I warn you right away that I am not writing this review on emotions. I tell it like it is. rested in hotels of different categories from sun heaven to botanik. saw a lot of things. But we won't go to this hotel again! in the top three in sun haven and even better than here! I'll post them all separately...
drive from the airport for an hour and a half. the hotel is located just between the two markets in konakli and avsalar. walk to any one for about half an hour (to the village of konakli more! ). wilderness on both sides of the hotel. this is an amateur. 15 minutes drive to summer garden.
By the way, locals say that this hotel is not clear how it got its 4 stars! was a three for a long time, and then OPA and became a four! This is also something to think about...


The area is perhaps the only plus of the hotel. it is very green and quite big! a lot of plants, trees ...we were delighted with this! Well, one territory is full and you will not be satisfied!
those who will be accommodated in the upper buildings are advised in advance to swing their legs and not drink a lot! )) climb quite far and go at an angle, because all the "entertainment" part of the hotel is on the first line, but the buildings are already on the second. it was tiring. but it also has its advantages.
There are 5 pools, but this is counting 2 children's paddling pools and a "water park". during our vacation there was no declared pool with sea water, because by the beginning of the season, you see, they didn’t have time to fill it! so there was regular bleach! and for us it was a special minus, since in early May the sea often stormed and vacationers were simply not allowed into the water! so I had to swim in this bleach.
slides 3. but 2 work))) and by the way, I know about 8 people who tore their swimsuits on them)) a trifle, but a shame!
the hotel also has a shop with all sorts of junk, a hairdresser and a leather salon. never went - we do not know the prices.
the Internet is. $5 hour, $3 half an hour.

what's terrible is the number! do not take it as snickering, because we ourselves are laughing at the reviews where everyone complains about the numbers! As expected, we only slept in the room. but that was quite enough to describe everything now. standard room the size of a pantry! in the presence of everything that should be in a standard room of any hotel. but the beds were so close that we went to bed and got up in the morning crawling all over the bed and sitting down at our feet! one bedside table, a TV on the wall, a 1x1 balcony (I'm not exaggerating!! ) we only had one plastic chair on it! there are several rooms in the hotel with such meager balconies. In the evenings it was even problematic to go out for a smoke! minuscule in a word ...by the way, the very view from the room looked out on a blank wall 1.5 meters high and on some barrels that hummed wildly in the morning and every 2 hours hotel workers approached them and knocked on them! and in the morning I want to sleep so much .....
in this hotel do not settle for rooms on the 1st floor!
what else about our number. Upon arrival, it had a terrible smell of dampness and mold. later, after a downpour, mold crawled out on the walls. at the reception, when asked to change the room due to mold on the walls and an unbearable smell, we were told that they also have flooded rooms and they are not up to us! But the hotel is in the FAMILY category! parents, have pity on your children! all night to breathe mold - I could not do that.

The service is normal like so ...the rooms were cleaned during the day. linen was not changed every day, but we don’t need it! on the fifth day of rest, we threw the room towels on the floor, thereby asking them to be replaced. what is interesting is that the maid took the towels from the floor and arranged them beautifully on the beds! (who cares how we distinguished them is by the rust spots that we have become accustomed to these days). but this did not surprise us either. conventional system.
everyone knows the base in Russian
. waiters too. what surprised me was that the hotel does not allow you to move 2 tables together during dinner! if the vacationers are moved, then the waiters will move them apart again and put them in their places. the rest of the service is ok.

God forbid I eat like this again! even compared to my favorite sun heaven 3*! there we ate MEAT! and here.....
soy, chicken and grass. grass, chicken and soy....oh, watermelons! but the Russians scatter everything in 5 minutes, apparently delicious. well, we hurt for them and didn’t fight (this is a lyrical digression already, for lovers of green berries! )))
Again, parents of children, have pity on them! Do you agree to eat pasta and bread for 10 days? and drink all the yuppies and water? then welcome to the children's table!
the hotel is not for lovers of sweets - there are only 3 of them. and even then, very primitive.
what else..... bars! but all about them, in principle, can be read in previous reviews ...

what surprised me personally was the very limited selection of alcoholic drinks in the all inclusive. vodka, wine (red and white), crayfish, gin - everything that is "included"))). although once, through an acquaintance, having made my way to a bar to admire paid drinks, I secretly noticed that they were all locally produced too! just apparently the owner of the hotel saves very well by passing them off as "imported". so again, you be the judge. . ))

regarding the sea and the beach - the blue flag of unesco. yeah. and I'm a ballerina! ))
the beach is DIRTY! during our vacation on the shore lay and, pardon the expression, the seaweed stank! you can’t drag children into the sea with such a stench and dirt! and do not need to translate all the arrows on the storm! Is it really a problem for the hotel to shovel all the algae off the beach strip to the side? we reached the neighboring beach and made sure that this is not a problem for the Turks! but apparently not for gunes garden hotel.
Well, the water in the sea in terms of cleanliness seems to be nothing like that. from the pier I clean and warmer.
Again, I emphasize - a children's hotel. will you throw the children off the pier if they don’t come from the shore? ))
stones at the entrance to the sea. many stones. and on the pier, splinters are nowhere easier to get!

animation. Well, I saw them sometimes)) maybe I’ll even remember their names ...
gymnasticsbochadarts. dinner. volleyball. like after our departure there was also water aerobics. Well, it's not for me to say! I describe everything as it was during my vacation! ) the number of people who want to participate ...well. people walked and a certain amount was always recruited! adults in the hotel are bored and that's a fact.
but children - expanse! they idolize the children's entertainer and the mini disco party! it is of course yes. and yet, in terms of children's animation, this hotel is far from ideal. Yes, and in terms of adults, too.
evening shows. we arrived at the moment when an animation group of dancers of 5 people had not yet arrived at the hotel for various shows. so we saw some mayhem at the evening animation shows!
I even thought that our company flew to this hotel even before the animators! because almost every day we were told - oh! Another animator has arrived! and by our departure we counted only five of them!

conclusion - adults are bored, children have more fun. the most fun in this hotel animators. here's a break for them!
2-3 times a week discos in the hotel in the style of "over 30". in a day departure to konakli club summer garden. on Sunday the whole animation team is resting.

about children - san family club forever.
there is a playground, there is a children's pool, there is a mini disco, there is a mini club, there are children's competitions. everything seems to be there.
And will you feed your children? ))
And by the way, many children cried. From the outside, the hotel looks like a kindergarten. A LOT of kids! they swore among themselves, fought, because of this, parents cursed.
then the very next day, when the child is walking alone without his mothers and fathers, the other child's parents come up and give him a good scolding. here is a Russian hotel for families. you can't follow everything. so we would not fly here with a child. well, left at home. it is better to go to a hotel where there are less "hotel is perfect for kids!! " headlines. it's calmer there. pity your own children.

You know, I won't go there again! and if I knew all this at once, then I would not have gone the first time!
You can ask all your questions in the comments! do not be shy, I will answer everyone! ))
