Is a Solos Exclusives Trip Right For You?

Is a Solos Exclusives Trip Right For You?

Our Solos Exclusives trips are our most popular vacation style—small by design and reserved entirely for our guests. You won't be one of the few solo travelers in a large resort; you'll be part of a small group of like-minded solo travelers staying at a property exclusively reserved for Solos guests.

Who this trip style is for:

  • The First-Timer: Perfect if you're looking to dip your toe into the world of group travel without the "what-ifs." We help take care of the logistics, from flight arrangements to airport transfers, providing peace of mind throughout your vacation. With an experienced Tour Leader on-site to ensure everything runs smoothly, you'll enjoy the security of a group vacation with the freedom to spend your time exactly how you want.
  • The Social Soul: For those who enjoy the excitement of a group but value the privacy of their own space. You'll find a warm, easygoing atmosphere by the pool and plenty of opportunities to share stories over drinks from the honesty bar, all while enjoying the comfort of a private studio with no single supplement.
  • The Explorer: For travelers who want the freedom to choose between a quiet morning with a book, a boat trip to the famous Smugglers Cove, or a hike through Zante's olive groves. You'll have complete flexibility—join optional excursions or take a short 650-foot walk to the golden sandy beach. You don't have to spend all your time lounging by the pool (unless you want to!).
  • The Authentic Traveler: Ideal if you prefer intimate, family-run hotels over large resort chains. Our hosts at Angela Studios offer a home-away-from-home atmosphere, providing the kind of personalized attention and genuine Greek hospitality you'll only find in a boutique retreat in the heart of a traditional seaside village.

Trip Reviews

A Great Bunch of People

The group all mixed and were great fun, a great bunch of people. The resort had a good mix of quiet for downtime, nice bars and restaurants in the evening. The Angela apartments have been decorated since my last visit and they are now modern with the upgraded. Gary our rep was fab, he went above and beyond to make everyone feel included and entertain us either his jokes or quizzes.

Gratuities
There is often confusion on the question of gratuities, since it frequently depends on the type of holiday, location and, of course, your attitude towards tipping, as to what is normally expected. In order to give you a rough idea, we have given appropriate guidance below. Your Tour Leader will be on hand to offer advice or suggestions if required but gratuities are offered entirely at the sole discretion of the individual. We suggest a group collection to cover drivers, porters and hotel staff of €25.00 per week. 
 
Your Tour Leader will collect this on your behalf and distribute it accordingly, thus relieving you of the burden of who, when and how much to tip. The tipping of housekeeping will be left to your individual discretion (a small amount left in your room on departure should cover this and would be much appreciated). As is customary, ‘the hat’ will be passed around for the driver and guide on all optional excursions. For any meals that are not included in your itinerary, or taxi fares, your Tour Leader can advise of an appropriate % add on.
Dress Code
Casual, cotton, lightweight daytime wear is the order of the day. Comfortable shoes are a must for sightseeing. Smart casual clothes are ideal for the evening. Early and late season evenings can be cool so do ensure that you take a cardigan or jacket and even some rainwear – particularly in May and June when you may experience some spring thunderstorms followed by scorching days!
Flight Information

There are no nonstop flights from the United States to Zakynthos, but the island is easy to reach with convenient connections through major European hubs. The fastest and most affordable itineraries usually connect through Athens or London, where frequent onward flights make layovers short—often just a couple of hours.

For East Coast travelers, total journey times average 12.5–15 hours. Multiple daily nonstop flights operate from New York (JFK and Newark) to Athens, served by airlines such as United, Emirates, Aegean, and Norse. With several carriers to choose from, it’s often possible to use frequent flyer miles and start your trip in comfort.

From the West Coast, you’ll find good options as well. Los Angeles (LAX) offers around nine direct flights per week to Athens, with flight times of just under 13 hours. With regular connections from Athens to Zakynthos, the total travel time typically falls between 15–17 hours.

When planning your trip, keep in mind that Zakynthos International Airport may also be listed as Zante Airport (ZTH).

After landing, you’ll be greeted at the airport and taken straight to your hotel in about 30 minutes. No navigating buses or negotiating with taxis—just a smooth ride that gets you checked in and ready to enjoy a refreshing swim or a relaxing drink by the pool in no time.

Passport, Visa & Entry Requirements Greece

We recommend that you check passport and visa requirements for the country you are visiting at the State Department if you have a U.S. Passport. Most countries require that your passport have at least six months validity when traveling internationally, and many require that you have one to two blank visa pages for either an entry stamp or visa. As a general rule, please check that your passport has six months validity beyond your planned trip, and if not, please renew your passport with plenty of time to provide Solos with your updated passport information by the final payment due date.
