Paradise Hotel & Bar

A must-visit bar in the heart of Tsivili. The staff are so welcoming and go out of their way to help. Big shout out to Julian, Martin, Nick, lovely Anastasia, and of course the owner Yannis. You won't be disappointed.

We stayed at Paradise Hotel Boutique last week, 9th - 16th August 2024, and it really did feel like paradise. Gary and his partner welcomed us personally, and right away we felt we'd found the perfect place for our first visit to Zante and to any Greek island. Breakfast was served outside in the Boutique bar area, which was gorgeous. As people from Yorkshire, eating outdoors felt like a treat. The room was clean and just right for what we needed, with a hairdryer, mini fridge, double bed, towels and an open wardrobe with coat hangers. The grounds were beautiful and well kept, with bright pink flowers around the hotel. The pool and sunbathing area were clean, with plenty of sunbeds at any time of day. We also loved the food, drinks and cocktails from the Boutique Bar. Being right by the sea was idyllic, and we got up early each morning to watch the sunrise over mainland Greece. It's also a short walk to the main road, with its restaurants, bars and shops, and we found plenty of welcoming places to eat. Our friends booked Elia's for our 13th wedding anniversary, and the staff made it special with a card, banner, hearts and a scrumptious cake. We also ate at M-eating, Yum Yums and Ana's Kitchen, as well as Boomerang, close to the hotel, where the candle lamps and seaside setting made for a romantic evening. We enjoyed Our Place and Paradise Cocktail Bar too, and loved the two gorgeous Westie dogs who came around for a stroke. We're smitten with Tsilivi, Zante, and will definitely return to Paradise Hotel. Five stars plus!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is near all the bars and restaurants, and the beach is a 10-minute walk. The staff were friendly and helpful, breakfast had plenty of choice, and the bar was great. Lovely pool, and the rooms were cleaned daily with fresh towels. The air conditioning worked really well. Couldn't ask for more.

The family running the place couldn't have been more helpful. We stayed at the end of the season, so I can imagine it gets much livelier mid-season. We ate self-catering, though the breakfasts looked great, and I agree with the tip to try The Family restaurant just up the road. We had one of the newer rooms behind the bar rather than above it. It had recently been done out to a high standard and was well equipped, apart from no toaster, which may matter if you like toast. Ask the owners if you need anything. Rooms were cleaned every day, with towels and bedding changed. The pool area was great.
