Location:

Villa Sarakina enjoys such an excellent location. It is a real plus point for the villa. You cannot beat having fabulous views and being amidst centuries-old olive groves and vineyards. Laganas has several mini-markets and plenty of entertainment on offer. There is a good choice of restaurants. It is so lovely to take a delicious meal while overlooking the sea. The main street of Laganas runs along the whole beachfront and continues to the neighbouring resort of Kalamaki to the east.

The beach is delightful with fine, silvery sand and sun loungers and parasols available as well as pedalos and boat trips to catch a glimpse of the protected Caretta turtles swimming around the bay. There are no other watersports allowed on the beach due to the turtles nesting. The sea and coast around Zakynthos is part of the National Marine Park. The rare Caretta turtles lay their eggs in the sands of Gerakas, Dafni, Kalamaki, Marathonisi and especially Sakania, east of Laganas.

The villa is only 8km from the island’s buzzy capital, Zante Town.  Most of the houses, shops and buildings are built in traditional Venetian style. They were rebuilt after the destructive earthquake of 1953. Solomos Square is bustling and lined with restaurants and bars and also the Byzantine Museum and Cultural Center.

Zante Town is known for its amazing nightlife. You can enjoy a game of tennis at the Zakynthos Tennis Association. Bochali is 2km from the centre of Zante Town. You will find yourself stopping every few minutes to take panoramic photographs of the pretty harbour, Argassi and the Bay of Laganas. The narrow, charming alleys are lined with old houses and traditional cafes and restaurants. You should try ‘frigania’, a delicious local dessert. A little further up, you will arrive at the castle. Solomos Wines distillery is a great outing where wines can be tasted and bought cheaply.The cellars are beautiful and the wines delicious. There is also olive oil to taste.
