After some time, I decided to tell you about our excellent vacation at the Disalia Palm Garden 5 * hotel. It all started with an adventure. I bought a ticket in February in Belarus, it turned out much cheaper than in the high season, I managed to save about 50.000 rubles, which is good news. Departure was on the night of 05.06. at about 04 am, so we did not lose the first day of rest. However, closer to the departure, the fun began with the charter carrier VIMavia, so that they had no bottom or tire. As a result, thanks to our travel agent and the Sanmar travel agency, we were transferred to Ural Airlines for almost the same time. Well, all right, we arrived, registered, otdutifrishilis, flew. Arrival in Antalya at about 7 am, met, put on the bus, drove off. To Alanya and specifically the village of Konakli, where the hotel is located, about 3-3.5 hours drive with a stop at some kind of baited market for a smoke break. We were at the hotel around 10 am. The first impression, of course, is always good, the hall is beautiful, especially the ceiling made of multi-colored LEDs. We submit documents, fill out a couple of pieces of paper, get blue bracelets on our hands and get ready to shy away through the territory until the time of arrival, that is, until 2 pm. But it turned out to be a little different. Before we had time to move away from the reception desk to suitcases, we were informed that our room was ready! Excellent, nice surprise! Yes, two girls at the reception speak Russian, one is ours, and the second Turkish woman is quite tolerable and understands and speaks, so there are no problems. Okay, the porter grabs our bags and scratches into the room. By the way, we paid for a standard room for three. We arrive at the room in the second building on the 3rd floor. At the entrance a little baldeli-we were given a two-room family suite!! ! Oppa, another surprise. At first they thought that they were mistaken, but then there were no complaints against us, so we were lucky! The room is excellent, the furniture is new, in one room there are two beds, in the other one double bed. TVs in every room, laminate floors, super plumbing in the bathroom and shower and bath and everything else. Soap, hats and some other crap in stock. Gel in dispensers at the washbasin and in the cabin. Central air conditioning, remote controls on the wall in each room are independent. In the rooms there is a mini bar-cold, initially filled with juices and all sorts of phantoms, as a present upon arrival, then every day they brought two and a half drops of plain water. Yes, I read here in the reviews that many are unhappy with the rare change of towels. Guys, there is a sign in the bathroom, which says that in order to save money or the environment))) if you need to change the towel, then throw it in the bath! It is in the bath, and not on a hanger, on the floor or balcony. Those are the rules they have. If the towel is in the bathroom, then it is immediately changed!
All the rules, uncovered, banged duty free wine, well, and began to rest.
The first thing we did was to bypass the territory. The territory is not to say that it is large, but everything is very well located, everything is in palm-flowered flowers, beauty in general. Three swimming pools, one large for adults, one with slides for everyone and a paddling pool for the little ones also with slides. The water is warm and there is no smell of chemicals. Next to the pool is a bar with drinks, next to the children's pool is something like a snack bar where pizza, hamburgers and hot dogs are made from 12 o'clock. Everything edible, enough for everyone. Oh, and they serve ice cream in the afternoon. I haven't eaten, they say delicious. The main restaurant is located right next to the bar, part of the tables inside, part outside (air conditioning inside, it gets hot outside).

The hotel is positioned as the first line, but in fact there is another hotel between the hotel and the sea, so you have to walk along the sidewalk outside the territory of 200-300 meters to the sea, which never bothers you. When you arrive at the beach, you pass through the territory of the beach bar, where there are drinks and the same hamburgers. A guzlemeshnitsa works nearby from 10 am to 4 pm. There is no strong alcohol in the beach bar, only beer. There are a couple of vending machines with coffee and soft drinks and something like ayran.
Beach. The beach of the hotel is private, fenced, small pebbles, almost sandy. There are plenty of sunbeds, the beachboy is always in place, he immediately brings mattresses and who needs additional umbrellas. There is no need to take any seats, there is always one. There is a volleyball court and a children's playground. Entrance to the sea from the pier, which is also full of sun loungers. Of course, you can enter the sea from the shore, if you wish, but I don’t recommend it, almost everywhere there is a slippery slab. There is a small area to the right of the pier, but there for small children only, somewhere in 10 meters deep (to the waist for an adult), the plate begins again. For those who can swim from the pier, it’s great to dive and take the stairs. The water is clean, very salty. I did not notice any plums into the water in two weeks. The sea is mostly wavy, but not much, there was a strong storm for a couple of days, the pier was closed. But do you scare ours)))? Well, those who swim badly go to the pool, where all the sunbeds are almost always occupied, but if you wish, there is a mountain of sunbeds and mattresses around the corner of the second building, you need to drag and sunbathe.
Nutrition. Everything is ok with food at the hotel. For a hotel in this price range, just fucking! Except probably pork and lobsters in champagne was everything. I will not describe, for a very long time, but there were beef tongues and shish kebab (namely shish kebab), and all kinds of grills, and shawarma, well, I’m silent about chickens and turkeys. And, on a Turkish evening, whole turkeys were fried, they are like pigs in size! Fruits were bananas, apples, watermelons, melons, oranges, grapefruits and some other local garbage. Peaches, apricots and pineapples were in the form of pieces in syrup. There were no cherries and strawberries, I won’t lie. But opposite the hotel, right across the road, there is a fruit shop, where everything is for a penny. A kilo of strawberries or cherries for my 3 dollars, fresh! Drinks like everywhere beer, vodka, gin, whiskey, well, local brandy. The wine is red and white, by the way, not from bags, but all wine from bottles. All drinks are local, so not to your taste. We drank, nothing, it can be much worse. I drank gin and whiskey, my wife wine, raki, and beer, in my opinion Heineken is written on kegs, but as usual in hotels, almost non-alcoholic. There are three bars in the hotel, one in the lobby, one by the pools and on the beach. In principle, there was always enough for everyone. They work up to 24 hours.
The hotel staff is good. Everyone smiles and tries to help in everything. The maids are not intrusive, there is a sign do not disturb, they will not enter. Clean well and bed and towels almost every day change. Several times they left a tip, some kind of garbage was wrapped up from the sheets))). The bartenders are normal, almost everyone understands, they pour as much as you ask, cigarettes are sometimes knocked down; ).

Animation. She is. And we liked it. In the morning, all sorts of fun-gymnastics by the pool, volleyball on the beach. In the evening, the show with guest artists is very interesting. And dances and magicians and acrobats, we always went very interestingly. The show was in the amphitheater, but several times (on the Turkish night) it was on the pool area. There are no discos in the hotel, they take you to Alanya for $ 10, my son went several times, I liked it, only drinks there at wild prices, get drunk at the hotel))). The animators became friends with us almost on the first day and throughout the rest they communicated and entertained as best they could. Animation chief Ziko speaks several languages ​ ​ well, Russian is excellent. Yunus, Sasha, Johnny, girl Mary in the mini club are all great, thank you very much! We got on the Day of Russia, so the animators at the evening show specially downloaded the anthem of the Russian Federation and at the end congratulated us on the holiday and turned on our anthem. Guess from three times who defiantly left the show; )))? On the day of departure, the whole team came to see us off, nice!
Tourists. 60 percent are Russian tourists. Lots from Ukraine. A lot from Poland. Well, little things from other countries. There were practically no strong alkanoids, so there was one person, allegedly from Moscow, who wanted to destroy all stocks of alcohol. I lived in a hotel for more than twenty days, and in the end, the lid completely went! All bruised, with some kind of column with Mouzon V. Leontiev, in short Tagil. But thank God there were a couple of them, and they were quickly calmed down.
We did not take excursions because we have been going to Turkey for more than 10 years, everyone has already looked. But essno is cheaper to take not from hotel guides, but near the hotel. Our friends took a pirate yacht with a small kid, they liked it. From two adults I think $ 30 without alcohol with lunch. Children up to six years old are free of charge)))
Epilogue. In general, we really liked the hotel. All our wishes were met, the goals of the trip were achieved. We rested, sunbathed, went to Turkish friends in Alanya (by the way, on a minibus to Alanya the price is 2 euros or three lira, it is cheaper in lira, it takes 15 minutes to go). The price-quality ratio, taking into account the fact that for three adults, for almost two weeks, we cost about $ 1.500 is quite good.
As a result, I really didn’t want to leave, although usually around the 10-12th day we start to miss home. This is a sign of a very good hotel for us. Thanks to everyone, staff, animators, travel agency for a wonderful holiday. We recommend the hotel!!!
All the best!! !
