We are going to the Alykanas Village for 2 weeks on the 13th and can't wait! We have never been to Zakynthos before, let alone Alykes/Alykanas, and want to know what places I must not miss for eating and drinking. Everyone seems to love the area and return again and again, so letting me know...

We have recently come back from Alykanas, and had a great holiday. So much so that we are already thinking of next year! We have found a lovely house to stay, but are a bit worried about the flights in August 2011 as you obviously can't check yet. There is 2 adults and 2 children, and I was...
