A member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World and winner of many awards and accolades, the exclusive Porto Zante is a favourite of many celebrities and dignitaries, who relish the resort’s world-class service, accommodation and privacy. Located on Zakynthos, known for its warm turquoise waters and Venetian villages, the resort boasts a private sandy beach within a secluded bay.
Guests stay in Pool Villas, cleverly positioned to offer the utmost privacy, along with fabulous views, while a team of dedicated butlers are on hand to ensure a VIP service is always available. Expect stylish interiors with climate control, entertainment centres, work desk with iMac computer, relaxing living rooms, original artwork, and large bathrooms with Dionysian antique marble, whirlpool tubs, rain showers, Bulgari amenities and luxury robes. Furnished terraces adorn the charming private gardens, all with heated pools. Option extras include whirlpool bathtubs, and a private beach area. Choose from one to four/five-bedroom villas, with the largest villas boasting two heated pools.
The resort is ideal for families with a Kids’ Club run by dedicated staff, offering an outdoor playground, guided excursions to the local water park and mini golf course, as well as fun entertainment sessions. Babysitting is also available. The villas include a range of beach and pool toys, child-friendly bedrooms and there’s a children’s menu available. Specific baby equipment and supplies can be pre-ordered to be ready for your arrival.
Guests can choose to dine in-villa, their garden or private beach area. Alternatively, there are two fabulous restaurants. The Club House serves a superb Greek and Mediterranean menu, while the beachfront Maya offers modern Asian fusion cuisine. For cocktails and a sophisticated vibe, head to the Club House Bar for a drink accompanied by a live pianist and singer. Private chef services are also available on request.
The waterfront spa is a highlight of the resort offering luxury treatments based on ancient Greek therapies, and for added zen, guests can join a yoga, Pilates and meditation class. While many guests simply wish to relax within the luxurious environment of their private pool and beach, there is plenty of opportunity for those more active to burn off some energy. Along with a state-of-the-art Technogym, a variety of water sports are available including stand-up paddleboarding, electric ski jets and canoeing. The resort also has a private yacht which can be booked for the day to sail bespoke itineraries that might include a trip around Zakynthos or an excursion to Turtle Island. For venturing further afield, private chauffeurs and guides are available.
Porto Zante offers a complimentary chauffeur service for those arriving at Zakynthos Airport. The resort is a 20-minute drive away. Alternatively, guests can book a luxury yacht from Athens or various other Greek locations and will be met by a Porto Zante chauffeur at the port of entry.
