"Traumhafter Aufenthalt: Sehr schöne und gut ausgestattete Wohnung mit hochwertigen Möbeln. Ruhige Lage auf einem Anwesen mit Blick aufs Meer.
Der Gastgeber ist sehr herzlich: Die Kinder durften jeden Tag die Hühner füttern und er hat uns viel zur Geschichte des Hauses, zur ökologischen Landwirtschaft sowie Griechenland im Allgemeinen berichtet.
Die Unterkunft war die beste unserer Griechenland-Rundreise. Wir würden gerne irgendwann nochmals vorbeikommen. Sehr zu empfehlen!"

"Tucked slightly away from the busier heart of the Grecotel Riviera Olympia complex, Ilia Palms offered a quieter base while still giving guests access to the extensive facilities and beautiful beachfront of the wider resort. From arrival, it felt different to many modern, high‑gloss properties: instead of a sleek, ultra‑contemporary lobby, you walked into a hotel with a distinctly retro, 70s‑style soul. The architecture, original furnishings and simple layout created a nostalgic, almost time‑capsule quality that many guests found charming, especially those who appreciate a sense of history.
The focus here was never on cutting‑edge design or ultra‑luxury finishes, but on generous spaces, a calming atmosphere and the benefit of being integrated into a much larger complex while keeping a more tranquil, self‑contained identity. A highlight was the quiet pool area, which felt sheltered from the livelier parts of the resort, with ample space for swimming and relaxing without the crowds.
However, it is important to acknowledge that Ilia Palms was ready for renovation. Over time, furnishings naturally showed wear and tear, and bathrooms in particular felt dated compared to more recently refurbished hotels. For guests willing to embrace its nostalgic character and accept that some elements were tired, Ilia Palms provided a peaceful, good‑value way to enjoy the full Riviera Olympia experience. For those seeking very modern interiors, one of the newer sister properties would be better"
"The hotel is the best in the area, very close to a beautiful beech, and 10 mins walk from the town.
However, be warned that you will be charged for simple things like water, the local tax I was unaware of is 15 euros a day, and whilst I'm unaware this is the case at our hotel other's in the area even charge for air conditioning, so check when you book.
If you go half board the evening meal is a set menu and the portion sizes are small.
Finally I wouldn't recommend arranging a trip with the hotel they charge 80 euros for a trip you can get in town for 35.
Having said all if your room includes the breakfast it was amazing (as much as you can eat). The staff are very helpful, the facilities outstanding.
In conclusion whilst I felt we were being milked for every euro, I would recommend this hotel, and we had an amazing time."
"Grecotel oasis is a good all inclusive resort. The service and food are excellent and the rooms are a good size. The property just feels a bit dated and could do with an upgrade for the price. The water park is amazing and the pools in the resort are really good. You never feel overcrowded and we had a superb time. Thank you"
"Beautiful beach to watch sunrise and pastel sunsets, surrounded by green hills. In the evening it’s great for quiet walks.
Loungers are good quality and there are options to sit in the sand. At the end of the beach with found a little cove where the kids enjoyed snorkelling.
We ate lunch at the beach bar along the beach and it was nice. It closes at 7pm so the evening feels like you have the beach to yourself.
The staff are very friendly and all work very hard.
The breakfast and evening meals are very good and have options for all diets. Pastries, bacon, yoghurt, fruits, jams, salad. My partner is lactose intolerant and found it easy to eat.
Take cash as there is no cash machine nearby and it’s nice to be able to tip staff.
The family room was large and had a beautiful view, with working air con! The bathroom has the essentials. Daily maid service is great.
Its a very good value hotel that feels hidden away from the busy places of Zakynthos, but also super easy to get a taxi to Argassi or elsewhere, the staff will help with this and anything you need.
I loved taking a break early evening in the beach bar, where drinks were reasonably priced.
For me the staff can make or break your experience and here the staff were the highlight"
"Great hotel, I definitely recommend it. Clean rooms, very clean, helpful staff, great food. I recommend the stake, the burger and the pancake apple pie. Very peaceful and relaxing atmosphere."
