Loku'

We stayed at the Loku for 3 nights in the New Year period , we were 3 families of friends and so we’ve booked all 3 houses . It was a very convenient arrangement for us because we didn’t have to share the yard or the cooking/ eating outside area with other people. Best things about Loku: -proximity to Bucharest, clean air and a generous yard for staying outside, very clean inside the house with all modern utilities (somewhere between a classic hotel room and an aparthotel ): we had microwave, coffee machine, toaster, heating water machine, fridge, basic dishes, toiletries, hairdryer, slippers . Easy check in and out and we found some very nice welcoming gifts :- water, bear , chocolate and local salt. The pictures from the presentation show exactly like in reality.

We didn’t like very much the eating and cooking facilities, but maybe in the future something will change for better. Inside the houses we had all the utilities, but we could not cook anything , only use the microwave for heating small things. There was no stove in the house, so in order to prepare a decent meal , we had to get all the dishes, meat, vegetables , etc and go to the outdoor eating area where we had only a small electric stove and not many options for cooking. At the end of the meal , we had to take everything back in the house where we had hot water ( outside it was only very cold water) to clean the dishes and the rest of the food to the fridge to store it … a little bit uncomfortable. In conclusion, you have to come here with your precooked meals and do the daily routine between house and BBQ area, or visit a lot the restaurants from Slănic Prahova area.

This is our second visit. Houses still look good, WiFi works fine. Nice, large yard and BBQ facilities. Easy communication with the hosts. Thumbs up for the good quality toiletries (many expensive hotels skimp on these)

The yard needs maintenance - the paths and areas around the cottages are overgrown with weeds. It also needs more lighting at night (either one of the light strings wasn't working or we couldn't find the switch). The children's toys in the play cottage either need to be replaced or removed. Also, there are still no insects nets for the small window upstairs (that would be super useful, esp at night) or the doors. All in all a good pick, but needs a bit more work

Semi-remote location. Peace and quiet. Very nice interior/exterior design and layout of the house. Cozy.

The houses are very beautiful, tastefull arranged, clean and have a very good attention to all the details. You have a clean bathroom, neatly arranged towels, a bottle of water in the fridge, some beverages, everything is spotless clean, and a nice wooden smell. Warm inside, all prepaired for your arrival. The resort has a beautiful mountain view, a large courtyard with a rustic setup, and a self check-in so you can adjust your arrival hours to suit your schedule. Two super happy dogs will guard you all the way if you like dogs and pet them 😊. Excellent accommodation, beautiful setup, and good value for money. Perfect if you don't want to be strapped in a hotel room and you want to enjoy more space and a cabin confort. The best choice for anybody who wants a mountainside weekend retreat

One small disappointment was the microwave oven. I know that it's fast and easy, but it's also an unhealthy device, and in 2023, we have suitable options such as small electric ovens that dont radiate your food.
