Location is a big draw of this all-inclusive, casual hotel, which is situated directly on the beach in the center of Tsilivi town and within easy walking distance of plenty of restaurants and bars. The cleanliness and comfort of the 192 rooms gets high marks from past guests. Perks here include an indoor pool, an outdoor hot tub, and a small fitness center. There are fewer families here than at other area properties, and kid-friendly facilities are limited to a children's pool. The pool area is small and can get somewhat crowded; the nearby Zante Star is notably less busy, but it's not on the beach and is removed from town.

Scene
Casual atmosphere popular with adult travelers
The heart of the hotel is the slightly cluttered pool area, which unites a medium-sized pool, an adjacent children’s pool, and a hot tub with a couple of fountains and a crowd of lounge chairs. It's flanked by long, three-story stucco structures that house guest rooms and has direct beach access. The overall atmosphere at the property is casual and the crowd tends to be older adults, a large percentage of whom hail from English-speaking countries.
Location
Right on the beach, walking distance from town
The Zante Maris sits on a small pedestrian-friendly street in the center of town,within a few minutes' walk to restaurants, shops, and bars. It's about a 20-minute drive from the Zakynthos Airport. There is no public transportation, but the town's taxi stand is right by the hotel.
Rooms
Dated rooms with laquered wood furniture and striped bedspreads as well as bathrobes and slippers
Rooms are plain and generic, with 1980s-style taupe velour couches, lacquered wooden furniture, and striped earth-toned bedspreads on reportedly comfortable beds. Past guests have noted that rooms on the pool level may receive excessive noise. Balconies have stucco walls, which provide privacy from neighbors, and bathrooms have shower/tub combos. Each room has a hairdryer, a small flat-screen TV, and a mini-fridge, as well as bathrobes and slippers.
