The apartments are absolutely perfect, even better than the photos. Everything inside and out is immaculately clean and well-kept, the kitchen is really well equipped and the views are just stunning.
Ivana couldn't have been more helpful, arranging a taxi for us from the airport and explaining to them that we would need to stop at a supermarket on the way to stock up as we didn't hire a car. We did a bigger shop on the way from the airport however there is a mini-market a few minutes walk from the apartments which stocks all the basics.
Makris Gialos is a lovely, clean and sunny beach but there are also several other smaller beaches within easy walk of the apartments which are well worth a visit.
The location is quiet and peaceful but there are still 4 restaurants and 2 cafe bars within a few minutes walk. We can highly recommend Ivana and Dionysios' restaurant next door which ticks all the boxes of being beautiful, fantastic food and service and also the cheapest. We ate there numerous times during our stay and the food (and their own wine) was always excellent.
In all we had a wonderfully relaxing break which was exactly what we needed. If you want somewhere away from the bustling resorts but still with places to eat and drink, and fantastic views and beaches, you can't go wrong here.
Thank you Ivana and Dionysios for your great hospitality.

Paradise on your doorstep
The property was of a high standard and the hosts were lovely, helpful and very attentive. Their restaurant served delicious, well priced food and again the owners couldn't do enough for us.
The location is perfect and within a short walk of one of the nicest beaches on the island, with amazing snorkeling where we saw a range of beautiful fish, a sea snail and even an octopus! It's also within easy driving distance of all the major attractions that Zakynthos has to offer.
Perfect place to have a relaxing and beautiful holiday.

Modernes Appartement mit Meerblick
Die kleine Anlage mit 8 Appartements ist super gepflegt und sehr hochwertig ausgestattet. Alle Wohneinheiten haben direkten Meerblick. Die Vermieter umsorgen ihre Gäste und leben ihren Service. Absolut empfehlenswert!

We stayed for a week and it couldn't have been better!! The appartment was perfect and clean with a marvelous seesight. The pictures didn't lie! In the appartment was all we needed. Ivana and her husband were very kind and were always there for you if you needed them. Their restaurant next door was also very good. We loved the food and the price was good. The beautiful beach was nearby, just a 5 minutes walk. Our children didn't miss a swimmingpool at all. We would go back right away!

Toller Urlaub
Wir waren begeistert! Es war nichts beschönigt in den Beschreibungen. Wir würden wiederkommen und das Objekt auch weiterempfehlen. Die Kommunikation unmittelbar mit dem Vermieter war sehr gut; die Kommunikation mit FeWo-direkt ist verbesserungswürdig, insbesondere was die Zahlungsangaben betrifft.

Wunderschöner Urlaub bei lieben Gastgebern
Wir wurden von Ivana, Dionisis und ihrem Team herzlichst aufgenommen und liebevoll umsorgt. Die Unterkunft liegt abseits vom Touristentrubel in einer wunderschönen, kleinen Bucht; ein Ort der Entspannung, aber auch ein guter Ausgangspunkt um die Insel zu erkunden.
Das Apartement ist makellos sauber, geschmackvoll eingerichtet und bietet alles, was man im Urlaub benötigt. Der Blick von der großen Terasse ist umwerfend. Auch das Umfeld der Unterkunft wurde liebevoll gestaltet mit schönen Sitz- und Liegemöglichkeiten z.B. unter einem alten Olivenbaum.
In der angrenzenden Taverne wurden wir ebenfalls sehr verwöhnt mit leckerem Essen und sehr gutem Wein. Ivana ist eine Spitzenköchin.
Ein wunderschöner Urlaub.
Vielen Dank an Ivana, Dionisis und ihrem Team.

First time in Greece and we hit the jackpot
Before we booked, we read through the reviews and were very impressed with the praise within them.
We booked an apartment for 3 weeks and a car for the duration with an intention to explore the island from this base.
The trip from the airport to the apartment (approx 40 mins) is very easy and took us through some beautiful villages and amazing landscapes.
On arrival we received a very warm welcome from Ivana who explained everything we needed to know about the apartments and local area.
The apartments are superb and exactly as you see them in the website photos. They are well equipped, very clean, spacious and the location is awesome with picturesque views.
Ivana and Dionysis have their restaurant next to the apartments and we highly recommend their food along with their own excellent wine and olive oil.
Makris Gialos beach is beautiful and only a couple of minutes walk, the water is very clear and good for swimming or you can just relax whilst enjoying the sun.
There a small supermarket close by and several restaurants within a short walking distance.
Thank you Ivana, Dionysis and staff for looking after us so well, your attention to detail, the facilities you provide along with your passion for your home is second to none and a credit to you.
Again, thank you and we will return.

Thankyou Ivana and family the apartments were beautiful and clean very spacious and a beautiful spot.The only downside is the location, quite isolated so you will definitely need a car or a good pair of legs as there are no buses the nearest resort is a 15minutes car journey,we would definitely return in the future.

Our hosts were gracious, informative, and hospitable. We could have not asked for a better place to stay. Ivana and Dionis made us feel like family while staying there. We look forward to coming back to this place and will recommend their place. If you book at their place you will not be disappointed in this little piece of paradise.

Wunderschöne Anlage und sehr herzliche Atmosphäre
Wir haben eine Woche in einem Superior Apartment verbracht und waren überwältigt. Die Bilder entsprechen der Realität. Die Apartments und Anlage sind top gepflegt und sehr sauber. Die Ausstattung der Küche ist perfekt. Der Blick vom Balkon ist einfach nur wow :-) Die Vermieter Ivana und Dionisis sind sehr herzlich und gastfreundlich. Sie stehen jederzeit für Fragen und Wünsche zur Verfügung. Die angeschlossene Taverne haben wir fast täglich besucht und auch hier fühlten wir uns sehr wohl. Die Speisen und Weine waren sehr lecker und von guter Qualität. Des Weiteren hat man einen Strand quasi vor der Tür, einen Minimarkt und auch weitere Tavernen sind fussläufig erreichbar. Ansonsten sollte man sich ein Auto mieten, um die Schönheit der Insel zu genießen. Sehr wehmütig sind wir abgereist. Wir sagen herzlichen Dank liebe Ivana und Dionisis für eine traumhafte Zeit! Ihr seid tolle Gastgeber!

Ausgezeichnet!!!!!!
Es waren vier unvergessliche Tage, die wir in Makris Gialos verbracht haben. Es ist ein Ort, wohin man wieder zurückkehren möchte. Ivana und Dionisis sind sehr nette und gastfreundliche Gastgeber, die alles tun, damit sich Ihre Gäste wohl fühlen. Die Apartments sind sehr sauber und geschmacksvoll, mit viel Liebe zu kleinen Details, eingerichtet. Im Restaurant werden sowie die europeischen als auch griechischen Gerichte, der köstliche hausgemachte Wein mit viel Liebe serviert.
Vielen herzlichen Dank!!!

Perfekte Location, sauber, ideal wenn man etwas weg von den "Bettenburgen" sein will
Der Aufenthalt in der Ferienwohnung war perfekt. Sehr sauber gepflegte Anlage. Täglich kommt der Bäcker. In der unmittelbaren Nähe einige Möglichkeiten für Abendessen. Essen in der vom Vermieter betriebenen Taverne ist auch exzellent. Ist ein sehr guter Ausgangspunkt um den etwas ruhigeren nördlichen Teil der Insel zu erkunden. Ein eigenes Auto ist aber sehr vorteilhaft.
Alles in allem ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt wenn man etwas Individualität liebt.

Our stay at Makris Gialos was amazing. Ivana and Dionysis saw to every detail and were wonderful hosts. Their on-site Taverna was both rustic and delicious and their suggestions for activities on Zakynthos were spot-on. We cannot wait to return in future trips abroad and can't recommend these apartments enough. Many thanks, Ivana and Dionysis!

Gentilezza con vista
Abbiamo da poco concluso la nostra vacanza e non posso che consigliere questo appartamento. Posto in una zona tranquilla di Zante, con una meravigliosa vista mare, arredi nuovi, tutto pulitissimo e gestito da Ivana e suo marito che sono speciali e sempre disponibili per un aiuto o semplicemente un consiglio!

Preface--- this will be a long review of extensive praise. For those who won't read the whole thing and want a summary: STAY HERE.
My friend and I spent a week at the Makris Gialos Apartments and fell in love instantly upon arrival. The pictures provided are completely accurate and totally unedited, but the beauty of the images doesn't even compare to what it's like to actually be there. You are steps from the most insanely blue water you've ever seen, water you can see and hear from every apartment balcony. There are other restaurants within walking distance of the apartments, but the food is so good at the restaurant that we ate every meal there--- Ivana and Dionisis cook themselves, traditional Greek food, including fish caught and delivered every morning.
As hosts, Ivana and Dionisis are top--- friendly and helpful and totally accommodating. It was our first time in Greece, and Ivana got a sense of our taste right away, and every morning she suggested an activity that we always loved. She even remembered our dietary restrictions after being told once, and always prepared the food accordingly.
The property is immaculate. Very, very clean, beautiful and well-done (Dionisis built it himself!). It was paradise and I'm still dreaming about it. I'd recommend this place to anyone--- my family, friends, and total strangers.
You can get all your beach supplies and needs from shops within walking distance. And from the apartments you can snorkel and swim in many coves nearby. When we were there in June, we were often alone on all of these beaches. You're also a mere 15 minutes from the Blue Caves, and getting a boat to the famous Shipwreck beach from the apartments is very easy--- many, many options from small to large boat tours, and even renting your own.
You won't believe the quiet and calm and privacy of these apartments and location.
Do rent a car so you can explore the island, but you'll always be happy that you're staying at Makris Gialos and not in one of the party-oriented towns. Nice to be able to travel to those towns, but even nicer to be able to come home to Makris Gialos.
Stop searching and book this place now.
Thank you Ivana and Dionisis!!
