We were a little out of season (early November). I really liked it. The kitchen is wonderful. There were always free tables in the restaurant. The cuisine is quite diverse, very tasty. The room was not bad. There was a problem with the bathroom door - it was fixed the same day. Someone had difficulty getting extra blankets - but we just went to the reception a couple of times, reminded them and brought them right in the evening on a scooter. Cleaning, to be honest, was not the best and not every day. Good and unobtrusive animation. There are performances every day in the evenings. Naturally, it should be borne in mind that in November and the sea, the water in the pool is not the warmest. But we swam there and there. 2 pools, one just a bowl, the second with slides and plus a paddling pool. There are several chain grocery stores in the village, and a bazaar is a 15-minute walk away. There are transfers to Didim, free of charge, but only to the leather/fur store. And from there you go where you need to go.
A wonderful hotel with polite, good-natured staff, delicious varied food and the most beautiful sunsets 🤍
Cats and dogs that are absolutely non-aggressive and contact walk quietly around the territory. The rooms are cleaned every day (but not perfectly), towels and linen are changed daily; the territory also looks neat and clean. All the guys from the staff are smiling, ready to help with any question, but not everyone speaks English so that you can clearly convey this question the first time 😅
Hotel 8/10
Positive:
- the most beautiful sunsets
- delicious varied food
- excellent rooms with sea views
- daily cleaning (no complaints)
- well-maintained territory
- good alcohol in bars (not locally bottled)
- there are slides in the pool
- show program/live music/ discos
- constantly clean the coastline from algae
- close to Didim (the opportunity to visit the temple of Apollo on your own)
- near the market (15 minutes walk from the hotel)
Minuses:
- the minibar is changed once, the subsequent times are paid, for the first time we encountered this at the UAl hotel -
Turks, British, Czechs, Poles mostly rest in the hotel ... (about 10% of Russians there) for someone this is a plus, for us it was a minus since all the staff speaks only English…
At first, you're even OK, and you seem to understand everything, but when it comes to explaining the problem / situation, stupor, not understanding
- Anex guides will insist on an excursion to Ephesus, we went, Ephesus is beautiful, but the tour did not meet expectations. We were given an hour and a half of time for shopping, and 20 minutes for sightseeing (((( also in summer there are simply huge crowds of people in Ephesus, it is better to visit such places during the non-tourist season
- some photos on the hotel's website indicated an equipped pier with sun beds, there were false expectations that this was the case. In fact, there is a pier, but it is not equipped, there is a rusty ladder into the water, you can jump, but it is not completely safe
