We rested together, with a son of 14 years old, and a family of friends. We arrived earlier than planned, so we had to sit at the reception, but we checked in before twelve, we liked it. Breakfast was fed for 5 euros from the nose. They could have done it for free, but at that time they had not yet settled us in. At first I didn’t really like the room, the view from the window was not very good, close to some kind of mountain. But then they calmed down. Wi-Fi seems to be free, but it only worked in the room for the first 2 days, then I had to go to the reception, and it doesn’t always work there either. The password will be told. There are free computers with the Internet (3 pieces, in the evening they are almost always busy). The staff is restrained and friendly (most). Meals were taken twice a day, the assortment is quite large, it was not repeated every day. True, fish lovers were not lucky: there was always only one fish dish for dinner, and meat from 4 to 6. We dined with products bought in the nearest settlement, the town of Neos Marmaras. A ticket is 4 euros per person in both directions, they are transported in a small minibus, they give 2 hours. It’s worth going to the city at least for the food, if you don’t want to pay 20-25 euros for a lunch in a tavern (for two). There is also something to see in the town itself. You can swim on the beach. There was no animation at the hotel, only once there was a Greek evening. But on the other hand, there is a table tennis table, a basketball court, game consoles, a game room for kids up to 8-10 years old. There is nowhere to go in the evening, there are no hotels and settlements nearby. In general, it is quiet and calm. The contingent is mostly Serbs with small children (about 60%), Russians (about 30%). Now about the beach. The beach is just great! There are pine trees nearby, the smell is simply healing. The water is warm, clear, it is difficult to drown, since the water is salty. Without goggles or a mask, swimming is not so much fun: fish, stones, hedgehogs (don't worry, you have to try very hard to step on a hedgehog), sponges. . . I advise you to go from the sunbeds to the right, towards the rocks. It's prettier there than on the left, and there's no flow. And on the left, behind other rocks, it’s also beautiful, but there is a current pulling towards the rocks and into the sea. There are a lot of free places on the beach, even on weekends when locals come. Sunbeds - 5 euros for 2 sunbeds and an umbrella. We just bought umbrellas for 10 euros in the store and were placed nearby, we only took the sunbeds once. From excursions it is worth going to Thessaloniki. The city is beautiful, there are many sights. We didn’t go to Meteora, we decided that spending 11 hours on the road is too much. Judging by the photo, it’s very beautiful there. On the last day we went to the Der Pirat tavern, it is a hundred meters up the road to Nikiti. No wonder they advise, the prices are reasonable, the portions are large. The waitress speaks Russian. For meat, do not order a side dish, it is already included in the price. Oil is better to buy in Duty-free. It is very large, and the choice of oil there is huge, like everything else, and the prices are quite normal.
In general, if you like swimming and sunbathing, and the rest is not so important - this hotel will suit you. Good for families with small children.
