!!!). Great day trips in different places in very decent prices in English and Polish. Seriously such a good holibobs, plenty to do, even when the weather is not the best.
