IM GOING TO ZANTE ON 5TH OCTOBER FOR THE FIRST TIME IS THE WEATHER STILL OK THEN???
hiya just been to kalimaki on 5th october 2006. weather was really nice apart from a day of rain and thunderstorms. the temperatures got up to 30c one day so it was pretty good for october. We stayed at hotel maralen, which was better than we expected as we went on allocation on arrival. the place was very clean, cleaner came in 6 times a week. hotel entertainment was rubbish tho it didnt start until 10pm and was the usua crap. bingo,deal or no deal,etc. nice clean swimming pool tho and snack bar. 5 mins walk from the turtle beach,sand very dark. Beach not that pretty to look at, have seen better. Kalimaki strip was just 5 mins walk away fro hotel and had plenty of shops,bars and resataurants. not too busy either. If you want somewhere more lively you should visit laganas which is a short taxi ride up the road(costs 7 euros) all in all was a nice holiday, would recommend for people with kids.
