Zakynthos holiday HELP!!!?

Question

hi im booking a holiday and was told that zakynthos is lovely for couples. im looking for a nice quiet holiday for me and my boyfriend with nice sandy beaches and nice resturants with normal food and nice relaxing quiet bars?? can anybody help please..

Answer 1

Kalimaki in Zakynthos is the best!

Great for couples. me and my bf went there last September and had the most amazing holiday ever.

it was quiet, but busy if you wanted it to be on the main strip for nice bars that wasn't full of teenagers on a mission!

Great beaches, great restaurants, great people, what more could you want?

.. and also, lots of other things to go and see and do where you are there. Make sure you hire a car and explore the island as there are so many places to visit.

SOrry, i haven't heard of the hotel you mentioned.

Word of warning, don't go to Laganas!

Answer 2

Many or most places are lovely for couples in Greece, Zakynthos is only one of many, but definitely not the best. There are some very different places, traditional, lively, picturesque, basically whatever you want. Sandy beaches are also plentiful, the only thing I'm not sure about is what you mean by 'normal food'? Do you mean you don't want to try anything Greek? If that is the case stick to the larger resorts where you can get more International food, but that could mean it won't be quiet!

Add a note to your question so we can be more specific, because if food is an issue it will make a big difference to some of the answers you get!

Answer 3

Zakynthos is a beautiful place. I've been there three times now. It is not the pretiest of the Greek Ionian islands, but it is one of my favourites.

The people there seem so friendly and caring.

Also, I stayed at the Plessas Palace, and it is perfect for couples.

Not to far from some nice quite bars and lovely Greek traditional restaurants.

If you have not already been to Greece, or certainly Zante, I thoroughly recommend you hire a car or go on a few excursions. It is great fun and you learn a lot about the Island.

I cannot really rememeber because I did it some years back, but i remember going to this beautiful beach and hiring a pedalo and being able to get within a metre of the most magnificant sea turtles. Really was a great memory.

Anyway, Have a lovely time with your boyfriend, I'm sure youll both love it and want to return! I know I did!

Answer 4

many consider tsilivi as about the best resort with enough to do, nice beach but not too mad.

Answer 5

you should look 4 a hotel in argassi, can recomend windmill apartments, beach only small but ok, plenty to do there, good mix of restarants/pubs/clubs, recomend molly malones bar and crazy golf, tell cathleen graeme and lesley say hi,argassi also good base to see rest of isle, go and see the turtles, brilliant sight,

Answer 6

Zakynthos has amazing beaches, but not so picturesque villages.

You could also go to

1.Sifnos - Milos (don't stay at the port (Kamares) or at Apollonia on Sifnos, prefer Artemonas) or

2. Paros - Naxos (also avoid staying at the main town, go to naoussa on Paros and Plaka on Naxos) .

Answer 7

I think that Patmos would be a best solution for us.
