Shades of Zante 3, Alykes

Shades of Zante 3 is a small, well-regarded stay in Alykes, Zakynthos, Greece, set in the Alykon area and geared toward travellers who want an easy base for sea and day trips. With a guest rating of 9.4/10 from six reviews, visitors tend to highlight the calm, practical setup and the helpfulness of the team when planning time around the island. The apartments are designed for comfortable downtime, with air conditioning for warm afternoons and non-smoking rooms for a fresher feel. If you’re travelling with family, the availability of family rooms makes it simpler to keep everyone on the same schedule, while the safety deposit box adds peace of mind for passports and valuables.

A big part of the appeal here is how straightforward it is to get out and explore: Alykes Beach is about 0.6 km away and Alykanas Beach is roughly 0.8 km, so you can return to your accommodation between swims. For iconic scenery, Blue Caves and Shipwreck Beach are both around 25 km, making this a sensible base for organised excursions or a self-drive day. Guests also mention valuing the guest education on local ecosystems and culture, which helps you understand what you’re seeing rather than just ticking off viewpoints.

With a tour desk, car hire support, and offsite parking with discounted rates, the logistics are handled for independent travellers. Ironing service is also available for those who want to arrive looking sharp after travel days. Check-in runs from 3:00 PM to midnight, and check-out is at 11:00 AM.
