Tour operator Anex tour, Azur Air. The departure was scheduled for 08.11. 17 at 01-05, arrival in GOA 07-45, rescheduled the departure for 07.11. 17.23-15, departed at 23-35, circled over the airport in GOA for a long time, because the airport did not accept. then we sat on the plane for a long time, left the plane at 07-45, practically added 2 hours to us on the plane. I read reviews about the airline and expected the worst, but was pleasantly surprised. We sat in the last salon, the only minus is the small distance between the seats with a height above 175, it is not comfortable to sit. Arrived at the hotel for early check-in, you need to pay an additional $ 20. We lived in a new building, the rooms are good. There is no kettle or hair dryer in the room. beach towels, shampoos, water is not given. The room has air conditioning, which helped us out, a fan, a TV. Take Fumitox with you. We left a tip, the room was cleaned every day, if you don’t leave a tip, they will open and close the room, they won’t clean it, they won’t even take out the garbage. White clean linen. The hotel staff is good and friendly. The hotel area is small, but clean and green. Normal breakfasts - juice, porridge, scrambled eggs, butter, jams, rice with vegetables, tea, coffee. The tables in the restaurant are not wiped, the dishes are removed and everything is wiped with wet wipes on their own. The location of the hotel is good to the beach 15-20 minutes. There are constant waves on the Arabian Sea, the sea is very warm. There are 2 large supermarkets in Kondiloma, you can walk in 20 minutes along the main road. We took excursions to the beaches of South GOA, we really wanted to see Cola Beach, which was included in the program, we were assured that we would go to Cola Beach, but already during the tour, Cola Beach was replaced by Agoda Beach, to our indignation, we were told that they were repairing the road and there is no passage. It is necessary to go down to the beach on foot, but no one asked us, while everyone agreed to go down. The next day, we were offered vouchers on the beach, we asked the Cola beach is included in the program, to which we were assured that it was included, after we said that we had traveled yesterday and the road was closed, they admitted that the road had not yet dried out and was not transported. On the way back, departure from the hotel at 6-30, at 6-20 a bus drove up looking for some tourists from a nearby hotel, but there was another entrance to that hotel. We asked and we, we were told this is not your bus, wait. What was our surprise when, 15 minutes later, the same bus arrived for us. When asked why they didn’t take us right away, they answered us clearly, everything was on time. It's strange somehow. We were brought to the airport at 07-30, check-in began at 09-00. I pick up early, probably so as not to have breakfast, probably save. Departure at 12-00. at 11-20. boarding was announced, 12-10 boarding didn’t start, finally we went to board, well, it wasn’t there, they let us onto the stairs and everyone stood on the stairs for about 30 minutes. let out, the plane is not ready yet, but they did not stand for long and finally took off at 13-30. from the moment of departure from the hotel to the departure time was 7 hours, and even the flight.
