Отличный отдых! Great vacation!

We rested from 13-20.08. 2010, I am a father of 37 years old and a daughter of 9 years old. It was the first time in Turkey, I didn’t go before because of the principle, but it turned out that in vain.
1. Flight - Atlant-Soyuz IL-86 everything went fine, flew IL 1 time, it turned out to be no worse than Boeing, our pilots are just super, excellent takeoff and soft landing.
2. Upon arrival in Antalya, they charged 20 dollars for a visa, although they said that they had supposedly been canceled since July 27, all this is not so. They are canceled for athletes who travel for work, etc. Met, brought to the hotel normally. I immediately put 20 dollars into my passport and a note in Turkish (prepared in Moscow) that I needed a quiet, calm room with a sea view. I laid down the money, in principle, so as not to wait for 14-00 hours, since the rooms are rented at 12-00 and then they are prepared, and we arrived at 11-00, although it was possible not to pay, since all the hotel rooms are good and with a direct view only the central wing is on the sea and you can see it normally somewhere from the 3rd floor.

3. Number - they gave 1262 on the second floor, the room was good, everything worked, no problems, but the fact that there is central air conditioning, it’s not even worth bothering with, everything cools perfectly, even over the top. All photos on the sites are true. As long as the hotel is fresh everything will be ok.
4. The hotel is a good modern one, everything is constantly rubbed and cleaned, cleanliness, comfort, the pools are clean, they are chlorinated and cleaned every evening. Good water slides. Normal animation, someone is always invited, in our time in the evening there were Brazilians with sambo and capuera, and Chinese with cymbals and much more. Normal pool bar and everything is just fine.
5. Food is generally a separate song, they simply won’t let you be hungry, it’s not possible, since the food is designed for anyone, a very large assortment and most importantly, everything is VERY TASTY!! ! There is anything you like, meat lovers in general are delightful - beef, stewed chicken, fried chicken, duck, turkey, quail, fish, steamed shrimp. Next, shrimps every day with mussels and squid in glasses, one day there were royal fried prawns. Salads, various stews, potatoes, sweet baklava, desserts, and much, much more.
6. Alcohol - getting drunk on cocktails or beer is of course difficult, since beer comes with a small degree, and cocktails with a lot of ice and consistency. I made the following move for this - I met the bartender Ismail - a good fellow, I gave him a pack of cigarettes, and this is a good present for them, and I also threw in $ 1, but for this I received cool cocktails and attention from him. In the bar and in the restaurant "panorama" I ordered their Rakia vodka, a normal aniseed vodka.
7. The sea is excellent, the cleanest, the beach is clean, there are no problems with sunbeds. As for the pebbles, buy bathing slippers in the store for $ 7 or more comfortable and cute from $ 10-18, this is where and how you bargain and this will be the solution to your problem.

8. Excursions - they took on the street from Sergey in Odyssey Travel, in a hotel 2-3 times more expensive for the same ones. I advise you to take an excursion to the Jet Star yacht, visit 3 bays, swim in the open sea, and get a super performance from the captain of the yacht Ramazan, the captain is just super. We also went to the water park, everything seems to be so normal, but there is a “but” - a lot of people and there are not so many slides, we had to queue from 5 to 15-20 minutes, and there are many more slides from the age of 12. My daughter liked the yacht tour more than the water park.
9. The audience - 65-75% are Russians and the CIS, the rest are all riffraff, so to speak - Poles, Czechs, Germans, British, etc. , there are also locals. Here someone writes that the disadvantage is our tourists. My opinion - the disadvantage is foreigners, they are complete freaks, without education and respect for others. The most educated tourist is a “Russian”, but this is my personal opinion. There were no drunks or any debauches. Everything is "decorative and noble. "
10. You don't need to know English at all, everyone in the hotel and on the street understands and speaks Russian. Local merchants say that KEMER is a Russian city.
11. We had a great rest, I highly recommend staying at Crystal Hotels De Luxe Resort & Spa. If you have any questions write, I will answer.
