My wife and I have just returned from a week’s stay at The Athina Apts and enjoyed every minute. After a long tiring day traveling we were met at reception by the owner Athina who welcomed us and explained everything we needed to know about the apartments and the area, she was so friendly and professional it really was refreshing talking to her. The apartment itself was spacious clean, fresh and well equipped. The maid service was second to none and they turned up every day during our stay to change the bedding, towels and essentials whether needed or not, well done ladies. The pool area was spotless and the snack bar served a wide variety of meals and drinks, thanks Dennis. In the afternoon Magic George takes over the snack bar and his cooking is exceptional (he’s asked me to say that). No seriously the food is really good from breakfast to dinner and the prices are really good value for the large fresh potions served. Once again I can’t thank the management and all the staff enough for making us feel so relaxed and welcome, a perfect holiday. We will be returning soon and I will be recommending to all our friends and family to visit The Athina Apts.

Second time staying in Athina apartments and was not disappointed. The rooms are basic, but really clean (and cleaned daily) and the family and staff are so friendly and helpful. The apartments are located near the shops/bus routes and a short walk to a beautiful, quiet beach. They have also added a pool this year, which we used a lot! Can't fault Athina Apts and would definitely recommend them as a holiday destination. Top tip - book with them directly rather than using a holiday company as this ensures they get the full amount rather than the percentage the holiday companies offer them!

The welcome we had from the owners everyday was lovely, so friendly and helpful. Perfect bar staff too, Dennis and George would do anything for you, both were very kind and nothing was to much trouble. Food served was amazing, my kids loved their Gyros and especially the chips made out of little potatoes. The apartments are in a perfect location, close to all shops and restaurants. Apartments were cleaned regularly and bins emptied every day, towels and bedding changed regularly . The pool was amazing, lovely and clean. lots of free sunbeds all day. They all worked very hard. Can't wait to return. Thanks Davies and Powell families. X

Great apartments with very friendly and helpful staff, amazing value, good location just a short walk from the beautiful Kalamaki beach and about a 30-40 minute walk from the busy party city of Laganas. The pool bar has fantastic and likeable staff who love to spend time with and talk to the guests, and the food is exceptional and affordable.
The town of Kalamaki itself has a whole strip of bars and restaurants, and multiple supermarkets for anything you need while staying, usually at a very affordable price. The view from the apartment features a large mountain and an expansive skyline for watching the sun set from your balcony.
Shoutout to George the barman who made our stay even better every day and night. 😊

These apartments are in the perfect location, less than a minute from the bars and restaurants and a short stroll to the beach, some rooms (not many) overlook the strip but others (most) overlook the pool and mountain views with sea glimpses which are stunning. We stayed in a room overlooking the pool etc and we were very happy. Our room although very basic was clean, linen and towels changed regularly, more often than we were told on arrival! Our only criticism was a very small shower but it was manageable. Pool area great, lovely pool, no trouble getting a sun bed. Bar and snack bar good if you don’t want to go far during the day, plenty of choice, bar stays open till late so perfect for a nightcap.
Ellie, George and Dennis were exceptional, nothing too much trouble, any issues dealt with straight away. We recommend this as a base and want to say thank you for a lovely stay xx

This is the 3rd time in the last 3 visits to Zakynthos that I have stayed at the Athina Apartments. It's a perfect place to stay, at a very reasonable price, to enjoy all the amenities Kalamaki has to offer and although it is central , there was no disturbance experienced from the noise of traffic or holidaymakers. Everything that Kalamaki has to offer is available within a short walk. Each time that I have stayed here I have found everything perfect for me and now with the addition of the pool and the snack bar, even better. Athina, Ellie, Dennis and the staff are most helpful and considerate. Since I first stayed here, it has always been the place that I try and book for my Kalamaki holiday.

Myself and my husband had the most amazing holiday here. From the moment we arrived we where treated like family. Our room was lovely with very comfortable beds, a/c, safe , tv , kettle, toaster, fridge, hob, cutlery and tableware , everything you needed if you wanted to prepare meals. The room was spotless and cleaned and bedding changed every day (except Sunday ) everyone needs a day off 👍. Shower was powerful and towels provided daily. The pool is lovely and plenty of sunbeds with a poolside bar and snack bar, the food is amazing with plenty of options from breakfast to evening catered for. Staff go above and beyond , nothing too much trouble. Looking forward to returning 😀

We recently stayed at Athina Apartments which is in conveniently situated on the Kalamaki Strip. It was our first time to these apartments and we certainly weren’t disappointed with our choice. We had a first floor good size studio that was basic ( we are in Greece) but spotlessly clean. Decent kettle and toaster fridge and utensils there to prepare a snack. The sheets were changed that many times I lost count and always clean towels every day except Sunday the cleaners were brilliant and worked really hard and always so very friendly. Dennis and George who did all the cooking and tending bar were so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for them …absolutely lovely guys thank you so much to you both for looking after us and making our stay so nice. A thanks to Ellie who is always so pleasant and approachable. This is a very relaxed friendly place to stay a lovely pool and pool bar area serving reasonably priced decent food . The restaurants along the strip were all absolutely lovely we never had one bad meal in any of them in the fortnight we were here and we had some gorgeous cocktails in the cocktail bars. Looking forward to coming back again next year.

Lovely run family apartments. Apartments adequate with kettle toaster fridge 2 ring hob crockery & cutlery. Cleaned daily by the lovely cleaners. Sheets & towels changed twice a week. Free safe. Air con is charged €7 a day & used every day end of June/beginning July. The family are very welcoming. We have been here several times & now feel like it's home from home. The addition of the pool & pool bar last year makes it even better now. Food & drinks excellent & similar prices to other hotels/bars/restaurants in Kalamaki. Would recommend, we have already booked for next. Thank you to Ellie, Athina & Dennis for making our visits so enjoyable.

16/17 Euros from the airport, only 5 minutes away in taxi.
Sunbeds on the beach have gone up in price due to the ruling over Sunbeds on the beach, now between 15 and 20 euro for 2 beds and shade. We just bought a lilo and brolly , lasted us the week, Athina may have some.
All the tavernas do really nice food and our favorite bars were Oasis and Speakeasy.
Your ideally situated for every thing, we’re going back next year.Zante is lovely especially Kalamaki
Athina has a washing line outside each apartment with pegs provided It depends which area your room will be The ones facing the car park get the sun and wind on the back Clothes dry really quickly you can put a line out from the front also Hope this helps I dry all my washing like this no problems
There are more places to choose from in the Kalamaki area.
