Спокойный отдых в Плака-Литохоро Quiet rest in Plaka Litochoro

In Greece, vacationing with her husband for the first time. The hotel fully corresponds to the stated in the description - a refined, beautifully designed, cozy hotel. There are no complaints to the staff - they cleaned every day and put shampoos on, and always smiled.
The hotel is really on the outskirts, as well as other hotels we visited, in Pieria. Buses did not run nearby in September - all trips are possible by taxi or car rental. There are mini-markets at the campsites, which are on both sides of the hotel, but they also did not work. Found on the left side of the beach one type of boxes in 5 minutes. walk, where they bought water: 1.5 liters - 1E, and cola, Fanta 1.5 liters - 2E. People walked along the shore to the right to the store - about 5 km. They went out after breakfast, and returned to dinner))) Everything is usually cheaper there (wine 3 liters - 4E). We bought all the spirits we needed right away at Duty Free.
The only downside of the hotel - they do not welcome vacationers with a birthday (this is the hotel policy, our guide Nina told us) - in other hotels welcome. It was not very pleasant considering that the date of birth was celebrated round. (Thank you Nina-guide at least congratulations - I gave a CD with Greek music. A trifle - but nice: -). Here are the hospitable and generous people. )

I do not agree with the reviews about breakfasts, that they were practically absent - no, there was a lot of food, but everything was repeated. For some reason, olives were never given. Dinner was sometimes very modest. From fruits - apples and grapes, only a few times gave watermelons, from sweet 1 kind of cake or souffle.
To the sea to go by road a fast step of 2 minutes. Entrance to the sea is very difficult, large stones, but we were ready for it and I took special shoes bought in Egypt, and my husband bought there for 5 euros.
At the end of September, we were not charged for sunbeds and umbrellas in the form of ordering drinks at the bar - the bar on the beach did not work at all. Sun loungers by the pool are always free. Many Greeks rested on the beach, everyone had enough sunbeds, but they are very loud, you want to lie down to listen to the sound of the sea, and have to listen to them. Therefore, we often lay by the pool, where there were very few people, and went swimming in the sea. The pool is also normal.
We lived on the second floor, overlooking Mount Olympus and the olive grove, the sun was always there in the afternoon, there was also a separate balcony, as on the 3rd floor. And on the ground floor there were common type balconies for 2 and 3 rooms with access to the lawn. When people asked to change the room for 2 or 3 floors, they were asked to pay a surcharge of 15E per day, and we had written in the vouchers - mountain views and the presence of a balcony (and the price was not affected). The room was nice, free safe, Wi-Fi too.
There was live Greek music over the weekend.
There was no other entertainment.
No complaints about Mouzenidis Travel - we were taken from the airport to the hotel in 1 hour. 30 minutes on the minivan. We went back longer and by bus.
We went on excursions to Meteora - got a lot of impressions from what we saw - it's really a miracle, I want to look at these rocks and monasteries again and again. There you really gain strength and enjoy unforgettable beauty. We also went on a cruise to the island of Skiathos - had fun from the heart. Captain Costas is a super "toastmaster". Greek dances, metax, sea, waves, romance… I really liked both trips. After walking around the island, we decided that the next trip to Greece will be on the island.

Summing up, I will say - our holiday, like all previous ones - was a success. He was unique. We walked between in a pomegranate garden and between persimmon trees. Every day we enjoyed the view of Mount Olympus.
Having visited the homeland of great ancient civilizations, which still breathes history, we are sure that we will definitely come to another, but more infrastructurally developed place. We have seen so little. ; -)
