Hotel information
Located on a private sandy beach on the island of Zakynthos (Zante), this boutique resort offers a range of villas on the beach, all with private pools.
One, two three or four-bedroom villas are all exquisitely designed, featuring paintings by celebrated local artists and carefully curated furnishings by Armani Casa and Gervasoni. You’ll also find Bang & Olufsen entertainment technology, BVLGARI amenities and Bernardaud porcelain among the upscale touches.
Porto Zante Villas & Spa has won a host of awards, including the title of Europe’s Leading Villa Resort (World Travel Awards) and being named in both the 2024 Gold List - World’s Best Hotels & Resorts, and one of the World's Best Family Hotels for 2022 by Condé Nast Traveller US & UK, one of the top 25 Ultraluxe Resorts in the World by Virtuoso, and the Top 100 Hotels of the World by Hideaways.
Those travelling with younger guests will find plenty of family-friendly facilities to keep little ones entertained, with a kid’s club, beautiful beach, plenty of pool toys and great watersports all on offer.
