Caretta Beach Holiday Village is a family-friendly resort situated in the town of Kalamaki, Zante. There’s a fun park in the grounds, where children can have hours of excitement on bouncy castles, trampolines, pedal go karts, water balls and slot machines. Within Kalamaki itself you’ll find an abundance of shops, restaurants and tavernas.
When you fancy a swim there’s a choice of pools - five to be precise. There’s also a Jacuzzi and a large pool for the little ones. Alternatively, stay dry and play arcade games, pool or table tennis. For those who want to get a sweat on, hit the gym. If you work up a thirst there are three bars serving refreshing beverages, in addition to a snack bar offering some delicious light bites. The grown ups can relax in the hammam or indulge in one of the 15 treatments available from the spa.
The restaurant offers breakfast, lunch and dinner, buffet style. In the evenings you can also visit the Italian a la carte for a more formal dining experience. After dessert, settle down for a great night, thanks to Caretta Beach Holiday Village's weekly entertainment programme.
Apartments are equipped with a sofa bed (in addition to a twin or double bed), air conditioning, a hairdryer, a fridge and a TV. There’s also a furnished balcony or terrace, overlooking either the swimming pools or the mountains. A limited number of swim-up options are available, so if you like a spontaneous doggy paddle book early to avoid disappointment.
The island of Zante has a rich cultural history, with plenty of attractions to explore such as museums, ancient ruins, monasteries and the picture-postcard Blue Caves. A bicycle rental service is available at Caretta Beach Holiday Village, ideal if you want to explore the local mountains. For those partial to a certain drink made from fermented grapes, there’s a museum exhibiting the history of winemaking.
The island's capital, Zante Town is under 20 minutes drive away. History lovers won’t want to miss the Byzantine Museum or the remains of a Venetian fortress. If you’re lucky you might catch a glimpse of Caretta Caretta turtles. You won’t face a long transfer after your flight, as Zakynthos Airport is just five minutes drive away.
