Hotel Castelli in Aghios Sostis, Zante, Greek Islands

Hotel Castelli details

The Hotel Castelli teams a great location with a friendly, laid-back vibe. You can expect a warm Greek welcome from the Lougaris family, too.

The family-run Hotel Castelli has clinched a top setting. The property is less than a ten-minute walk from Aghios Sostis Beach, and there are shops, restaurants and bars even closer. Plus, if you want to explore the surrounding areas, lively Laganas is only about a 15-minute walk away, and Zante Town is less than 20 minutes on the bus.

At the hotel, most people spend their time relaxing by the swimming pool. It’s set in a roomy terrace that’s freckled with sunbeds and umbrellas, and it’s got a bubbling whirlpool bath tucked in at one end. There’s a bar out here, as well, serving up cocktails and meze-style snacks.

Speaking of food, you get a real taste of Greek home cooking here. In the mornings, expect a continental buffet spread accompanied by homemade cakes baked with fresh ingredients from the hotel's own farm. There are weekly barbecues down by the pool, too.
