Zante for a lads holiday - would you recommend it?

I am proud to say I am not a 'lad' by the modern, and frankly erroneous and grating, definition, but for those who have a brain a lad is quite exactly what you said it wasn't.

I might also add that snobbish is not born out of having a sense of decency. Who in their right minds would willingly go one of these places if they had any dignity?!

I went to Zante last year and I didnt notice it being a sausage fest and Im a girl! It was pretty much 50:50. I'm off to Magaluf this year and supposedly that is a sausage fest.

I had the most amazing time ever in Zante though. I really want to go back. You will love it. I stayed in Bluebell apartments, 10 mins from the strip and 1 minute from the beach PM me if you want any info. It's defo somewhere to go.

I went this year with my mates and it was decidedly average- not a patch on the hype.
Huge sausage fest, and 90% of them irritating chavvy idiots. Nightlife was overrated, drink prices not great, and very questionable alcohol content in the "deals" you get offered as you go down the strip. Beaches wasn't great either.

The previous year we went to Sunny Beach in Bulgaria- and that was amazing. Loads of lovely European girls, not overrun with pikeys, dirt cheap beer, nightlife that blows Zante away, better beaches, overall just a far better holiday. But people continue to go to Zante cos it's "Zante bruvvvvv tattoo Zante on our arse yeahhh". Zante appeals to a certain (read: chav) type of person imo.

I would definitely give it a go at one of these places. The only thing that has so far stopped me is that I would much prefer to spend £600 on going on a language course abroad or interailling. I may have guttingly missed out on the STDs and getting "im a stupid c***" tattooed on my forehead, but I prefer get smashed with Germans, Czechs, the Japanese, Poles etc then a bunch of people who I could probably find during the average night up Watford back home.

Oh god me and my boyfriend have booked a holiday to Zante. The area looked lovely and quiet and peaceful and the apartment owner assured us it was very private, but when I see threads like this and the god-awful facebook group filled with chavs it makes me want to cry.

I'm sorry, but if you want a quiet and relaxing holiday, Zante is NOT the place to go. I mean there are quieter areas, Laganas is the main party bit so just don't go anywhere near there and it'll be quit(er). But my friend went to the quieter bit of Zante with her family about 2 years ago and there was still a big party atmosphere even they were in the'quiet' bit.

I would recommend, for next time, to go somewhere without any kind of party area, otherwise it'll never be peaceful.

You didn't realise Zante was like that before you booked? Oh dear...

I'd never heard of it before, I was going by the reccomendation of a friend, who I have since realised is a slut.

Do it! my lad mates went last year and all came back with the word ZaNtE tattooed on there bums haa.
Or theres aiya napa, magaluf, faliraki, playa de las americas in tenerife or kos?

****LAD grr humphhdh crapbants kjkjhjkh unsound banter cjfjkfhjhf GAY herp derp.

I completely agree, why would you blow hundreds of pounds going to blackpool in the heat? Don't kids do real travelling anymore?

I think the worse part is that the place just resembles a provincial british town centre - it's just not very imaginative. When the worlds your oyster - you don't settle for Malia

Hola, i'm organising a masssive trip to Laganas (like 60-70 people haha), Tell me, how much did you pay for Bluebell apartments?
Was it good?
How many people per a room?
How much did your holiday cost overall roughly?

THANKS X
