Very nice atmosphere

Lovely return visit to the Valais , staff lovely , great facilities, so chilled , will definitely return again !

Excellent location

Great hotel stay and food was lovely, staff were very friendly and helpful. Will be returning in September

Pro : hotel by the sea , fab staff , really perfect place to stay . Cons : showers and bathroom ergonomics need thinking about and a mirror for on coming traffic on the very busy corner where pedestrians cross to reach the beach .

Lovely palace to stay, clean and tidy staff can’t do enough for you.

We stayed at the Valais in late September/early October this year, & had a wonderfully relaxing & enjoyable week. The hotel is right on the beach, which is sandy, & the sea is shallow for a long way out, making it very safe for swimming. We particularly enjoyed the "beach butler" service, which meant we could eat lunch & get drinks without ever moving from our sunbeds, & breakfast on the terrace with a perfect beach view. The hotel itself is clean, modern & comfortable, & there are multiple screens in the bar showing all the football games you could want. It was never noisy though, & the location away from the main village is very peaceful. We found a lovely taverna "Neraida" just two minutes' walk away near the little harbour, with a very traditional Greek menu & a beach view perfect for watching the sun set behind the mountains opposite. We ate there most nights. The main village is a five-ten minute walk away if you fancy more variety, but most of the eateries there seem more "touristy" & less Greek. The hotel has a pool & a variety of watersports & boat trips on offer, although we didn't make use of them. The staff are friendly & couldn't do enough to make sure we were well looked after. We would like to thank Julie, Katerina, Christos & especially Riz who was so helpful when my partner managed to injure himself one night - NOT the fault of the hotel by the way! We would definitely stay there again.

Location close to beach and village was great. Staff were great. Hard to find the receptionist, she was never at the desk. Didn't like all the extra charges for loungers ans air con.. Very noisy if you are in a room opposite the Mill Bar. music VERY loud didn't stop till 1:00 AM most nights.

Kids loved it loved how friendly all the staff were loved the pool loved the beach loved it all

Lovely hotel, by the sea. Excellent facilities, friendly staff that really looked after me, food very good. Would thoroughly recommend!

Staff exceptionally welcoming and helpful. Great Pool. Right on the beach. Shame EVERYTHING had to be paid for - this included pool towels, pillows for poolside sun loungers, strange small value "extras" on your bills A/C etc. I din't mind but it took the shine off a little. Personally, I'd rather pay more and have these small things free. Menu was ok but not inspiring. About average cost. Small portions compared to some local restraunts. Drinks were about average cost. We both enjoyed our stay mostly because it was so quiet which may not suit everyone. Would go back.

The family Valais for many years and their staff are long standing, welcoming and really helpful. Positioned at the best place on the lovely safe bay at Alykanas lots of walks, water sports, really recommend

The friendliest hotel I've ever stayed it, made to feel welcome by everyone. The hotel overlooks the beach and is also ideally placed, 5 minutes walk to resort centre but quiet location.

Nice hotel , pleasant staff very welcoming only negative is you have to pay for the ac

Staff very friendly and welcoming. Lovely quiet location (in May). Close to the beach and not too far to walk to local shops and restaurants.

We loved our holiday at this hotel. Everyone was so friendly, and the best staff ever. A peaceful and relaxing holiday. Wish we could have stayed longer. We will definitely be returning,hopefully for a longer stay next time. A massive thank you to all the lovely staff.

Had to change hotels and found this one. Couldn't be more pleased. Lovely clean rooms and the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Would come back again.

Fantastic team of staff here, so friendly and welcoming. Like staying with family. Busy enough to have company if you choose, but quiet enough to relax. Beautiful part of Zante. Our 3rd visit and we love it.

Perfect for a relaxing holiday.Lovely hotel, right next to the beach. Staff always friendly and very helpful.

A fantastic hotel, great location on the beach. All the staff were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble.
