Hotel. The hotel staff is attentive and friendly. Small but clean and well maintained area. The elegant design of the hotel creates a positive mood - a spacious hall, new furniture, beautiful lighting. The glass elevator gives a special charm - inside it is all sparkling and shining, and on the floor there is a mosaic with the hotel's brand name (every detail of the interior is thought out). The rooms are cozy, spacious, with new furniture, soft carpet on the floor. We got a room overlooking the hotel from the side of the fountain. The fountain turned off at night and turned on in the morning, so the noise of the water did not interfere with sleep. In those rooms whose windows overlook the pool, perhaps the music that turned on in the morning and evening could disturb. These nuances need to be clarified individually for each person. Considering the attentiveness with which the reception staff responds to the requests of vacationers, the issues are probably resolved. We had an extra bed in our room which we didn't need and took up space. We asked her to take it out. By the time we got to our room (we went up from the 1st to the 4th floor) from the reception, there was no bed in the room anymore : -) The rooms were cleaned every day. Several times they left $ 1 for cleaning (knowing this tradition in Turkey). But on those days when no money was left, the cleaning was still carefully carried out. The air conditioner in the room was set to +25 and it was impossible to set it to a lower temperature. But we did not find out this issue, because the weather was cool in the evenings and it was more pleasant to open the balcony than to use the air conditioner.
Kitchen. Abundance and sophistication, as in Turkish 5 * hotels, you will not find. But the distinguishing feature of all dishes is professionalism, natural products, traditional Turkish dishes, European cuisine and even our traditional salads (Olivier salad, vinaigrette, mimosa, beetroot salads). The preparation of our traditional salads can be appreciated as a concern for people who, for individual reasons, find it difficult to adapt to Turkish cuisine. Mayonnaise was not added to salads, but Turkish sauces, yogurts were used, which gave them a piquant taste. Breakfast - traditional yogurt with different fillings, different types of cheeses and sausages. You will not find such yoghurts, cheeses and sausages in our stores! Omelettes, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, milk porridge, buns, stewed and fresh vegetables, greens, jam, kholopya, waffles, chocolate. Coffee in vending machines to choose from. Traditional Turkish tea. Natural milk. Drinks to choose from - cola, wine, juices (from the machine). Freshly squeezed juices can be tasted outside the hotel for $1. Lunches - traditional Turkish soups, fish, chicken, turkey, stewed vegetables, sauté ed vegetables, fresh vegetables, herbs, cheeses, meatballs, potatoes, rice, pasta, all kinds of sauces and seasonings, salads, traditional Turkish sweets. Dinner - menu similar to lunch. Gozleme, a traditional Turkish tortilla with cheese cooked in the oven, was very popular. The stove is located near the pool. Also at dinner there were a lot of fish and meat dishes prepared in front of you on special baking sheets. More extensive selection of Turkish sweets. One drawback should be noted - the lack of variety of fruits. There were only apples and tangerines. The dishes were always clean, there was no shortage of cutlery and plates.
Beach. 5-7 minutes walk from the hotel, small pebbles. Canopies from the sun - along the entire beach. Sunbeds, mattresses - no problems were observed, there was enough for everyone. The water is crystal clear. On the beach - a bar with drinks and food. The beach is surrounded by a beautiful white fence. Shower - with fresh water. The area behind the fence resembles a small embankment. You can walk along it, admiring the date palms, banana trees and other diverse exotic vegetation.

Previously, such a phenomenon as empty hotels in Turkey was not encountered. We collided this year. At the end of our holiday, there were visually 10 people left in our hotel. We were warned a day in advance that we were being moved to another hotel. Therefore, we spent the remaining 2 days of our holiday in another hotel.
