Мои часы остановились на побережье Средиземного моря! My watch has stopped on the Mediterranean coast!

Hi all! My husband and I spent our "honey" week on the Mediterranean coast in Turkey. The rest was just awesome, despite the fact that we were going to a 3-star hotel. I will rate my vacation for all 5 BALLS. And so in order:
Soral Travel and Odeon Tours (tour operator through which the meeting party flew)
just smarties, met at the Airport, a large comfortable Mitsubishi bus. By the way, the buses of all the other tour operators were much smaller : ))))) and less comfortable. I met a Russian-speaking girl Elvira, she entertained us all the time of the trip, told us about excursions, about the country. In general, Turkey greeted us very warmly (air temperature 40 degrees, water 29), a fairy tale.....
Hotel guide Parviz

Despite the fact that they read not very good reviews about him, they were ready for anything. BUT! Parviz turned out to be a rather handsome, young Turk who spoke Russian well. And also VERY funny. Bought tours from him. We took a 2 day tour to Ephesus and Pamukkale. We swam in the Cleopatra's pool..... : ), and spent the night in a 5-star hotel. Lunch, dinner in a restaurant. I liked everything, only in Ephesus the air temperature was somewhere around 40-45 degrees. It's good that we took a safety sunblock and hats. Were in the house of St. Mary, drank water from holy springs. There are many more things to list.....
SEA. . .
Simply excellent, I was born on the Azov, was still on the Black, but they are not comparable with the Mediterranean! It is simply magical. Much more salty than Black and Azov, it is not possible to drown, because of the salinity it raises you to the surface. My husband and I bought glasses for $10. for snorkeling and enjoy the underwater world. The bottom there is rocky, but it is quite possible to go into the sea, the Turks cut through the entrance to the sea. Although you can go on the rocks. : ). Another main plus of the sea is that it is warm, even at night. On the beach (own at the hotel) sun loungers, mattresses, umbrellas - all for free. True, it is better to take them early, otherwise there may not be enough for everyone.
Room, food, maid....
We lived in room 2508, in building 2.3 beds, TV, refrigerator, air conditioning, large balcony with chairs and a table, bathroom with shower, toilet. Everything is ok. The room was cleaned every other day, the maid was smart, diligent (they left 1 dollar for cleaning) FOOD: I liked it very much, a lot of vegetables, fruits are always watermelons, cut into pieces. Meat is not much, but I can do without it. They gave fish, I liked it very much. For 3 stars - a large selection of dishes, especially salads and greens!
I also liked the animation, Natalie is just a smart girl, Fakir is great, they even participated in the evening animation for adults.
Yes, we met Belarusians, also a married couple, very good people. Sergei and Tatyana, a big hello to you! In general, the tourists were all from Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, a few locals. Then everyone became friends and it was very cool! I wrote a lot, I didn’t seem to forget anything,... yes, you will go to Turkey, don’t forget our vodka, otherwise it’s very specific there, it’s called RAKI..... Have a good rest and excellent mood!! !
