We rested in Bakos in June 2010. A big plus is the location, the hotel is not on the main street, but on a parallel one, closer to the sea and the promenade. On the main page, according to the reviews of other tourists at night, it was simply impossible, because. cars and motorcycles without mufflers drove at full speed (they allow it), the roar of the engine, music for everything and other such delights.
From the hotel to the beach, walk about 3 minutes, the beach is pebbly, sunbeds and umbrellas can be taken anywhere by buying some drinks at the nearest cafe.
The food at the hotel was different. For all 2 weeks that we stayed there, the breakfast menu never changed: tea, juice (such as "Yupi"), coffee (terrible), milk diluted with water, 2 types of corn flakes, sliced cheese and ham plus bread. That's all there was for breakfast.
The owners of the hotel are 2 Greek brothers. Very friendly, intelligent, educated people, always happy to help and suggest. Room keys are requested to be left at the reception. There is free internet in the lobby, there is a computer.
The rooms are the simplest, no frills, not very new, only the bathroom after renovation. There is air conditioning, TV, fridge and balcony. The balcony, coupled with the neighboring room, is separated only by a glass partition, and that is purely symbolic. If you wish, you can also look and chat with neighbors.
They cleaned the room every day, but once they cleaned it so that when we returned from the beach to the room, we did not find a single towel and sheet on the bed. The next day everything was returned, but the unpleasant aftertaste remained. Another of the minuses is that in the morning for cleaning, the staff practically broke into the room. The woman knocked on the door once and immediately opened it.
A hotel for a relaxing holiday. Of the vacationers, there are many foreigners, there were very few Russians with us. Germans mostly.
The hotel has no territory, but there is a small swimming pool, and around beautiful orange and lemon trees, around sunbeds and umbrellas, there are tables.
Near the hotel, on the main street, there is a grocery supermarket, a communication salon, where you can buy a local SIM card.
In general, if you are not going to sit still and you are interested in outdoor activities, then Bacos is quite a worthy option for this.
The sea is mostly clean, but when there are waves and wind, it can be very dirty, a bunch of plastic bags and similar benefits of civilization are nailed to the shore. Cozy cafes and taverns are located one after another on the embankment. Some have menus in Russian and the waiters know a little Russian. The price for lunch and dinner usually came out for two 20-25 euros, with a salad, second course and wine. Portions are gigantic in all cafes, so you can order one dish for two. Because of this, they everywhere practice taking food with them. They give food containers and bags. You need to choose a cafe according to the principle where the Greeks themselves and in general a lot of people sit, where they feed deliciously and the prices are democratic.
As for the shops in Loutraki, you need to be prepared for the fact that they simply do not work for half of the day. The Greeks are terribly lazy in this regard, they simply do not want to work, so they have an eternal siesta for half a day. Stores close for a break at 2pm and open at 6pm. In a word - loafers. On Sundays, almost all shops are closed.
Not far from Bakos there is a wonderful souvenir shop, the owners are Russians, the director's name is Fedor. The store is located near the fountains on the main street. There we were given comprehensive information, where something is located, where you can go to have fun, eat, etc. In addition to this, we were given big discounts on souvenirs. So we recommend that you contact there if you are interested in inexpensive souvenirs and information on what to do in Loutraki.
