Nice and quiet, busiest time was for breakfast and it wasn't exactly busy.
Pool was very quiet in the day if you wanted to just read a book and chill.
Towels changed everyday.

Lovely room, bug free hot and cold water. The Air Con was lovely and cold. It was quiet at night and only a 5 minute walk if that to the beach. The owner was polite and has been supportive throughout the stay. He even let me pay once I turned up as there was a problem with the bank transfer. I will be recommending this to everyone back at home

The host was absolutely wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble. They even brought six packs of bottled water to studio to save us carrying it. Any concerns were dealt with immediately and the host was very pro-active 😊
The studio was very clean and housekeeping was fantastic 💖
The location was good. It was a fair walk to the resort centre but this gave the added bonus of a peaceful space.

Close to beach and when you go out, you can hear the sound of the sea. The apartment is vast - 1 bedroom, 1 twin room, a kitchen, a living-room and a nice terrace. The property is equpped with everything one could possibly need. The owner was very helpful - I found there was noi hairdryer and I called him at 9 p.m. to ask for one as it was important to me. He brought one the same evening. The bathroom is also very convenient too - with glass door instead of shower curtains. There is a good parking just close to the property.

The warmth of the Zakynthians.
The warmth of the Zakynthians. The food and the easy-going relaxed atmosphere. Take some time to talk to the waiting staff, as well as the owners of the establishments. You’ll learn so much and begin to feel the place.
If I had to mention any negatives it would have to be the tourists who expect too much, too quickly and are surly and rude to the hosts.
Try Anatolikos Apartments Bar. It’s Al fresco and totally peaceful. Olga, Tina, George, Yota and Adonis will make you feel right at home. Try No Name Bar or Hakuna Matata Bar or Paradisio or the Palm Tree. All are so welcoming and friendly. The Apoll Taverna is excellent and Jani, Angela, Haris, Kiki and all are too much fun. Our go to place. Fishalida is also excellent. Always recognised from previous years and always warmly welcomed. Your meal with the sea and views of Kefalonia are a must do. Whispers Bar for a drink and dance and grand traditional music playing, live. Nikos is a skilled host for whom nothing is too much trouble.

This village has grown considerably over the last 30 years.
This village has grown considerably over the last 30 years. To a purist this might not be the best thing but the people are every bit as friendly as ever. Plenty of restaurants and taverns. It’s up to the individual to find the attractions but they are all advertised and within easy reach.

Superb area.
Superb area. Not so pricey as laganas, quiter also, but many possibilities to eat and drink. We came here for the fifth time. We switched the alykes to agios sostis during this summer and are very disapointed. Maybe kalamaki could be better then alykes/alikanas, but we didnt stay in kalamaki so could not say (maybe next year). There are also some hilly climbings, you can do with a quad.

Quiet location.Ideal for a chill out holiday.
Plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from
.Our favourites were Spikey's Bar for drinks.
Piccadilly,Koukounari,Hotel Asteria and Al Fresco for food.
Alykes is quite small,only one long street,so quite easy to get around.
Car and four by fours are very popular and there are plenty of hire companies.Driving can be adrenalin inducing,as the drivers tend to ignore centre lines and the cars do not appear to be equipped with indicators.

Well located if you have a car, all places up north are at less than 30 minutes away. Zakinthos town is just a 15 minute drive away and the south an extra 15 min after Zakinthos.
It has a very holiday village feel to it, full of brits, Dutch, polish and the average visitors age must be around 50-60 yo. So there are lots of options but at the same time it’s pretty laid back and quiet.
We ate in taverna Astoria which was fantastic and cheap (40 euros for 2 with beers, starter and main). Also had a gyro at the main grill shop, can’t remember the name but you can’t miss it when you’re in town (15 euros for both for giant pita gyros and drinks).
On the main road there is also a guy selling boat tours, we took a 4 hour boat ride to the shipwreck beach, caves and 3 stops for swims in turquoise waters, it was the highlight of our stay and one of our best holiday memories. The boat was pretty small compared to other huge vessels with 200 tourists on it that we saw passing by, our one had around 30 people, the crew was very nice and this only cost us 25 euros per head. Need to book at least one day prior to the trip.
This was our best ever stay in Greece! :) The owner is a local, highly educated, extra friendly and super caring person, also Maria too;) The building is freshly renovated, almost everything was new in the studio. Fully equipped kitchen, extra large balcony with a breathtaking view on the mountains also to the sea, not by mentioning the great parking possibilities at the hotel. About the area, Alykes is well equipped with shops and restaurants, more focusing on holidays spent for by recharging yourself.
Absolutely LOVED our stay here. The apartment was very big for the two of us, super clean great wifi (was able to work remotely here & stream) and the hosts were delightful and friendly. The location is the best part, you are just a few steps away from a lovely beach and right next to all the shops you can think of and many yummy restaurants to choose from. Definitely recommend heading over to Pitta Break for some delicious and cheap gyros - literally 2-3 minutes walk from the accommodation :)
The restaurant in the garden is wonderful, we had really nice evenings there and the food is good.
The staff is great, helpful, friendly.
The location of the hotel is very good, it's a 5-10min walk from an animated area of Alykes, family friendly, with restaurants and a nice beach. 20-30min drive from key attractions.
The pool at the hotel is really nice and we enjoyed spending some time there after at day at the beach or on the sea.
location was perfect for a night out in Alykes. We only booked for one night as we were waiting for guests to vacate our own villa and needed somewhere to freshen up and get our heads down for one night. It was just as we expected which was basic, clean, no frills and cheap accommodation. We will say though that the beds were very comfortable and we had a sound nights sleep after a long and gruelling journey. we would book again.
Great place to stay in Alykes, 3 minutes away from the beach, the restaurants, the shops but still quiet and peacefull. They have a nice restaurant terasse where you can take you breakfast and dinner or just enjoy some drinks at the bar. I loved how close it is to everything you need. The place is clean and nicely decorated in a modern style, very comfy and stylish. Staff is welcoming and accommodating to your needs. Loved it!
The hotel is really nice.
Swimming pool, room, bar, everything was really good.
Besides the big pool, we had access to a small pool also, which is shared between 5 apartments, so that was really nice.
Room service clean room every day, new towels every day. 5 stars for cleaning.
The room is big and new, the bed was really comfy.
Beach is close, restaurants, bars, everything is around 10-15 minutes walk from hotel.
Everything was perfect and exceptional. The villa was even better than the pictures. Right on the beach, private pool, modern and clean interior, comfortable beds and spacious interior. Location is incredible. Owners are super friendly and helpful. Right next to the owners’ beach club so easy access to coffee, food and drinks. This was arguably the nicest villa we have ever stayed I.
Pros.
Nice outdoor space,the yard included the pool, a big barbecue space. We were surprised to find 3 friendly cats and one hen which we fed daily. The AC in the rooms were powerful and they immediately cooled the air. Also, nice view from the rooms.
It was near the beach and the host let us check in faster (without an extra charge).
The property is located just minutes away from beach, restaurants and shops. The beach is sandy with cristal, clear water (perfect for children). The rooms are completely renovated and very clean. Staff was very friendly and very helpful in giving recommendations of things to do. Thank you, Denise, for your kindness!
We had a fantastic stay in Letsos hotel and will definitely return. Great location just a five minute walk to the beach, with lots of restaurants and shops on your doorstep. All the staff were very friendly and helpful, room was clean. Loved the pool bar, the cocktails were amazing. Perfect for a couples getaway!
Everything. Beautiful green area, nice and clean apartament with tastefull furniture, well equiped kitchen for 4 people (parents and two young boys). Close by the sandy beach Alykes and perfect location for arriving in max 30 driving minutes in every interest point from the beautiful island.
The location is perfect, a few steps from the sea, with stunnig view, we really enjoyed the private beach with christal clear water. Good restarurants, bars, supermarkets are in walking distance.
