Contessina Hotel

Contessina Hotel

Contessina Hotel is a family-friendly hotel close to the popular tourist resort of Tsilivi on the north east coast of the Greek island of Zante. From the hotel, you can take a short stroll to the town's beach, where the shallow shoreline stretches out into the Ionian Sea. This makes the beach, which has a Blue Flag, a safer option for children. When you're not enjoying the sand, you can relax on the hotel's sun terrace where you'll have views of the resort's tropical garden of palm and native pine trees. After an afternoon of lounging in the Greek sunshine, you can also take a dip in the pool. There's a main pool, and another shallower one for kids. The hotel has a light and airy feel with bright, fresh colours and printed textiles. Statement lighting, elegant furnishings and a bold marble desk give the lobby a sophisticated touch. Outside, the hotel is painted in a traditional Greek style with white shutters on the windows. Beside the terrace you can take a break from the sun at the hotel's bar, which has a contemporary style with glass walls and views across the pool to the garden. The hotel also has a breakfast room.

Contessina is a 200m stroll from the heart of Tsilivi and Tsilivi Beach. Surrounded by olive groves and vineyards, this popular holiday resort still has a traditional Greek feel with family-run tavernas as well as modern restaurants, bars and nightlife. This makes it a favourite on the island for evening entertainment. The island's capital, Zante Town, is a short drive from the hotel. Its streets are lined with Venetian-style buildings, which house shops, bars and restaurants. They lead down to a port from which you can take boat trips around the island. You can also visit the medieval square of St Mark and Solomos Museum.

Contessina offers a buffet breakfast in the hotel's breakfast room. Each morning you can choose from a selection of hot and cold dishes from early morning until noon. Throughout the day you can also order drinks and light bites from the hotel's poolside snack bar.

From Contessina, you can explore the rest of the island either by car, using local transport or by arranging a boat trip from Tsilivi.

The hotel has one irregular shaped adult, freshwater pool and one childrens pool.
