Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Zakynthos Town?

You'll find a wide selection of shops, restaurants, and cafes along the main promenade, which stretches from Solomos Square down to the port. The square itself is a prominent landmark, surrounded by impressive buildings and home to the Byzantine Museum of Zakynthos.

Couples looking for a romantic and convenient base will find this area ideal. You're perfectly placed for evening strolls along the harbour, enjoying sunset views, and dining at a variety of waterfront restaurants.
