Tsilivi, Zante, Greece

The main buffet restaurant keeps things varied with international favourites alongside Italian, Spanish, Chinese and Greek dishes. Expect show-cooking at breakfast and dinner, plus a dedicated kids’ buffet and highchairs to make family mealtimes easy.

Outside, the pool bar serves drinks and snacks during the day, changing over to a laid-back evening bar for cocktails and nightcaps. Smart-casual dress is usually requested indoors (no swimwear in the restaurant). Opening hours, reservations and any supplements can vary by season and board, so always check the latest details on arrival.

What All Inclusive typically includes.

Filoxenia Hotel is built around three freshwater outdoor pools, including a dedicated children’s pool. Wide sun terraces with loungers and parasols give you plenty of space to spread out, and inflatables are generally permitted, making it a hit with younger guests. Pool towels are available free of charge.

When you’re ready for the sea, jump on the hotel’s daily shuttle to Tsilivi Beach. The long stretch of sand shelves gently into clear water, with sections offering watersports and others perfect for laid-back sunbathing and paddling.

While there’s no full spa, the emphasis is on simple holiday pleasures: dip between the pools, take on family and friends at the table tennis table, or relax with a drink while the kids burn off energy in the playground.

Seasonal daytime activities and small team games help keep things sociable, and evenings bring occasional live music, professional shows, quizzes and mini-discos for children.
