We rested in Turkey for the first time with my husband and two children 5 and 13 years old. In general, the holiday went well. We arrived at the hotel in the evening at 20-45, we were greeted very friendly, immediately sent to dinner. While we were eating we were issued and then settled. At the reception gave $ 10, but as it turned out later in vain. The room was a good family-room, clean and comfortable (like others I've seen), with a balcony. The view from the rooms of almost all of the sea, or part of the sea. The room has one double bed in one room, a bunk bed in the other, a bar counter, a refrigerator, a TV, an armchair.
The food sucked. For all the time in the dining room they gave 3 times chicken and 2 times fatty mackerel. There are practically no pastries, only local pretzels for breakfast (no pizza, as stated). Of the fruits, only watermelons. There were also few sweets: whipped cream 2 times, jelly, semolina puddings and mousses. Lots of vegetables.
There are no shops near the hotel, they are farther (from about 1 km), but there was a fruit tent nearby, almost all $ 2, but generously imposed, more than a kilogram.

The beach is small but clean. There were enough sun loungers. The entry into the sea could be called good, but there were pitfalls. The pontoon requires reconstruction, behind it pipes stick out of the water. However, you can jump, deep 5-6 meters. The water is clean, very clear, but salty.
Animation is weak, 2 times a day water polo, darts, sometimes beach volleyball. Just 2 animators, not 6 as stated. At 21-00 mini-disco for children, cool, well, parents were pulled out. It was fun enough. At 23-00 a disco, for $ 7 they were taken to another place. Animators Roma, a Russian-speaking and Khimi-Turk, young guys, basically worked out their bread, well done. They arranged fire shows, various competitions for couples, children, etc.
Excursions from Pegasus $ 50-60, but next to 15 minutes walk there is a "Russian Travel Agency", the owner of the Turks there, but has Russian citizenship, sold 2 times cheaper.
The disadvantages of the hotel were explained to us. About a year ago, the owner changed and they were not able to fully prepare for the new season, but they promised that after a short time the hotel would rise again to 4.
In principle, we were satisfied, the children too. Enjoyed the rest, swam in the sea, ate fruit, in general, nothing bothered. For little money you can go for the first time. It's not as bad as they write about the hotel. And the contingent that had a rest (decent people) responded well.
Tips: take records and spray for mosquitoes; if you often use the phone, connect roaming (at the hotel, a card $ 8 for 30 minutes - calls from the reception); for children, take vests and armlets with you, there - from $ 8 to $ 40, well, and a positive attitude.
