Ignore last comment as she must be high on the alcohol my hotel room cleaned every day always with clean towels room was spotless the pool was spotless 2 i think she needs glasses as i could see bottom of pool the hotel in genera i couldnt fault bar staff were great and beds ok were basic but i think last comment wanted to spend more time in her hotel room than have a holiday a very good hotel every 1 would recommend to any 1 HAVE FUN AT THE CAVO DORO HOTEL!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just returned from 2 weeks at Cavo Doro - Staff friendly and helpful.
Hotel - Basic and poor value for money. The room was dirty upon arrival and I had to request it be cleaned. Maid service frequent but poor. Had to request on more than one occassion, change of sheets and towels and pillowcases as the "clean" ones left that day weren't clean! We are a family of four and were staying in a 1 bed apartment - TINY!!! We fortunately spend little time in there so not too much of an issue for us but could be if you were to spend more time in your room. Which brings me to the kitchen - this is actually a fridge, a sink and two hob rings that take forever to heat. Impossible to cook on them. Also, the kettle and toaster we left on a knee high coffee table, not child friendly.
The so called childrens play area actually consisted of a ball and a broken wendy house.
The pool - Staff great, pool not so! Not very big and to be honest, not that clean! We went to a hotel down the road and used their pool as it was much more spacious and cleaner.
All in all I have to say I was left feeling a little let down by the quality of the accommodation and I have written to my tour operator to express my dissatisfaction with the standard.
I'd also like to point out that the positive comments being left bu myself and others about Akis/Alison/Yanniss etc are valid. They do offer great service but my understanding is that Akis owns both his bar and the pool bar but not the hotel and my negative comments about the hotel are in no way a reflection on Akis or the other staff, all were superb.
Hi everyone!, jus came back from a hectic week at cavodoro, staff were great (yani,gaz,bex,akis,josh) but th holiday wasnt bcoz of arguments by the pool with an old lady, overall good entertainment, but if ur 18/19 like us id suggest goin around aug n not oct. yani hav u got those pics for us?! xxxx lauren,sara, danny n alicia xx
weve been to kalimaki for the past 2 years and only stoped at the cavodora. its great there.the rooms are quite small and the pool isnt the very big but the rest of the hotel is good the reception staff are very friendly and its a good place to stay.
Just got back from this resort and apartments . They were very good and were very clean and we had a sea view and the room was very pleasant and gave the impression that it had been decorated was very nice.
The staff were lovley and very pleasant especially the greek / canadian lady who was front of house.
The pool was a tadge small for the people who stayed but was nice.
The lovley gardens were well tended and the place was really pretty and was a nice relaxing place to chill for a holiday.Our room looked out on to the gardens and the sea and was so nice
Kalamaki was brill lots of lovley restsaurants to eatout in and places to visit
We went to LAGANAS avoid this it now as a terrible reputation for drunk uncontrolled teenagers and is a overated overpriced blackpool a real sh...... tip not the place to pay loads to see or spend a holiday there.Even the reps said it as lessened in popularity over the last two years Kalamaki is the better area and lovley Zante town which my daughter loved and shes 16
Anyhow to sum it up pay cavo doro a visit it is situated not far from the lovley crystal beach it is pretty and very ouiet compared to kalamaki beach front. and the crystal hotel lets you use its pool and sunbeds that are free and looks out to the ocean
THANK YOU TO THE STAFF AT THE COMPLEX A VERY NICE PLACE TO STAY EXCELLANT
The only thing i didnt like was the STILETO BRIGADE that came in and woke people up in the early ours of the morning but hey you are on holiday so what the heck thats part of the fun hectic days and sleepless nightswasnt there once a song with that in the tittle. by whitesnake.
MANY THANKS WILL RETURN ONEDAY EXCELLANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NICE PLACE

Apartment was clean, staff were friendly, food was good. Pool was good - until we went to the Antonis pool which was when we realised the pool at Cavo D'oro isn't as clean as it could be. At night you can't see the bottom as it's so cloudy. A bit rowdy in the day too - far more peaceful and roomy at Antonis. Maid service was good.
the Cavo D'oro has a website here, http://www.zantehotels.gr/cavodoro/index.html they also have a separate website for the bars which are owned separately which I don't know at the moment! Im not sure of the numbers of the rooms, but you can't go wrong in any of them really, the block at the back of the pool is the newest. The rooms to the right hand side of each block have good sea views with the rooms to the left of the new block being a bit dark but never the less still quiet. Restaurants in Kalamaki are varied, catering for most cuisines. The main strip just around the corner from the Cava D'oro has lots of good restaurants, Mermaids, Panarama, some decent Chinese restaurants with a mix of sports bars to wash it all down!! Hope this helps.
Ewan,
The Cava D'oro is a nice family hotel, if you are wanting a nice place to stay with a party atmosphere, Kalamaki will suit you, I have been to Zante 8 times, 4 of those to this hotel & will be returning on 30th May. Jiannis will keep the bar open till the last one goes home but will keep it quiet for everyone else. This hotel is a fantastic base for Laganas if you want one or 2 wild nights, with a good selection in Kalamaki of local bars with Karaoke, its great!!
we went to the hotel and it was brilliant! we all had a good time sataff was lovely! the pool was fantastic and kids loved it! were going back there in august and we all cant wate!
in love with the place.. akis yannis alison danny n all d ganstayed in cavo doro past 2 years totally g cant wait to see you next year this time it will be for 6 monthswe had an absolute brill time . food ,drink ,place ,people everting is fab!!!
