just returned from our third visit to Zakynthos, the Yria still takes some beating! Wonderfully cold Mythos in iced glasses the best in Alykes. The cheeseburgers with homemade coleslaw simply the best. Vas and Kat still very friendly and have always got time for a chat.Maybe we will be back!

just returned from our 2nd holiday at the beach village. I have to say the apartments are still excellent and Gloria the manager goes out of her way to help you. The disappointing thing this time was that you had to be up at 7.30am or earlier to get a sunbed as everybody was reserving them with towels, which was a major problem as half of the people who had towels on the sunbeds didnt appear until lunchtime or later. Also watch out for the horse and carts which are now outside the apartment gates and plague you with leaflets asking you to eat in their restaurants, we didnt eat in any of these restaurants out of principle.
Alykanas is still a lovely place, but there has been a lot of building work since last year, it has also got a lot busier.
The weather was fantastic, too hot in fact, we arrived in the midst of a heatwave.
If you get a chance do visit Keri and hire a motorboat to visit Turtle island, we did and it was really fantastic...like paradise.
If you are renting a car or moped do go and see the man opposite Letsos Hotel, Cosmos rentals, he does a really good deal.
Hope to return later this year.......

This reataurant is one of the best in Alykanas, we have had three holidays here, and have tried most restaurants, and this one takes some beating! We were given a free bottle of wine most nights (not house wine), and free childrens bottles of drink. The owners,two brothers, go out of their way to ensure you have a good meal. Had a brilliant party for my daughters birthday here. Little Aris the young 12 year old waiter is the best, my daughter fell in love with him, anyone going say hello to him. Eat earlier or later because you can wait a while for your food if you arrive when it is busy. We will return!

Just returned from yet another visit to Zante. Yria still the best place to go in Alikes for excellent draught Mythos, and wonderful snacks, the homemade coleslaw is a must! Vassilis still has his excellent dry sense of humour, and is as charming as ever! A nice place to unwind with good company, drinks and food!
Hope to see you again soon Vassilis! Love from the family on the moped (Mandy, Nigel, Jack and Charlotte}.

Just returned from Alikanas (our 5th visit). We were so disappointed to find the restaurant was closed, and missed eating there very much! Nothing compares to this restaurant, sorry to see Dennis and Dimitris gone! Fond memories of times gone by.

Just back from our 5th visit to Alikanas. Found this restaurant to be excellent, the food was delicious, the service was friendly and the atmosphere and setting of the restaurant was wonderful. Always got free wine, brandy or fruit to end the evening. Well worth the walk, try it you wont be disappointed!

Typically greek apartments, set in wonderful gardens. We had a 2 bed roomed apartment, which was very spacious, but very basic, no kettle, no corkscrew, 3 knives for four of us. The maid service was excellent with clean sheets and towels on a regular basis, although the towels were tiny hand towels! The beds are rock hard but who cares after a metaxa or two? Brilliant location, 2 minutes from the beach, and a short walk to the shops and restaurants.
There was a lot of noise at night from the locals going up and down the road on their scooters doing wheelies etc. Also dogs seemed to bark almost constantly, there were two dogs chained up at the apartments. Our apartment was above the Greek's living accomodation, and they liked to sit outside to all hours with their family all laughing and talking well into the small hours.
All in all a nice family run place to stay, but in need of a facelift, and do take your earplugs!

What can I say? Perfection cannot be improved upon! Yet again 10/10 for Vassillis, his food is excellent, the best crepes i have had in Zakynthos, his beer is chilled to perfection, and his bar is a lovely place to spend an hour or two watching the world go by.

Yet again, excellent service, wonderful food, and lovely people! This really is the best taverna in Alykanas, that is why we return again and again, the brothers are so friendly and go out of their way to please you. The food is good and the service is excellent, although i have to say not the same without Antonio and Angelo, bring them back please!

Hope to return later this year with Charlotte, so get the cheese omelettes ready George!

Miss you all, thanks for many happy memories spent in your taverna, as the sign says, "the home of good food and happy times"

Hi Claire, spent a week at the beach house at the end of May, and there is no sand on the beach, just pebbles and stones.Hope this helps, im sure you will enjoy it anyway!
