We had a great rest, of course there are disadvantages, but they do not cover the advantages. In order:
Nice, clean, comfortable, beautiful rooms. There is a kettle, a refrigerator, a glass shower, a TV with Russian channels, and the air conditioner works flawlessly.
The food is good, we have never been hungry, they feed us all day, breakfast until 10 a.m., then pita bread with grilled filling, then lunch, again pita bread or bagels, then dinner.
THEY did NOT get POISONED, they did not catch rotavirus, as others write. Side dishes include rice, bulgur, orzo, potatoes, pasta. Of meat, chicken , sausage and sausages are more often tasteless, there was turkey and beef patties, fish was 3 times a week. Vegetables and greens are plentiful. Of the fruits, only watermelon, plums and pears, which were quickly disassembled. Sweet is a typical Turkish separate pastry. There were also soups.
Based on the experience of staying in a threesome, we chose simple food, I always sniffed what could go bad, we didn't see cockroaches, they clean up as soon as they see that people have finished. There is always a manager sitting or walking in the hall, who monitors the employees.
Of the cons: the distribution /dining room is small, so there are long queues in the first half hour, both in the main dining room and at the grill. We took our time and went to get food after half an hour.
Also, due to the large number of vacationers, they do not have time to wash glasses and appliances efficiently. Plus the glasses are plastic, so they look yellow.
We always wiped the appliances with a napkin before eating, and also drank only with tubes.
As for the bar, the beer is light and ordinary, the store next door tastes better, of course, but it also costs 85 lira. There was white and red wine, vodka, gin. The coffee from the vending machine is like 3in1, the tea is good. Drinks-juices (diluted) without restrictions. And alcohol is poured without problems, no one counts how many glasses you took, and they do it well. And ice and lemon will put everything. There are also paid cocktails such as aperrll and longaland at a price similar to in Russia. (7 euros)
The staff at the hotel is responsive, friendly, there are a lot of people who speak Russian, so there are no problems with communication.
I would like to note that the hotel is more youth-oriented: the music is noisy until 23 exactly, so I do not recommend it with children. At the same time, many people rested with children, it seems to me that they are the ones who suffer from rotavirus, because children grab a lot of water in the pool and in the sea.
Beach and sea: there are pebbles on the beach, in the sea the plates are large, wide and long, so people go in other directions. We are in Turkey for the 3rd time and it is impossible to swim without special shoes. Therefore, shop around. But we were ready. There are a lot of sun loungers and enough for everyone. But there are problems with umbrellas, a lot of broken and leaky ones.
Access to the beach through a tunnel immediately from the hotel.
By the way, a towel for the beach is given on bail. There is free water, juices, and coffee at the beach bar. The rest is paid and expensive.
There is a changing room, toilet and shower behind the bar. For some reason, they don't talk about it.
WiFi: it was an important attribute for me, and it turned out that VF catches almost everywhere, both in the room on the 3rd floor and on the beach. Moreover, it is free and worked well.
We did not pay extra for the room upon check-in, we were given a room with a view of the dining room, of course it is noisy in the evening, but at 11 they turn off the music. We were settled quickly. An hour and a half earlier, and we waited five minutes from the moment we entered the hotel.
Nearby there is a small network migros, a pharmacy with a Russian pharmacist, the rest of the shops for tourists are very expensive, do not even waste time on them. On Thursday, a large clothing market arrives near the hotel (there is also food).
There are also two swimming pools and 2 slides on site. A separate small one for children. There are sun loungers and tables on the second floor of the terrace.
The result: we paid 44 thousand. For a week for two. I think the price and quality are excellent, I even expected less. Of course, after reading the reviews, I was afraid of poisoning myself, so I write a review 5 days after returning, so that I can be sure. There are disadvantages, and for some they are huge, but not for us.
If you are used to relaxing in the top five or expect a lot from the Turkish top four, you are not here. If you are on the positive side, do not dig into the details, then you will like it. For this money, I would have returned next year. We had a great rest at this hotel. Plus, we went for a lot of walks and shopping. Of course, I do not recommend going with children because of the noise. Well, if you are picky about food, too.
I remembered that the animation was two times in a week: 1 time games from the bartender, the second time belly dancing.
Who has already taken the tour, do not worry, the hotel is good.
A normal hotel, it will do for 4, is small, there is almost no territory at all, 2 swimming pools and a second level for sun beds. The food is delicious, varied, and healthy... of the sauces, only ketchup. In the evenings, dishes on the grill are chicken, fish. Many people write about unsanitary conditions, but in 10 days I haven't seen a single bug, the rooms are washed every day, the dining room is just as clean. Of the disadvantages, the hotel is not large, 2 buildings look at each other, if the windows overlook the neighboring building, then the room will be dark, we were lucky, the room was on the top floor and we saw the sun every day. The audibility is very strong, you can hear everything, both music and people. The doors to the room are interior, it blows from all the cracks. The beach is small, the pebbles are sand. Sun beds and umbrellas are free of charge. You can take drinks from the bar with you. Beach towels can only be taken on deposit. The overall impression is good. After reading the negative reviews, we were afraid to go, but everything is fine. You can go once.
The hotel is super! I really liked it! The room was cleaned every day, shower gel, soap, tea and coffee bags and clean towels were added. There are rooms with sea views, but we lived without a view, you can smoke on the balcony, there is a table and 2 chairs, a clothes dryer on the wall. The bathroom is small, but quite normal, the shower is large enough by the way, which is rare in hotels. The sea! The sea is right next to the hotel, it is believed that this is the 2nd line, but there is no first one, because after the beach there is a road and then hotels, but!!! There is a tunnel from the hotel to the beach (no need to cross the road)! It was probably 2 minutes from our room to the beach))) beach towels are given on a deposit of 10 dollars or 10 euros, when returning towels they give a deposit, everything is fair) There are always several types of coffee in the vending machine and soda available. The bar is open from 10-22.00 and there is already wine, gin, beer and vodka. I liked the food, a lot of greens, cheese, olives, a whole grilled fish every other day for lunch or dinner. There are always fruits, local desserts and salads. Meat eaters certainly won't like it very much, there is little meat here… But I'm not one of them, so it was delicious for me! There are also 2 swimming pools on site, but the water was cool, and the sea was warmer, we went to the beach all the time. We were in the second half of October. I also liked the fact that you could always find a free sunbed or umbrella!!! Maybe because it's not the season of course ... I highly recommend the hotel, 3-4 star hotel, different sites have different stars for some reason))))
