Paradise Apts - (Accommodation in Alykes)

Andrew S           

We returned from spending two weeks at the Paradise apartments on 16th October. Had a fantastic time and cannot fault the accomodation, clean and basic but enough equipment to make some meals if desired. I just hope they invest in some new matresses soon as they can be a bit uncomfortable to say the least! Superb location right on the beach (although pebbles, once in the water it is sand all the way!) with a first class swimming pool and snack bar. The staff are friendly and helpful (thanks to Panos our dodgy door lock was sorted first thing in the morning), and make a good English breakfast as well!
The fact that it is located on the edge of the resort meant it had a very quiet and picturesque surrounding, which was the iceing on the cake. Would recommend it to those seeking a relaxing break.

Manos Holidays - (Tour Operators in Zante)

Andrew S  (20 October 2003)         

Manos are a complete waste of time, unfortunately they are the only ones who deal with the apartments we stayed at, which were excellent. The information pack when we arrived was one sheet of paper relating to events in laganas (we were in Alykes), the rep, lindsey, was useless when we arrived at our room and couldnt get in as the door was broken. When we did get in, she promised someone from manos would check on us the next day to ensure we were ok....surprise, surprise, we never heard a word more from them. She even cancelled two visits so we never saw her until we got to the airport on the way home!

I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND MANOS TO ANYONE.

Virago Bar - (Bars in Alykes)

Superb bar, excellent cocktails (generous measures), and Spiros is the friendliest barman i've ever met. We had a great time in Alykes and Virago was the perfect place to start/end the evening. Keep up the good work Spiros!
