We arrived around 10:30 in the morning, and it was still very quiet so we could get a cot on the beach. You then have to spend (we were 2 so x2) 50 euros pp on food and drinks and then you do not pay for cots. You may stay down until 17:00. We were served super well from the first moment, each time the water was poured, and we also saw that in people who smoked the ashtray was renewed every time. Waitstaff kept coming by to ask if you're okay or if you need anything else. At the entrance is a shower where you can rinse your very chill if you have been in the sea. We ate sushi and drank cocktails and we really loved it! Very good service and we had a wonderful day. Especially nice brown:))))

I came to this restaurant with my friend to have an aperitif before going to dinner but unfortunately we did not undergo a treatment as we would have expected. Initially we were greeted quite kindly by a guy who brought us to our table. Later we were greeted by another girl who brought us the menus of cocktails, wine, soft drinks and even sushi dinner, later we specified that we were in that place only to have an aperitif and not to have dinner and at that time the girl seemed a little angry by the situation and later came the boy who welcomed us previously specifying that those tables were specially for people who were having dinner. We didn't really appreciate this treatment because anyway we were going to have a drink and eat something and nobody specified that if we didn't have dinner we couldn't sit down. Anyway the location of this place was very suggestive and beautiful and the food we ate (or two sushi rolls) was very good. The bottle of wine we took was also very good. Overall it is a nice place to go the only thing is that I hope in general that the staff will cater to people who also want to have aperitifs in a kinder way. We did not feel welcome and this I think in a place like this should not happen. However other members of staff have behaved kindly towards us so this review is not aimed at everyone.

I cannot recommend this place enough. We were slightly skeptic after reading reviews but I’m so glad we went and checked it out. For 6 cocktails, 5 starters, 4 mains, 2 sides & a dessert, the final bill was so reasonable. The price we paid doesn’t even come close to the quality of food we received, the taste and flavours were unmatched! It was all cooked to absolute perfection. We were not hungry for desert, but desperate to try the tiramisu, and we are so glad we did. Never tasted anything like it. And for Sila, wow!! We have never ever received service like it. She was so attentive, caring, kind, friendly and helpful. We took consideration in the recommendations she gave us and were so pleased we did. She absolutely made our evening, thank you so much Sila & Hamsa!!! We have already pre booked a table for Wednesday before we leave. Amazing. 10/10

Very good food. On the other hand deplorable service!! Despite the reservation, 1 hour waiting standing AND at the bar. Secondly, error on the part of the waiters on a dish that I could not eat being allergic, I ask for a change of the dish and there I am told that I still have to pay for it in addition to the one I will take when I did not eat it! In short inadmissible it for such an expensive restaurant, I then ask to see the person in charge and I am told that he is supposedly not there! I strongly recommend this restaurant!

After waiting for an hour with a reservation they brought us just water and wrong food and they tried to convince us that it was ours. We are still waiting for our food, it would be more possible to see God instead of our food. I don’t recommend this place to anyone ( it’s 20€ for 8 pieces of sushi). Staff is rude too. Just TERRIBLE. This is my plate as you can see from the photo

First visit went to the beach club was lovely however when going on the evening staff were miserable and as said by many others there is no point in booking a reservation for dinner as you will still have to wait to be seated and food is average. They pick and choose the prices of the sunbed per day considering the first time we went beds were 10 euro, two days later changed to 50 euro per person. When spoke to manager he was very condescending and asked for proof?

Disappointing Experience at Hamsa, Zakynthos We had a reservation at Hamsa for 9:30 PM but were left waiting for an hour before finally getting our table. Although we requested separate bills when making the reservation, this was not taken into account initially. After a long wait and some back and forth, the bills were eventually split, but it was a hassle. We were also disappointed to find that we couldn’t order sushi as our main course. To make matters worse, our appetizers and main courses were served at the same time, which really detracted from the dining experience. Lastly, while we did order bread, we were shocked to discover we were charged €28 for it, which was far more than we expected. Overall, the evening was marred by these issues, and I can’t say I’d recommend this restaurant.

Despite having a reservation, we had to wait 45 minutes. On top of that, we were supposed to eat sushi and were told at the table that there was no sushi today. They would have told you something like that when you got there and not after waiting 45 minutes. The table behind us then got the sushi menu 4-5 minutes later and ordered sushi. After we complained, we were not even offered a coffee on the house as compensation and the excuse was "we can't take sushi from everyone because our sushi chef is overworked" which is a complete disgrace.

Well furnished place, very scenic with the swimming pool inside, sea view, but the sea and the beach are really ugly in that part of Laganas. Cocktails costing from 15 to 20€ each... it doesn't matter if they are expensive, since it is quite common in Zakynthos, but from a place like this one expects them to at least be good and at least nice, we were brought two out of two cocktails simple glasses without a minimum of decoration, nothing exciting taste, took two bao as accompaniment, good but overpriced for those too. We pointed out that the cocktail glass was also broken on the edge.. Moral of the story, two cocktails and an "aperitif" dish €47 and they even asked us if we wanted to leave a tip.. now we are quite convinced that at least in our area, yes they would be excused with a discount and not asking for a tip! Classic place in Zakynthos for an unaware and mainly British clientele!

We often saw this restaurant on the internet and therefore made a reservation. Upon entering everything immediately seemed very rushed. We were also immediately told that we had to leave after an hour and a half. We hadn't even looked through the menu when the grumpiest waiter I had ever seen came to the table to take an order. Of course, within two minutes we had not made a choice and Mr. left stamping his feet. After we had made a choice, the starter was on the table within five minutes. As I took my last bite of this, a waiter was already at the table taking away the plates. At the same time there was a waiter behind with the main courses. While eating the main course, after every sip of water you took, a waiter came to refill your glass. Ultimately I indicated that I could fill my glass with water while eating. I found this very disturbing. It was also indicated that they only had one size of beer glass. First glass I got was 0.4 second glass 0.5. Paid twice for 0.5. Ultimately, with what we got for the money we paid, this was a major disappointment.

It 'a really nice place, elegant sea view with a great welcome service and at the table. Price definitely above the average of the place but also the quality. We had a salad, and I had a chicken breast but done very well, a couple of beers each and two baskets of bread with focaccia. The single plates did not give the idea of costing much but the bill was over 80 euros. Probably the bread has affected a lot, Anyway we had a nice evening and with more knowledge of the menu and language we probably would have lived an even better experience.

After careful research I decided to come and eat with Hamsa for a worthy treatment that here in Greece I never received. the only negative note was at the time of the bill as not being a low price we wanted to share it, this was not granted even with much insistence. After 5 minutes of discussion our trivial request was not heard.

Hàmsa is a beautiful restaurant by the sea, which is of course a beautiful location. The staff try very hard to give you a nice evening but are, in my opinion, a bit too intrusive. They come (too) often to ask if everything is satisfactory, take the order (too) quickly and we felt like we had to leave quickly when we ran out of food. The food was delicious though! We had bread beforehand, 2 sushi rolls and a pasta with chicken.

Saw this restaurant often and wanted to go there. Restaurant was beautiful and nice for photos. When we entered, the first thing we were told was that we had to leave after 1.5 minutes. This was not indicated anywhere and was not mentioned when booking. After we had the menu for 5 minutes, the next waiter also told us that we only had 1.5 hours. Everything was also served and cleared very hurriedly. Food was fine but for the price we expected more. Once again beautiful decor but really overrated.

We were 4 couples and we took the dinner here. The menu was rather poor . At the beginning, after ordering the drinks , they asked us if we want some bread. We accepted and they brought us bread and some olive 🫒 pasta. They charged us € 32 for this bread without telling us this is chargeable. When we have asked to speak with a manager they told us that he wasn't there and they were not pleasant Bad experience . Please do not go there.
