Location

Gardelli Resort enjoys a prime spot in Laganas, one of Zante’s most sought-after resorts. Step outside and you’re around 50m from the island’s longest stretch of sand – a 5km bay where the water shelves gently and Loggerhead turtles nest in summer.

Head 500m inland and you’re on the Laganas strip, a mile-long run of bars, clubs and restaurants that rivals some of the Mediterranean’s biggest nightspots. By day, beach clubs, boat trips and water-based activities are all within easy reach, while Zante Town and Keri’s viewpoints are a taxi or excursion away for a change of pace.

Restaurants and Bars

The heart of the All Inclusive set-up at Gardelli Resort is its contemporary buffet restaurant, conveniently located by the pool. Expect buffet-style breakfast, lunch and dinner with a mix of Greek and international favourites, plus show cooking at dinner so you can watch dishes prepared to order.

Snacks are offered between meals for at least three hours per day, ideal for topping up between beach sessions or before heading out for the night.

The stylish pool bar serves a range of local, international and some premium drinks from morning until late (seasonal hours typically 08:00–01:00), giving you a relaxed base for sundowners before exploring Laganas’ nightlife. A smart-casual dress code may apply in the restaurant, and beachwear is usually not permitted at dinner.

Board inclusions and opening times can vary slightly by season and stay; your travel documents and hotel reception will have the latest details. What All Inclusive typically includes.

Pool Areas and Beach

Days tend to revolve around the resort’s outdoor freshwater pool, framed by loungers and a dedicated sunbathing area. The vibe is relaxed and sociable, with drinks just steps away at the pool bar. Towels are available with a refundable deposit, so you can travel lighter.

From the pool it’s only around 50m to the beach, where Laganas’ famous long bay awaits. The gently shelving sand is great for easy dips and post-night-out cool-offs, and the area is renowned as a nesting ground for Loggerhead turtles in July and August (look out for marked protected areas).

Spa, Sports and Other Facilities

Gardelli Resort keeps things simple but practical. You’ll find a compact gym with cardio equipment and a free weights area (usually open mid-May to mid-October, dependent on occupancy; minimum age 18).

Around the hotel, facilities include:
• 24-hour style reception with concierge-style assistance and luggage storage
• Free Wi-Fi throughout the property
• Highchairs in the restaurant for younger guests

Entertainment is mainly centred on Laganas itself – you’re close enough to enjoy the clubs and bars, but can retreat to the pool for a quieter day after a late night.
