Sea View Village - Studios & Apartments

“A place we’d return to? ……in a heartbeat!!! Truly exceptional and stunning.”

Maria is very proud of her beautiful “village” - and rightly so. Everything is quality - exceptionally clean and tidy. Our accommodation large and airy with stunning views through the pines to the bluest of blue sea. A truly peaceful haven set in the hills - the only noise we became aware of was the chirping cicadas in the trees and the cock crowing in the morning. A generous buffet style breakfast taken in the restaurant or sitting on the surrounding veranda provided a variety of local produce including the delicious village bread, thyme honey and local biscuits…..and Greek Coffee! We enjoyed a couple of dinners in the restaurant where the seasonal menu changed daily with some rather good local wines. Maria hosted a “Greek Night” which was good fun, plenty of freshly prepared meats, salad, potato and flatbread. Local musicians and dancers entertained us before being eagerly encouraged to join in. A good night was had by all. The pool and surrounding area again, pristine clean. Plenty of sunbeds with towels provided. An array of drinks available and snacks from the pool bar provided refreshments required and a daily “Happy Hour” gave the opportunity to try the “barman’s special cocktail” . Sea Village is happy, happy place - all the staff, smiling, chatty and accommodating. A daily transfer down to Kaminia Bay is offered - a peaceful beachside location with safe shelving swimming area and a choice of two bars providing sun beds on grassy tranquil areas. Within the vicinity of the village is a local well stocked supermarket and three tavernas which were all equally good. There is a local bus - limited timings but it got us into Zante Town and back. All in all we just couldn’t fault anything and would gladly recommend and hopefully return. We thank you all for your kindness making our holiday on Zante so memorable.

Sea View Village, Vasilikos is one of the best hotels we have stayed in. It is set on a delightful hillside giving beautiful sea views from most rooms. Acommodation is in four independant well maintained buildings and a fabulous swimming pool and pool bar in the centre. We were upgraded to a maisonette type appartment with a huge bedroom and massive bed, dressing table, bedside tables with drawers, a good sized wardrobe and ample clothes storage. There is a kitchenette with fridge/ freezer, toaster and kettle and tgere are plenty of electrical sockets. The shower room has a large walk in jungle shower with hand help attachment, washbasin & toilet. Double doors lead to a large shaded balcony with table & chairs, further chairs in the corner and a rattan double bench seat. Lovely views. The balcony doors also have a sliding insect net screen. On arrival the manager Maria made us most welcome as did the receptionist Anastasia. Maria gave us a guided tour of our room and explained the hotels layout. The dining room is superbly located overlooking the sea surrounded by pine & fig trees. Breakfast is a combination of continental with some hot dishes such as fried & scrambled eggs, mini frankfurters, sometimes beans or mushrooms but absoloutely plenty to choose from. Evening meals change daily and prices are competetive with the local restaurants. The mealtine staff are lovely and Josephine stopped every morning for a chat. The swimming pool is brilliant', extremely cleaned & well maintained. Towels are placed on the sunbeds for people to use. We never had a problem getting a sunbed, the busiest time of day was around 4pm when guests came back from the beaches (hotel does a mini bus drop off at 11am, pick up 4pm.) The guys behind the bar were always smiling & attentive & we learned a lot chatting to them about Albania & Ukraine, always a welcome We cannot fault the hotel it is marvellous. Best tip is hire a car & explore the island too. Without a car there is not much to do or get to

“Setting amazing, views stunning”

Beautiful location in the hills. Best view we have ever had from a balcony, stunning. So you have all the information (as we did not): The beach, Porto Kaminia, is across a busy main road and down a very steep, windy road. The hotel only runs a shuttle at 11am and then back at 4pm. Trying to walk up that steep road at the end of the day, in heat would be very hard indeed. Also the hotel is up a very steep track from the road. The air-con is 15 euros extra each day. Safe is free but you have to ask for a key. There is also tax at an extra 10 euros per day. Rooms are nice but no soundproofing at all and you can hear other guests, especially as in our room there was a piece of plywood in what used to be a door? Balconies close together, so you can also hear other guests. Rooms could do with an update. The hotel bar is very quiet at night. They provide towels for the pool but take your own beach towels. The Taverna Florida along the road towards Argasi is amazing. It would be very dangerous to walk along the main road where there is no pavement, so walking to Argassi not possible. Hope that helps.
