This was our first visit to the Hotel Venus ( although we have stayed in Kalamaki before ) I travelled from Leeds with my Wife and my parents in law. The location is extremely good with the main strip and Kalamaki "Turtle" beach just a 5 min walk away. We stayed for 14 nights with breakfast. The breakfast was this year a buffet affair but to a good standard. We were very impressed from the start as the reception staff and hotel staff in general are very helpful. Spiro, and Harry and Dennis behind the bar were superb and knowledgeable about the whole area, great to chat to over cocktails in the evening. My Wife's favourite cocktail was the "Snicker Licker" Yamas!! We stayed in room 300, this has quite a large balcony, it has views of both the main pool and the adult pool and amazing sea views also! My in laws were so impressed they asked about the possibility of staying a further week which Spiro and the hotel sorted for them without any fuss! The hotel is clean and the pools are clean, the staff are very, very good, couldnt fault the place a brilliant holiday!.…
Excellent hotel with the most friendly staff we have ever came across on hoilday. Hotel clean throughout and the service staff could not have done more to help you. Pool is good and there are more than enough sun loungers to cater for everyone. Hotel is close to all bars and restaurants and the reception staff will happily book a taxi for a sort trip into Zante Town. We'll worth the 12 euro taxi trip
Amazing stuff and beautiful hotel, close to the beach , we stayed for 1 week which was short but we will totally come back next year because we felt in love with the stuff of the hotel which were really friendly and made us feel very good . Food was really delicious and very traditional greek. The stuff from the bar always smile and give you shots which was really funny . Of course everyone is like a family there so you will see them happy all the time , it s giving you the feeling of love and they really like working. Reception it's always helpful for advice if you look where to go on the island and they are also very funny they will do jokes and make you laugh. Room are cleaned always and the ladys from the cleaning were really quiet and nice so if we slept more they would have come later which we really appreciated. During day time we enjoyed the pool along with the many cocktails we had . Overall really felt good and we already booked for next year. Thank you Venus!…
Best hotel in Zakynthos!! Thank you Spiro and all of the stafff for such a lovely stay, great job!!! amazing rooms so soft matresses and so clean!!! big balcony with pool view. Bar & snack bar serving verious drinks and food always with friendly staff.
Οne of the most beautiful and clean hotels that my partner and I have ever visited. very friendly staff, clean rooms, excellent drinks at the bar and many food options at the snack bar, very tasty and at good prices. Τhe pool always had free sunbeds for everyone and was always well-kept and clean. A big thank you to the staff and the owners of the Venus hotel. We will visit you soon, keep up the good work!!
Having stayed at other hotels in Kalamaki in the past i think it only fair to compare, we are not ones to constantly return to the same hotel, its good to spread the custom around and try different hotels. For us the positives - Great location. Brilliant staff. Excellent adult only pool area when available. Breakfast with so much choice and all freshly topped up. Negatives - Room, bed is not king size but 2 singles pushed together with the most uncomfortable gap in-between, minimal water pressure in the bathroom just a trickle most days. The main pool had filthy tiles and glass surround and loads of dirt at the bottom, it was not cleaned once in the 2 weeks we stayed. Windows in the public areas were filthy. The bar food menu was quite limited. Overall, we made the most of it and luckily the adult pool was only unavailable to us 2 days of our stay but stayed down on the beach on those days. If it had been closed for the duration i think we would have checked out. They did seem to concentrate everything on the venue are where the adult pool is situated hence it being so nice and clean but it meant not looking after the main hotel so much.…
Another fantastic holiday at the Venus Hotel. As always nothing is too much trouble for the fantastic staff and Paleothodoros family. Good selection for breakfast. Lovely modern rooms with comfortable beds. Can't wait to return.
Been coming here for 20 years now and still really enjoy it. Everyone is very friendly, the housekeepers do a great job at looking after the room, breakfast time is a welcoming experience with Maria and Sakis does a great job on the bar. Until the next time, efharisto.
My husband and I stayed for 1 week and it was fabulous. All the facilities you require are available. The breakfasts are great with plenty of choice. The rooms are comfortable & cleaned daily. What makes this a great hotel is the staff, they are one big family and for the duration of your holiday you feel part of that exclusive family. Amazingly looked after by Spiro, Dennis, Aris, Anna, Maria & too many more to mention. We look forward to seeing them all next year as we now wouldn’t stay any where else in Kalamaki, Efharisto 😊
This was our first time at the Venus and definitely won't be the last! This is a family run hotel and everyone is super friendly providing the best service we ever had. The manager and all the staff were always there for us for whatever we wished for! Everything was always cleaned, breakfast was amazing with a big variety to choose from, the main pool and the wedding venue pool were always clean with lots of sunbeds , and we shouldn't forget the boys at the bar, great laughs with their amazing cocktails. The Venus burger and the Gyros by the way were absolutely delicious and value for money! Kalamaki beach and the resort is also amazing, beautiful clean beach and lots of restaurants to choose from at night time. We have already booked to come back to the Venus next year already can't wait!…
