Hi,

Please can anyone help?
We visited the Amarylis apartment/pool bar back in 2003 and wondered has anything changed.
Please can anyone tell me the price of meals in Tsilivi and the prices for drinks in Tsilivi and the Amarylis pool bar ie: Gin & tonic/ cocktails/  and anything else that might have changed.
Thanks in andvance Lynne

Hi, Just returned from Tsilivi and had a lovely time.

We had to move rooms on the second day due to a plumbing problem, but were rewarded with a case of beer, followed by two cartons of pure juice,followed (the next day) by fruit shoots for the kids,followed(the following day) by more fruit shoots!
The Staff were lovely even with the language barrier.
The lady in reception adored the children and found my grandson amusing even when we did not!
Maybe it was because we went as a close, extended family unit with such a large age range, but we felt totally accepted by all in the hotel....AND...we didn't eat once at Anna's and she was lovely.
I chose to cook in the apartment most of the time (no mean feat for 3 adults, 3 teenagers, 1 9yr old and a baby) but if you're prepared to put in the effort, well worth it! The local produce is excellent! I miss the bacon and the Feta!
Give the Amarylis a go, it is well worth it, we will be back!
Oh, by the way, Tsilivi is beautifull, too

Anna, Nikos, Ioseph and Louis were the best hosts ever, considering there was 21 of us. Thanks Nikos for taking us out to see the island and thanks Anna and Ioseph fot the wonderful food and last but not least thanks Louis for serving us our drinks of which there were plenty and for putting up with us all..

Stayed at amarylis apartments June 2009,   was a little aprehensive after reading the reviews.  But I was pleasantly surprised,  rooms are basic but you get what you pay for,   it was ok for us as how much time would you spend in your room.    Anna who runs the snack / pool bar and her sons Joseph and Louis were fantastic,  brilliant with our boys,  nothing was too much trouble.  Will defo go back in a couple of years.  Would recommend just for anna,  the pool (was cleaned by her husband every night) very clean and her sons.  Excellent holiday in Tsilivi,  excellent location for the beach, restaurants.

 HI LESLEY NO APPARENTLY IT WAS A GROUP OF BOYS ALOT OF THEM WHO WERE RUDE NOT A FAMILY ....... GIVING MANAGER GRIEF THEY WERE JUMPIN THE BALCONYC DURING THE NIGHT

Returned from this accommodation on 2nd Oct08.Will not go again. I have stayed at 3 other hotels/apartments in Silivi Phoenix beach Gorgio 2 and Mavrikos.my complaint with the Amarylis was that I had no hot water at any time throughout my weeks stay.It was impossible to complain as the lady could not speak or understand English and my Greek is worse.The towel (yes just one) was changed twice in the week.I was on the first floor and above me there was what sounded like a herd of Buffalo runing around later in the night when they returned.Otherwise clean, good location, nice pool, bur the negatives outwieghed the positives for me.

Paul H          10/10

just come back from 2 weeks holiday at the amaryllis the pool bar staff anna nikos lewis and joesph were the nicest people ever the rooms were really spacious and good advise anyone to go there the food in the pool bar is lovely and the pool is really clean no complaints the air conditioning is really needed which is 50 euros per week cleaners were always round brilliant holiday

Lesley C

Hi Andrea we are the lot that were there the week before you. The problem was we asked for a second key to one of our rooms and the manager wouldn't give us one so he had to let us in one night really late.The next night when we had to ask him to let us in again he finally let us have another key charging us 20 euros.which was non returnable. There wasn't any trouble with all 14 of us except that. We drank in the pool bar with Anna every night. So there can't have been any problems. I would never stay there again due to the attitude of the manager and his wife it was disgusting. In one room there were four  people aged between 18 and 62 they were never all going to go back to there room together and still would not provide a second key. Absolutely rediculous. Otherwise a brilliant holiday. We have stayed in Tsilivi before and had a great time. Would not stay at the Amarylis again.  

Vicky W          10/10

That sounds like the Anna I know. Her husband nikos gave us a lift upto manos grill one night because we had a bad storm and it was pouring down, we asked her to ring a taxi but Nikos said 'no taxi, I give you lift'. Such a lovely family. I have heard a few comments about the owner and his mother, they didnt bother us to be honest but we just stayed clear of them. Hey, we might see you next year cos were hoping to go out next June too.

Linda O          10/10

Hello Vicky,

 
We really enjoyed the Amarylus and as you can see we are taking the whole family back next year. To be honest I did not like the manager or his mother (re previous post) but got on great with Anna and her lovely family, she was lovely, she even let my 7 year old grandson eat his macdonalds in her restaurant as I think he got fed up with us trying to make him eat greek food all the time. We had a great time and were really looking forward to seeing Anna and the family next June.

Vicky W          10/10

Linda.... So glad you seem to have liked the Amaryllis, I remember speaking to you early last year before your visit to the Amaryllis.... We are hoping to go back to Tsilivi next year, money depending!!

Linda O

We will be there from the 14th June till the 28th so we will still be there for the couple of days of your holiday, like I say there will be 18 of us but I promise we won't be noisy and spoil anyones holiday, we will just take up all the sunbeds everyday ha ha, I know you will enjoy yourself. Take no notice of the posts on here about Anna and the sunbeds, as long as you don't take your own food and drink round the pool everything will be okay, the reason being is she rents the pool and snack bar from the owners of the hotel and this is her only income so if you are not buying from the snack bar she is not earning anything, also it is against greek law to take your own food etc round the pool, they do visit now and again and you have to have a receipt for anything you have bought. I'm sure if you have been to Greece before then you know all this anyway. Probably see you next June

Going  25/06/09  &  counting  the  days  already
 
cheers 

Linda O          10/10

Hi Luke,

There is no steps to pool area but there is to most of the apartments, if you specify that you want a ground floor I'm sure you will be okay, we have stayed at both the Mediteranee and the Amarylis, The med is nice but I prefer the Amarlylis, we are also going in 2009 (June 14th), there are 18 of us going so you best book quick before we take all the rooms.
Lin
 
P.S. the Amarylis is in a much more central location, right next door to McDonalds but it's not in a noisy part, we never heard any noise at all from the road etc.

Luke R

Next  year,  2009,  its  a  toss-up  between  the  Mediteranee  and  the  Amarylis.  I  know  where  the  Mediteranee  is  but  not  the  Amarylis.  I'v  got  a  map of  the  resort  that  I  filched  last  year.

 
If  you  can  let  me  know  if  theyve  got  hills or  steps  to  them  that  would  be  a  big  help  as  one  of  our  party  has  walking  probs

Jacqueline W          10/10

Just returned from Amarylis and have had a great time. Apartments are clean and had eveything we needed, they are in a central location next to bars and restaurants. Anna, Joseph and Louis were very friendly and helped make our stay very enjoyable. Would definitely go back here

Hi, we have just got back from a 2 week holiday.  During our stay we got married and had a wonderful time.  The apartments were very clean and situated close to the beach.  Anna and her family were very friendly and took a genuine interest in our wedding.  We would recommend these apartments to anyone who likes to have easy access to all the clubs and bars as it's on the main road.  We did find it slightly noisy but this was from some other inconsiderate guests who woke us up around 5am after nights out.  No noise was heard from the outside traffic.  All in all a very enjoyable stay and a fantastic wedding in Zante Town, thanks to the co-ordinator, Sandra.

Linda O          7/10

They are not up a hill near the crazy golf, they are right in the middle of town next door to macdonalds. We returned from them on Sunday and had a brilliant time, Anna, Nikos,Joseph and Lewis made our holiday wonderful, they own the pool and bar/snackbar area. The actual apartments are owned by another man and his mother, these are not very nice people. Before we got there the little cat that lives behind the bar area had a litter of kittens, they were about 6 weeks old when we arrived, one of them was very ill and was bought to the attention of the apartment owners, they instructed the maid to take the kitten away which was understandable as it was so ill but the others were perfectly well, for 3 days after that we would go down to feed the cat and kittens and another kitten would have dissappeared until the day before we came home all the kittens had been killed and probably not humanely. Also if anyone is going to tip the maids (they do a brilliant job) do it without the old lady (who owns the aparts) seeing as she takes it off them, she also goes into the rooms when you check out to see if there is any tips left for the maids and then pockets them. The manager also goes into the rooms when you are out of an evening, he was caught by one of the guests whose daughter was asleep in bed at the time, his excuse was he was checking to make sure the air con hadn't been left on which is impossible because the aircon tag is attached to your key and cannot be removed so why he was in the rooms no-one knows, just be careful not to leave anything valuable about.  This has nothing to do with Anna and her family who run the bar, they are brilliant, ask Joseph to make you a Lamb Kleftico or his King Prawns with tartar sauce, they are to die for.  I would go back to Tsilivi and go and go and eat in Anna's bar but I would never stay at these apartments again and give this despicable man my money again.

Rachael K          1/10

hi rachael here just got back from the amarylis apartments and can honestly say they are the worse apartments iv ever stayed in and would not recomend these 2 anyone they are very very basic and i always go self catering. the beds are that hard and thin u may aswell sleep on the floor.

Irene

Hi, we haven't stopped at the Amarylis Apartments, but I know that they're not up a hill.  If you've been to Tsilivi before, they are opposite the Majestic restaurant. 

Hope this helps.

Darren K          10/10

I dont know why there so many bad comments about Anna.  Her family are the most friendliest people I have known abroad. We have been there 3 times and going back in july. Its the best place in zante.

you wouldnt expect to take your own food to a restaurant in the UK and the owner liking it,  so why should you abroad. I recommend Amarylis to all families and couples.  See you end of JULY Anna, Joseph, Lewis, Nikos.  from Darren, Louise & Bailey (Noooo,  I dont like you)

Ian T

Hi Rachel,

We went there last year, the Apartments are Ok nothing OTT, noise level ok, but hey we used it as a base to get your head down! They do have fridges & electric cooker with a kettle & again we only had breakfast there, as the bars/restaurants are better-suited & not bad on price! Your spoiled for choice as to were to eat & they’re all good, Cant remember the name of the place but we found one really good & the service ( especially when the free booze comes out) excellent, walking to the beach, when you reach the fork in the road go right then go past the shop with the escalator & take the 2nd right, ( there are no shops over the road just a wall) & its about 100 yards on the right. A very nice Australian Lady runs it, ASK for the belly rub

Hello Vicky, did you have a nice holiday, what is the weather like there at the moment, from the weather forecasts here for Zante it does not look too good.

Vicky W          10/10

Thanks Linda.. We go on Wednesday morning.. cant wait now!

Am sure you will enjoy the Amaryllis.. Enjoy your holiday and let me know what you think when you return!

Happy Holidays

Linda O

Have a lovely holiday Vicky 

Linda O

Thankyou Vicki for putting my mind at rest, we would never take our own food and drink round the pool, we have seen people do it in various parts of greece and we know it is not allowed, we tend to spend a lot of time around the pool when we are away so my husband and I will be eating and drinking at the snack bar, I was just worried about my daughter not being able to eat there as much. I am now looking forward to going on the 17th June. Thanks again.

Vicky W          10/10

Hi Linda. No it isnt as bad as people really say at all!! Anna doesnt expect you to eat in her snack bar everyday, even every other day!! To be honest your daughter will find her a lot cheaper then any other eatery in tsilivi... Anna doesnt expect you to eat here over any other restaurant, infact she will reccomend other restaurants..what Annas issue is is guests using her pool/sunbeds and bringing their own food and drink by the pool everyday, like most hotels/appartments in tsilivi, the pool bar owner rents the pool/bar off the hotel owners so their only income is what they make selling food and drink, so i dont blame her getting upset when people stay at the hotel for two weeks, using her sunbeds and not even buying a bottle of water at 1 euro or whatever, when thats the only money she makes. having stayed at the amaryllis before and going again next week, i can honestly say anna isnt as bad as people are making out on here....Anna and her family are lovely, the food is lovely and really cheap, full english for 3euro, come on what are people really moaning about?? 

Linda O

I am a bit concerned about some of the comments I have read on the site about the amarylis appts. me and my husband, my daughter and grandson are going in 6 weeks, my daughter is on a limited budget and will not be able to afford to eat at the snack bar all the time and I don't want her holiday ruined by being refused use of the sunbeds and pool as this is her and my grandsons first time abroad. My hubby and myself will be using the snackbar and bar a lot of the time we don't want to feel obligated to using it all of the time as we like to try different places to eat. Is it really as bad as people say.

Lisa H

Just returned from a very relaxing holiday at the Amarylis apartments.  Anna, Joseph and Louis were very friendly and offered good service at all times and Anna always had a smile for the guests.  The pool was excellent and we had no trouble securing sunbeds when we needed them.  Tsilivi was lively enough, but not too mad, which suited us.

 

Kelly R           

To Anna, Joseph & Lewis

Fabulous holiday, wonderful hospitality, from Sue & Ken, remember us, Dave, Liza, Jude & Nia. Ken cied when we left.
 
See you next year.
 
P.s This is for Lewis. CHELSEA RULES!!!

Phil W           

We have just got back from the Amarylis and all i can say is EXCELLENT.
The food in the pool bar EXCELLENT
Anna, Joseph, louis and nikcos were the best hosts. ( Anna is now my new mum ) her cooking is that good
The rooms were cleand every day . I would recomend the Amarylis to anyone with a young familys

Nigel H           

I have been to Zante many times but this holiday turned out to be a holiday from hell.

Arrived on the 4th July and kept waiting at reception for one hour to be allocated a room only then to be told allocated a different room.

I eventually ended up in room 8 which overlooked the swimming pool. The room is quite large and very clean.

The problem with the accommodation is as follows

Could not get a sun bed as holidaymakers who had already arrived kept their towels on the sun bed permanently.

Constant noise from holiday makers and their children all day and all night as children were allowed to run up and down corridors 4.00 am in the morning.

One group of holidaymakers shouting profanities and being abusive to each other 5.00am in the morning.

Food in the snack bar poor and sometimes cooked by a 16-year-old boy.

Drinks of a poor standard.

Rep did not turn up for the welcome meeting.

Paid £80 euro to transfer to other accommodation

When I booked this holiday the brochure said that there may be a little noise disturbance, I expected this to come from the neighbouring bars and clubs and not from fellow holidaymakers, who made me feel ashamed to be British.

If you have booked to stay at the Amaryllis I suggest that you use the pool and bar at the Georgia Apartments across the road, which are perfect.

We stayed at the Amarylis in July this year. People in bars and restraunts very friendly. The Apartments were very clean maids came everyday. The family from the pool bar were very friendly and would do anything to help you. The youngest boy Louis was asking people to play pool. We went in July and the swimming pool was never crowded. We would definently go back to the Amarlis.

Linda M           

We stayed at the Amarylis from the 2nd of june to the 16th we had a great time. All the people from the restraunts were very frendly offering you free jugs of wine. The appartments are very clean maids came every day. The family from the pool bar were lovely people and we have booked to go next year can't wait.

Emma D           

Just recently got back from the Amarylis apartments. We had a fantastic time Anna, Joseph, Lewis were brilliant hosts they treated us really well. there was a great atmosphere while there as we met some lovely people (Steve,lynne,Morgan,Mark,Angela,and family,little tom and his family, etc. you know who you all are). Love to come back soon maybe next year. Apartments were basic but clean location central and people wonderful. Hello to everyone we met hope your all ok

Lynne G           

I am just back from Amarylis and I really enjoyed it.   I went with my husband and 5 year old daughter and we all loved it.  The apartemts were ok, but the pool and pool bar was the best.  Anna, Joseph and Lewis made us feel very welcome and I bet Lewis at pool!!  They even came out and waved us off, which I thought was really nice.  Hope to go back soon and Hi to everyone we met.  From Lynne, Steve and Morgan.

Nici R           

I came back from The Amarylis studios earlier on today and am already missing Joseph, Lewis and Anna. They made us (being 10 girls) feel VERY welcome from day one making an effort to make converation. Joseph grew a healthy friendship with Us over the 7 days that we stayed there. I would Definatly suggest To stay at the Amarylis studios. It has a great, Clean, friendly, fun and traditional atmosphere. The Studios are set back enough form the main road yet, still in the middle of everything. There was a bit of road noise in the night but the double glazing french doors soon sorted that out. I was very Impressed with the cleaning service that was provided every morning!..
I am deffinatly going to go back to The amarylis Studios!

Lisa H           

 
Thanks for that.........so can I request it and pay for it anyway? You sound like you had a great time anyway so that will do for me....I cannot wait counting down the weeks 9 tomorrow.

Kristie G           

hi there. you will love this place. some of the rooms have air con. it also depends on which travel company you go with. if you go with kosmar, the rooms dont have air con. but if you go with thomas cook, sunset the rooms do have it but you have to pay it by the day. there are 3 cash machines. the nearest are at the supermarket straight opposite amarylis of down towards the centre of town under some escelators. hope you have a good time!!

Lisa H           

 
We are due to go to the amarylis on 28th sept 2006, this is our first visit and i have also heard mixed reports, but feel a lot better now I have read some of your comments. Can anyone tell me if these apartments have air conditioning or can you pay a supplement when you get there to have it on. Also is their a cash machine anywhere to withdraw money from - if so do you know where. Also I love to shop(leather bags and shoes) - I have heard there are plenty of bars and resturants but what sort of shops do they have. Thanks

Andrea R           

HI THANKS FOR YOUR GOOD COMMENTS I FEEL THE SAME DONT NO WERE THESE BAD ONES HAVE CAME FROM THOU NO SUCH THING ANNA AND HER BOYS WERE FAB  ARE YOU LIAMS MAM

Louise M           

 I got back yesterday and can say this was my best holiday by far and it was all down to the place i stayed. I travel alot alone with my son and was made to feel very welcome. Anna and her sons were lovely, very friendly. The whole place was vey clean, so was the pool. everything you could ever need is just there.. bars, shops and loads of places to eat.. what more do you need from a holiday? There is no doubt i will be back here next year...

Andrea R           

HAD THE BEST TIME EVER HERE STAYED AT THE APARTMENTS HERE TOO BEST FAMILY YOU COULD MEET GOT BACK YESTERDAY BEEN AND BOOKED FOR NEXT YEAR SO LOVELY THE FAMILY

Andrea R

Gerald W           

We had a family holiday this year, in total there were 8 of us:-Ronnie, Kath, Ella, Pat, Barbara, Steven, Julie and Myself.

The apartments were lovely, all four of them.
 
Anna, what a lovely lady, all her family made us all feel at home. Ronnie and Kath have already booked to return later this year.

Sue S           

The apartments were lovely. Anna (pool bar) wasn't very friendly if you didn't buy mostly food from her (the food wasn't very nice anyway!) There's plenty of restaurants and bars. Best bar by far is Magdelana's.

Met a lovely family! Rob, Carol, Stacey, Lauren and Haydon (Aidon?) We Hope Stacey is better! On Friday morning there was a toilet floating in the pool! Only joking! We would love to go to Tsilivi again, it would be great to see you again!
 
There were cute dogs aswell, aww!! from Craig

Frances M           

we stayed at the amarylis in may/june and i can honestly say it was the best holiday myself and my family have had the people were so nice especialy anna and her family, i would say it was suited to both familys and couples. the only thing i would say is dont book your trips through your reps, they were very expencive. if you walk 100yards down the road you will find a place  that books your trips at half the price. also, our appartment was right over the pool bar, and once you closed the doors we had no noise. i would go back again tommorow.

Robbie W           

Anna and family very nice, however prices very expensive.

Davy M           

 AMARYLIS APARTMENTS . HAVING BEEN TWICE,SPEAKS FOR ITSELF, WE ARE PLANNING TO VISIT AGAIN NEXT YEAR.HAD 2 ABSOLUTELY TROUBLE FREE EXCELLENT HOLIDAYS THERE. AS REGARDS TO ANNA AND HER FAMILY WHO RUN THE BAR,THEY  HAVE TO BE THE FRIENDLIEST PEOPLE WE HAVE MET . YOU MUST BEAR IN MIND THAT THIS POOL BAR AND THE POOL AREA ITSELF ARE LEASED TO THESE PEOPLE AND THAT THIS IS THEIR LIVELIHOOD,SO MAYBE THEY HAVE BEEN UPSET AT PEOPLE FOR NOT BUYING SNACKS ETC FROM THEIR BAR(OR DID THEY BRING IN SNACKS ETC FROM THE SUPERMARKET)I THINK THAT ITS ONLY COMMON COURTESY TO SPEND SOME MONEY IN THE BAR ,ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE USING THE FACILITIES . SORRY FOR RAMBLING ON,BUT,WE HONESTLY FEEL LIKE ANNA AND HER FAMILY ARE PART OF OUR FAMILY.DONT BELIEVE EVERY BAD REPORT YOU READ.GO ENJOY YOURSELF,YOU WILL HAVE A BALL.AND TELL ANNA AND LEWIS THAT "CHIPS" SAYS HELLO.

Davy M           

 AS REGARDS TO AMARYLIS BEING NEXT TO A BAR.THERE ARE MANY BARS/TAVERNAS NEARBY,AND REST ASSURED THAT YOU WONT BE BOTHERED BY NOISE. HAVING BEEN THERE TWICE(ALBEIT IN MAY) WE NEVER EXPERIENCED ANY NOISE.HAVE A BALL,AND SAY HI TO ANNA AND LEWIS FOR ME( TELL THEM CHIPS SAYS HI)

Anna, Lewis and Joseph were all fantastic!! Reasonable prices for well prepared food and drinks.  The hotel was spotlessly clean and rooms serviced daily. Tsilivi and the Amarylis was one of the best holidays I have ever had. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Anna and her family just put the icing on the cake! We'll be back!!!!!

Laura K           

We stayed at tom and johns which is about a 10 min walk from the amarylis. We went there sometimes and played with the baby turtles nad had a drink. I was just wondering how the turtles were doing because we loved playing with them. thanks from laura xxx xxx xxx

Louise K           

hi guys hope you are all fine well you know what i think you are all graet and you made my holiday thanks for keeping the bar open till 7 in the morning for me and karl we loved it and are cocktails god knows what you put in them haha love you all xx

Helena W           

the amarylis is next door to friends bar, which is next door to Mc Donalds.

David Q           

We stayed here at the end of July. The location was central & the apartments are large in the new block & very clean. We had 2 apartments me & my wife & two teenagers. The pool was nice except it is sub-let to managers & if you do not use their bar & resturant they seem to get extreamly funny with you ( i noted that someone else had this problem after us). But once your in the resort the beach is so nice you really do not need to sit around a pool all day. There are many reasurants & bars around. Right opposite is Majestics & we had breakfast most mornings there & would also recommened there Greek Night. We went on both Tuesdays & had a great laugh and most people joined in with the dancing. I would go back to this apartments without hesitation but i would give the pool a miss next time

Ruth M           

What a fantastic place to stay !We came to Tsilivi in August 2005 and found the rooms were spacious and clean although there was no air con the room was never too hot . The staff were very friendly and helpful especially Anna and her sons Joseph and Lewis . I went with my boyfriend and another couple who were staying in another apartment at the beach. The amarylis was so good that they walked down from their apartments 20 mins away just to spend the day by our pool ! If i ever came back to Tsilivi i would definitely stay here again - we would have to even if it was just to see Anna and her kids ! The location is great as well - everything is just on your doorstep but i cant say we ever had any noise disturbance . We recomend Romios for meals the food was great and the service fab too - the girls are English and they were very kind and taught us some Greek phrases.

One thing tho - the showers are a bit funny but i think thats a Greek thing , they only go bout halfway up the wall but although this looked a bit strange at first you soon got used to it and its certainly not enough to put anyone off .

I'm really suprised with some of the reviews on here. My family found the Amarlyis apartments quite basic, the rooms were nice but extremely hot and there was some bad noise from outside.

The resort its self was very 'touristy' and money-orientated which was shown with Anna and Joseph who ran the pool bar. We began ok and bought snakcs and drinks from the pool bar but then decided to explore some of the surrounding culture. However, on the 10th day Anna confronted my wife very rudely and explained that we didn't buy enough from the snack bar and couldn't use 'her sunbeds' anymore. My wife was very upset - we'd saved all year for that holiday!! We've read many reviews since and come to the conclusion that if you want to spend all day round a pool and snack bar (food wasn't great anyway) anna and joseph will be your very best freinds. If you want a proper holiday please DONT go to the Amarylis as you won't be welcomed! We didn't take advice before we left and now wish we had!

Where abouts is the Amarylis? If I was starting at Popeye's what directions would I take - hoping to stay there next year, also is there anything you need to take with you? regards Yvonne
