My partner and I enjoyed two weeks' holiday in Stoupa this year, arranged through the London travel agency Greek Options. It was the first time we had visited anywhere on the Greek mainland, though we have been to a number of the islands. We were very impressed. Stoupa boasts a good range of bars and tavernas, but has not (yet) been over-commercialised. There are also some good craft shops selling locally produced items far superior to the usual tourist tat. The sandy beaches (especially Kalogria at the northern end of the resort) are excellent for swimming, snorkelling and sunbathing. If you want a relaxing beach holiday with good food and wine and some beautiful mountain scenery just a short drive away, Stoupa is definitely the place to come. The only slight drawback, which anyone who has been to Greece before will know about,is Greek plumbing! Accommodation can also be rather basic, and I'd advise paying a little extra to be sure of at least a few home comforts during your stay.
