Oasis Bar (Toucan Bar) - (Bars in Argassi)

Hi Ken & Jude
We last came out to visit Argassi in 2000 and now 5 years later we are coming back and bringing our little girl, can't wait to get out there and sample all your new cocktails after all you introduced me to Passou. We came out in 1999 on honeymoon and loved it so much came back in 2000 and Cassy kept chewing my flip flops.... Counting down the weeks till we come in September, only difference is we won't be able to stay in bar drinking till sunrise. Love to you all and UP THE VILLA Ken.

Argassi Resort - (Resorts in Zante)

Jon E           

Absolutely fantastic resort, our 3rd time there, we had a brilliant time there with our 2 year old. 

Resort has not changed that much in 5 years was like stepping back in time.
 
Food great, bars great especially the OASIS.... love ya Jude, Ken & crew
 
The only downside to our holiday was the 8 hour delay in the ram shackle airport with the overpriced beer and rubbish food (ours was out of date) supplied by airline (european aviation & manos) due to delay.
 
Word of warning if you hear you are delayed proir to check in do not go through passprt control stop the other side and go to snack bars over the road, you can get meal for 2 for 10 euros
 
We are off to book to go twice next year (but not with Manos) that;s how much we all loved it.

We ate here once on our last night..... wish we had gone there sooner..... the food was out of this world ........service was brilliant and price was excellant as well.

This will be the first place we visit when we go back next year.
 

Papillon - (Restaurants in Argassi)

Jon E           

We have been to The Papillon several times before on previous holidays, we went one night this holiday (first week in Sept) the food was as nice as we remembered, so we went again..... disaster we had to wait 10 minutes before they even brought us a menu, then it took 1 1/2 hours to get our food...... mine and little girls arrived then 10 minutes later the steak arrived which was tough and chewy.  All in all normally a pleasant evening but not on this occassion.

Piccadilly - (Restaurants in Argassi)

Jon E           

Food is fantastic, waiters are friendly and price is excellant loads better than others in Argassi. Still as nice as we remember from previous years

Doctors Surgery - (Doctors/Chemists in Zante)

Jon E           

Dr Sam is brilliant, I had to visit him 5 times during our holiday due to problems with my blood. 

He was fantastic spoke perfect English and nothing was too much trouble.
 
When I got home and went to see my own doctor I was told that the best place to get ill abroad is Greece because they have the best medical care in Europe.

The best bar in argassi is gone (its the only one worth going in) I'm sure you will be back better than ever, Dont let the ******* get you down, If your not back were going to miss you, Your the only reason we keep coming back to argassi.

Argassi is child freindly, first time back last year with our one, after several visits without kids still loved it as much..

 
The beach aint much but get a car and few miles up the road and the beaches are great back , but too a toddler warm sand and warm sea are great fun.

Peppermint - (Restaurants in Argassi)

Jon E           

Have just got back from Argassi and have to say had the best meal of our holiday here.

The restaurant is just in the side road road opposite the church so it is nice and serene there and well worth the walk down the main road to visit this gorgeous eatery, we will definitately be eating here when we return in August.
 
The food was absolutely delicious and very filling, we both had a pasta dish and a side salad both freshly cooked and presented in a stunning location.
 
The waiters couldn't be more helpful and friendly.
 
Will be back to see you in August!!!!

Got back yesterday and already missing the people and the place... yes even smiling Keith... he got a kiss off Chloe (after all she is only 2)!!!

Ken the fountain looks brilliant but will be even better when there is no foam in it....!!!
 
The picture I am putting on is of the new sign, I was told  not to put a picture of Keith on in case he scared away customers...
 
Good luck to you all this summer
 
Already counting down the days till we return (27th August) and Jude have a great birthday, sit down get drunk and let the lads do all the work for a change!!!

Windmill Hotel - (Accommodation in Argassi)

Jon E           

We stopped at the windmill studios last September again in May and we are back there in 7 weeks.... is that a better recommendation.

seriuosly though they are situated in an ideal location, close by for all ammenities but far enough away not to be on top of noise etc.

The pool is lovely and plenty of loungers and parasols, the snack bar is cheap and plenty to choose from and as for the staff there they are some of the nicest on the island my 3 year old loved them.

Apollo - (Bars in Argassi)

Cheap  warm beer and being new are the only things this place has going for it, very poor entertainment value

Red Lion - (Bars in Argassi)

Gary J  (17 July 2006)         

If you like karoake then this place could be good (although if you like karoake this place does then your better off in benidorm !! or blackpool) same thing every night!! only went in there once never again but had to pass every night on the way into town and wouldnt consider a second visit in there

Legends Bar - (Bars in Argassi)

Gary J           

Is this place a bar or a restaurant?? Entertainment and drinks were good, but food was okay not the best, stick to being a bar and it could be a lot better overall not poor but not the best place to try to combine a restaurant and bar
