spent 2 weeks at the metaxa hotel this august. friendly, clean and newly refurbished. get the air con-its a must. 5 euros a day. resort is small, plenty of places to eat. mermaids is the same as every other restaurant. the food is very good, lots to choose from. dont bother going to zante town-nothing there. the crusie around the island costs 11e each, you see everything at once. the trip to kefelonia is a must just for the caves and the lake-its brilliant-but beware admission to the two is not included. 8e per person extra. bring more films with you then you think you will need.

lovely beach, plenty of room, nice clear water.

went there august this year. no building, but there is aircraft noise-didnt bother us. the hotel has the worst breakfast i have had anywhere in my entire life. 1 roll 1 slice of ham and a tiny cup of coffee-dont bother. u have to pay for the air con-5 e a day. BEWARE when you take your key and go out the power is stopped to the room, so the air con or anything else doesnt work. The food and drinks at the hotel are a rip off. i would go to the supermarket or the restaurant. People were friendly, but the hotel has no entertainment. take a lot of anti mosquito stuff. plug ins, spray, lotion, you will need it, but still expect to get bitten.

good portion sizes, not bad prices. better than mermaids!

i agree the lamb a la zante was nice. they do the same food as everywhere else, just with frozen veg and spuds in sauce. service was soooooooo slow, went there twice and was the same on both times. dont bother going.

place was full of teenagers, and small children at midnight. nowhere nice to sit, cocktails were ok, barstaff obviously on drugs-very un co-ordinated, and didnt get the recipe right. not worth the walk.

the weakest cocktails ever in tiny glasses-they arnt priced so be careful. its advertised 2 4 5e i think yet when i bought 2 and a coke it came to 9.50! dont bother. it was all pissheads watching the match.

lovely day, payed 25e each, excluding admission to the caves and lakes-beware of this, that 8e each on top. they dont tell you that. but its worth it. take more film with you then you think you will need. and plenty to drink, also dont bother eating where they drop you, its a rip off, walk a bit further on and you can find some lovely places
