Whether it is the romantic echoes of Foscolo’s poems or the trendy music of the fashionable clubs that bring you to Zakynthos, you are sure to find a dream resort on this wonderful island that is tailor-made for your ideal holiday.
The resorts and holiday villages of Zakynthos are concentrated along the east coast of the island, the most touristically developed. Fabulous beaches and amenities are all at your fingertips, but chances are you won’t feel like going out if you have chosen an all-inclusive beachfront resort. Unlimited relaxation and food, why ever leave?
This dream is within everyone’s reach: thanks to holiday village offers, you can treat yourself to a 4- or 5-star holiday in Zakynthos without spending a fortune. Prices are, on average, lower than those of the glamorous Greek islands par excellence (read: Santorini and Mykonos), but scenic locations, high-quality service, care and refinement in the furnishings are still guaranteed.
Generally July and August are very popular months and it is therefore advisable to book well in advance, but if you are caught late, don’t give up because there may still be a convenient last minute offer. If you travel at other times you will find lower rates and more peace of mind.
