We were at the hotel in 2022, looking for an inexpensive package. It takes about 2 hours to drive from the airport, taking into account the fact that other vacationers were being transported. The hotel has two buildings, as far as I understand. The first building is better (where the reception is).
The second building is the old building. It is located next to the first building, it takes about 5 minutes to walk. It feels like he's been abandoned. My mother and I were moved into the old building, it was a horror. Since it's Mom's first time. She was a little bit expecting a different picture, she got nervous. It made me feel bad. I was shocked myself. In principle, there was nothing so critical. Except that the plumbing was in poor condition, it needed repairs, and the furniture was also old, as if the building hadn't been renovated in many years.
We asked for another number, but they didn't give it to us, saying that there were no places, come over tomorrow morning. As a matter of fact, they did. We put a thank you in our passport in the morning and went to the reception, they immediately gave us a man and he led us to the rooms. So that you understand, we were settled in the building where the reception is (the first one is considered to be the main building, it is newer). We started looking at several rooms and settled on one room with a view of the sea, it was a wonderful view. The room also needed renovation, but not as much as in the old building. There was an elevator in the new building, I don't remember in the old building, I don't think there was. The room was like everywhere else, air conditioning (working).
There was one pool near the building in the center (carefully deep) and there was a children's pool nearby, it's small. The second pool was located where the slide area was (there were two slides).
The food was 50-50 in my opinion. You won't stay hungry. There was little variety in fruits. And basically the same thing, we sometimes went to eat in cafes because we were tired of this food and wanted something new. By the way, there are a lot of cafes.
We crossed the road, and there was a wide street on the right, flanked by various shops. We walked a little straight and turned left, going into some street, we came across an inexpensive cafe. Very nice people and owners work there. They are hospitable. Inexpensive and the service is good.
The sea is very close, I would even say it's not the first line, it feels like it's on the territory of the hotel.
The sea was gorgeous, with a shallow sand entrance. It was fenced off and therefore there were no strong waves, you can safely swim. There was also a place where you could take a shower and rinse your feet, and there was a small queue. The animation is top-notch, the guys are just smart, and I think this is one of the advantages of this hotel, and of course the sea. The attitude in the bar is not very good ((, they pour our Russians into plastic cups (as they do almost everywhere else).I understand that many people break dishes there, but that's still no reason to give plastic cups.
There is a bus stop near the hotel. You can drive to the mall and buy some clothes. There's a zara with very good prices. Be sure to bring a hat and sunglasses.
Because you can get sunstroke, like I did ((. I thought I'd go without a cap, it wouldn't be a big deal, but alas, I hurt myself. By the way, who needs it? It's better to take a dollar and not change it, as we initially did in banks. It is better to take dollars, go to any supermarket, choose some product and give dollars. You will be given change in lira at the checkout. This will be a profitable exchange rate than you will exchange at a bank or ATM. So in general, the rest went well. It would be good if the information reached the supervisor, to make more fruits and make a more varied meal. The kitchen was where all the food was, and it was very small and uncomfortable. But the place is full. The hotel was clean.

The hotel sucks completely, it doesn't even pull 3. Of the advantages, only a closed beach area, you can relax with children. The rooms are not cleaned (and all the service is for 2, apparently the end of the season), there is a poor choice in the dining room, sour beer, diluted gin and vodka in the bar. We chose a hotel at a minimum (there were cases in Turkey), and so in the sense of rest, I would not recommend this place, so as not to leave negative impressions about Turkey).
The hotel itself is very old, although it is clear that it is being looked after, the beach is normal, especially with vacationers with children (you can teach swimming, the buoys are also quite shallow, but the bottom is rocky, there is fishing (carry fishing rods, spinning) you can catch a sargan) this is what I'm saving myself))
We watched and listened to Euronews on TV ..
In principle, it will do for us, the main thing is the sun and the sea and the world!

We visited in October 2021.
Well, that's tough...
Absolutely everything is terrible here! I do not know who writes good reviews, who are these people?!
Room: everything is old! There's mold all over the tub. Bed... We didn't have it! We slept on two mattresses! They were lying on top of each other!
Restaurant: That's a big word! The dining room! And that's too much! The snack bar! There is no normal food, the chicken was given 1 piece per hand. The fruits are half-ripe.. For breakfast, no omelette, no scrambled eggs, no pancakes, no fritters! Why is it not clear, this is the most basic thing!
Alcohol.. It can also be said that there is no such thing. The quality is not very good, to put it mildly.
Animation: every day there is a children's disco with the same songs. I thought I was going to lose my mind.
The only thing that stopped us from losing heart was that there were a lot of shops and a market nearby, which we walked through! We bought strawberries and ice cream and what we wanted in Migros. He's there, too.
Maybe something has changed there during this time, although I doubt it very much!

I just left the hotel. I'm writing a review based on emotions. I was robbed. I lost my down jacket and my new snood scarf.
There was an hour and a half left before departure. I went to my room to pick up my things, but there was no down jacket and scarf on the hanger.
I started asking the staff and the reception, and they told me that they would bring my things.
They brought someone else's dirty scarf to the summer, not my luxurious winter scarf. The down jacket was not found.
The staff was assembled. I was told that no one had taken my down jacket, although it was clear from the conversation that they knew who had taken it.
They offered to call the police. But they said they wouldn't look into it.
As a result, I had to buy myself another jacket because it's cold in Moscow.
The hotel is in need of renovation.
It is very dirty in the lobby and corridors, near the rooms.
The food is meager. The tortillas are rancid.
❎Nice beach and clear sea. Everything.
The impression is negative. The sediment is unpleasant. The reception didn't even express any regrets about the situation.
Sorry.
This hotel disappointed me.

Food is always served fresh and delicious drinks, everything is there, the service is at a height, the beach is clean, there is always music and outdoor games, the territory is clean, tidy, there are two pools, one 160 deep, the other 50 deep with good slides, the sea is clean! The rooms are always clean and tidy, but there is one minus, that you can't sleep normally with the window open because there is constant noise and din on the street and no way to close, since you close the window it's stuffy, the room has a TV, refrigerator, safe for an additional fee, the staff is very polite, there is a Wi-Fi nearby at the reception If you need to have a connection and it's free, then buy a local SIM card!

I had a rest on August 16-25 with 2 children.
It takes 1.5-2 hours to drive from the airport. There are grocery stores nearby, and there is a shopping center nearby by bus.
Rooms: We asked for rooms with a sea view - we took into account the wishes for the rooms. The room is tired, but everything is functioning. Kondey is really barely alive, but he works well. The view is gorgeous on the sea. Music and animation screams until 24, silence at exactly 24.
The staff almost all understands Russian somehow, there were no problems with communication. Everyone is very positive, very loyal.
According to reviews, the rooms in the other buildings are much worse, there is a view of the windows of another building. But here we were lucky)))
The sea is nearby, clean, warm. The approach is gorgeous - sand, the approach is smooth.
Sun beds should be occupied at 5 a.m., we were not ready for such feats, we did not need them, we rested on the sand.
The animation is not bad either, it is clear that they are trying. Morning exercises are a separate art form.
Nutrition: there is no children's table, but my grandfather always found something to eat (not the healthiest food, but okay). The younger one always had something to eat, too.
There were always vegetables, fruits: apples, orange, watermelon, delicious cooked on the grill in the yard. We need to look for free tables, but we went later and OK.
The sunsets there are simply unreal.
In general, if we are given the same numbers, I am ready to come back again.
There were minor disadvantages, of course, but we didn't find fault)))

Good staff who are always polite. The food is super, very fresh and delicious. The pools and the sea are constantly clean, there is also a shower with cold water on the territory of the sea and by the pools. The buildings are clean and beautiful. But 1 minus, the rooms are old, shabby. The bathrooms in 2 of our rooms had blurred and slightly broken mirrors, plus one had a constant unpleasant smell of sewage. Also, once the water was turned off, which made it necessary to go dirty for breakfast after the sea. Otherwise, the hotel is wonderful! A good choice for a family vacation.

I don't recommend it. The sea is gorgeous, 2 stars for it, the food was delicious, but often sooo salty, the service and service are weak, although the guys conducted entertainment programs diligently and with a twinkle, about the bars during our stay worked only by the pool from 10 to 22 there was no choice, beer or alcohol bodied in a cocktail or vodka type

I liked the hotel by many criteria. Territory, animation, location, beach, service! It left a pleasant impression!The food was varied, there was little meat, but there was always chicken or fish, cooked in different ways. Watermelon, apples, oranges - in any quantity. There were often "Turkish" dishes. That is, something unfamiliar that is interesting to try.
The only thing that deserves a small minus is the "tired" rooms: faded carpet, a huge non-plasma TV. But there is air conditioning, it will do to spend the night!

We rested at the hotel from October 4 to October 13, the rest was a great success! The animators are just super, they entertain from morning to night (I would like to express special gratitude to Safa and Nastenka, they are clever!)the staff is all very friendly, many speak Russian, the entrance to the sea and the beach are amazing, the food is very tasty, they have never been hungry, of course the room is old, but we did not sit in it, we only came to spend the night, but cleaning and changing of linen and towels is a separate topic, for the whole vacation never we did not clean and did not change the linen, we approached the reception twice about this, but nothing has changed, unfortunately, this is the only minus of this hotel, and everything is fine, we hope to return there more than once!

We rested on 08/19/2023. I liked everything, the sea with small children is the best, the food is varied, the territory is well maintained, they always wipe and wash. Tired rooms, I think they will be put in order over time, and so it will go to change clothes and spend the night. They do not give towels to the beach, there is a shop at the hotel where you can buy everything and towels, lifebuoys, sand sets at the same prices (so as not to take them with you). There is a hammam, a sauna, you can come and use everything for free (their services are paid). There is a large market across the street, where you can buy everything, as well as excursions are much cheaper than at hotels. We were with the children, they swam at sea, they didn't pick up anything in the pool. I recommend the hotel.

Positive:
Beautiful bay

The first line.
Cons:
Beach
On the beach there are 30 umbrellas with 2 sun beds for 440 rooms. Places are scored from 05-00
Mattresses on the beach are torn.
There are no beach towels. Even for money
Meal
The wealth of choice does not shine.
Periodic problems with free tables. Often there are no plates. There is no fork either, I have to run after the cleaners to bring forks.
Number
The rooms are small.
"Good" cleaning only if you leave $ 2 on the bed.
There's black mold everywhere in the bathroom.
All metal parts are rusty.
The filters in the air conditioner have never been cleaned.
There is no water in the refrigerator. The water in the bars is only for bottling.
The TV is 19 inches.
Hotel
The elevators are working with the last of their strength.
Turkish night: this is 60 tables by the pool for 440 rooms in the hotel. And 200 seats in the amphitheater for 1,500 guests.
The Internet is not working well. The speed is small. Constant connection breaks. Does not allow you to download anything. Even for money.

If there was an opportunity, I would put 10 points. We have been vacationing with our family at the Sunlife Hotel since June 3, 2023. The hotel, of course, is not the first freshness, but the beach, animation, service - 100% excellent service. We really liked it, we didn't want to leave, I got on the plane with tears. The hotel has its own sandy beach, a bay with breakwaters made of stones, no storm at sea will prevent excellent swimming. The entrance to the sea is gorgeous, not deep, almost the entire bay can be walked along the bottom, great for relaxing with children. Entertaining interesting programs from morning to evening for both children and adults, there is a children's club where you can leave children under supervision. I especially liked the Turkish night, which takes place on the hotel stage every Monday. Refreshing drinks, food are very tasty and varied. Thank you for a great vacation.

The hotel is not bad, the location is excellent, everything is within walking distance, the food is good, but the end of September: there are a lot of people, there were not enough sunbeds, they came to the beach at 7 am and could not always take a place, also the pools are always busy, the queue to the dining room is huge, built in as much as 15 minutes before the start of the meal. We were in Turkey for the first time, but such was the impression about the hotel that we are vacationing in Russia.

I stayed at this hotel in August of the 22nd year. In general, not bad, within the framework of the pricing policy of that time. The room stock is certainly a bit old, but on the whole it is comfortable. Closer to lunch by the pool, it is unlikely that you will find a free place, but there is always a chance for that on the hotel's own beach!) a separate plus is the buffet. The choice is huge, the dishes are practically not repeated day by day. Everything is delicious and satisfying.

Vacationed with my husband in this hotel from 7.10 to 15.10.2023. We went to Turkey for the first time. They settled into the room quickly, helped to carry the suitcase.
We lived in the 3rd building with a partial sea view (all wishes were taken into account when checking in). The rooms are old, there is ingrained dirt, but everything works fine.
Cleaning: we left a tip of $ 1 three times and cleaned our place normally, towels and bed linen were also changed, hygiene products were also replenished constantly...One day only we did not clean up, but only threw out the garbage, the rest of the days cleaning every day.
Nutrition: not super diverse, but they ate their fill. We especially liked the desserts, French fries and tortillas that the guy cooks in the snack bar. Drinks are also all good, cocktails are even made for free. But in the dining room there were not enough plates, soup dishes and tables available, we had to wait for them.
Beach: clean sand, smooth entry into the sea, the water is clear, there are no big waves. Sun beds and umbrellas are free throughout the hotel, but you need to take them at 6 am.
Animation: we really liked it!!! The guys are trying very hard!!! We tried to go to all the events!!! Cute exercises and water aerobics on the beach with Safa, zumba with Nastya, darts with Cody. Participated in the Bing Boom Lucky Show, took only 2 tickets and both won good prizes. There was a foam party, a Turkish night with fireworks, Miss Hotel. There is also a children's evening show every day. We especially remember the Sunlife dance!
Additionally: there is a wonderful photographer at the hotel, he takes pictures very well from the first time! The hotel also has a sauna, hammam, massage. For an additional fee, you can buy berries (strawberries, blackberries, figs, pomegranates), Thai ice cream and cocktails. There is a stall with everything you need for a tourist (souvenirs, bags, caps, sunscreen, towels, etc.).
In general, the hotel is good, we advise you to relax. But there are a lot of people, you need to increase the number of sun beds and umbrellas on the beach, the number of tables and dishes in the dining room!!!
Travel Agency: we drove through Fun&Sun. We quickly found our transfer, drove for 2 hours, drove straight to the hotel. The next day there was a meeting with the guide, he explained everything to us, offered excursions, but very expensive, cheaper to take on the market.They are taken back from the hotel 5 hours before departure, arrived on time, everything was in time. Corendon Airline is Turkish, they don't give you water and food, only on the menu, it's not cheap, but you can take everything with you.

Animation is fire! I am always far from these events, but this is the only time in 12 days I went to Miss / Mr. hotel and disco 2 or 3 times, there were funny contests (yes, they are of the same type, as in many other places), but the animation director lives so much on this that of course his passion He can't help but bribe! Yes, of course, the place (bay) does not seem to many to be a flowing sea, but guys! It's still a sea with a current and water circulation! The food is like Turkey, monotonous, but you won't be hungry! My vegetables (were in May with a friend) The sea was still not warm enough and the weather was not hot enough, so the hotel was 55+ people were relaxing for their own pleasure! I really enjoyed watching them! We danced until the morning, drank, ate and rested, we were upset about leaving with everyone with whom we managed to exchange a few words! I think this is the best assessment of the work of the hotel and the staff in general. Perhaps no more words are needed. I will say that our rooms were well cleaned, yes, the rooms were not the first freshness, yes, the air conditioner was faulty, but it was fixed immediately. There was a feeling that a large team, everyone was friendly, it even seemed that the kids were MEGA well-mannered, no one squeaked or screamed! We played backgammon (the always smiling staff gave them to us at the bar), drank wine, ate fruit, breathed the sea air and even swam several times! If all your cockroaches are built in straight rows and painted according to the hierarchy, then I recommend the hotel, just as a change of scenery, as a vacation without a mindset for anything ...)))

the hotel is average. the animation is at the highest level, everything is fun and active. but if you do not like loud music that will accompany you EVERYWHERE from 12 a.m. to 1 a.m., then the best choice for you is the third building, but there, as they already wrote, the rooms are the oldest. we lived in the second building. The air conditioners in the rooms work well, it definitely won't be hot. there is no hot water periodically. also, we didn't have a watering can in the shower in our room, only on top, which was not removable. a separate note to the hotel, serious. this is if you, dear readers, have a more or less adult daughter (of teenage age), or you are a young pretty girl - then you will not rest. the bartenders are very arrogant, they invite you to sit on the beach, have a drink with them, it is impossible to walk 20 meters calmly. the sea is clean, but there are some fish swimming that bite quite painfully. and there are also interesting personalities who feed these fish, and therefore there are more and more of them.

Good day to all! We are staying at this hotel for the third time! To be honest, we were thinking of changing something. And the agent offered a choice of 10 hotels in this price category. But... The first coastal one was across the street, there was one swimming pool and there was no territory. In this hotel, you can not go anywhere. The beach is on site, we swam even at night. The territory is large, there is everything for recreation. Three pools. The 3rd building has few people and there is no queue for beer)))). And a store with everything you need on site right there. Cherries and strawberries can also be bought on site. And for those who care about wi-fi, then for guests who come for the third time, it is free throughout the territory. Of course, there are disadvantages, but for us there are more advantages! The child is used to it, and so are we. Everything became familiar here. Maybe we are conservatives, or maybe Sunlife sectarians (as they wrote in the VK group, jokingly of course))). I almost forgot about cleaning the room, I brought a dustpan (set) and did the cleaning when it was convenient for me. Well, I don't like it when people come into the room and see my life)))). The animation is super! We are glad that we are welcome here)))) Thank you all for the rest!

The territory is small, very beautiful, lots of palm trees.We are very pleased with the animator Serdar,cheerful,positive,active, good sense of humor,did not let you get bored, always on the move.Now about the negative, this is not the sea, but a paddling pool, some kind, the bay is fenced with stones, there is nowhere to swim, the whole bottom is in cobblestones, you will break all your legs.And about the room, I lived in building 3, the room was shabby, old, neglected, not cleaned, full of dust, the elevator was constantly breaking down.If it doesn't matter to you, you can rest.

Good time. We were from August 2 to August 12. The service, the sea and the hotel area near the beach are very good! The room stock is fu-fu, I had to change it for an additional fee, several times. The Turkish tradition of instilling in the most sophisticated room and, after resisting, offering an alternative, has not gone away. The outdoor unit of the lyceum is making a lot of noise (so prayers at 5.00 from the minirate are blocked). The indoor unit is bad but copes with the heat of 30 degrees. Perhaps the latter is the only disadvantage for a vacation with a family of 4 people.

We were in Sunlight with my wife at the end of October. The hotel is for Russians, there are no foreigners. Price/quality - corresponds.
All the sunbeds on the beach are occupied with towels around the clock, but it didn't bother us, because we left immediately after breakfast
for Cleopatra Beach in Alanya and swam there until the evening. There are three buildings in the hotel, we were settled in the third ("Plaza" - round).
The air conditioner in the room was buzzing wildly, so we didn't use it. I asked at the reception to fix it = they said OK and scored,
I also scored. The balcony door did not close until the end, so the wild noise from the highway had to be tolerated. TV in the room
the old kinescope, only the channel switch button worked on the remote, it was not particularly frustrating since there were
only 5 channels: 3 in Turkish, TNT and some of our Orthodox. TNT showed for three days, then stopped. In the shower, the taps
are mixed up - blue hot controlled, red cold. The hot tap had to be pressed with effort to close the water.
The water was not always hot. On the night before departure, we were moved for some reason to the first building, and not by persuasion,
but simply by cutting off the light in the room. In a word, a hotel for Russians)) The staff is friendly, the food is monotonous, Turkish.
In the dining room, there were often not enough plates. The photo of the hotel does not correspond, since there is now only room for one row of sunbeds on the shore.

Everything is fine! I had a very good rest. The beach is gorgeous, the animation was also good, the food was also well organized, and there was a good selection of dishes. The only thing was that the rooms were not cleaned very well, but it did not really bother me, since I always had a clean room, and the smell of sewage in the room was periodically there.

I am currently in this hotel on 13.10.2023, if you do not want to find out how much you can spoil your vacation on the Mediterranean Sea, do not book this hotel. I have been traveling for many years, sometimes I stayed in very old budget mini-hotels in Greece and Cyprus, and there are many places in Turkey where I have been, but this hotel is the worst of the worst. For a long time I could not understand what the main problem of this hotel is, it is not so old, its own good beach, a small selection of food, but it is really delicious. So why is it so unbearable to be here??? And it seems the answer has been found - the contingent, only Russians, mostly pensioners, rest here, and this negates all the small advantages of this hotel. They are the ones who occupy deck chairs at 6 am, tables for breakfast, lunch and dinner, hopeless arrogance and rudeness create their own unique Vibe here. And the hotel has completely reoriented itself for this contingent, so there is no cleaning here, and the bartenders pour some kind of body instead of cocktails, there are almost no trash bins on the hotel and the beach. You will never find wine in a glass glass for dinner here, tiny plastic transparent cups are the maximum. This hotel can be safely renamed into the Anapa boarding house, its guests have been here for a long time and they write positive reviews, do not believe them.
I supplement my review after 3 days on 10/16/2023 - at night the child started vomiting violently every 2 hours, in the morning the temperature rose 38.5 and in an ambulance with severe dehydration we left for the Alanya hospital. Do not choose this hotel for your vacation. For 13 years of annual trips with children for the first time got into such a nightmare. Moreover, from conversations with the staff, I understood that all employees are aware of these problems and just laugh in their faces.

I am writing an objective review for 15 years of travel and stops in different hotels (including many Turkish ones of different categories)
1. We arrived very tired with children, flights were delayed, suitcases were delayed
They dropped us off from the transfer with young children not at the hotel, but along the road for some reason, it seems like it's difficult to get there?
Well, okay, let's go. We do not like to quarrel and spoil our rest
2. We arrived at 22.00, the restaurant is closed, we were not given dinner, even lunchboxes, which are usually given to the airport. Okay
3. Went up to the room. I feel a very stinky cleaning agent, then I realize that the floors are all sticky, right in the tool. Already all upset, tired, we flew all day, I go to the reception to swear. It's not "okay" anymore
4. Give another number. OK. The same old, there is nowhere to put things, for some reason there are few bedside tables, a wardrobe with 4 hangers for 5 people. OK. We go to bed, but it doesn't work out. The number of windows overlooks the disco, which is until one o'clock in the morning. The air conditioner stinks of dampness and makes noise. The next day we move to a room with a view of the road - it's quieter there. There is no refrigerator. Everything is old
5. Slept. Let's go have breakfast. There is no fruit for breakfast. There wasn't even any scrambled eggs that day. Of the drinks, only black tea and instant coffee.
The plates are really dirty.
For a vacation of 8 nights, they caught diarrhea 2 times, and not only us
The food is OK - we are not picky at all, but we eat from plastic plates ... there were constantly not enough dishes (many plates with chips, they need to be disposed of - it can be dangerous)
6. The rooms are not cleaned (they throw out garbage, they can sweep up sand, fold blankets), the bathroom was not cleaned, towels should be demanded straight, which is unpleasant. I asked 4 times to change our towels, it's in one day
7. Animation - daytime - a room of 10 squares. We went in - a girl and a guy are sitting and chatting, the children are watching Masha and the Bear. Evening - the same thing every day. Many mothers complained about the animator that she talks badly to children. Makes fun of children on stage. And reproaches adults that they do not want to make a train every day. Is this normal at all?
8. Everyone complained about the dirt. The most disgusting thing is that someone pooped at the elevator (hopefully cats) and it wasn't cleaned for 3 days. Although I myself approached and told the manager. And others said. Maybe they haven't cleaned it up yet - we've already left
9. There are no water bottles. You should always run to the coolers with cups
All drinks in plastic and tea and coffee
10. Do not give towels at sea.
Broken sun beds are not thrown out for disposal . Offer to use
11. The hamam at 18 pm is already cold, the water is icy. It is not clear why, because people go to warm up and go to water procedures in the evening after the sea
Now about the pros
- beach, sea, entry without stones (but the water in the "lagoon" stagnates)
- the first line is still what is convenient
- the sunsets are very beautiful
-volleyball and daytime and evening adult animation
This is my first review in many years of traveling. We were in different hotels , both modest and very cool . But even in the most modest ones where we were, there was no such unsanitary conditions
In general, read negative reviews, not just positive ones like me. For the same amount , we could go to another hotel . That's why I wrote a review. But since we were determined to rest, we rested
We played on the beach, swam in the sea, walked
Conclusion: repair the hotel, remove torn things, add cleaning staff, hire a person who controls cleanliness, expand the program of children's animation and remove plastic dishes and the hotel will sparkle with new colors.

We doubted it because of the reviews we read, but decided to go with my daughter of 7 years. I liked the service,
the animators entertained from 10 to late at night (children's, adult programs), food, territory, access to the sea, swimming pools. There were people here who were not the first time, but alone as many as 7 times in this hotel.
Of the minutes, as others wrote in the reviews, the rooms that it's time to update the repair, but to sleep in the room is quite normal. Furniture, air conditioning in good condition.

Overall, the hotel is good, but the plumbing is all old! The staff is super , the cleaning is not very good , there is not enough linen for the rooms! The food is good, you will not stay hungry. From fruits, oranges and apples, who do not have enough, can be bought at the hotel. Alcohol is paid after 23 hours. The coastline is gorgeous, the animators and the hosts are super!

✅I will also leave a review about our vacation from 17.09.23-01.10.23🏝
we rested as a family, with a 4-year-old child , the ticket cost us 197 tons for three (14 n / 15 d) with departure from Moscow, the airline Red Wings (Zhukovsky airport) in general, we liked everything and were satisfied with the rest.I will try to tell you in detail about each place.
So the hotel itself , its exterior and interior:
The first thing I thought about when I went to the floor of the rooms was that I would take vanish, bleach, as well as a washing vacuum cleaner and generate everything))))
Well, okay, jokes are jokes, and the room (1326) with a view of the sea, by the way, was given without extra charges and other benefits, in it I did as I needed, I washed it for my family, after all, I live for two weeks, (I always take rags, powder), I took it to the toilet pills for the tank,a freshener on the rim, for cleaning pipes, powder fell asleep in the sink and bath, in general, we had everything with this ze best, it smelled.The room is clean, small of course, but everything was fine with us, the linen was all clean, they changed pillowcases and blankets when we needed them, the towels were snow-white, the girls were good at cleaning, well, they don't know how to wash the floors, well, at least they were already wiped normally.We came to sleep in it and change clothes, so it didn't bother us.
In general, if they thoroughly washed the hotel once a week, and then supported it, there would be no such impressions, but apparently it is not so important to the management.
Canteen.
I'll start with the appliances and dishes, we always had enough, we didn 't stand in queues, although we didn 't go to the opening to eat, I have my own approach about cleanliness, I deenfect them myself anywhere, the dishes are broken off, it's time to replace them with a new one, but somehow we always had to take a clean and no chips.
There were enough tables, tablecloths were changed, rarely when stains and crumbs, the dishes were cleaned by the guys in a timely manner.
Power and supply .
we had no problems with food , as we were quite satisfied with the assortment , namely:
for breakfast , they always baked and fried pancakes or bread in an omelet , scrambled eggs .
sausage, cheese slices, yogurt, jams, breakfast cereals (cereals and balls) with milk are served.boiled eggs,mini-sausages,vegetables, herbs,olives and olives,sandwich rolls, bread.
Here is the bread in one form, which surprised me, the baguette is white, so they cut it with such pieces, it would be better to give the right to cut yourself, as in many hotels.
for lunch and snack bar :
sooooo pleased with the respect that there were these ala soups of the day and chicken vermeshel with meat, mashed soup with broccoli, mashed soup looks like kharcho, mushroom soup well, it's hard to call them mashed soup, of course, but delicious and edible.(By the way, they are at 01.00 at night + fresh vegetables and herbs)For the hot in the assortment there were on different days fish such as mackerel or herring, dorado, chicken drumstick, turkey goulash and chicken (there was always), steak
turkeys in tomato sauce ,beef on a bone in sauce,onion rings, meatballs of some kind (kind of spicy), always some vegetables and stuffed,stewed,rice,bulgur,pasta,fries,mashed potatoes,stewed potatoes with vegetables,
all kinds of mash- salads (I haven't tried it), but there were fresh vegetables in the form of sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, sometimes cherry, chopped cabbage and red cabbage, mixed salads, different greens: rucolla, dill, parsley, iceberg lettuce.
there were always sauces in bottles for them, plus olives, olives, pickles, hot chili pepper (what a horror)
At the dining room there is a bar with beer, wine (dry) and something for gin and vodka (not taken), sprite, cola, fanta, water, orange and cherry drinks, tea (teapot and titanium with boiling water) and coffee (apparatus), instant coffee is poured and dry there. milk, cappuccino is not bad.
there was always something to eat in the snack bar if you didn't want to jostle in the dining room, goulash , fries, there was also a mini shawarma with lamb, pasta and vegetables are always there, mixed salads and fresh vegetables, plus tortillas from grandma.
non-alcoholic drinks and ayran (sooo delicious), it is not portioned, but from a common vessel with a tap.
we often had lunch there, quite, until from 12.30- 17.00 hours it is open with this assortment, after 17.00 there are cookies.
I will not describe dinner, almost the same as lunch, just plus something else is fried on the street, dorado or chicken fillet, ham.
from fruits for lunch and dinner there are always apples, oranges and watermelon and sweet pastries , delicious .
In the bar, the assortment, as in the dining room, is open from 11.00-23.00
beer is made stronger with vodka if you ask, so it's the usual light, pleasant, cold.
the wine is white and dry red, also the norm who loves , I made champagne, slightly adding sprite , a very tasty and light drink turned out.
mahito was made both alco and without, with mint and orange, with colored grenadines, ice.
At the disco bar after 23.00 paid
Animation funny, nimble guys, everything is great and noisy
in the morning, charging in the sea with Safa (funny guy), always gathered a crowd of people who wanted to work out, bocce and volleyball on the beach.
The kids' club was led by Lisa, a young girl, they painted there, decorated handbags, T-shirts and pencil cases (price $ 10), then at the minidisko everyone received their masterpiece to the applause of the audience and if there is a desire to show a dance or a song to sing or a rhyme.
children show up what their names are, how old and what city, by the way, the audience is very liberating for kids when such hobbies, contests and games on stage.
so if your child does not know what city he is from and how old he is, teach)))
at 12.00 games by the pool
at 16.00 Darts and Zumba by the pool.
at 21.00 mini disco
at 22.00 adult animation , after the disco until 01.00 loud and fun , free .The 1st and 2nd corps will not fall asleep .
The hotel has a photographer who will make a photo session for free , and already your photo with easy processing costs $ 1, we were satisfied with the photo for memory , we paid 2000 rubles for 35 photos (20 were chosen , the rest as a gift)
The currency in Turkey is now the dollar , euro, rubles.
just see who is comfortable and profitable.
There are 2 water slides, both adults and children frolicked, the water in the pool is refreshing, there is always a looker.
well, the beach and the sea are perfect here, that's why we were coming here, it was one of the important points in choosing a hotel, a smooth entry into the sea of sand, a gentle warm clean (in our check-in) sea.
The chaise longue was occupied in the morning, to be honest, but we used it without downtime.
Well, on this rested note, I will probably finish my impression of being in this hotel, if you don't bother too much and don't look for cons, then everything is fine, our vacation was a great success without rotoviruses and coxsackie, heartburn and other ailments, so wash your hands more often, take food to the best of your appetite, don't forget that you are in another country where there are a lot of spices and seasonings, see what your kids eat, do not know the dish -do not experiment, wear hats from heat strokes, do not be in the sun during hot hours.
I wish you all a good rest and a positive mood

Overall, I liked the hotel, the service, the food, the animation. Its own bay, which is very good. There are few waves hitting the shore. There are several pools on site.
I didn't like the rooms themselves, they need repair. Room service is also lame, it is not cleaned often, bed linen is changed only upon request.

We rested from September 6 to September 15, 2023. I think we were given a good room. I didn't pay attention to the little things. I'll write about the food. The food is a little sparse. There are very few fruits at all watermelon oranges and apples and that's it. There is an abundance of cheeses, greens, meat is mostly just chicken, sometimes fish. Drinks of course are plentiful, sweet and with degrees in this regard, five plus. There is a shop at the hotels, the prices are the same as in the market, you can bargain with it a simple peasant will not offend. As for the animation, I would say it got a little bad. There was a boy before our arrival, everyone talked about him as a super animator. And now I'd say it's boring. With children, the sea is a super stop. It won't be scary for the children. A guard is sitting and watching everyone. In general, the hotel is only a three.

I'm definitely not going here anymore.
The first time I saw the races in the dining room (you can't call it a restaurant for sure), when a crowd of 50-60 people gathers first, and then everyone runs to occupy the tables. There is not enough food, the choice is definitely not big. Fruits in early September - only sour apples, small non-apple oranges and watermelons (and then only for lunch and dinner). And in the neighboring hotel, which is cheaper, there were melons and peaches and apricots. and strawberries. And three times a day. It was just a shame!
Animation is praised. I didn't see it. Animator girls flaunt and dance like wooden ones, the head of animation builds a star out of himself. at least once on stage he smiled! Animators leave on visiting artists. Here are the visitors - well done! I saw the best belly dance right here!
And most importantly. Upon arrival, we were dropped off by the road from the bus and the guide did not go with us, the bus left, and we did not immediately find the entrance to the hotel. This is not in any framework at all! It's good that there is a store nearby, they indicated that you need to go around their shop on the left and then there will be an entrance to the hotel.
The only plus of the hotel is the lagoon-sea. There is no wave. They were taken because of children who could not swim. We learned here.
The managers at the reception call to eliminate the shortcomings immediately, but the staff is not in a hurry to do the work.
And yes. Upon arrival, we were given the best room of 2 rooms with a balcony-terrace overlooking the sea. There were sun beds even for sunbathing. The number was received as a compliment. And the room stank of sewage in both rooms, the shower and toilet flowed, there were ants.
And they are cleaned very badly.

There is enough food for everyone, varied, try not to go to the opening, as this is the time for the particularly hungry;) there are not enough dishes for everyone in the season, it is difficult to provide three buildings in one canteen, food is constantly being reported, there are no dishes that would end and someone did not get it, do not be greedy! There's enough for everyone! The beach is gorgeous, due to rounded breakwaters, the water warms up during the day and is several degrees warmer than in the open sea, the entrance to the sea and the shore is sandy, there are many sun beds, but not enough in the season, the territory is small, but beautifully decorated and well-groomed, which is not to say about the third building, the flooring is not cleaned from The words "absolutely"!!! A vacuum cleaner!?! Haven't you heard, but what is it? There is no cleaning as such at all!!! Well, apart from taking out the garbage and leaving a bag for new garbage, towels of questionable cleanliness and freshness, change only on request, the rooms are dirty, the air conditioner and extractor hood have not been cleaned since installation, cranes and handrails in a neglected state, tulle and curtains with a touch of age-old dust and dirt, mirrors in splashes and streaks, walls and the ceilings are cracked and tired and stained, the staff is smiling, but they communicate in Russian when it is profitable for them. The animation is great, the guys are great 10 out of 10!!! Children and their parents are entertained from morning to late at night. If you choose this hotel, then the first building is preferable, or the second, it is neater and cleaner there.

Deserved 4 stars. We rested all July, in general, the hotel is not bad, the territory is large.
Of the cons:
The rooms are in need of repair, the rooms are poorly cleaned, the floors are washed and towels are changed, but the bed linen was changed only 2 times a month. The elevators are dirty, there is an eternal problem with forks in the dining room, there is always not enough. To take a fork, you either need to look for tables where there is an extra one, or approach the employee accordingly and ask for a fork. There are also problems with sun beds, to take a sunbed you need to get up at 5 am, otherwise fuck you with oil. There was no fruit. Just apples and oranges for dinner. Also watermelons. A small beach(
Of the advantages:
Despite the fact that the bay, the sea is clean, the food in the dining room is delicious, albeit monotonous. The staff is good, the animation is just gorgeous!!!!!! Throughout the day, from 10 a.m. to late at night, you will be entertained by a group of animators. A very interesting and fun adult program)) In short, the hotel will definitely not be boring, respect for the animators, they work the best! On Mondays there is a Turkish night at the hotel, on Fridays at 4 p.m. there is a foam party in the amphitheater. The snacks include tortillas, mini shawarma, salads, watermelons, cookies, and pizza. There are alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks in the bar, there is a mini club for children) In general, the 4-star hotel is not bad, we had a good rest;)

An ordinary hotel. Advantages: in the center of the village, shops, market, promenade, transport stops - everything is nearby. The sea is great. The lagoon is open, the water is changing. Beyond the buoys is the open sea, there are no boats, etc.

I am resting in a large two-room family room (the main building, where the reception is located). The room itself is decent, the mattresses are comfortable. The plumbing in the bathroom is old and broken. The shower and faucets spray water terribly. We still have a tap wrapped with a rag from leaking. The rooms are very poorly cleaned, you have to go swear at the reception to be cleaned. Cleaning is to wash the middle of the room with a mop. The bathroom was not washed at all, the towels left on the bathroom floor are not cleaned (I put them in the hallway outside the room door so that they would already be taken away). The Wi-Fi in the lobby is not working well. Positive aspects: very good animation for both children and adults; the territory is well-groomed, unlike the rooms, it is washed all day; the food is varied, delicious; the beach is clean, a gentle entrance for children, sand everywhere, the sea is transparent; there are always enough sun beds; wonderful slides. If it wasn't for room cleaning, it would be great.

Everything is 5+++. Guys, I spent 9 days in this hotel. Satisfying and fun. Animators work 6 days a week. Everything is at the highest level. Sea, sun, all inclusive meals (that is, from 7 o'clock to 24 at night). Alcohol from 11 to 23. Relax and enjoy. I highly recommend it.

I've been staying at the hotel since 08/01/2022. The hotel is located in the center of Avsalar village, which is very convenient. The bus stop is nearby, across the street there is an exchange, shops and cafes. A 10-minute drive away is a beautiful water park-Sea park, if you get to the final one, you get to Alanya.
The territory of the hotel is beautiful, there are 2 swimming pools, a snack bar, a vitamin bar and a spa complex, I advise you to visit.
Alcohol is normal, the food is familiar, no frills.
About the 3rd building, elevators, rooms and towels, everything is true, keep in mind.
The most important thing is the sea in 2 steps, and you can forgive everything for that.

I really liked how the sea is fenced on both sides by a pier, it turns out like a Blue lagoon. The animation is also great throughout the day. You won't stay hungry for sure, but it's better to take shakers and a fork with you, and also a beach towel on the sunbed. Room cleaning leaves much to be desired!

We stayed at this hotel from September 13 to 22, 2023.
The most terrible place!!!
There are RATS in this hotel!!!
We found a live rat in the bathroom, my heart almost stopped with fear.
The rat was caught.
We asked to be moved to another room, but they told us that they could only move us in the morning!
At three o'clock that night, they heard a noise in the bathroom again.We ran to the reception again .This time they caught a rat.In general, we somehow lived until the morning, in the morning we ran away to the sea without washing. After 12 we were moved to another room, they didn't even apologize to us!
The room turned out to be terrible, the shower did not work.
I fought with them for three days to have our shower repaired.Until I specifically covered them with a mat, we did not have a shower repaired!
There are no advantages in this hotel!
It's a terrible place.
I do not recommend it!!!
