Закинтос лучшие пляжи

Stunning location with a sea view on Turtle Island. We were thrilled to spot turtles and dolphins using the binoculars we brought along. Dolphins are quite rare on the island, but we were lucky enough to see them twice in one week (during the May holiday). Local fishermen even mentioned that their nets were being raided that week 😂 The house itself could use some maintenance. There are wall sockets that are either loose or non-functional, and exterior doors that are hard to close due to broken parts. During our stay, a section of the roof edge fell off because of concrete rot, posing a safety concern. The beds and bathrooms were satisfactory, and the outdoor kitchen (with an extra refrigerator) and large sofa made for a fantastic dining area whenever we didn't eat out. The swimming pool is spacious (5x10m) and enjoyable. The manager, Anastasia, is friendly, attentive, and quick to address any issues. I read some reviews mentioning WiFi problems, but we didn't experience any. While it may not set speed records, our three teenagers had no issues, and streaming Netflix was smooth. A car is essential if you want to explore the island, but there's a small supermarket just a 5-minute walk away and several restaurants (like “Ole-Ole”) about a 15-minute walk away. The beach below is easily accessible via a path next to the neighbor's house (a 3-minute walk), but with such a great swimming pool, we didn't feel the need to go there often 😎

This sandy stretch of paradise is nothing short of breathtaking. The aquamarine waters are crystal clear, and the beach is immaculately clean. The swimming is simply fabulous, and there are no crowds of tourists to spoil the serenity. It's like having your own private slice of heaven. The icing on the cake? The lack of tourist hordes is a massive bonus. So come on down and enjoy the pristine beauty of this hidden gem.

The beach experience was unpleasant due to the unfriendly and arrogant behavior of the staff. As soon as we parked our scooter in an available spot, an elderly man on a scooter approached us and yelled, pointing towards another area. Confused by his rude and unclear command, we waited momentarily, wondering what he meant. The man then returned and proceeded to lecture us on how things are done at the beach. While his request to park elsewhere would have been reasonable, the lack of respect shown towards us, as guests, was completely unacceptable. In response, we decided to leave and instead enjoy the nearby beautiful beach. It's disappointing to encounter such unpleasant behavior.

There is only a limited area on the beach for people who are not staying at the larger hotels (all the other umbrellas are reserved for hotel guests). The beach itself is not particularly clean, and the water in the sea is decent. However, there are far superior beaches on the island!

Upon initial arrival at Alykanas, the beach may not strike one as particularly impressive due to its proximity to the road. However, upon further exploration, one will quickly come to appreciate the stunning quality of the water, which is particularly well-suited for children. Additionally, there are numerous opportunities for water sports, and visitors can easily rent sunbeds and enjoy a meal directly on the beach.

Whenever we're on the island, we always make sure to visit this place! It's so relaxing to sit in a deck chair either on the sandy beach or among the lush greenery. The best part is that the beach chairs are complimentary! All they ask is that you enjoy a snack or a drink at the beach bar. I can't recommend it enough, especially for families with children.
