Not quite there, good points, but wouldn’t return
This could be such a great hotel, if it wasn’t for some minor issues. The food! Breakfast and lunches were perfect, evening meals- well nothing goes together, the quality and limited options were bad. Spoke to Panos the restaurant manager, who was helpful, but put it down to the lack of staff, it’s the quality and choices that let it down. We and many others ate a large amount of the time at local tavernas. There was nowhere to sit and relax after food, other than the restaurant, which isn’t big enough for the 80 rooms. It’s such a shame as they have a beautiful foyer, large upper terrace and a beautiful garden area (all not set up for use). There needs to be another bar area separate from the dining one. The pool area is lovely, though only approx 60-70 beds, for potentially 160 guests, as we have just returned from a quieter time it wasn’t too bad, but could imagine in the height of summer you would never get a bed. Rooms were very clean, though bathrooms a bit shabby, believe these are getting an upgrade (no working hairdryer for 5 days was a let down), after asking daily. The management really need to review these comments, I wouldn’t go back, though Zante was lovely. Top tip, if you want a great beach experience go to Banana Beach (5*)

Stay again - yes please
Fantastic location. On arrival we were helped to take our suitcases to our room and the same on departure. As the arrival was later the hotel had left food in our room for us, we noticed other late arrivals had the same. Our air conditioned room was light, bright, airy and clean. Cleaned every day to a high standard. Beds were very comfortable. Bathroom clean. Towels clean and changed. Plenty of wardrobe space. Water, tea and coffee in room and a fridge which was very quiet. Balcony had a lovely view. The air conditioned restaurant was lovely too. You could sit inside or outside or on the roof terrace. The buffet for all meals was varied and the food was very good. The manager introduced himself at our first meal which was breakfast and said to fill our water bottles up from the machine there including our room bottle. The evening meals were also very good, with a good bar with a good supply of alcohol and soft drinks. Alcoholic drinks at the bar restairant and pool bar were of a good quality. The greek dancers were able to encourage a lot of people to join in their dancing. Dancing was once a week as we were off main season. All the staff were very pleasant with smiles and greetings. The pool area sunbeds are of very good quality with parasols. The pool itself was very good, with a children's pool and hot tub style area. We had a fantastic couples massage too. We hired a car and discovered quite a few beaches some lively and some not. The area is stunning. A holiday thoroughly enjoyed.

Definitely not 4 star nor the “luxury suites” they advertise
Definitely not 4 star nor the “luxury suites” that they advertise. We stayed as a couple for 10 days and this hotel is 2-3 star at best. We arrived and the hotel had no record of our booking and when investigated said it was a system error and that we were booked to stay the following month! They found us emergency accommodation in a grotty villa with no drinking water for a night until a room became available for us. We stayed in a Harmony suite where the terrace was over run with ants, the bathroom floor was disgusting as there was a drain in the middle of the floor where bath water came back out (along with dirt and other people’s hair), we were left with no towels one day and the grouting in the bathroom was mouldy. The food was of poor quality, never hot and always repetitive. We ended up eating out several times just to get a decent meal. The pool area was over run with ants, the plastic glass they serve drinks in are dirty and the drinks are watered down. The pool towels were discoloured and I’m not convinced they were washed but just tumble dried. The sun loungers were dirty and several umbrellas were broken. The grounds at the back of the hotel were in very bad condition and looked very scruffy. The positives - the staff were in the most friendly (just not very helpful if you had an issue). The location is very quiet which suited us, within walking distance of beaches and tavernas and supermarkets. There are far too many negatives for this hotel for me to even consider coming back to this hotel and is definitely not 4 star nor worth the money
⭐⭐⭐⭐ A truly wonderful stay at the Gerakas Belvedere ❤️
We’ve had such a lovely stay here and honestly, we really didn’t want to leave!
The location is absolutely stunning. It’s in a quieter, beautiful part of Zante, which makes it perfect for relaxing, but there are still two lovely beaches within walking distance, along with some great tavernas, cocktail bars and little places to explore.
The hotel itself is beautiful, spotlessly clean and so well cared for. All the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, and there’s such a lovely, warm and intimate atmosphere throughout the hotel.
We did have a small issue with our room when we first arrived, which meant spending a couple of nights at another hotel. But honestly, it didn’t take away from our experience at all. Once we returned, we settled in and absolutely loved our stay.
Our room was gorgeous, and we were so lucky to have a beautiful sea view, even though we hadn’t booked one! ❤️ The food was good, the pool area was always clean and tidy, and everything just felt so relaxed and welcoming.
We’ve had the most wonderful, relaxing holiday and have made some lovely memories here. We would happily come back and would definitely recommend the Gerakas Belvedere to anyone looking for somewhere peaceful, beautiful and friendly to stay in Zante.
A huge thank you to all the staff for making our stay so special. We’ll be very sad to leave. ❤️🇬🇷
We loved it! Feel we found a summer holiday Gem!
We spent the last week of August here as a family of 4. My 2 boys (aged 4 and 6) absolutely loved it here and we couldn’t get them out the pool so ideal of younger kids who don’t need a larger pool/slides etc. We found the food very fresh and they were always changing the dishes to get rid of any that had been sat there a while with some newer food. We did eat out in 2 of the restaurants nearby on 2 nights just for a change of scenery and as all inclusive can become a bit same samey but we find that everywhere we go unless they have different restaurants onsite. The italian up the road was delicious and we went to the cafe/restaurant opposite another night and they were lovely and so accommodating. The italian restaurant gets booked up fast so might be worth booking (but we did go on a Saturday so maybe that’s why).
All inclusive drinks weren’t amazing but were fine for us who aren’t big drinkers anyway. Marked down one point because the pool bar have ice creams and lollies available to pay for so it got expensive as the children can see them and want them and I do feel many some ice cream options should be free on all inclusive personally as that is a big factor to why we pick all inclusive with small children but as the rest of the holiday was so so lovely we didn’t mind too much!! Also sunbeds can be hard to get sometimes but this didn’t bother us too much as on days we didn’t get beds we went to the beach and there were some available when we came back.
Beaches are stunning! Sea water and sand so clear and warm. Pool water also lovely and warm but refreshing enough! Our room was so so clean and tidy, cleaners do an amazing job. All in all we were very happy with our stay and feel we got ourself a lucky gem here! PS. Greek night on Friday was lots of fun! Turtle Sanctuary is worth a visit on the way to the beach and the food drinks there are lovely and all money goes to the sanctuary.
