The Balcony Hotel Summary
The Balcony Hotel is ideal for wedding couples seeking an intimate and romantic hideaway, fully immersed in an environment that represents all that is quintessentially Greek. Wonderfully located, about 20 metres above sea level, this boutique hotel boasts the most incredible views of the Ionian Sea. If you are seeking a picture postcard backdrop to your wedding celebrations then you’d be hard pushed to find lovelier than this.
We love that this hotel is still a family run affair and as such, you will find traditional Zakynthian architecture and warm hospitality but combined with chic, modern decor. On arrival, you’ll receive the warmest of welcomes in the sun-drenched reception area. This open plan space connects seamlessly with the breakfast room and the restaurant. Best of all, each of these areas boasts the most incredible views out to sea.
Amenities
Simplicity is the focus at the Balcony Hotel and, as such, you will not find an array of activities here. However, this boutique hotel does offer a fabulous location, direct access to a sandy beach, manicured gardens, plush interiors and fine dining. Frankly, all you need for a wonderful stay! Rest assured, those who seek shopping, pavement cafes and livelier evenings, will find exactly that in nearby Tsilivi.
Accommodation
Small and intimate, the Balcony Hotel offers only 32 rooms across 7 room categories. Beginning with the standard rooms offering Mountain Views and the unmistakable scent of the Greek pines to the Executive Suites which offer a romantic hideaway for couples and newlyweds. Whichever you choose, all offer interiors of cool shades, chic furnishings, modern amenities such as air-conditioning and flat screen TV, as well as a fully furnished balcony or terrace.
Weddings
From the wedding terrace at the Balcony Hotel, the view extends from Tsilivi beach to the small fishing harbour with Kefalonia in the distance and to your right the Bodi islands. Thus, offering a stunning backdrop to your special day. This completely private and spacious terrace allows for guests to be seated in formal church style, complete with red carpet, or more casually as you prefer. Afterwards, receptions can take place in the restaurant which offers ample space in which to celebrate and party. Best of all, the renowned Ionian sunset will feature in your evening’s celebrations.
