Our stay at Domes Aulūs Zante was overall a wonderful experience. The resort is beautifully located right on the beach, famous for the protected Caretta caretta sea turtles, which made the setting feel truly unique and special. Waking up to the sea view and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere around the bay was unforgettable.
The food was excellent as well, with plenty of variety, fresh dishes, and something delicious for everyone. In addition, the staff was friendly, and the entire resort was clean and well-maintained. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The bathroom in the room was quite small, which was sometimes a bit inconvenient. The water pressure in the shower could also have been better, and the water temperature was not always stable. Despite these minor issues, we genuinely enjoyed our stay. The stunning beachfront location, the beautiful surroundings, and the excellent service more than made up for them. We would definitely recommend Domes Aulūs Zante to anyone looking for a luxurious and peaceful getaway on Zakynthos, especially with the unique experience of staying near the Caretta caretta turtles.

haven’t been in a five star hotel this bad for many many years. room one has a broken phone and aircon. room two the light in the wardrobe keeps going on and off like haunted and makes noise. I have to cut off the power of the entire room to disable the annoying sound. I really want to enjoy my holiday. Also the soundproofing of this hotel does not exist.I can’t believe it. I can hear my neighbours talking, when they get up I have to wake up with them, I listen to their shower, blow dry the hair, they drink stuff , they go to bed. Then I can fall asleep. Thanks for the perfect bonding opportunity with people I don’t even know or met. In addition the highlight is the shower goes from warm water to cold water in less than one second randomly. Haven’t been in a five star hotel this bad any where else I have been to. The buffet main canteen has no service, one of the other all inclusive hotels in Egypt at least there’s people asking if you need a coffee, tea or anything when you sit down. Can’t imagine how this place would operate during peak season. please come if you want to enjoy an aircon works like a tractor or a haunted wardrobe. Ruined my good mood for the holiday.

**5 Stars – A Perfect Stay with Just One Tiny Snag**
We recently spent 7 nights at Domus Aulus Resort and had an absolutely wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and professional, the grounds were beautiful, and the attention to detail throughout the resort was exceptional.
Our room was spacious, tastefully designed, and very comfortable throughout our stay. The amenities across the property made it easy to relax and unwind, and there was always something to do or explore. Whether lounging by the pool, enjoying the spa, or simply taking in the stunning views, every moment felt like a true escape.
The only small issue we encountered was with the restaurant booking system. With several dining options on-site, we were excited to try them all, but unfortunately, the reservation process made it difficult to experience each one during our stay. A bit more flexibility or availability would have made the culinary experience as perfect as the rest of the resort.
That said, the food we *did* manage to enjoy was excellent — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.
Overall, Domus Aulus Resort exceeded our expectations and left us with unforgettable memories. We’d happily return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious and relaxing getaway.

The accommodation, the beach and the food were fine, but that's it. The hotel didn't seem prepared for rainy weather. Since our room was outside the main building, we got wet every time we went to the restaurants. One of the restaurants was outside and it was freezing. All the activities, such as Pilates and the saxophone night, didn't take place because of the weather, and nobody informed us even though we had officially booked the classes. No one cared to cover the day beds and chairs outside, so everything was wet after it rained. The wellness and spa didn't include a sauna or anything other than massages. Another disappointing thing was that, despite the information on platforms like Booking.com and the photos on the website, there were no bicycles, not even for rent. This was one of the main reasons we chose this hotel, but the staff didn't try to resolve the issue. Overall, the staff were not particularly helpful, and sometimes not even friendly. Of course, this doesn't apply to every staff member. The last and biggest problem was the food. Since one of us is vegan, we chose this hotel because it advertised food for all kinds of restricted eaters, but nothing at the buffet was labelled as vegan. We had to ask the staff every time, but often didn't receive an answer. One day, one of the cooks told us that the baklava was vegan; the next day, another cook told us that it was made with butter. So, if you have any allergies or are vegan, we can't recommend this hotel. There were also vegan options, but not many. The à la carte restaurants had more options, but you had to book in advance. On the first day, however, we couldn't even get a reservation for all of them because some were already fully booked.
Overall, it's a nice hotel, but we don't think it lives up to the expectations created by the advertising and the price.

This was our third visit to the Domes catalogue and first time to Zante. The hotel's location was perfect, far enough away from the nightlife but easy to walk to from the beach (approx 20 mins).
The hotel was clean, smelt nice and the staff were polite and professional. The swimming pool wasn't heated but during the summer I would imagine it would warm up. Though on our visit it was ice cold. The food and drink selection was big and good.
My negatives were as follows:
Bed - Very hard and I had hip and shoulder ache. Which resulted in a poor sleep every night.
Shower - Weak and no constant heat (went from boiling to freezing without warning)
