The Alykanas Beach Aparthotel at Zakynthos for two weeks. This was our fifth time to the same place and for the last three years we have had the same room, by request. The staff are amazing and always remember you from the previous years. The accommodation is really clean and has everything on hand. Our teenage daughter (14 now) still loves it and has always made friends. The pools are immaculately clean as is the rest of the accommodation. The maids are out cleaning the pool area every morning, very early, and the whole place is beautiful.
The beach is within spitting distance - literally - and you can be sunbathing by the pool whilst watching the kids having fun in the sea.
We are booked to go again this summer, with some friends, and we cant wait to be back there to see all of our friends.

This hotel is very nice and very pretty.
It has 2 swimming pools and in the week we were there we only had a problem with not being able to get sunbeds on one occasion on our second to last day, but we found a gorgeous beach-side pool bar to spend our last full day at and that actually made our holiday!
As we went in August it was SCORCHING hot and our apartment did not have air conditioning. It was completely unbearable in the room without air con, so we asked at reception if we could switch to a room with air con and she said we had to wait until the sunday (2days later) as the hotel was fully booked and we could be moved. This did happen and it was 100% more pleasent in this room with air con.
The breakfast was nice, usual food you would expect. Always filled us up until late afternoon and then we’d have a small snack or ice cream.
All in all the hotel was great, we never stay in the same place twice (we like visiting different places) but if we had to, we’d definitely stay here again.
