Hi all.
We have booked a fortnight staying at Stoupa, on the Greek mainland in July. Has anyone been here before? If so, what were their likes / dislikes etc? We have been to many islands, and also Parga. Like the traditional types of Greek resorts, (no McDonalds, 'English' pubs etc) We have a 6 year old - will be beaches be ok for her etc?
Also, is it big enough to eat somewhere different each night? Are there any ATMs there, or will we have to take enough Trav. Cheqs to see us through the 2 weeks?
Any views would be greaty appreciated
Hi, we went to Stoupa in 2003 for 1 week, from what I remember there was 1 cashpoint. There was a great pork restaurant by the beach which sold spit roast pork and chips, served on the paper table cloth (no plates!) but it was absolutely delicious, in fact I would have gone there every night given half a chance! Not sure if there was enough places to eat somewhere different for 14 nights, but there was a fair choice. No MacDonalds or English pubs when we were there. We didn't hire a car and so found Stoupa quite small and isolated, although there was a nearby village that we got a taxi to, can't remember the name, but there was even less there. The journey to and from the airport was very windy, I did remember feeling quite sick both ways. The beach was lovely and sandy, and the bay even had a family of ducks living there.
we went to stoupa last june and it was fantastic - quiet the first week but filling up the second. one of the great things about stoupa is that it can only hold so many people and you find yourself recogniseing people after only a few days. They also close the road that runs along the seafront after 6 oclock (or maybe so its pedestrianised - very safe. The water can be cool - there are freshwater underground springs there but don't let that put you off! We like the area so much I've just booked a holdiday in Chrani so any opinions would be appreciated! There is also a cashpoint. If you like trips, there are plenty on offer
Have a great time
