Gerakas Belvedere Hotel & Spa sits in Vassilikos, one of Zante’s most scenic corners. This peninsula on the island’s south-east is known for protected beaches, pine-fringed hills and a slower pace than the livelier northern resorts.

From the hotel you’re close to the small resort centre with its tavernas, mini-markets and low-key bars, yet far enough away to enjoy peaceful evenings on your balcony or by the pool. Several sandy beaches, including the famous Gerakas and Dafni stretches, are within easy reach by car, local bus or on foot if you don’t mind a stroll.

• 300m to Vassilikos resort centre
• 1km to the nearest beach
• Easy reach of Gerakas and other protected turtle-nesting beaches

A smart dress code may apply in the evening and restaurant/bar opening times and inclusions can vary by season and board basis. What All Inclusive typically includes.

The heart of the hotel is its freshwater outdoor pool, edged by sunbeds, parasols and well-kept lawns. A dedicated children’s section lets families splash safely together, while a built-in whirlpool adds a touch of spa-style relaxation for adults.

Inflatables are permitted, and complimentary pool towels are provided, so you can travel lighter. The surrounding hillside and garden planting create a calm, almost countryside feel when you’re stretched out by the water.
