Just got back from Corfu yesterday. Stayed at Mareblue Resort and while it’s a really nice hotel probably doesn’t fit your requirements as the nearest town is a 15 minute taxi ride away. Only a couple of bars, a restaurant (traditional taverna) and a beach outside the actual hotel, nowt else.

We are off to Kalamaki end of September. Must have been to Zante about 15 times. Beautiful island. Can't wait.

20 years since I was last in Zante, been looking for weeks for something last minute and the Jet 2 flight although it’s an early one going out, coming back is spot on.

Can’t wait either, desperately need to chill.

Heading over there at the back end of this month.

Any recommendations for decent bars and restaurants?

Staying at the Oro hotel which looks to be on the outskirts of town.

Don't know that hotel. Loads of tavernas bars and restaurants. Look these up To Palouki, The Bourtzi cafe, Pyrofani, Lynhari, Hellinikon in town for meals.
Sea U, 7 Sins, Ginfish in town for drinks.
Thessaloniki taverna at megali ammos beach for lazy lunch.
Blind Dog and Totem in town for live music.

the harbour is always busy but the better bars and restaurants are in the back streets away from the harbour IMO

Cheers, both.

Will make a concerted effort to try all of those.

What's it like price-wise?

Sunbeds 20 euros a pair. We spent about £160 a day. We had lunch every day and only ate out 3 nights out of the 7. Gyros are cheap as chips. On the harbour large beer 5 euros glass of wine 3.5 euros in the places we use. Monitor 10 euros

Dalyan is class. Favourite place in Turkey. It’s the flight times that have put us off. Hence why we’re in Crete
