Tsilivi Resort - (Resorts in Zante)

Mike T           

Just back from 2 weeks in tsilivi and can report that the Smirnoff Ice is excellent, so was the resort, so was the nightlife, and so are the people, only bad thing to report was the airport, you must be prepared for long waits for both claiming your luggage & checking in for the return, this is not just a general moad it really was horendous.
A great bar to visit is Utopia, seek out the mad russian Alexandra and ask her to sing the russian national anthem and tell her Mike & Vikki sent you, your bound to get a free drink.
Our hotel, The Mediteranee, wasn't up to much but who spends their time in the hotel room when your on holiday. Loads of good eating places, Zeus being particularly popular but a bit more expensive than average. Avoid the chinese meals at the Indian/chinese restaraunt near Zeus Yuk terrible but the Indian meals are OK. Watch out for the two ATM's being out of order as they frequently were, nearest one after that is Zante Town!!
All in all, another great greek resort, just don't expect perfection, after all it's their home town and it's not finished yet.

Utopia Bar - (Bars in Tsilivi)

We stayed in the Mediteranee oposite Utopia, saw they were having a good time and went to join them, that was it!! we tried other places but kept going back to Utopia. ALEXANDRA DARLING, you are a very dangerous Russian with those potent cocktails!! Destan was just off his head, Yannis had a thing with straws!!! and Maria cried when we left!! was that with releif? a great bar and you could make it what you wanted it to be, who cares that our hotel was a bit naff, we spent most our time in Utopia!!
Yamass & Yasoo, You Guys, Mike & Vikki

Azure (Mediterranee) Hotel - (Accommodation in Tsilivi)

Mike T           

the med is as good as any in tsivili, air conditioned rooms were very welcome, a bit noisy if your room is at the front, fridges can be had at a price but we just used the one that was on the landing for free, bedding was a bit spa**e but maid service was excellent, prices in the hotel were high but there are plenty of places to buy whatever you want within a few metres, breakfasts are continental type but nice enough, the pool & surrounding area is nice with plenty of sunbeds but these usually suffer from the german syndrome (towels) not much for kids and no dedicated area at the pool for them (shallowest depth 1.2 metres) basically a decent place but nothing to make it stand out from the rest

Zeus - (Restaurants in Tsilivi)

Mike T  (19 July 2003)         

We dined here loads of times during our fortnight after having tried a few others and deciding that this was the best, the food was always excellently cooked with a wide variety on the menu, even if it wasn't on the menu the staff would try to accomodate, tables were at a premium by early evening!! The waiters were brilliant and usually quick to serve and clear. The Zeus obviously knows that it provides a better package than most of the others as the prices show this but there again having used the place a lot we had no sign of "Deli Belly" Try to avoid sitting near the swallows nests as you can get bombarded with droppings and birds flying past inches from your nose!!
