Expert Review
Origins
The Paliokaliva site was originally a watchout site for local hunters, peacefully set in the Zakynthian countryside. Fulfilling a vision she’d nurtured since childhood, Anastasia, the owner, bought the land and built the first set of villas. This pioneering project – one of the first hotels on the island purpose built from stone – has grown steadily, adding a pool and a refurbished restaurant in the last few years.
Top Secret
Sitting in the beautifully designed rustic restaurant area, guests can enjoy olive oil made from olive grown on the trees in front of them whilst enjoying a view over the Ionian Set.
The Review
Nicknamed “the flower of the Levant” by its Venetian conquerors in the 15th century, Zakynthos is characterised by a myriad of colourful flowers and lush green hills. Paliokaliva Village is located on one of these hills towards the east of the Island, surrounded by olive groves and conveniently 20 minutes’ drive from both the airport and the port.
On entering the complex through a beautiful Venetian-style stone arch guests are transported to a peaceful mini olive grove surrounded by discrete traditional villas. Once settled in, guests are treated to a melange of local fruits and invited to explore the site, with its relaxing pool area and open communal garden furnished with beanbags and hammocks (adult and child-sized). Travellers looking to escape busy city lives are welcome to relax in the complex, enjoying drinks and snacks at the onsite restaurant and activities that are periodically organised by the hotel.
Those with a taste for exploration will find that Paliokaliva Village is well situated for exploring Zakynthos island, including the stunning Navagio “Shipwreck” Beach (considered by some as the world’s most beautiful beach), one of the oldest olive trees in the world at Exo Hora and the northern mountain village of Kambi, where visitors can enjoy panoramic sunset views after touring ancient Mycenaean tombs.
