Kalamaki, Greece: Average Review Ratings

Weather

Weather was hot! Between 38 and 41 degrees.

Only saw clouds twice in the morning on the second week of our holiday.

Holiday

It was our first visit to Zante.

We stayed at the Daisy Appartments, Kalamaki. Lovely and clean Marlene who ran the pool and bar was great. My two children Chloe, aged 12, and Kieran, aged 6, were made so welcome by her.

We only went to the beach three times. It was ok walking down but it was awful walking back because it was so hot, it looked like you had a shower attached to your head!

We will be going back and staying at the same apartments.

Thanks to Marlene and Nicole the cleaner for a memorable holiday.

For a small snack try Tazs, they do lovely pork or chicken gyros only 2 euros.

Weather

We went to Kalamaki last year - our 3rd time!! The weather was fantastic - not a cloud in the sky and in it's 90's every day

Holiday

We always enjoy returning to Kalamaki.
We have two children and feel it is a very safe place for families. The locals are very friendly and love the kids. We will be returning again next year - it's already booked!!
The Hotel Denny's Inn is in a great location - just a short walk from the main strip and a short stroll from the beach. The hotel is family run and all the staff are great - they have occasional evening entertainment and most noghts all the guests collect in the bar for a night cap and chat. Great place!!

We love Michaelos restaurant - all the waiters are great fun and love to see the kids. One of our favourites is Escape - Demi is great and will give you a quick leason in Greek - the food is fab and they will adapt the menu to suit.
You have to go to the Down Under Bar and order a cocktail - just to see the barman spin the bottles. Great fun.

Holiday

We stayed at the Marelen hotel, it was the best holiday ever.
The hotel and staff were really nice, the hotel pool was very clean and the evening entertainment was great.The lovely beach was a 2 minute walk away from the hotel and a 10 minute stroll to the strip where there was endless restaurants , bars and a couple of clubs, which was good as we have a couple of teenagers, who thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
the holiday was so good we are returning this august.
