Go sightseeing in Kastoria
аватар e.l.s
We are also going to Paralia in August-September. On vacation with children and for a fur coat.
Lots of hotels. See exactly Paralia Katerinis, so as not to get to it later by bus. From there you can also go to Kastoria (it seems not so far), rent a car - it costs 35 euros per day - and go by yourself WITHOUT GUIDES. If you go with a guide, they will inflate the price. In general, I have been studying this issue for 3 weeks already, people write that in Paralia everyone buys fur coats if they live there. I am tormented by another question - can you buy for dollars? Or me in euros after all? ....

There are several villages near Katerini. We rested in Leptokarya Poseidon Palace 4 *, 30-40 km from Katerini, either by taxi or by bus. Fur coats bought. The choice seems to me sufficient to buy there, and not go to Kastoria (if you want to go to the Katerini region). From Katerini, by the way, it is much closer to go on excursions, which is why we chose this particular region for recreation. I would not recommend a vacation in Paralia Katerini itself, I would never go there. Mini hotels on top of each other. It is better to go there by bus, set aside one day, and relax in a normal full-fledged hotel with territory. You can also read my review

Thank you, I’ll look at your hotel, otherwise I’m afraid they won’t forgive me for a vacation in a small hotel, a child with my husband. Maybe you liked some other hotels, write, I will be grateful!

I also study, and some tourists say that they also take dollars, and it is also written that the exchange rate is more profitable (euro) in an ATM through a card. I don’t know who to believe. If you find the answer to the question, please let me know, otherwise I myself think that they will take dollars or not?
аватар e.l.s
I decided to change to the euro at home. However, people convinced me. They say the reconversion rate is about the same (at an ATM) as at home, but in a store they may not be very successfully recalculated.
As for small hotels and family vacations. Our family (4 people) are going to Paralia. We decided to take a small hotel, without territory. But it's a double room. Even so, this is not Egypt or Turkey with their huge hotels. We will not sit in the room, we have planned an active holiday: the sea, excursions. We only took breakfast, because we read that there is an incredible number of restaurants and taverns (and the operator girl also advised not to take HB, and even more so ALL). We will rent a car and travel by ourselves. Our children are easy going. The youngest is 7 years old. But I already traveled by car from Minsk to Montenegro as a 5-year-old child, so a seasoned guy) Well, in the evening, my mother (that is, me), without distracting anyone from rest after an active day, will go shopping, take a closer look, ask the price, and then take daddy with him

and more .... I read a lot of reviews that people watched fur coats for almost their entire vacation (every evening). We are all different - someone finds it in a day or two. And it’s hard for someone to decide (all the more you don’t buy a T-shirt). Therefore, think - will it be convenient for you to travel (and more than once) by bus / taxi to Paralia and back? But then again - in no case do not agitate !!!! I write only my opinion. I also considered offers - in the same region, but not in Paralia .... But, thinking that I don’t run over every day (what if I can’t decide in a couple of days?), And then drag the children with me - minus, throw them alone (if I need the help of my husband when choosing) and leave for 5-10 km. - I can't either. So I settled on Paralia. I read reviews of vacationers there with children - everything is not so bad. ))

And what hotel have you chosen for yourself? I liked Kymata 3. Have you decided on the style? I have a problem.
аватар e.l.s
hotel have seen Strass.
I think I'll decide on the spot with the style. I’m not driven to this point, because, for example, I’ll think of one thing, but I’ll like something completely different))))
so you don’t suffer either, decide on the spot when you try on several styles and see what suits you best.

I also liked the rhinestone, but they ask for the sea nearby, so that's it.
аватар e.l.s
Of course, you need to look for compromises! Settle them in a hotel they (relatives) like, but, in turn, let them give you the opportunity to calmly buy a fur product)))))
I wish you a pleasant stay and a VERY successful purchase in every sense (price / quality)!
аватар zax.eva2012
I also wish you a pleasant holiday and shopping!

E.l.s. It will be interesting to read your review if you still go to Katerini. And how can you spend your entire vacation on shopping in search of a fur coat and not relax? What's the point if the cost of the money spent on a tour can be added to the money for a fur coat and buy it at home without wasting time in Greece? I was stressed out for two days. And Katerini, as for me, is not a place to relax at all, especially with small children, because. I take him first of all on vacation. And about nutrition, at the moment a child of 2.5 would never be lucky where there is no All. I need at least some comfort and not a headache - where to feed and what, and the possibility of choosing from the proposed dishes.
аватар e.l.s
To each his own))) 2.5 years old is still a very small child. As I wrote above, I am not campaigning for anyone. I write only my thoughts. I really hope that I don't have to go shopping every day. I will be glad if I decide in two or three days. The question was the original - rest plus buying a fur coat. Fur shops near the rest. Here's what she answered.
Why not buy houses - because here the same Greek fur coats cost twice as much. Why should I overpay?
And why shouldn't I combine leisure with useful work? Paralia is primarily a seaside resort, not a fur coat center. And I have never been to Greece.
So let everyone choose what he likes. My personal opinion - for all I would go to Turkey, Egypt or the Maldives. Family vacation in 2011 in the Maldives. Here it makes a lot of sense to take everything - you can’t get anywhere from the island, go to dinner, except for a couple of restaurants in your own hotel - nowhere)))
When asked if he wants to sit in the hotel in the evenings, my son answered unequivocally - no. It's useless to even ask the eldest daughter - he likes to travel. So we only took breakfast.
Once again, to each his own.
