My wife, daughter and myself have just returned from our third visit to Zante and second to the resort of Kalamaki, staying at the Hotel Marelen. I would agree that Kalamaki is a fantastic resort at which to stay with sufficient bars, restaurants, supermarkets etc. to ensure that if you did not want to leave the resort during your stay there is no need to do so. The Hotel Marelen was clean and well maintained with very friendly, helpful staff. Our personal best choice of all of the restaurants were Paulo's, Buon Amici and Zepo's and I would recommend any of them without a doubt for excellent, value for money food. All in all a fantastic fortnight was had by all, with superb weather only adding to the experience. We would recommend a trip to the resort without any hesitation.
