The shipwreck is a bit disappointing when you get there, but if you go on the blue dolphin, it is a small fast boat which was great fun.

Yanni's horse riding was fun, but very hot 15 euro's for 1 hour
 
Turtle - not guarnteed to see one, my friend was lucky and did see one, apparently they come to the surface every 40 minutes for air......
 
The horse and cart rides in the evening are a pleasant way to get to the next village 10 euro's
 
Appollo and lavante restaurants are the best we found.
 
Flame bar is a must, Romeo is the star flirts with all the girls...lol
 
Train ride to taverna inland can be fun if a crowd go, you visit a museum, go in a church and have a drink in the taverna and laugh all the way back...lol

These apartments are the best, 2nd time to Alykanas, 1st time here, will def go again, if we can get booked when we try...

no fighting for sunbeds by pool, small shop opposite for basic needs, beach short stroll.
 
Hosts, pavlos, karen and young vicki are great, make you feel really welcome,
 
Rooms comfortable, basic equipment but adequate for cups of tea and lunch.
 
Air conditioning  7 euros per day, we used it but, are wondering whether it was necessary. 
I really really miss it, cant wait to go back again and see everybody .......

Hi, going to White House Studios first 2 weeks in Sep never been to Zante before any suggestions on trips we should try out.

Sue H

Hi Margaret - thanks for the info - very helpful.  Must be good if that is your fourth time.  We will let you know how we get on next year. We have been to Alakanas before and also Alykes and love both places.  It will soon come round.  Sue

Margaret F          10/10

Hi Sue just returned from Whitehouse  Studios our fourth time  Pavlos and Karen are lovely people and will make your stay magical. the studios have a fridge, kettle . toaster pots and pans knifes and forks etc and a new edition this year tv. Have a great holiday i know you will let us know how you get on Margaret and John

Sue H

Just out of curiosity can anyone tell me if there is a kettle in the studios We have just booked for May next year and are really looking forward to it.  Sounds a great place!

Ann A          10/10

Superb! Pavlos, Karen & little Vicky are perfect hosts.  Spotlessly clean studios, bar and lovely walk-in pool.  Friendly maid came most days, regular changes of sheets & towels.  Air-con available and essential at 7e per day.  In room safe box also for small charge. Lovely poolside snacks.  Everything was just-so but still managed to feel informal and relaxed.  Can fully understand why they get booked up early. 

Margaret F          10/10

Hi look forward to seeing you both on the 8th we cannt wait to get back there its a fantastic place and we missed it last year and agree with you Pavlos & Karen are brill people

Jill & Pete

Nina F

Hi. Thanks for that.  Have now managed to book for next year.  Apparently problem with accessing First Choice bookings on internet is due to the marriage of First Choice and Thomson.  We made our booking over the phone.  The countdown begins.

Cathy W          10/10

Hi Wendy - these apartments are through First Choice and if you want to book you have to get in quick. When we stay there we book immediately we return for the following year. 

Daniel - I think the apartments you are talking about the The Venus.  This year they are not with a British company.  Hope this helps.
 

Wendy S          10/10

You will love your time at the whitehouse very friendly people we are trying to book there ourselves but cannot find a package, if anyone kows how to get in touch with pavlo direct on email or phone can you please let me know.
 
Fantastic place

Cathy W          10/10

Hi Wendy

Glad you enjoyed your time at White House.  Have stayed there many times and were there for Marg & Jons wedding and their wedding anniversaries.
Unfortunately you can't book these apartments direct you have to go through First Choice.
In just over two weeks we will be in the resort but not at White House this time.
Cathy

  We visited the Whitehouse Studios last week which was 20/05/2007 for 1 week we went to the Bonkers Bar were we met Pavlos and Karen , We had a fantastic time they made us really welcome we were able to use the pool as well, even though we didnt stay on their complex.  We are trying to book direct though does anyone have their email address or any other form of contact for them, we met some lovely people all of whom which are staying a whole month at the apatments. They are so lovely if we had known we would of like it we would of booked 2 weeks.  What a Fab Family nothing was to much trouble.  Pavlos if you are reading this we are the ones you gave the orange teeshirt too on Saturday after lots of pestering.  which looks lovely by the way.  Take care thanks for making our holiday great see you soon.  Keith and Wendy Stuckey

Ian D          10/10

Sorry Pavlos and Karen but Mrs D. has booked Aug 2007 , May 2008 and Aug 2008 so you had better get another Pina Colada cocktail shaker bought. If Chelle and Andy read this then "See you at the wedding in lovely little Moffat next month".

Ann H

Does anyone have the number for Karen and Pavlo at White house Studios so we can book independently?  Please email AHenderson@northumberland.gov.uk.  Thanks

Sue K

Thanks to this website, I am in contact with Karen and Pavlos!!!!!
 
 

Cathy W           

These apartments are opposite the entrance to Alykanas Beach Village.  Bonkers Bar is at the front of them.  They are the two blocks of apartments behind the swimming pool.  If you need any further information about them please ask.

Ian D           

Just back from Whitehouse - missing it already - booked for next year while we were there - really surprised the travel agent  who asked " Is it nice there then" ???  If Karen's brother Neil reads this then say Hi to Pavlos,Karen and Viki when you see them in Oct from Ian and Mitch.

Kevin G           

Our stay at the Whitehouse was great Karen&Pavlos are a really nice couple certainly will make an effort to return in the future

I went to Alykanas in august, my first trip aboard to a hot country and i loved every minute of it! I stayed at white house studios and the food was lush, and me being to addicted  chicken burgers was very happy that they served them! And they where very good too!  I really enjoyed my stay and hope to return soon! I would recomend bars such as the Jam-ing bar and the Iguana bar! And too get something to eat, the Greedy Greeks was amazing, especially on greek nights! I would recomend it to anyone...

Caroline            

   im sorry laura , i thought holidays were all about having fun and a laugh ( let yourself go!) and if you want somewhere quiet , try somewhere that bans under 18s. do you expect kids to be quiet on holiday . I DONT THINK SO! MOST people come on holiday to have a laugh and chill out but i suppose some miserable people arent like that, thats what holidays are for , maybe next time don't go on holiday , that will save you moaning about something which is perfectly normal to do on holiday

Scott T           

We stayed at the Alykanas Village Apartments but we were never out of Bonkers Bar. It was the best bar in Alykanas by a mile. Karen And Pavlos were fantastic hosts and nothing was too much trouble,even when we kept Pavlos up late by being last out of the bar !!! The food,breakfast and snacks,were excellent and very good value for money.

We will definately be back to Zante and would go to the White House next time. I would recommend this bar to anyone going to Zante.
 
If Pavlos or Karen read this then best wishes from Big Scotty, Big Kev, Denise, Carole, Sammy G, Wee Kev and Wee Mike....................it's 3pm......................MAGNERS Time !!
 
Soon be 11pm................Cocktail Time !!!.........(Except Big Kevs Captain Morgan Spiced Rum !!!)

Phil S

I was wondering if any one has Karen or Pavlos phone number as I need some info from them, or if any one can help me now, what I want is the greek spelling for AMANDA and JASMINE, as these are my wife and daughters name and them being of greek traditional names I want to get them tattooed, I would really appreciate any help indead, cheers, and any who is staying at the studios, from expireince its absolutely fantastic.

Marg F           

Hi Kevin,

think you might be there now, you lucky people say hi to Pavlos, Karen and viki,for us, you will have a fantastic time they are brill people wish we were there with you now  ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kevin G

A hi we are going to stay at the white house 8/8/06 just wondering what to expect all seems very favourable any comments

Laura            

These are great apartments!  The location is unbeatable for the beach and also the tavernas.  The apartments are kept spotless and you can also pay for air-con - a blessing!

 The pool areas is lovely too.  My only disappointment was that they had been advertised by First Choice as ideal for couples.  This would have been the case if you are a couple who likes to sit next to the pool when it has been totally overtaken by rowdy  screeching kids who should have been at school during term-time!  A shame, because if it had been quieter I could have had the perfect holiday - as it was, I felt I had to go to the beach just for some peace and quiet!  Apart from that, would recommend highly...

Neil L           

Hiya Sis , Pavlo and Viki

Don't know if you look at these coments hello if you do .
I will try and get over to see you in October after I have run the Cardiff Marathon .
It will be a good rest for me after all the training and the weather should be pleasant still .
Take care and keep the punters happy ( they all seem Very happy anyway)
See you soon your brother

Jill C           

Can't actually comment yet as Pete and I will be arriving (for the first time) on Sunday 9/7. From all the comments I've read it sounds like a friendly super place and we both look forward to greeting new friends.

See you soon
Jill & Pete Choules

click to enlargeHi Cathy, with ref to what i said on the the alykanas board the browser button for pics is on the Whitehouse Studios  site. Here we all are

Cathy W           

Hi Laura

Yes you're right there are a lot of us who return year after year.  Yes, it is as good as it sounds.  When are you going?  We will be there from 4th July for 2 weeks (for the 4th time) along with several other returners.
The apartments have everything you could need and are spotlessly clean.  I'm told that the apartments also have t.v. this year. Pavlos takes great pride in his pool and again this is spotless.
The bar (Bonkers Bar) is a great place to end the evening and the food during the day is reasonably priced and very good.
The apartments are in a great location.  Only a few minutes walk from the wonderful beach in one direction and a few minutes stroll to the main street. where you'll find loads of restaurants and bars. 
You also have the added advantage of being within easy reach, either by horse and carriage, or on foot from Alykes where there are more good restaurants and bars. 
Pavlos and Karen are great and will do everything they can to make sure your stay is one to be remembered, or not depending on how much you drink!!!!!!
Phil & I have made so many friends there, both holiday makers and locals and regard it as our second home. 
Hopefully we'll see you there, if not have a great holiday, I'm sure you will.

Hi Brian.
its First Choice hope this helps

Brian O

Can you please let me know the tour operator for White House Studios' Alikanas, Zante. Thanks

Alan T           

Hi Margaret, I was given this onfo from First Choice Head Office when i could not believe price i was being quoted for next year. But it was because i was including a child.
Alan

Cathy W           

hi everyone.

phil & i have just returned from another great week in alykanas.  pavlos, karen & viki are all fine (once they got over the shock of seeing us).  the resort was very quiet but that was great because it meant people had time to sit and chat. can't wait until we return.
love to you all.

Hi Alan,
had not heard it was an adult venue when did you hear this? We are going back on the 9th July 2006  for our 2nd wedding anniversary
 

Alan T           

Morning Karen or Pavlos,

dont know if you access this site at all,but we have just enquired about booking for next year and have been given a ridiculous price. When i enquired i have been told we will have to pay adult price for Jack as the Whitehouse has become an adult only location.
Is this right?
 
Alan, Sue & Jack (Portsmouth)  

Alan T           

Thanks to Pavlos, Karen and Vicky for a lovely holiday.

Hope to see you again.
Alan, Sue and Jack (Portsmouth)

Linda T           

Hi to you all (easier to type that than everyones names)

We truely had a wonderful holiday and got on so well with all you returnies (if such a word exsists)
Margaret we both hope your knee is on the mend and you'll be able to visit some of the places
you wanted to this year, Although we think Pavlos should hire the wheelchair for us all to use
during some of the heavy nights at the bar at least that way we wouldn't wall bounce on the way to the rooms.
We may have been able to make the 4th ourselves had we checked this site first but not to worry it will be great to see you all again next year.
Hoping you all have a brill year and see you for a drink or two in alykanas
 
  
     lots of love
   Lin and Kev xx 

John F           

 
Hi Lin & Kev

Hi Bev,
lovely to meet you all, we agree with all you said Pavlos, Karen and viki  were brill as usual and more so when i hurt my knee, they were so helpful. Great to see friends from last year Gary Lorraine, Cathy Phil, Fiona Barry and girls and new friends Lin & Kev. As soon as we got home we booked for next year 9th July for two gloriious weeks cannt wait. John is buying me flipflops with suckers on so i dont slip over again!!! LOL
love margaret & John xx

Bev H           

we have just returned from yet another fantastic holiday at the white house studios. karen and pavlos were first class hosts, and kept us entertained the whole time, i think pavlos gets a little more british every year - this year he thought he was robin hood.  john & margaret it was lovely to meet you both and be able to put faces to names, hope you had a wonderful 1st wedding anniversary and that, margaret, your knee has improved,  hope to return again next year.  pavlos & karen your litle girl is a credit to you both and we wish you both (karen and viki) a happy birthday!!!.  pavlos have you shot that cockerell yet!!!  c**k a doodle dooooooo.
