Alavastros Villa - Vasilikos

Η φιλοξενία που προσφέρει το κατάλυμα μου θύμισε παλιές εποχές που η ανθρωπιά και το φιλότιμο κυριαρχούσε. Το κατάλυμα βρίσκεται σε ιδανικό σημείο στους πρόποδες του βασιλικού κοντα σε 3 φανταστικές αμουδερες παραλίες,ένα κατάλυμα ευρύχωρο,καθαρό με όλες της ανέσεις και προπαντός σε προσιτές τιμές. Το συνιστώ ανεπιφύλακτα.

Καταπληκτικό μέρος! Η οικοδέσποινα πολύ ευγενική και γενικά το περιβάλλον πολύ φιλικό. Το σπίτι είναι πλήρως εξοπλισμένο με όλες τις συσκευές, είναι ευρύχωρο και καθαρό. Το συστήνω ανεπιφύλακτα!!

Amazing place with friendly people

It’s an oasis, a paradise.

Really love the place! Super cute place to stay if you are in Zakynthos!

Peaceful self catering place in Zakynthos, close to most of the nicest beaches on the island and a few minutes drive from shops and restaurants. Super friendly owners, lovely orange tree lined garden, private patio and your own personal security guy: Rocky - a super friendly (seldomly) white terrier who’s always up for some belly rubs.

Our welcome to Alavastros The minute you enter, the delicate smell of Jasmin touches your nose. We had two weeks of peace and quietness. We'd like to thank the dear family of Alavastros. Before deciding, we did some searching on the internet to find a good hotel for a 2 weeks stay. There where many to choose from, but Alavastros kept popping up. Here, You're in a good spot in Zakynthos. A rental car is a must in this area. You'll be close to some beautiful beaches, some historical sights and plenty of hikes. We had contact via WhatsApp. The response is quick and informed. You have a specific question about where to find this or that? She will look into it and gives good tips. Breakfast is brought in your room. And, ;-) We gained weight. GOOD breakfast. You can cook but we didn't. Good supplied kitchen but a bit outdated. The garden is a nice and tranquil place, and as mentioned, with a soft Jasmin smell. Lingering in one of the Hammocks is heaven. There're a couple of places where one can sit and quietly read. You see and hear animals. What can one expect in a green surrounding like that? Goats, dogs, insects, chicken, donkey, peacock, lots of birds and an occasional cat. Rocky is the only animal you'll see in the courtyard. Small dog of the family. Friendly little guy. Give him some ham, and he'll be your new best friend. There's 1, 'one' floor apartment. There's one step to get in. So beware if you're hindered in your mobility. The bedroom is small but it didn't bother us. We're used to a waterbed, so we're spoiled. The bed had a reasonable soft and comfy mattress and slept really good. There're a few drawers to put your stuff. The tv works but we didn't have time to watch television. Good mosquito nets and shutters on the outside too. Felt safe to sleep with the windows open and no airco on. One day we had a small problem with warm water. We texted and there seemed to be a power problem on the island. It got fixed rather quick. You have a small private garden at the back. Comfy enough if you need 'alone' time. Umbrella for shading. You even have a drying rack but no pins. The lady of the house, can wash for you too. You have to dry it yourself. Friendly neighbors. Important too and that they are not fed up with the tourists, like you sometimes notice in touristic places. Good WiFi the whole time. Garden too. The road Alavastros is at, is the only connection between the most southern town, Vasilikos, and Zante, the main capital. Plenty of places to dine and in different price ranges, The best place we kept going back, and had the best food around, was Restaurant Agnanti. It's up the road towards Zante, 10 minute walk. It's a family run restaurant with excellent food. Short walk and partly with a pedestrian side walk. Argassi is close by, and a small busy 'loud' town. You have a few supermarkets there. Day trips offers enough. It's advised to shop around. Would we go back? Definitely.

Amazing place to stay, family business. Warm welcome, very clean and amazing view. Hosts are so lovely always ready to help.
