I came back from Zante 2 weeks ago and thought i'd come leave a review. I stayed at the Alexandra Beach Hotel in Tsilivi for a wedding. Our first thoughts about our hotel room were that is was very basic; this was until we had been there 2 days and the rest of our party arrived. Our friends (the wedding couple) had an 18 month old and were originally given a 1st floor room with a balcony not suited to children, they were moved but it was a lot of up and down and put a downer on their 1st day there. Once everyone was situated we checked out each others rooms and decided that compared to the other 3 rooms our friends were in ours was actually a luxury! dont be fooled by the thought of a 'Bungalow' its not as it sounds, it is a small room that is right next to the pool bar that will play music until 3 or 4am (if this is your thing then please go ahead lol) besides the actual rooms the hotel was nice, the thing I didnt like was that they dont have safety deposit boxes in your room (as I have always had in other places) and you have to pay 5 euros per day for air con. The reception desk were okay and fairly friendly, the bar staff and waiters were very polite and efficient. 

While the beach right next to the hotel is great for kids (except the sea urchins! ouch!) the pool is not. It was clearly marked up wrong and was rather deep all the way through, it had a slope that suddenly dropped into what looked like at least 3 metres. The food was okay and had an adequate variety but not much more, which is okay if you want to eat out at the various restaurants surrounding the area.  Tsilivi itself was fantatstic. There was plenty to do and a lovely street to wander down. We went on the turtle tour which was brilliant as they let you get off the boat and into the sea several times. The Friday beach parties were good though they took a while to get going. There were several weddings throughout the 2 weeks that were lovely to watch as well.  Overall the hotel selling point is its absoloutly stunning views. I have never seen anything like it, from one side of the hotel you can see Kefalonia clearly and the Greece mainland the other side, both are gorgeous and very nice to photograph during sunset. I would definately go back to Zante and Tsilivi in particular, even to this very hotel if I could have a room the same as the one I had!
