After reading all your comments about the sun beds and parasols, I'm a little bit concerned. I have a 2 year old who obviously I will want a little bit of shade for, how early do you have to be by the pool to get one? We go in 3 weeks time.

We returned from the Village on 27th July after 2 great weeks. The best holiday we have had so far in Zante. In answer to the key system for the power. Did you not think of taking the card of the key ring and leaving it in?? We thought the accommodation was excellent, staff very helpful, very clean. The sunbed situation was bad but if you want a bed all day then I think getting up early is a sacrifice you make especially if you have kids. I was up at 6.40 most mornings but I did not leave my towels on and go back to bed, I stayed there. Would love to go back next year but the price has rocketed £2,300 for the 4 of us.
In answer to the travellers cheque question, Sterling is better because you don't get charged but with Euros you get charged approx 2%

I would recommend this resort and accommodation to anyone. Great place!!
