“Highlight of our island-hopping holiday”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 November 2011

people found this review helpful

During our travels we have never met more charming hosts then Helen and Nick, they really take it to the next level! We were traveling with our 1,5 year old son and we felt very welcome as a family. Really everything about this place is amazing. The Zanzibar room is like an African fairy tale, the garden is amazing, the breakfast delicious (understatement), the surroundings just plane beautiful with old olive trees and an amazing view. An excellent restaurant just around the corner and an amazing walk down-hill to Logos, which was the most pleasant place to wander around and have some dinner or lunch on the waterfront.
I recommended this place to my sister for her honeymoon, because this would be exactly the place where I would spend mine!

“you won't be disappointed....”

We booked a very very last minute stay at Zakspitaki - aka "Big Nick's" - in June and had the most wonderful time.

Helen and Nick were fantastic hosts and provided just the right amount of information on how to spend our days on Paxos. Great recommendations, thank you.

The best bit for me were the relaxing and delicious breakfasts. It was only the thought of the delights of paxos that enticed me to stir from the day bed by the plunge pool.

I'd recommend the local restaurant, hiring a boat from Loggos and the walking, but take Helen's advice and go in the cool evenings.

“A Great Escape”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2011

We have just returned from a fantastic stay with Nick and Helen at their beautiful home in Paxos.
We stayed in the Zanzibar room for the first 4 nights which is even nicer than the photos. The standard of the decor and all the work done on the property is excellent. You feel as though you are staying in a boutique hotel rather than a b&b. As we were the last guests of the season, Helen upgraded us for the last four nights to the stone cottage in the garden, which again is beautifully decorated and has everything you could need in it.
The best thing about staying here though is the hosts. Helen's breakfasts are delicious and every day she made us different cakes and bread, all of which were really tasty, and you are just made to feel really welcome.
The property is about 20mins walk from the beach, but we really enjoyed the walk each day and only hired a car for one day when the weather wasn't so good. Helen arranged all this for us and suggested walks and places to eat etc.
We really hope that we will be able to stay here next time we travel to Paxos. This was our third stay on the island and this is easily the best place to stay.

“Perfect for a relaxing break”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2011

Looking for a Greek island where we could escape from London for a few days we came across Paxos, and from Trip Advisor we choose Zakspitaki near Loggos. We certainly didn't regret our choice, Nick and Helen were wonderful hosts and the home cooked breakfasts really are as good as everyone says, each day bringing a different selection of tasty fresh breads, meat, cheese, preserves, lemon curd, cakes, cookies...

We stayed in the cottage which was large, well equipped, very nicely decorated with a lovely kitchen which we really made the most of by using it to, er... cut limes for our afternoon G&T's and to keep the wine and beer cold. Had we wanted to rustle up a feast it was good to know it was there, but the local restaurants were just too tempting.

The terrace outside our bedroom had a lovely view of the well tended garden and out across the sea, but bear in mind that the price of the bird's eye view is a fairly steep walk to get down to the beaches and to Loggos (a lovely picturesque walk down, a bit of a chore coming back - although I suppose it does help you work off all that humous).

Our week there felt like a second honeymoon and we would happily go back again - what more can you say!

“Two weeks in Heaven!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 October 2011

After a stressful year, arriving at Helen and Nick's 'Summerhouse', tucked away at the back of their rambling garden felt like stepping straight into paradise. I loved my little shaded sitting area where, surrounded by roses, vines and gnarled olive trees, I sat looking out onto the sea. My bed was the most comfortable I had ever slept in, and it had the added bonus of a mosquito net! Then there was the shower room which, apart from its beautiful stained glass windows, afforded a fantastic view of the sea.The rooms were spotlessly clean and comfortable . Each morning Helen served a glorious breakfast of mostly homemade breads and cakes, local honey and yogurt and fruit. There was enough to pack a parcel for lunch (something Helen suggested). She also helped me out with extra maps and detailed descriptions of local walks and shortcuts to the different beaches in the area and other useful information. The only thing that could have improved my stay was the relative distance of the house from the coast. Most guests rented a car. I decided to walk and found that it took me a good 20 minutes down to Loggos. The return journey, uphill, took a little longer. Still, the advantages of the beautiful setting outweighed the disadvantage. I had the most wonderful time.
