Windmill Hotel sits in a peaceful spot on the edge of Argassi, wrapped in greenery yet only a short walk from the resort’s main strip. You’re close enough to wander out for cocktails, karaoke or a low-key taverna dinner, but far enough back to keep nights relatively relaxed back at the hotel.

Argassi itself is one of Zante’s most popular bases: a compact resort with a sand-and-shingle shoreline, plenty of casual dining and easy access to Zakynthos Town for harbourfront strolls, shopping and day trips.

• 400m to the sand-and-shingle beach
• 600m to Argassi resort centre (bars, shops, restaurants)
• 4km to Zakynthos Town and harbour
• Local buses and taxis available from the resort
Approx. transfer time from airport: 45 minutes

You’re never far from a drink or a bite to eat at Windmill Hotel. Breakfast is served in the main buffet-style breakfast room, with continental and hot options to start the day. Later on, the poolside snack bar keeps things casual with light meals and refreshing drinks, perfect between swims.

In the evening, you can stay put or wander to Kavo, the hotel’s à la carte restaurant on the beach, for Greek specialities and international favourites with a sea-breeze backdrop. Highchairs are available for younger guests, and a smart-casual dress code may apply in dining venues.

Facilities, opening dates and any reservation or supplement requirements can vary by season and board basis, so check the latest details on arrival. What All Inclusive typically includes.

Days here tend to revolve around the generous outdoor freshwater pool, complete with a separate children’s section so younger swimmers can splash safely. A spacious sun terrace wraps around the water, dotted with sunbeds and parasols, and inflatables are permitted – a plus for families.

When you fancy the sea, Argassi’s sand-and-shingle beach is around 400m away. It’s a narrow but atmospheric strip, backed by bars and cafés where you can grab a drink between dips in the Ionian.

• Currency exchange service (local charges may apply)
