going to alykanas beach village for my 50th birthday with my daughter who also has a birthday the day before me and my grandson is ther plenty to do to keep him occupied and what are the 2 beD apartments like we ARE GOING IN MAY 2003

is anyone going in may 2003 perhaps we could meet for a birthday drink all the info i have been reading sounds very positive and i hope this birthday will be one to remember for me and my daughter my grandson is 12 and i hope he will not be to dissapointed if the pace is to slow for him how much are the horse and carriage and is it near to zante where we want to shop, is there much difference in the prices now we have gone to uros, do you think it is fairly cheap and value for money.as i have blown the bank still who cares we are on holiday but it would be nice to know the average price on meals out and value of money still counts are cah points avaliable, and not forgeting the weather has anyone been this year?

i am here again noticed the studios are verlooking the sea we have booked a 2 bed apartment are ther any facing the sea my grandson would love to see it every morning not sure of the set up there we have asked for a high floor what are our chances of a sea view and if possible what do you reccomendwe do if the position is not what we would like how good are the reps for airtours

got back from alykanas beach village on Wed 21st of May the appartments were really good, spacious and very clean maids in every day no shortage of bog roll!! great places to eat Greedy Greek was our favourite and the magdelins we found epensive as the drinks were pricey the horse and carriage was free if you eat at the greedy greek but it would take you to alkes for 7 euros went to Relaz in alykes it was good and fairly cheap walked back its not that far the weather was fantastic and the hotel staff very helpful as we had no air tours rep on board when we arived at the airport so did not think much of that if you go try the trip to the blue caves and shipwreck it was agood day booked through dinnois allot cheaper they really look after you the guide from new zealand she was a barrell of laughs even though the sea was a bit rough she was equiped with pills and gum for sea sickness and very supportive went to zante bit dissapointed the shops are in the back streets spent ages trying to find them its full of jewllery shops but ok if youve money to burn found it alot dearer than previos years but thats down to the euros. go to the JAM IN its friendly and good fun dont use the on site shop it is expensive go further into town and near the greedy greek is a good supermarket alot cheaper and very friendly there is a new supermarket at the junction to town this is very expensive a bottle of coke was 1-70 euros about£1-40p. try a trip in to tsilvi its alot busier and loads of shops and tevernas the beach is much nicer than alykanas and we had at a taxi there it cost 14euros about £8-00p but was worth the trip about 20 minutes either way we used nickos's dad works in the pool bar and he came back for us after three hours and gave us a guided tour of old alykes the senic route but felt it worth the comfort the buses are not very reliable at the moment so it was nice to know youd get back to the front of the hotel safely also try bonkers bar at the bottom of the road it was a good atmosphere and down the side is cosy corner a lovley plaace to eat it is run by an english couple really nice and friendly do a good english breaki! and fairly cheap i recommend the tea and toast its like a secluded secret garden just the place to enjoy the peace and a good pot of tea!! we all had a great time the pools are clean and child friendly the top pool is alot deaper for those unlike me that can swim the sun loungers on the beach cost 3-50 euros per bed but it was loveley on the beah the sea is safe and you can go out a long way but beware of the jelly fish there were a few brought in on the tide in windy conditions otherwise safe buliding works are still in progress at the other hotel the alkanas village but it is improving p.s. fags work out to 25-00 euros about £16-50p for 200 hope all that are visiting will have a great time we certantly did and did not want to come home although all good things come to an end happy holiday's and give my regards to all at Alykanas Beach Village P.S coming home to the appartments the pools are all lite upand looks stunning sorry i didnt meet up with those tat answered my notes but hope you had a great holiday

to keep the record striaght we loved it at Alykanas Beach Vilage could not fault it exept the rep from Air tours was not that good but one thing i will say in her favour she did take away the towels from the sun loungers from the really early risers as there i feel were not enough beds to go round so be there nice and early to secure your lounger have a good one you lucky beggers!!!!!!

hello kathy: there were no cats whatsoever on the complex, but there were a few about in Zante town. But every place we ate we never saw any cats pestering for scraps the only place was cosy corner down the side of Bonkers Bar two very playful kittens so if you have a cat phobia stay clear we found cats more in tsilivi 25 mins down the road so thats a much as i can add for you.Of all the Greek Islamds i have visited it was clear of cats, not to mention you may come across the odd one but we certainly did not see any in the resturants except relax in tisiliv hope you have a brill time

hello nicola there had been some building work still in progres when we were at the village next door but for all those that stayed there they said it was minimul the appts looked good so i hope you have a good hol the weather was great in May and hope this helps soften and disapointments which i hope are all sorted by now otherwise all seemed ok have a good holiday

ann the beach is sandy and safe kosmar do holidays to Alykanas but i must admit there were no delays with Air Tours either way and the only failing was the rep at the appartments and on arrival at Zante i think this new complex is proving to be very popular as it is a great place to stay like Irene the rep didnt bother whatsover with us whilst we where there and we did need some medical advise and the only rep we could get to speak too was miles away in Kalamaki glad to say it was a false alarm but it did leave alot to be desired as regards to someone near the complex if you needed help, in air tours defence the rep in Kalamaki did try and help and phoned the next day to see if all was ok.hope everthing sorts out for you and have a good holiday. one last comment i think alot of people are getting confused by the two appartments as they are both new and with similar names vertually next to each other and of same design perhaps we were lucky with air tours we had no probs exept the reps!!!
