Best Luxury Family Friendly Hotel in Zante: Emerald Villas

• Incredible views
• Calm location
• Perfect for sunrises

Opposite to travelers on a tight budget, some families want to spend the most comfortable and memorable stay in Zakynthos, and I can completely understand that. For you who want to make sure your family will enjoy their trip, let me talk about the Emerald Villas, a fantastic hotel.

There are tons of reasons for me to love this accommodation, but the best of them is for sure the outstanding views: from your very own, private swimming pool, you will be able to witness the magnificent sunsets (or sunrises for the early birds!) of Greece, waking up in a paradisiac scenery each day, and watching nature’s best.

Thank to its peacefulness and helpful staff, the Emerald Villas is a great choice if you want to have a quiet stay. Also, everything inside is fully-equipped, modern, and perfectly clean, and I know you will love staying there.

Best Budget Zante Family Hotel: Dakis Studios

• Best value for money
• Great location
• Pretty spacious

If what you are looking for is an affordable accommodation for your family on the busy island of Zante, you are in for a wild ride. There are tons of budget-friendly hotels there, but not all of them will fit your needs. In fact, most of the time, you will need to sacrifice something in exchange for your money, but it is often a huge problem such as a poor location or very small rooms.

Well, in Dakis Studios, there is none of that. This hotel is one of the cheapest in Zante and also one of the best. Because it is situated up in the hills, it offers amazing views of the rest of the valley and the sea, which everyone will love, and which is also pretty rare for a budget hotel.

Besides, the location is perfect, only a couple minutes away from the beachfront and the harbor. Also, don’t worry, the accommodation is very spacious for such a price, and you and your family won’t have to worry about comfort.

More Great Family Hotels in Zante

While the hotels listed above are truly the very best hotels Zante has to offer for each of the specific categories listed, they’re far from being the only great options.

Venus Resort

What I love most about it is its on-site restaurant. There, you can eat 3 times a day and enjoy tasty dishes made with fresh and local products; also, there is a wide range of options for you to choose from.

Plus, the staff at Lesante Classic is particularly caring and helpful. Not only will they help you with any possible question, but they are also very reactive and particularly serious. All in all, you will spend a comfortable stay with your family in Lesante Classic, so just book it while you can!

Poseidon Beach Hotel

• Great location
• Activities for kids
• Free sunbeds and umbrellas

As its name suggests, the Poseidon Beach Hotel is located only a couple of meters away from the beach, but there’s even better: it is also only 50 m / 1,640 ft away from the center of Laganas Town, the neighboring bustling village. Also, it has its own, beautiful outdoor swimming pool area, where you will find sunbeds and umbrellas (both free, except those on the private portion of the beach), as well as a smaller pool for kids, making it a perfect choice for families.

Also, kids (and adults!) will love the playground, the billiards, and the tables for table tennis.

Finally, I believe that the Poseidon Beach Hotel is suited for everyone, as it offers plenty of activities, and is situated right next to taverns, a mini market, shops, and bars, so no wonder rate it a solid 9.5 out of 10 for a stay with kids!

Village Inn Studios & Family Apartments

• Great value for money
• Good location
• Swimming pool

I have to admit that trying to find a decent and affordable resort in a very crowded area such as Zante is one of the hardest things to do when planning a trip, and it is fairly exhausting. Don’t worry though, let me give you a great option in case my other budget pick is already booked: the Village Inn Studios & Family Apartments will do the trick!

This hotel has everything you need for a budget-friendly pick and even more: it has its own outdoor swimming pool with a bar by the poolside as well as its own verdant garden, and each of its rooms has views of either the garden or the pool. Also, it is situated on a fairly busy street where you will find anything you need, from cafés and bars to restaurants.

However, if you just want to explore more unique areas or spend a relaxing stay in Zante, maybe you should head to Zante Town and its renowned harbor, which are only 10 km / 6 mi away from the apartments.

Contessina Hotel

• Spacious rooms
• Modern interior
• Lots of facilities

To be completely honest with you, if you are tired of looking around all over the Internet, or even just this list, to find what hotel suits you best, the Contessina Hotel is one of my personal favorites, so you could for sure go for it right away.

This magnificent 5-star accommodation has everything you could wish for, for you and your family: not only will you be charmed by how spacious, clean, and tidy the interior and the rooms are, but you will also love the splendid swimming pool and the beautiful architecture of the building.

On top of all of that, you will live in a calm resort, although it is situated right next to a lively city, in which you can try plenty of activities. Also, for young adults and parents, I’ve heard the cocktails by the poolside are awesome!

Diana Palace Hotel

• Breakfast + lunch or dinner included
• Good location
• Play areas

Before and after a long beach day in Zante, spent sunbathing on the warm sand and relaxing, I’m sure you won’t want to bother looking for the best restaurant in the vicinity, especially when traveling as a family since you would need to ask everyone if they’re ok with your choice, which already took you long enough to make. If you hate that as much as I do, maybe you should book a room at the Diana Palace Hotel, where the on-site restaurant offers included breakfast and lunch or dinner, a wonderful way to sort things out!

On top of that, this hotel is ideally situated, right next to the beach and about 3 km / 1.9 mi away from Zante Town.

On the whole, there are indoor and outdoor play areas for kids (and adults, don’t worry), which I know all of you will love, so enjoy your stay!

Located in a lively but quiet area, The Senses Tsilivi by Zante Plaza is a solid option for a family. There are tons of activities to do in the vicinity, from restaurants and shops to the beach and the rest of Tsilivi Village, as well as a beautiful, clean, on-site swimming pool if you don’t want to leave the comfort of the accommodation.

Besides, while it can be annoying, difficult, or even impossible to find parking spots in crowded areas such as Tsilivi, The Senses has its own parking lot, which can come in very handy. It is also ideally located, right next to the main action of the village but also close to the rest of the island that you are free to explore.

Hotel Palmyra

• Fully renovated

• Perfect for excursions

If you are one of those families who enjoy trying new experiences and are feeling adventurous, I highly recommend exploring the wilderness of the island of Zante, which is honestly breathtaking. If you’re interested in that, you should book a room at Hotel Palmyra, the perfect pick to base your excursions on. Situated in Argassi, it will offer easy access to bike rides and hikes, as well as Shipwreck Beach, one of the most interesting beaches in the Cyclades, where there is… a shipwreck!

The hotel itself doesn’t have anything to be ashamed of either, as you and your family will have any of your needs fulfilled: the on-site swimming pool and the rooftop bar-restaurant (where you can taste Greek cuisine finest) are awesome, as well as the overall relaxing atmosphere.

This accommodation can be proud of its staff, as it will fulfill your every need very quickly and is polite and helpful. Even better, the food of the resort is very tasty and varied, allowing you to taste a lot of traditional Greek dishes, even during a relatively short stay.

All rooms are located right next to the swimming pool area, which is filled with loungers and umbrellas and is very wide and clean, and the Exotica Hotel & Spa is overall pretty calm and relaxing.

Domes Aulūs Zante

• Perfect staff service
• Very comfortable
• Spaces for kids

Domes Aulūs Zante is for sure one of the best hotels for families on the entire island. Not only does it have a nursery for babies and young kids, but it also boasts playgrounds for older ones, is overall very comfortable, and is also particularly peaceful for adults (and anyone else), which is why it is very much appreciated by families, who rate it 9.3 out of 10.

This resort, interestingly enough, is for slow travelers, which means those who want to relax, take a step back from bustling areas and hyper-connectivity, and enjoy some quiet time. Also, it is more eco-friendly than others, and I’m sure all families would want their trip to have a smaller carbon footprint.
