A guide to Best Hotels in Kalamaki
The tranquil, white sand resort of Kalamaki on the island of Zante is the perfect place to slow down and relax for your Greece holidays. Popular with families, the area boasts some excellent hotels featuring play areas, kids’ pools and kids’ clubs. It’s not all for the little ones though – you’ll also find a handful of chic, luxury resorts with stunning views and elegant interiors.
Roseland Hotel
Just steps from the beach and minutes from the main strip sits this 3* family-run hotel. Offering a childrens’ play area, large gardens and a separate kids’ pool, this charming hotel is perfect for families with small children, and each room comes with a private sun terrace.
Hotel Exotica
A four-minute walk from the white sand beach, Hotel Exotica is set in idyllic grounds close to the town centre, with a host of shops and tavernas right on your doorstep. Boasting a large swimming pool surrounded by sun beds, the terracotta-topped building blocks are separated by immaculate lawns and shrub-lined pathways. Holidays to Zante don’t get much better than this.
Bitzaro Palace Hotel
The Bitzaro Palace Hotel is bursting with Greek Charm and all rooms are elegantly decorated with views of the gardens and wooden decked pool area.

Kalamaki Beach
The Kalamaki Beach Hotel offers incredible views of the Ionian sea and is set in beautiful landscaped gardens. Between the beach and the hotel sits an impressive outdoor pool surrounded by sun loungers, and directly on the beach you’ll find the hotel’s own seaside taverna.

Caretta Beach Aparthotel
The Caretta Beach Aparthotel is a big hit with families and, with an on-site water park and kids’ club, it’s not hard to see why.
