Lesante Classic

Close to the sands of Tsilivi Beach, Lesante Classic Luxury Hotel & Spa, part of Preferred Hotels & Resorts, is a polished five star Zakynthos resort where generous pools, family friendly facilities and a substantial spa make settling into holiday mode remarkably easy.

Lesante Classic has the reassuring feel of a hotel that knows exactly what its guests come to Zakynthos for. The day revolves around water, with large swimming pools forming the heart of the resort and broad terraces creating plenty of room for long afternoons in the sun, while the beach waits only a short stroll away.

It is an easy place to find your own routine. Families have dedicated spaces and activities, couples can retreat to the spa or choose a suite with its own outdoor hot tub, and Tsilivi is close enough for an evening wander whenever you fancy stepping beyond the hotel. That flexibility is one of its greatest strengths.

Rooms & Suites

Rooms and suites are generously proportioned, with furnished balconies giving every category useful outdoor space. Deluxe and Premium Deluxe Rooms provide comfortable bases for days spent largely beside the pool or beach, while Executive Rooms and the Premium Executive Suite add more living space.

Families have their own Deluxe Family Room, while the Junior and Superior Suites suit guests wanting a little more room to spread out. Sea views are available in the Superior Suite category, bringing the blue of Zakynthos into the room from the moment the curtains are opened.

For a more indulgent stay, the Superior Suite and Grand Suite with Private Outdoor Jetted Tub create a secluded place to return to after the beach. An evening soak on your own terrace before heading downstairs for dinner is a particularly pleasant addition to the traditional resort experience.

Dining

Ambrosia Restaurant carries the hotel from a generous breakfast into dinner, with Greek, local and wider Mediterranean flavours forming the backbone of the menus. It is the sociable heart of the dining experience and works particularly well for families who appreciate plenty of choice.

Neptune changes the pace with à la carte dining and an open kitchen, making it the natural choice when dinner calls for something a little more leisurely. Watching the kitchen at work brings energy to the room while still keeping the evening relaxed.

Nectar Pool Bar takes care of daytime drinks and lighter bites without requiring you to stray far from your lounger, while the Lounge Piano Bar is saved for later. Cocktails, Champagne, live music and occasional jazz evenings give the hotel a proper after dinner atmosphere rather than allowing the day simply to finish when the restaurant closes.

Experience

The pools are where Lesante Classic really comes alive. Two large outdoor swimming pools provide the main focus, with a separate children’s pool allowing younger guests their own space. Sun terraces and loungers surround the water, making this very much the sort of hotel where breakfast can easily be followed by several uninterrupted hours beside the pool.

Children have a kids club, playground and indoor play areas, while bicycle hire, horse riding, diving and cultural experiences offer plenty of possibilities beyond the resort. Tsilivi Beach is close enough to make switching from pool to sea almost effortless.

The location also gives the holiday a welcome degree of independence. Tsilivi’s restaurants, shops and evening life are nearby, so staying at Lesante Classic never means having to choose between the convenience of a resort and being able to wander out under your own steam.

Wellness

The spa is a significant part of the hotel rather than a token treatment room, with an indoor heated pool, hammam, sauna, hot tub and dedicated relaxation areas creating a complete alternative to the outdoor pools. Four massage rooms support an extensive menu of body treatments, facials and beauty therapies.

Yoga, personal training and a fitness centre cater for more energetic mornings, although a swim in the heated pool followed by a massage is an equally persuasive plan. It gives Lesante Classic another dimension, particularly outside the hottest part of the summer or after a full day exploring Zakynthos.

Where

Lesante Classic sits in Tsilivi with the beach only a short walk away and the lively centre of the resort equally accessible. Zakynthos Town is also within easy reach, making this a particularly convenient base for combining relaxed resort days with evenings out and time exploring more of the island.
