Apollo Studios

Are you there Christine Mcdonald,this is just to let you know that Geoff  had a heart attack on Thursday 29th.Had an opperation the same day,all went well so he should be home on Monday 3rd.Hospital said he should make a full recovery,and may never have another one,although its not 100% gauranted.Dont know if they will still go to the Apollo in Sept,i think its all down to the doctor's.Christine was devastated on thursday,but now she knows the danger is over and he should make a full recovery she's a lot better now.

nice to hear from you alan and allglad to hear chris still mad wouldnt be the same without madness i will write to chris with e mail address ive wrote twice but she didnt reply what date are they away we go 24th september you must be in two minds about retiring keep in touch

We stayed here for 2 weeks 9th may-23rd may and we thought it was excellent.Colin and demitri are top blokes and the bbq and quiz nights are great fun studios are very basic but what do you expect for a self catering holiday.We're gonna be going back maybe not next year but the year after.

hi all  our friends are going back this year and im comeing back next year ! twice. cant wait to see everyone.such a great place babbis is an allright friend but nothing more.and we are all queing up to dunk him in the pool ! ha ha! everyone who is going out to alykes have a great time. tell eveyone in the apollo christene, ted, hannah,and wendy said hello cant wait to see you next year 

Hello Peter,can't say as i saw any local transport in the 2week's we were there.Plenty of places on the main street to book any trips out.The nearest boat trip is on beach which is behind the Astoria hotel?i think thats what its called.Have a ride on the train while your there i am sure you will enjoy the trip.Have good time while your there,our friends are there same time,you may bump in to them Chris&Geoff from Manchester.

Stayed here Sept05,the four of us had a great time.Dimitris,what can you say about him,well we must say he's a great chap,likes a drink&a laugh with everyone.Harry (Babbis)what a nice lad,so dont believe what you read  girls he's ok.Colins a nice enough chap,try's to keep you all happy with his quiz/bbq nights.Breakfast round the pool was realy nice, well cooked just like all the food at the Apollo.Thanks to you all for making this a great holiday..

Stayed at Apollo last August,2nd time wed been.Would definitely go again.

Evil child Emma misses Colin,and will be back to haunt him soon.Will never drink tequila again because of Dmitris crazy night.

Merry Christmas Kim .Georgio. & family, from Chris ,Ted ,Wendy & family,

We went to these apartments at the end of Sept for 2 weeks, colin was very helpful to our party of 4, dimitri loves it when your spending money, we stayed in the room right next to the pool, we had the best room in the block i think. there was a lot of noise from the bar, but that was usually because I was singing so loud.  negative side was being close to the salt flats encouraged mosi's my boyfriend got bit 20 times in one night and they became infected, i never get bitten in greece and they had a good nibble at me also.  good location, i would not go back not because of the appollo just because i prefer other islands.

like the last letter i have just read except we didnt leave until early hours 19th which was a bit naff but met some great friends there.mostly a good holiday apart from the electrics going out all hours of the day,hot water whenever it happened,sockets hanging out of the walls,beds falling apart .Now onto the good part of the hols,dimitri and colin the demon duo,they were ok dimitri frisky girls so watch him,colin is i suppose a loveable bully of sorts,babbis is his fathers clone,the bar and pool were brill had some good laughs there,all in all would go back when poss but maybe when some renovation work done

we stayed at the apollo from the5sept-18sept.and it was alright. we where in the big place at the end and it was a bit dark on the night as there is no lights. the pool bar is a great night out ,demeatri is a good man but dosnt like to see you not drinking,so if your not feeling up to it expectto get hit with the sambuca and tequila slammmers.collins ok but you have to get what type of humour he has got. and then theres babis cheeky little sod, ha ha  no he got on very well with my lads but anyone  whose met him or going to meet him will know what i mean...p.s. the showers are to low even for danni devito.

We were supposed to be going here on the 29th of September for 1 week but the travel agent called me on the 24th to tell me this hotel has been closed down due to health and safety reason's does anyone else know anything about this?  We have been moved to the Perkes Hotel

We stayed at the Apollo during the last week in August, had a fantastic time. Colin is a top bloke, despite soaking my son and daughter. Really disappointed that we had to come home, could easily have stayed there for two weeks. Apartment was fine, basic, but what do u expect on a self catering holiday.

HI, YES THIS IS ABI'S AND ALEX'S MUM. ABI TALKS ABOUT THE GIRLS ALL THE TIME. YES WE ARE GOING TO THE APOLLO ON THE 8TH OF AUGUST SO

Katherine Brown-Is that Abbies mum?  This is Carys and Erins mum and we have also booked to go back to the Apollo next year.  We're going on the 15th August for two weeks and we can't wait either though it seems a long way off.  Will you all be there around that time as the girls would love to meet up with your two again.

Dear Donna ive asked a questions a few 3 paragraphs down, regards wendy

This is our second time to the Apollo had a great time again and the children had great fun with Colin. We stayed in the old block which are the apartments for 4 people and they are great with 2 seperate bedrooms  kitchen with fridge , kettle, toaster, table and chairs and most equppment for cooking a meal, there are no egg cups and we do take our own cups and sharp knives for cutting fruit etc.

Dear Donna, I hope you had a good time, looking forward to your comments, could you also advise on what you thought of the airport someone has said that a new building is open for arrivals but you have to use the shed like building for the return, and also don't know whether to take euro travellers cheques, sterling travellers cheques or euros.  Regards Wendy

Anyone who is staying in the Apollo apts they are fantastic.  The pool bar with Demitri he is a great host he cant do enough for you.Colin he is doing a good job, see you in 2007. Try the food in the pool bar its great and the restaurant you wont go wrong.

hi i saw a girls worried  abot babbis, and your 12 well dont be scared about babbis hes sweet he wont hurt you he just likes  to play if you ignore him he shuld not bother you !   but you should get to no him hes very funny!      any 1 who is taking children aged  11-  14 they will have a lot of fun as babbis will make them laugth  he likes girls a lot but likes hangin out wif bois!

 would any one be able to do me a big fava if you are going to apollo would you say to colin for me and say(laura from newcastle)  said hello and can not wait to se you in october and ask colin say say hi to babbis please xx thnx you some 1 plz tell colin that thnx xxxx

to every one who is a bit unsure about apollo they are very friendly , helpfull, the rooms are ok and they get cleaned so do not worry, they do excellent food.  babbis is prob the best 1 he is very funny, sweet + nice , try 2 make friends wif him, he is a little cheeky but its funny!!  he will try to help you , babbis  is ok at speaking english but u have 2 listen 2 him!   me + him got on very well he wanted 2 marry me!   i am going bak 2 c him in ooctober + in may !!! i can not wait   EVRY 1 WILL HAVE A GREAT TIME AT APOLLO  its great espeachelly colin + babbis !!!!

People seem to think i am a moaner, I too have been to many basic appartments on Greek islands but this was by far the worse.  I would love to hear from anyone else that was put into the 'old block' above the kitchen. I would be more than surprised if they would recommend it.  I stand by what I said about the appartments, the room was awful and the towels a disgrace! The appartment block shown in the brochure and on the internet looks much nicer, maybe the cleaner spends more time there!

Myself and my two children aged 10 and 12 have just returned from two fantastic weeks at the Apollo Studios in Alykes.  As previous comments the rooms are basic but clean.  Our towels and bedding were changed on a regular basis in the two weeks and we never had a problem with them at all.  We loved the atmosphere at the apollo and my biggest problem was dragging the children away from the pool as they made so many friends and wanted to spend all their time there.  Colin was great with the children and he was another reason they loved the pool as they tried very hard to get him in the water. A good way of getting around the island is through Colin which gives you more flexibility with timings and where you want to go.  The food is great in the pool bar and especially so in the taverna. We hired a fan and safety deposit box from the apollo and travellers cheques can be cashed comission free at Montes supermarket.  It is a quiet, peaceful and beautiful location which I would recommend to anyone. There is that saying you can please some of the people some of the time but never all of the people all of the time.  I hope I have helped to allay some of the fears but when you think of the majority of the comments on this site as being very favourable surely that should say it all. Have a great time we wish we were still there.......... 

Hi Donna, thanks for that, have a good time, look forward to your comments,

I think we've got a 1 man band

Hello Wendy

Im going to the Apollo next week I'm sure its going to be fine. I will definately put a review on this site on my return and try to find out what is behind this "bad review" lets put it this way you can't please everyone. I have been to many basic studios in Greece that have been OK, and found that you always get the "  MOANER  " no matter how good the apartments are. Be back on 6th Sept.

 

Donna Ste &  Paige

Everyone seems to say great then there is that bad comment about being put in room above a kitchen and it was terriable, can anyone shed any light on this I am worried I booked this holiday a year ago, Ive been saving like mad and the last thing I want is to end up in this block, does anyone else know about this block, I now the apollo is full when I go and if I was put in this naff room then they wont move us cause there is no where to move us to.

To Everyone who is "worried" about Apollo Studios - they are basic but clean and in a lovely location; you will have a great holiday there - 2 minutes walk to the beach and 10 minutes walk from the town centre.  The pool area is great and well worth using, particularly as it has a bar/snack bar where you can get food and drink all day and night!  Babis is a lovely boy (a little cheeky sometimes) but great fun so don't worry about all these reports from girls who've stayed there!!

am gettin woried bout the things tht ppl are sayin babbis (or wot eva his name is) am 12 years old nd i don't want him 2 hang around near me wot shud i do??

am gettin worried now, can u plz tell how gd the apartments are plz??? will it b fun 4 my 2 children aged 12 nd 15

 i feel the same all the comments have been great about these apartments and I read the one the bad one and im unsure now, i go on the 20th Sept, can you put a comment on this site when your back Donna please

We're going to the Apollo Studios on 23rd August for 2 weeks. Get a little worried  when I see a bad report but i'm sure everything will be OK.

We were horrified when we were taken into a different block than the one advertised.  The apartment was dark, above a kitchen and far too hot.  There was no light in the bathroom and this was reported on the first day there, nothing was done about it and there was still no light when we left 2 weeks later!  The shower leaked through the wall into the kitchen and bedroom, again we reported it but nothing was done about it. There is a balcony/terrace that is shared between three families, too bad if you want privacy!! As it goes we were lucky enough to have some really good neighbours and that actually helped us through a bad time.  Towels are the worst i have ever seen, stained and very gruby, i would suggest you take your own. Colin was great fun and tried hard to entertain the kids around the pool, top marks for his efforts. About time someone pushed him in though . A very friendly atmosphere at the pool.

HELLO EVERYONE, JUST ANOTHER QUICK QUESTION DOES ANY ONE KNOW WHERE WE COULD CASH EURO CHEQUES FOR NO COMMISSION. IS THE AIRPORT A NITEMARE IVE HEARD ITS AWFUL.

in answer to gary,s just make sure you dont drink too much before flying dont want to be escorted off.also we have heard that zante and apollo is great specially in september

you will have to leave your room at 12 noon and pay money for a other room for the night.  i no that babbis tells you he loves and flirts with you when you are there and when your not there is flirtin wid other gilrs but when your there you get some great memorys for the rest of your life! i was just glad i was the first girl he went out wid this year, and will be the last to go out  wid him at the end of the season in october, and hopefully the fist in 2006 in may when i go for my 13th birthday.but can not wait till babbis comes to my house with colin !!!!!!!!! I CAN NOT WAIT

i went to apollo on 1st may so i was the only girl around babbis age cause the other girl was bout 5. he loved me and i loved him we got on so well in the pool together playing, watching dvds, play fiting, playing pea nuts etc... we would try to chase each over round the pool and on the last day we were doing that and i ripped his new top by accident he did not mind he liked it!  he would come round to my room and we would take at the door. we had a lot of laughts together we  just stared into each overs eyes. he write in my activy fun book that he loved me and allways would!! then when i said i was going he was like no no dont go! he would wolf wissile at me ! and we just had a great time i can not wait cause i am going in october for the last week and we will have a brillant time then. and we are going to try and get over for my 13th birthday in may ! and babbis is maybe going to come to my house this year with colin i hope he does cause i have lots of things to do with him!!  and babbis also asked me to marry him !!!!! and his dad was like yes yes !!! we had a great 2 weeks together and i will allways like him and can not wait to see him later this year and in october and may ! i love you babbis ! and i am so glad i was the FIRST  girl you loved this year !!!!!!!

hi were off to apollo studios alykes 17 / 7 /05 can u tell me r there any safety deposit boxes in rooms or in main reception many thanks

We have just returned from Alykes and we stayed at the Apollo Apartments. We thought the apartments were in a fabulous location, quiet, which is what we required, but near enough to the town if you wanted something more lively. The apartment themselves are very basic, but no more so than the rest of Greece, however we did encounter a couple of minor problems, such as:- Cold showers in the morning, no air conditioning which in 40 degree heat is very uncomfortable, even with the help of a hired fan (which did f**k all!). We had a wonderful balcony in room 15, it was furthest away from the pool and it was also on the top floor so was very private. The pool area was fantastic, we never struggled for a sun lounger, and some days had the pool to ourselves. Watch out for the local old greek chap who rides down to the apartments side saddle on his Donkey, its very amusing. We reccomend the cocktail bar Viragos near the hotel, fantastic owners! The beach is a stones throw from the apartments and is excellent. All in all, we enjoyed our holiday lots.

when we went 2 apollo it woz gr8, one of the best holidays eva, babbis was a bit of a flirt (and did try it on wiv me) but it after a while it all went in my favour with free drinks etc, would luv 2 go back! xxxx

Whats the airport like on a Tuesday night going back to Birmingham, Ive heard its a nitemare.

Hi everyone, to answer some of the recent questions: from Apollo Studios you are about 25-30 minutes walk from Alykanas but it's all on the flat so easy walking and also easy for pushchairs etc.  There is at least one silver jewellery shop in Alykes itself and also another one in Alykanas; worth checking in all the jewellery shops as many of them sell both. Regarding keeping your room on the day you leave, you will have to speak to your tour operator but if your flight is at 8.30pm you will be picked up around 4-4.30 as they have to do multiple pick-ups on the way, so not long to wait after leaving your room at noon; just relax in the pool bar and let Dimitri look after you! 

does anyone know the e mail address for the apollo? Can we book direct with them? thanks!

Hello everyone, there seems to be some really good comments about the apollo we are going on the 20th September, can anyone help with a couple of questions......is it a long walk to Alykanas? I know greek islands have lots of shops that sell gold jewerally is there any shops that sell silver jewerall ? is is right that all rooms have kettles and toasters ? our flight home is about 8.30pm so we will be asked to leave our room at 12.00 noon do they offer any room to have a wash or are you aloud to keep your room ? look forward to your response thank you

. We have only been back from Alykes just over a week & we miss the place already Hannah is missing Harry,we had a great time there, everybody made us welcome like they always do & Dimitri he his a top bloke . The apartment we had was great, plenty of room for the three of us.

i have allready added 2 commants but i want to add a pic here is a picture of me and babbies me age 12 and babbies age 14  he really liked me and i liked him he was really funny and silly !!!!!!!!!!!

We are going to Apollo studios,6th September 05.We are in our early 60s 50s 40s.We hope we are not to old for these studios,has anyone in this age group been here,we all like a good drink,also love a good laugh.Is it best to take sterling trav cheques or euros.Which are the best bars&eating places.It sounds an OK place anyone any comments,that may help us when we arrive.

To anyone who has any queries about the Apollo it is very lovely!

WE ARE STAYING AT THE APOLLO IN SEPTEMBER WE LOVE THE GREEK ISLANDS FIRST TIME IN ZANTE, WE ALWAYS TAKE A SAMLL GEORGE FORMAN GRILL AND A KETTLE IS THERE KETTLES IN ALL ROOMS, ARE THE APARTMENTS OK, THE FRIDGE DOES NOT SOUND LIKE A BOEING 747 TAKING OFF DOES IT CAUSE I ALWAYS GET A NOISY FRIDGE, THANKS.

Hi, in answer to some of the questions regarding location and facilities at Apollo Studios: you are approx 2 minutes walk to the nearest beach which is the top end of Alykes beach which is nice and quiet but you do have to pay for sunbeds (five euros per day for two).  There is a bar onsite next to the pool which is open 9am to 2am serving drinks, breakfast, bar snacks etc during that time, there are loads of sunloungers around the pool and I've never had a problem getting one, even when it's busy there. There is a restaurant onsite open from around 6pm which is excellent value for money, great food and very popular. There is another bar opposite (Virago, on the way to the beach), a supermarket about 5 mins walk towards the main street in Alykes and more shops and a bigger supermarket in Alykes itself which is about 10 minutes walk.  The rooms are very clean, all with balconies and will have a kettle and basic cooking facilities.  In short(!) you've chosen a really great location as it's generally very quiet at that end of town and the Voutos family are very welcoming and friendly...have a great holiday!

just booked to go to Apollo Studios in May and just wondering how well equipped they are. Is there a kettle etc. Can anyone help me?

We're staying here in May 05 and would like some information which the tour operators neglect. How long is a walk to the beach or town? How easy is it to get a pool-side sunlounger? Any recommended restaurants or bars nearby? Many thanks in advance.

Hi, I've just stumbled apon this website and felt I just had to leave a comment, My wife and I stayed at the Appolo apts in Alykes during the first and second week of Oct 04 and it was just bliss!We had heard that the food was good there before we went and we were not disappointed, I think we must have gone through the menu! The Appollo is about 10 min from the centre of the resort, 2 mins from the beach and has it's own really great pool/bar area. If your looking for a relaxing holiday with some friendly people then this could be the one for you, we definately will be back. P.S Clint is hilarious!

Hi Wendy

Just dug out the leaflet and the train goes from the central office on the left hand side halfway into the town opposite Supermarket Montes. Ask anyone. Departs at 11.30 and returns at 14.00. Also at 18.45 return 21.15. Mind you there was a late one and you could have a meal at the taverna and there was a band but that one was after us. Well worth it if you want to see typical Greece. Adults 10 euros, kids 5.

Gill left a message saying that she had been on a train into the mountains and been to a church and a taverna and had free wine, can you tell me more about this trip what time you went how much when did you come back etc. thank you

Hello im staying at the appollo next week and need to know if they have hair dryers and an iron!

Thank you victoria x

Just to add on a bit - make sure you see the Blue Caves and Shipwreck with the Golden Dolphin - brilliant. Also visit all the lovely shops and go to Alykanas where there are even more shops. Visit the Virago Bar opposite the Apollo and the Paradise which is just down the road from the Apollo on the left right by the sea (turn right by the tennis courts). A great taverna if you walk along the beach to the left for about 15 - 20 minutes. Close your eyes halfway because of the nudist beach!! In the town they advertise a railway excursion into the real Greece in the mountains and you will visit a church and a taverna with free wine - about 7 p.m. I loved it.

The Apollo is really nice and very friendly with a lovely restaurant next door. You can't see the sea but it is only a couple of minutes walk away if you can tear youself away from Dimitri. As I haven't stayed there I am afraid I can't comment on the courtesy room.

Enjoy.

there seems to be good comments about the apollo, what are the views like from this property can you see the sea for the example, are the rooms ok.
our flight back home is 20.55 are they helpful when it comes to a courtisy room or will they let you keep the room until you go

Iv'e stayed here three times now and loved every minute. The rooms are very very clean, with quite a lot of space. The family that run it are lovely and never seem to forget a face. They'll remember you the next time you visit (you will DEFINATELY want to come back). Thank you for the best times of my life Apollo! xxx

AFTER READING ALL THE PAST REVIEWS ON TH APOLLO STUDIOS MUST ADMIT
WAS A BIT WORRIED AS HAVING 2 CHILDREN ASWELL WAS DEFINATELY DEBATING ON CHANGING THE HOLIDAY. WELL JUST LIKE TO SAY WE HAD THE MOST WONDERFUL HOLIDAY IN AUGUST 2004 HAD A LOVELY APARTMENT WHICH WAS CLEAN AND SPACIOUS. THE POOL WAS EXCELLENT AND WAS NOT BUSY THE BEACH WAS SUPERB ESPECIALLY FOR THE CHILDREN AND THE RESTAURANT WAS THE BEST WE WENT TO IN ALYKES. THE ACCOMODATION WAS RUN BY THE FAMILY AND WAS VERY RELAXED AND FRIENDLY. COULD NOT HAVE PICKED A BETTER ACCOMODATION OR RESORT. HELLO TO DIMITRI AND FAMILY WHO WERE GREAT EVEN THE LOVELY LADY WHO DONE ALL OUR CLEANING. WITH REGARDS TO THE DONKEY AND THE DOGS YES THEY DID HAVE A DONKEY AND A PONY AND 2 FAMILY DOGS WHICH WE SAW BUT NEVER HEARD AND MY DAUGHTER LOVED TO SEE.
MET SOME GREAT PEOPLE HI TO GRAHAM AND SHEILA IN ABERDEEN AND THERESEA KEVIN AND HOLLY AND ALL THE OTHER LOVELY PEOPLE WE MET.

AND GUESS WHAT WE HAVE BOOKED ALREADY TO GO BACK IN AUGUST 2005.

My partner and I have just come back from he Apollo Apartments and had an amazing time. The location is perfect 5 mins from beach and 5-10mins from the main stretch of Alykes. The apartments are very big and spacious and a shower mat and curtain were very much welcome.
Lovely pool area and pool bar, Demitri is great and soooo friendly, free shots!!
Before I went I read what other holiday makers had said about the area and the apartments and was very much put off, expecting the worst. Yet there were only 2 dogs which didn't make any noise at all, a donkey we heard once, motorbikes which didn't wake us and so on. After reading that some people had items stolen I did panic. Yet we had out balcony doors open all night and nothing was stolen. In Greece the only theft they get is from the tourists so don't even worry about it. There is a little noise from the pool bar at night but my partner took ear plugs and I can sleep through anything, no problems.
And as for the aparent earliness of the cleaner, I wouldn't call 9.30-10am early!!
The ponderosa is GREAT for food, as is the Apollo Taverna and Virago bar next door to the apartments is great, the owners are soo friendly and we were given 3 free shots each and there were 6 of us.
Beaches are excellent, soft sand and clear water. Try the Jet Ski's, they're great fun.
But don't go on a boat trip organised by the reps, they're crap! Hire a boat from the beach which works out cheaper and you can just go where you want, petrol inc. If you go to Laganas for the day, go on the turtle trip for 1 hr or 3hrs. We went on the 1hr for 10 euros and it was 100% better than the all day trip we paid 35 euros for. and we saw lots of turtles. If you don't see any you get your money back!
If you smoke buy cigarettes from resort cause you can't buy them on the plane.
Had a fantastic holiday, would go back there tomorrow, highly recommended, hope you have as much fun as we did.

Although we did not stay at the Apollo we did eat and drink there a lot of the time. It was great to see Dimitri again. Also Kim and Angela and Dimitri's sons. We had many a good night there now that Dimitri has got some decent music that we gave him. The Apollo restaurant is excellent with some lovely fish and meat dishes. Mike recommends the mixed grill and Gill the squid and whitebait!! Hope to be back soon.
