Two Brothers Studios - (Accommodation in Kalamaki)

We have just got back from Kalamaki, Zante and the resort was great fun. The two brothers is OK it is very basic like most greek accommodation. Only rooms 1-20 have air con and the rest you can hire a fan from the owners luckily we had a decent fan which kept the room just right. Its in a good location just off the main strip so your not kept awake by traffic of bar noise but you may be woken by the local dogs barking and the cockerels! My only complaint is that the overall cleanliness of rooms wasn't really great there was a lot of hair in the bathroom and floor on our arrival and I found a broom and swept it myself most days because it was never done properly. It was splash and dash but you could see the few maids that were there had so many rooms to do in very little time I didn't mind doing it. It is a good location for everything, shops bars etc only few minutes walk and the beach about 10 mins. Book your trips in the resort it is a lot cheaper then the reps prices. Oh and if you go to the water park go after 2pm, get a taxi between you if there is four or more of you it works out cheaper then the organised trips and have freedom with your timing. Also after 2pm it's cheaper to get in because believe me there is not a lot there really, 7 main slides, small lazy river, kids pool and adult pool, it hasn't got the wow factor at all! At least you won't fight for sun beds there are plenty of those!
It's a good place to go, so go if it's your thing I am still discovering the Greek islands and have plenty to go to still so I won't be returning just yet!
 

Zakanthi - (Restaurants in Kalamaki)

Whatever you do DO NOT EAT HERE!!! It was down right blinking awful the worst meal I have EVER had in my life. We were a party of 8 when we ate here, it may look authentic and lovely from the outide but it is truly terrible. It took nearly 2 hours for main course to arrive and when it did 2 of the chicken dishes were undercooked and when we tried to send it back it fell on stony ground - no really - the rude and abrupt waiter refused!! the service the atmosphere and the quality of the food was terrible, we were not the only ones who were complaining either and every other complainee was treated with disregard. When we decided enough was enough we asked for our bill it had been on our table for about a minute when this harsh female waitress came over demanding are you ready? Obviously this was the last straw and told her where to go until we were ready to hand over good money for a terrible meal, it's expensive and not worth any penny of your hard earned money. Don't go there, really, don't! The best places to eat we found were Paris Taverna, Mermaids and Michaelos the service and food was top class and great value for money.
