Agoulos Beach Hotel

Great location on the beach.

Power kept turning on and off and the noise in the morning

This is definitely a great location to base yourself to see Zakynthos. It is easily walkable to the Argassi tourist area for dining options and shopping, and is right on the seafront with a pool. The premises is a bit tired and dated but they keep it clean. Things to note is that the wifi is very sporadic and didn’t connect in the rooms. Also in summer you will need mozzie deterrents. There were random power outages for 20-30 seconds at various times. On the whole, we found it good value, and good value if you are on a budget.

After reading recent reviews for this hotel I was very worried about what we had let ourselves in for however we were VERY pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The hotel staff that met us were super friendly and helpful, the room was sooooo much better than we expected ... it was spotless clean with the most amazing sea view. Was it dated...yes, it would definitely benefit from a bit of a cash injection to repair a few of the broken bits and pieces.... the shower in our room leaked if you werent careful, the self catering facilities were patchy i.e only one bowl for the room, mis matched crockery, no saucepans or utensils etc but if you asked at reception they were more than happy to sort anything out for you. The roof top bar was lovely, a bit more pricey than in town but again lovely staff and nice food. The pool was spotless but the garden needed a bit of TLC, the pool bar was fine, we never ate here but other guests said it was average. On the whole it just needs a bit of love and its a shame because it wouldnt take a lot to make it soooo much better. The hotel is a bit out of town but is only about a 10 min slow walk into the main area where there is lots of fab restaurants and bars, the pavement can be a bit rough but there is streetlighting. Overall we had a really fab stay and would definitely visit again.

After reading previous reviews from other guests we were really apprehensive but decided to come anyway and form our own opinion. Thank god we did as its an absolute gem of a place. I dont know if the really poor reviews were by folk that had an agenda against the hotel or if the hotel has since sorted the issues out but all I can say from our own experience is that it's been a cracking stay. Rooms are a bit dated however ours was spotless and the bedding and towels were changed regularly. We had a huge ground floor patio area that was lovely and cool at all times of the day and had great sea views. A very pleasant 10 to 15 minute walk into town and along the way there are many decent restaurants. Would I recommend the hotel, absolutely.

Staff are kind and they do their best. The room is ok but the shower was terrible. A tiny shower tray and a curtain the rod kept coming off the wall when you pulled the curtain to open. The shower head wouldn’t stay on, you had to hold it at all times. We were in the middle floor of 3 floors, facing the sea and the back of the pool bar. One night music was so loud and it continued until very late (beyond 1 am) someone must have complained it wasn’t that bad the following nights. The beach is non existent you can go in and out of the sea though. Via some stairs . We’ve never used the pool it was too small and serving what looks like 2 hotels. When I find out how much of the total package price went to the flights and how much for the hotel I understood how little the hotel got. Which explained everything. If you want a nice enough place to be based at go for it, otherwise you may be a tad disappointed how basic this place actually is. The town of Argasi is more than a mile away and it’s a narrow fast road with no pavement so you do need to drive. Parking was a challenge too. Although the hotel has a small plot (for 3-4 cars) it was usually full which meant we had to look for a parking spot elsewhere.

I have just had a wonderful stay at this hotel,staff are friendly, pool area is lovely and overlooks the sea. We had a room with a sea view which was lovely. The rooms were simple but adequate although the shower cubicles were a little on the small side. This hotel was the perfect base for the island. It was on the outskirts of Argassi so a bit quite but only a 10 minute walk into the town,which we did every night. There are many lovely restaurants and bars and we enjoyed some amazing Greek food! I would definitely recommend the Keri trip,seeing the turtles was amazing as was swimming in the clear blue Ionian sea! All in all we had a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend it!😎🌞

After reading the reviews for this hotel I did not know what to expect. I can say do not take notice of the poor reviews, we are leaving today after a wonderful 11 night stay. The family that own the hotel are friendly, as are the other staff and although it may be a little dated it is clean and tidy. During our 11 night stay our towels and bedding were changed around 3 times and when we asked for clean towels on another day, they were happy to help. I also do not understand the reviews saying Argassi town is far from the hotel?! It is a 10 minute walk at max which is no problem what so ever! Yes, the roads can be a bit dicey but of you're sensible this is no issue! Overall, Argassi is a beautiful holiday destination and Agoulos Beach Hotel has been accommodating and enjoyable! The bonus has been the families gorgeous new puppy who we've loved watching run around the grass 🥰
