Hello! This is not the first time we are resting in Greece, but the first time we are resting in Attica. The hotel was chosen according to several criteria: 1) near the sea, 2) beautiful, well-groomed territory, 3) quiet, peaceful place. Our choice fell on the Bomo Calamos 3 * hotel. And, to our happiness, the hotel fully met all the above criteria and fully met our expectations. I must say right away that we have a great experience of relaxing in 3 *, so there is something to compare with. Our hotel is located right between the sea and the mountains, so the view from the room did not bother us - everywhere is beautiful.
The area is very, very beautiful and well maintained. Of the huge variety of plants and flowers, only olive, lemon, orange and fig trees were recognized. Now a few words about the beach. The beach itself is pebbly, the pebbles are large and small, so it is better to swim in special slippers so as not to get hurt (you can buy such slippers right on the territory of the hotel, in a small shop). The beach is clean, there are plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas and they are free, but alas, there are no beach towels. You also need to buy them if you didn’t take your own. You can buy them in the previously mentioned small shop. And white towels should not be taken out of the hotel, upset the staff. The staff are very friendly and do an excellent job. The room was cleaned every day, towels were also changed every day. Our room was small, but very tidy. Everything you need was also there - a mini-fridge, TV, and of course Wi-Fi. A nice bonus was that he worked throughout the hotel, on the beach and in the room.
And now I will touch on perhaps the most important issue - food. We had All inclusive, respectively, 3 meals a day. For breakfast, you could eat sandwiches with sausage or cheese, porridge, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, vegetables, feta cheese, fried or boiled sausages, tea or coffee with cookies (you can add jam or honey, well, or Nutella) and much more, I just mentioned our standard breakfasts. It was a little more difficult with lunch or dinner. Pleased with the presence of many different salads, vegetables, feta cheese already in 4 types, rice or pasta, there were also french fries. In a word, there were a lot of side dishes. But there are few soups, and they alternated 2 types at a time. That is, I was able to eat my favorite lentil soup only 2 times during the whole vacation, but corn soup is also very personal. The meat was fried or boiled chicken, pork and beef (also fried) and sometimes there was just delicious fish in batter. The whole thing can be diluted with a variety of sauces (cocktail, herbal, mustard and a few more different ones). Drinks are also plentiful - juices, sodas, ouzo, wine, tea and coffee. There is also a bar on the territory of the hotel, where you can also enjoy delicious ice cream in unlimited quantities (there is also plenty to choose from + delicious syrups), and all of the above drinks. And for those who don’t have enough, you can order any other cocktail for yourself at the bar, but for an additional fee. We loved taking Aperol Spritz or mojitos there. The atmosphere in the evening is very relaxing and pleasant, especially if you come to the beach at sunset or enjoy a cocktail or tea in a bar with a group of friends. We were very pleased with the hotel and we can safely recommend it to all tourists - with children, couples in love, active tourists and those who come just to lie on the beach. Of the places worth visiting while you are in Attica, definitely Athens and the Acropolis! We went on a sightseeing tour to Athens (with a visit to the Acropolis) from Mouzenidis Travel (their representatives were at our hotel every day). At first they wanted to do it themselves, but it was not very convenient to get there by themselves, so they nevertheless decided on an excursion, which they did not regret. With comfort we got there and back, and most importantly, we learned a lot of interesting and new things about Athens. Our guide was Efthymios (I hope I spelled his name correctly). So, he is just an amazing guide! It can be seen that the person knows history, architecture very well and knows how to interest tourists from the first minute.

Many thanks to the hotel staff, the girls from Mouzenidis Xenia, Yulia and Malika, the wonderful guide Efthymios for the emotions and impressions!
