Thank you Frenchie. Yeah this was a lovely apartment complex, pretty much brand new when we went. That was only 2 years ago so it'll still be pristine. Lovely family that own the place too, highly recommend it.
@@continentalcoxons Tesoro Hotel, claims 4 star, not even 2 more like, Tsilivi village, lovely area, hotel was pants, the only entertainment was them borrowing my iPad to play music as they couldnt do it, no water for 2 days, no power for 3 days, no clean towels, nobody ate in, everyone went out despite being AI, poor at best!
Yes that doesn't sound like a good experience. Don't let it put you off Zante though as there's some lovely.places to say and the island itself is lovely.
Hello We've just been watching your videos on here on kalamaki and we have booked to go in August as a result , thanks for the info much appreciated Pete & Val
Thank you, its good to know that they're providing people with useful stuff, that's what we aimed for. Still got a few more to edit for this series of videos too.
As Zakynthos regular great video guys, I loved your journey, and that's a lovely place you stayed in. I'm back on the island next month and as usual will be vlogging my journey, odyssey and adventure 🇬🇷
Hi Ken, thanks for taking the time to watch our video. We do love Zakynthos and even got married there. We made about 10 videos during our time there. We will check yours out when we get home from our trip.
Thank you BW. The nightlife is actually decent, all depends what you're looking for. It's very scaled down from the likes of Laganas but still lively enough.
I did actually start putting together playlists on Spotify with the music I've used in each series of videos we've done. Still working on that at the moment as the videos are taking all my time up.
Thanks guys, really appreciate the comments. I suppose it depends what you like from a holiday. Both completely different with Laganas being the rowdy party resort. Kalamaki much more laid back.
Great Video Jamie & Jaquie! I've been looking forward to your Zante '22 series since we got back last wednesday so I could re-live our own Holiday. Are you producing 1 video a Day for this or merging a couple days at a time? Something to look forward to after work, so more videos the better!
Thank you Percy, glad you enjoyed it. Looking at hopefully 1 a week, fitting it in around work and other things. This one took me all day yesterday to do.
The weather was spot on when we were there. First few nights were quite chilly, but warmed up towards the end of our holiday. It was hot through the day though, can't complain about the weather during our stay.
@@stevedawson207 no worries and thank you. We try to reply to all the comments we get, nice to communicate with the people who take the time to watch the videos. You'll love it there, such a nice place to stay and the family thatvown it are so nice. If you watch episode 10 we show you round a bit more of the apartments and give a bit of a review.
Looks like you guys had so much fun! Weren't those Ethernet ports and not USB ports btw? Haha, I was looking at a small screen so I might have been mistaken. Either way, looks like an awesome beginning of the trip :D
They were, I put a correction note on the video as I was filming at the time and Jacqui had said USB ports. There were USB ports on the bedside sockets. The apartments were fantastic and in such a great location.
@@continentalcoxons Oh right - good addition! Really happy that you had a good place to crash over there :) I tend to pick more toward the 2-star range these days...
@@continentalcoxons Really?! That's insane. It looked much better than that - but then again, maybe the star rating in this case was just because they lacked certain services.
Yeah that's what I think. The reason I came to the 2 star conclusion is because we only got charged 5 euro hotel tax at the end,which works out at 50 cents a day over 10 nights. That's the going rate for that star rating. Becomes more expensive once you hit 3 and 4 star.
@@continentalcoxons I'm going to zante next May for 10 days. Is it hot enough to get a decent tan and will most of the shops, excursions etc be open for tourists? I live in Devon and nothing happens here till June.
@@devonshire5482 we've had different experiences in May, one year was really bad weather wise and this year was fantastic and we got a great tan. The one previous was freak weather though. Be plenty open in Zante though.

excellent footage as usual, we went Zante last year, it was truly awful, Island was lovely, hotel was pants!
Oh really? Where did you stay?

@@continentalcoxons no better place to get married, enjoy the rest of your trip 🌞✈️
@alykesken thank you Ken. We sure will. Its been an amazing trip.
Great video guys what the night life like never been to kalamaki
Thank you BW. The nightlife is actually decent, all depends what you're looking for. It's very scaled down from the likes of Laganas but still lively enough.
@@continentalcoxons ok brill i'll look at booking sometime been going to majorca for the past 5 years fancy a change
Yeah it's nice to have a change. We are currently in Gran Canaria, been great.
@@continentalcoxons great have a nice time
@@billybilly633 thank you
LOVE THE MUSIC ON YOUR VIDEOS WOULD BE GREAT TO PUT A LITTLE NOTE SO EVERYONE KNOWS WHO SINGS WHAT SONG
I did actually start putting together playlists on Spotify with the music I've used in each series of videos we've done. Still working on that at the moment as the videos are taking all my time up.
Have a nice journey )
Thank you, we had a lovely time
Great vlogs guys, also watched your Skiathos series 👏
Would you recommend Kalamaki or Laganas?
Thanks guys, really appreciate the comments. I suppose it depends what you like from a holiday. Both completely different with Laganas being the rowdy party resort. Kalamaki much more laid back.
Just seen this,excellent video. One question though. Why use a pizza slicer to slice up your pizza if you are going to use a knife and fork to eat it?
Ha ha, felt obliged to use it with it being on the plate 😁
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it, more to come from.Zante very soon.
Great Video Jamie & Jaquie! I've been looking forward to your Zante '22 series since we got back last wednesday so I could re-live our own Holiday. Are you producing 1 video a Day for this or merging a couple days at a time? Something to look forward to after work, so more videos the better!

What was weather like that week in May, as I'm taking partner same time this year
The weather was spot on when we were there. First few nights were quite chilly, but warmed up towards the end of our holiday. It was hot through the day though, can't complain about the weather during our stay.
Standard fee for taxi from airport is 13€ not 15,
We got charged 15
You wasn’t in Dominican Republic in 2004 was you? You both look familiar
No we've never been to the Dominican before. Would like to go but not yet ventured that way yet. We didn't meet until 2009 either 😁
Thank you for replying. Great video by the way. Staying at zante hotel in a few weeks ourselves 👍

@@ThreeStarVagabond I think this was actually classed as a 2 star believe it or not. Gob smacked to find something so nice and cheap in Greece.
@@continentalcoxons Really?! That's insane. It looked much better than that - but then again, maybe the star rating in this case was just because they lacked certain services.

Facemasks? Covid is over so why are people wearing masks?
They were still compulsory at the time we filmed this

Jacqui’s face wasn’t impressed with the strangers feet stretched out and nearly touching her ankles. 🫣
Definitely not, I don't think I would either 🤣🤣
