A good economy class hotel. The rooms are very spacious and have everything you need. The breakfasts are delicious and hearty. Of course, there are some shortcomings at the hotel, but when you remember the stability of the tour, you can close your eyes to everything. The biggest disadvantage is that for 13 nights the room was never cleaned and towels and linen were not changed, but they took a broom and swept themselves...The most hardworking employee of this hotel is a Tajik, he plows there from morning until dark. But a bunch of staff at the bar just picks their noses all day, why there are so many of them is unclear.
We were in Abkhazia for the first time
I really liked the cottage - everything is new, clean, spacious (about 20 squares and a ceiling of 3 meters), upholstered in wood, a panoramic window (but only the door opened, there was not enough window for ventilation), TV, air conditioning, wardrobe, table, 2 bedside tables, a double bed and a folding sofa for a child, a shower room, sink, toilet, electric towel rail, hair dryer. We did not have enough hangers in the closet (there were 3 pieces) of a kettle and cups: we bought souvenir cups, went to the bar for boiling water.
On the veranda there is a table and 2 wicker chairs (on which all swimsuits and towels were dried, because an outdoor dryer is not provided).
Beautiful mountain view from the cottage. In the morning you go out on the veranda and contemplate the beauty!
The sea is 10 minutes away slowly, but the road is dusty, they drive briskly and there are no sidewalks. But there are a lot of shops where they sell almost everything, and also cafes, fruit vendors. The local fresh figs were there, there were a lot of them everywhere, they were in season) . There are many suggestions for excursions on the way to the sea
There are 2 pharmacies in the village. It takes about 20 minutes to walk from the hotel to them.
There's not much to see in the village itself, but that's not what we were going for.
The beach is wide (40-50 meters wide), large pebbles near the shore (but very round and we liked it), and shallow, like sand, three meters from the shore. There are a moderate number of people. Calmly. The flip side is that there is no entertainment (well, or we just didn't meet), there are no playgrounds, my daughter was bored, we entertained ourselves. There is no playground in the hotel, as stated on the website.
One boat per hour with walks, one corn merchant, no music. Everything is very cultured and calm.
The hotel has a well-groomed territory as a whole, the water in the pool is clean (workers clean every other day), flowering bushes, palm trees and thuja around it, lawns are mowed, there is no garbage anywhere, bins throughout the territory. The sun beds near the pool are tired in places, but it doesn't bother. There are umbrellas, you can sit in a pleasant shade in the heat. For smokers - you can smoke anywhere in the hotel, except in rooms/cottages and balconies in buildings
Wi-Fi. There is no word for it in the cottage at ALL. But there is one on the veranda and on the territory of the hotel. Intermittently, but we came to rest, and took a break from the Internet).
The light was turned off once for 10 minutes. When there is no light, there is no water in the cottage.
Cleaning was offered on the 5th day (the maid swept, washed the sink and toilet), bed linen and towels were not changed, as stated, but we did not care.
Breakfast is from 8.30 to 10. At 8.30, a queue is already gathering, people are rushing somewhere (perhaps on excursions that start at 8.45). If you come at 9.30, there may not be boiling water and the choice of food is significantly narrowed.
Boiled eggs or omelette, buckwheat, pasta, some kind of salad with mayonnaise, tomatoes and cucumbers, sausages, 2 types of sausage, 4 types of milk porridge, buns (but by 9 they are usually gone), cottage cheese, sour cream (with milk fat substitutes, which greatly spoiled the taste of normal cottage cheese) and jam. Lisma tea, coffee and cocoa are the cheapest, milk in packs (there were also cereals and chocolate balls, many children had breakfast with them) The assortment does not change much from day to day. On the 4th day, we had breakfast in other places
The cafe at the hotel cooks well (especially the khachapuri boat is divinely delicious and large - you can have lunch together with only one). But it has been working since 12.
The territory is not closed or guarded. But we felt safe.
After 23.00, all music is turned off and a magical silence reigns. No drunken companies, discos - just the chirping of cicadas and the bottomless sky above.
The overall impression is 4 out of 5
Perfect. No complaints. And the bar, the service, the cuisine, as in the best restaurants. The room is clean and cozy, the pool is excellent. I recommend 200 percent. We rested there in 2023, arrived in 2024, it's a pity there were no available rooms, but we went to the bar to have dinner with them almost every day. This hotel was the main reason that we returned to Abkhazia) The administration did well, they built as many as 12 more houses in a year, smartly) 👍👍👍
