Levante Speedboat Trip - (Zante Excursions)

Joe &          10/10

On our two week stay in Tsilivi we went on both trips with Captain Spiros. The trip to the shipwreck and the Blue Caves was very enjoyable, especially getting into the caves to swim. Even more enjoyable was the trip to the Keri Caves and Turtle spotting. This trip was very relaxed, we stopped along the way to watch some fishermen haul their nets in, which was very nice to see.We saw three turtles surface, one for more than a few seconds. Again the swimming was really good. The Captain "Aye Aye Sir" Spiros was an enjoyable host, ready to take photos and interact with passengers. Both trips would come recommended from us suiting all age groups.

Alexandra Beach Hotel - (Accommodation in Tsilivi)

Joe &          1/10

We were due to stay at this hotel for two weeks in July/August. One look at what was supposed to be our room told us, no way! The room was a forlorn dull uninviting sad cell. I have seen better rooms in hostels twenty years ago. This forsaken offering had furniture from the seventies painted grey. The bed coverings were torn and badly faded. In one area a fridge was on top of a luggage rack and on top of that a small telly perched precariously. The toilet/shower area was totally inadequate. It did not say holiday! It took us only seconds to decide it wasn't for us. Hotel staff  were unable, and I thought unwilling, to assist us with a change to something that would say holiday, chill, relax!  Another holidaymaker had a similar complaint at that time and on the plane home another had a complaint. Our tour operator was able to assist us with a relocation when they finally understood that we were not for staying.
