I want to share my impressions about the rest this year. We were in Anapa, in Vityazevo, at the Astoria Hotel. The most positive emotions remained. We went for three weeks (June-July).
We flew as usual S7. On the way to the hotel, we stood in a traffic jam, it’s not like without them, even there. Upon arrival we were seated immediately. On the fourth floor, it's bad that there is no elevator, it's practically on the fifth to climb several times a day. Well, physical education hasn't harmed anyone yet. My children, 8 and 5 years old, did not complain, but it was hard for my mother. The room was a family room, two rooms. Two balconies, standard furnishings, only chairs were missing, but chairs were brought from the balcony. Clean, comfortable, windows facing the street. In the evenings you can hear music from neighboring hotels, but not always. The area is small, but well-groomed and thoughtful. A pond, flowers, trees, benches, deckchairs, rocking chairs, sofas, a gazebo for children and a playground, bicycles, scooters. Children run in a crowd on their own, the territory is fenced.
The pool was heated a little, rarely when it was full of people, most went to the sea. It took about 10-15 minutes to walk to it with a brisk pace, it didn't bother me. The beach is big and clean. The sunbeds are given out by the workers when you show the guest card, there was enough space for everyone. Many athletes stay at the hotel, and they rarely visit the beach. There are awnings, cafes. You can ride a circle along the beach and dunes on a quad bike - 100 rubles. Ride, cool, breathtaking. On a banana-250r, they don’t turn over, I rode with my daughter, the only splash in my face, I was already choking. Photos with all kinds of animals were dragged along the beach. The sea was practically clean, but not particularly warm. Let's go back to the hotel. We took only breakfast, because it is included. In the morning lined up awesome line at the restaurant. First came the athletes, then the rest. The food is good but monotonous. Once we dined on a custom menu, when we just arrived, it was very expensive.

Lunch and dinner are the same buffet as breakfast. The workers themselves impose on you what you ask. We went to eat at the Hellas Hotel, on a recommendation. And they didn’t regret it, it’s cheaper there, as well as high-quality food, the portions are large. We also ate a couple of times in the dining room on Paralia and in the Parthenon, the food is no worse. We visited the dolphinarium in Vityazevo, it is next to the hotel, there are always a lot of people there. I liked the presentation. Were in the oceanarium, the Baloo Zoo and penguinaria on Pioneer Avenue. We arrived by minibus, because the final stop is not far from the hotel, we were able to get in. The reverse is more problematic. I liked everything except the penguinaria. Too little for the price. A couple of penguins and two fur seals. The zoo is great. Glass instead of bars. Were in the oceanarium and the whale-anarium in Anapa itself, located in the park. Came in the evening at 18h to feed the whale and fur seals. The children were happy. Anapa is rebuilding just before our eyes.
After the round, a place in the ward was vacated. Shower, bath, toilet are all in the room. The child was stuffed with pills, made an injection and he felt better. As soon as they said that the tests were normal and we just had an infection, I left in the evening on receipt, having learned how to treat. Otherwise, they would not have been released. There was no point in staying there. Stuffy awful and noisy. We got to the hotel by taxi, which are not far from the hospital. I agreed on 350 rubles. I'll explain in detail, in case anyone needs the information. The hotel hosted entertainment for children and adults several times a week. All hotel staff are very friendly, attentive, respond to any request. Cleaners licked the hotel from morning to evening. The workers kept the area clean. The owner himself lives in this hotel and constantly controls everything. A very pleasant and responsive person. In general, we did not regret that we stopped here.
We were very pleased with the rest, despite the small annoyances. The main thing is a positive attitude. If we are in Anapa, then we will only stay at this hotel, because we did not want to leave as never before.
