Porto Iliessa Apartments(Apartments in Argassi) |
 | 10/10 |
I STAYED HERE FOR 10 DAYS, AND WISH I HAD STAYED FOR 20. AS YOU WALK THROUGH THE RECEPTION AND GO TO THE POOL AREA, YOUR BREATH WILL BE TAKEN AWAY, YOU'LL SEE WHAT I MEAN. THE BEACH IS SMALL AND THERE WERE ROCKS IN THE WATER BUT ONLY FOR A SHORT DISTANCE, BUT THE SEA IS SO WARM AND LOTS FISH TO SEE IF YOUR SNORKELING. I FLOATED AROUND FOR AGES ON MY SUNLOUNGER IT WAS BLISS. THE HOTEL IS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL THE BARS AND CLUBS & RESTURAUNTS, BUT AT NIGHT YOU CAN'T HEAR THEM IN THE HOTEL. ODI WAS AT THE ROOFTOP BAR AND A GREAT LAUGH, A TOP BLOKE. DON'T FALL FOR THE FREE TEQUILA SHOT AS ITS JUST WATER HEHEHE BUT THE EXPRESSIONS THAT PEOPLE PUT ON ARE HILARIOUS. | |

Great apartments in a location to suit everyone. Great sea views from wherever your apartment is situated within the hotel. Very clean and friendly staff on the reception (apart from one man who was always asleep!! Bless him!!) Fantastic pool (deepest in Argassi - Apparently!!) However we do agree with other comments that the beach is not exactly ideal due to it being shingle beach but hey whos to complain!!! We do however disagree with some comments stating that the roof top bar was loud. Our apartment was directly opposite the door to the bar and we never heard the musicat all!! Thanks to all the staff for a great stay - hope to see you soon!! | ||||||||||

| Reading the comments on here and see that people are wary of the beach, yes its small and not very sandy but do not worry as Zante has plenty of fabulous sandy beaches to go to....the ever popular St Nicks beach wich has a daily bus service from each resort and its free!! There is the small catch that to get back on you have to have the ticket that you receive when you purchase a lounger but at around 5 euros for lounger¶sol its a bargain!!! The beach has every water sport you can imagine and even a masseus if you feel like splashing out..........so to those who are worrying about the beach dont!! you'll love argassi theres something for everyone!! Have a good one. | ||||||||||

| We got moved to these apartments by chance as our booked apartments got double booked but we loved it. The rooms wear cleaned everyday and new sheets were put on the beds. The hotel was in a great location with all the restrants and bars on your doorstep. Also you wear on the directly on the beach. All be it, it was a rubbish beach but the pool was fantastic with plenty of sunloungers and a pool side bar that was open all day. the roof top bar had some fantastic veiws of the pool and sea. The only down side to it was the night time receptionist who from night 1 tryed to sell us a trip with his brothers travel company and wen we said to him that we were not intrested he went in the huff with us and would trough our key at us at night. But apart friom him it was a great hotel.

Been to these apartments 3 times now and they are fab and so central to everything, yeah the beach isn't great, but who needs a beach when the pool is excellent and really big. The beach is still sunbatheable further down from the hotel but the island is full of beautifull beaches. Im staying at these apartments end of august and getting married in Argassi!
Maybe see you all there! | ||||||||||

The beach is ok.... very narrow but the hotel has direct access onto it. It is very quiet and there is enough room to put you beach towel...........but its not white sand and it doesn't run for miles. To be honest... the poolside is so nice you won't bother with the beach. Enjoy your stay... you will love it! | ||||||||||

Please do not listen to any negative comments. This hotel is so beautiful. It's the type you will show your friends in the brochure and the type where you can sit and watch pink sunsets from your balcony! It is very beautiful and everyone is helpful. We are dying to go back! We are not commoners, we know a good hotel when we see one, this is one! | ||||||||||

We found the apartments were ok but did not live up to the four star rating that our holiday company rated them at. The apartment wasn't cleaned very well the only thing the cleaner did was splash a bit of water round the bathroom, make the beds and empty the bins, because the floors were dirty we had to wear our flipflops most of the time around the apartment, the brochure photograph didn't match the resort because it shows a beach outside the apartments, it just didn't exist. Having said that, we have had a few holidays in Greece and this was the best apartment we have stayed in for spaciousness and facilities, the staff were very nice and helpful and the pool was great and we made use of the bar and balcony. We did not rate Argassi as a very nice resort but we hired a car and drove to Tsilivi and had a good time on the beach, but the final nail in the coffin was when we had to return home. The rep escorting us to the airport should have told us to bring water with us as we had to queue for two hours in the heat of the day and then when we got through to what they laughingly call a departure lounge we had to sit on the floor for another hour as there was totally insufficient seating for the number of people waiting for their flights, so all in all we won't be spending any more of our hard earned cash at Zante until they provide proper facilities at the airport.  | ||||||||||
