Just back form Zante. Staying at the Chryssi Akti
Hotel was clean, however the air con was not available in our room. Not a problem, as we overloked the sea and were able to leave the windows open at night. There is something to be said for the plug -in mossi-buster. We stayed B@B, nothing to get too excited about. The staff were friendly, especially at the pool-side bar. Euro 2004 got them all excited, boy they know how to celebrate.
Hotel is perfect distance from the resort, a gentle stroll. Being on the beach itis perfect for enjoying the delights of sea swimming( i did not use the pool once). The pool is clean and tidy, plenty of sunbeds, the pool is shared bt the Paradise Hotel, but their was no scrambling for position. Has cosmopolition clinetele, with Greeks, Swedes, East europeans and the UK and Irish.Food at the pool side bar is good value, for lunch times etc.

Travelled by Manos, staff very laid back, some were new to the job, did not use them. Booked trips through peter at Mannfredas tours, excellent tour by boat of the whole Island, stopping at Smugglers Cove, swimming snorkelling, good value day out.

Zakynthos town is a 5 min taxi(6 euro), huge promenade harbour, shoping range is good, try a Freddocino at the Greco cafe on the seafront. St Marks Square is where the bulk of the eateries are located, plus a few trendy bars, it is very lively.

Agrassi is one long strip with a variety of tourist shops and loads of eateries. The best for us were the Venitianna set back off the road, fantastic food and great atmospheric location in a villa style setting( the sister taverna in Zakynthos Town is also excelent). The Premier facing the Best Supermarket has good food friendly staff and value for money.

Overall an excellent holiday, enough nighlife if you want that, but also the facility to chill and relax.
