Zakfari Jeep Safari - (Zante Excursions)

Just want to say what a great day was had on the Zakfari Jeep Safari. Even the "dodgy starter motor" entertained, keep that hammer safe Paul!

We went on several trips and cruises on the 2 weeks we spent in Zante and without a doubt, we saw and learnt more about the island during this day than all the others combined.

Thanks and keep up the good work!

Savvas Hotel - (Accommodation in Laganas)

We were dissapointed at what we saw when we arrived. The brochure had shown the appartments next to the pool which was a deciding factor for us choosing this accomidation as we wanted a relaxing holiday that we could sit there when we wanted. When we arrived we found we were in a block 100m up a gravel track away from the pool area. The pool area was tidy but there were no sunbeds available unless you were there very early, most just had the usual unocupied towels. The pool wasn't very clean either as we didn't see the bottom in the whole 2 weeks we were there.

The accomodation was noisy at first due to groups of boys/girls playing music some nights till around 5am, this quietend down once they were warned with being thrown out.

The rooms were very basic but were cleaned regularly including towels and bedding. Toilet roll was in short supply and we found ourselves buying everything we used.

We were able to hire fans which helped with the heat at night as we had to keep the windows and doors shut due to mosquitoes.

Saftey Deposit boxes were available but are located underneath the counter in the pool bar. It was only big enough for an envelope and was of no use for keeping anything like a camera in. You had to hand anything to go in the box to the barman who would lock it up. At no time would you see the boxes or him putting your stuff in them. You'll need to be Very trusting.

The staff were very plesant and helpfull at all times and the food they serve at the pool bar was good.

We had food here almost every night of our 2 weeks in Zante.
Service was excellent and the staff were very friendly and efficient.
Keep an eye on the offers board as there are some cracking meals.
Would recommend for all to try.
