that would be a bit subjective, as I eat almost anything,and found no problems, the OH is a bit fussy, but found more than enough from the selection, our comments were
Food..breakfast was the usual continental buffet and attempted English [not yet found a Greek hotel that can do a proper English] Dinner well not truly Ionian/Greek it had all the necessary flavours and colours of the region. if you do not like Ionian Greek style then don't go half board.


[i have just realised it was the end of 2008 we went not last year...i must need a holiday :rofl ]

We were going to book to go to Turkey but since the collapse of Goldtrail the prices have gone up alot, we are now thinking of going to Zante mid August for 2 weeks. What are the prices like to eat and drink out compared to Turkey?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

what a great site. I hope someone can help. We have booked to go to the two brothers studios as a quick decision after our holiday to Turkey has gone, through the goldtrail administation saga. :whoops
since booking I have found nothing but bad reveiws on these apartments so I'm hoping some of you nice people can shine a light on the area and apartments. good/bad

many thanks

we always go to zante but never been to turkey so cant really say but i know of people that have been to both and they say zante is cheaper to eat,drink etc

we are a family of 4 but the kids are older and eat adult meals and we pay roughly between 30-60 euros, depending on if we have starters, desserts and what we have to drink, thats just a rough guide so hope it helps a little

my advice would be to just go, you can make it as expensive or as budget as possible. You can probably save 30/40 euro's a day by just taking your own bottled water round the pool for the day or not eating out one day/afternoon/breakfast.

Hi sorry to send you to another site but it may be better there. Zante messageboard. That is purely for Zante and there is a whole section just for Kalamaki. I have used both this and the other site and have found them both to be immensley helpful.

Bertrambee We stayed in the two brothers Kalamaki last year . We were booked elsewhere but moved to this one by travel agent . We had no problems at all neither did the most of the guests while we were there . There was a big group there during our first week that wrecked a room saying they had money stolen. I can honestly say they had different people in their rooms all the time so could of been anyone . We always left ipod etc out never had a problem. My wife broke heer foot the week before we went the staff change rooms for us straight away. The only problem was the bar close 11.30 to midnight. It is in a location easy to reach everywhere .Hope this helps. We would stay there again .

Hi
Can anyone tell me if there is duty free on the flights to Zante, read somewhere there are no cigarettes on board, but what about perfumes etc??
Thanks
Reply
as you will be flying within the EU duty free doesn't apply [this also applies to your departure airport]
you may purchase goods DUTY PAID at the airport but if your thinking of tobacco products they will be cheaper in Zakynthos alcohol is a little cheaper than the uk.. cant help with other goods
