A family resort next door to Laganas
Kalamaki lies on the eastern side of Laganas Bay, a short drive from Zakynthos Town and right next to the airport. Its main road has restaurants, small hotels, shops and bars, but the atmosphere is relaxed and the evenings end earlier than on the Laganas strip, which is only a few minutes away when you want it.
Around the resort the land is flat and green, with gardens, small fields and family houses. Many properties here are within walking distance of the beach.
Why buyers choose Kalamaki
It is practical. Guests land and reach their holiday home in minutes, owners can come for short stays, and the town with its shops and services is close. Family holiday rentals do well here because the resort is calm, the beach is sandy and shallow, and Laganas is close for anyone who wants a livelier night.
For buyers who want to live on the island for longer periods, Kalamaki also works outside the summer, because Zakynthos Town and its year-round services are so near.
What to know before you buy
Kalamaki beach is one of the protected loggerhead turtle nesting beaches of the National Marine Park of Zakynthos. Access is restricted at night in the nesting season, and building rules near the beach are strict. Your lawyer and engineer confirm what applies to each property.
Because the resort is next to the airport, aircraft are part of daily life in summer. Some buyers do not notice it after a day, others prefer to be further away. Visit at a busy time of day and decide for yourself.
Who Kalamaki suits
Families, couples, buyers who want an easy holiday home close to the airport and town, and investors looking for steady family rentals rather than nightlife bookings.
