We chose a hotel for a long time, but according to the reviews and parameters, Granada seemed to have no equal. So let's go here.
In order. We were not lucky enough to fly Coral, which has turned into an "Odeon" tour operator in Turkey. Odeon employees, this is a separate story - we have never met more tongue-tied, useless, incompetent greeters. In addition, they behave arrogantly towards tourists, squeezing out every word as if they are lending money.
A girl named Olya, who drove us to the hotel (tongue piercing, birthmark on her arm and dyed hair), offered to thank her with cigarettes, which, in my opinion, put the whole bus in an awkward position. It was unpleasant to listen to obsessive stories about where to buy sweets and how to behave, after all, we are all adults, not downs.
Then there was a hotel guide, named Mehmed, who had all the stories about excursions reduced only to the phrase - "It's beautiful there! "
Where to eat outside the hotel, where to go here? How to get to another hotel 30 km from here (I had a sister there), the answers to all this were like - there is nowhere to go, buy everything you need at the hotel, take a taxi to another hotel (2 miles).
We had the misfortune to buy 2 excursions - to the dolphinarium and on a yacht with fishing and a picnic. We went to the dolphinarium yesterday, we were supposed to go to the yacht today. Excursion on the yacht passed yesterday, having received at least 50% of the cost. The fact is that the weather today is storm, rain, +19. Not a single person on the street, cold, overcast, I doubt that yachting people get much pleasure. The Dolphinarium is a crush, embittered guards who tear out cans of fanta and all kinds of drinks from small children, the performance lasts 40 minutes, instead of the promised hour, but this would be nothing if it were not for the "wonderful organization" of the Odeon. Again, the boorish guide Arthur, who is even too lazy to mention, if you're lucky, get to know yourself.
About the hotel itself.
Check-in starts from 12 and from 14! Pay attention to "From 14", that is, you should not count on the fact that you will be settled or are obliged to settle BEFORE 14.
We were brought to the hotel at 11:30 am, the flight was at 6 am from Moscow, at 13:00 we were already in the room. Stories about how happy everyone here is, well, I beg you! At least we were settled, the rest raged until 16 o'clock at the counter.
As for the number, carefully check with the operator where you will be accommodated, if this is important to you, you are unlikely to be able to resolve the issue here. We had a Deluxe, with a jacuzzi, as a result, a deluxe, but without a jacuzzi, although we figured out this issue, but oh well, we didn’t want to quarrel, we didn’t want to find out, we asked the reception a couple of times, they also languidly promised to find out something, and on this issue was closed.
Do not spare the money and take a room with a sea view, because, of course, there are views of the road, the rooms of the botanist and the first floors, on which it is generally not possible to live because of people scurrying around the clock.
We have a wonderful view, the room is nice, 2 rooms, sea view, but there is one thing. The room has a balcony overlooking the disco, where, like clockwork, they start yelling and laughing like that from 12 to 2 at night (they pour it for free until 2, so the fun drops sharply after 2), which, let alone sleep, is impossible to stay in the room. Advice - earplugs will not interfere, because why not fight with drunk people?
Who writes reviews about what kind of paradise on earth is here is a mystery. Yes, the hotel is GOOD, but nothing more. I can’t say that we don’t like it terribly, we like it, it’s cozy, comfortable, the staff is very polite, smiling and pleasant. There are just little things that annoy.
Many people are interested in food. If you have been to Turkey, then you know what kind of food. They don’t argue about tastes, it’s gorgeous for someone, but someone is dying of hunger, this is always the case.
In my opinion, it is possible, rather from hopelessness. I will list what to eat, decide for yourself: breakfasts - muesli, jams, buns, scrambled eggs and omelettes of all kinds, cuts, sausage, sausages, potatoes, vegetables. Lunch - soups (2), potatoes, spaghetti, fried herring, vegetables, salads, chicken, lamb, etc.
For breakfast - orange juice for free. So - tea, coffee, instant drinks like UPI. Cola, sprite, wine at the bar.
There are ultrasonic insect repellers on the open veranda, the sound is terrible, as if your teeth are being drilled. You can of course sit down to the sea, you can hear less there.
Grill on the street, barbecue, there is no such thing. From fruits, strictly watermelons, oranges and apples. Everything.
Snack bars and others offer salads, potatoes and meat-soy snacks, shawarma, pies, etc.
Many drink cocktails endlessly - yes, everything is free, there is a cocktail card, with names that, however, have nothing to do with reality, since everything is made on the basis of vodka. But again, I repeat, you can drink everything, you can eat, and it’s not necessary to slander food and drink in the presence of workers and loudly tell the bartender how he doesn’t know how to make cocktails. There are a lot of uneducated people here. Who are drunken wandering around and yelling obscenities at night, commenting on the performances of animators with their "amazing" jokes, being rude in general.
What else. The weather was good for 3 days, yesterday it was overcast, and today it is raining and cold.
About the shops. If you leave the hotel and go to the left, then after 1 km there will be a market where you can buy strawberries ($ 3 kg), melons, all kinds of consumer goods.
If you leave the room and go to the right, then after 200m there will be a transition, a small shop in which they sell for lira (you can pay in dollars), 1.5 lira -1 dollar, at least at this rate they count in the store. pink jam - 3.5 lira, Pringles chips - 6, well, etc. There is nowhere else to go on foot. card call-4 dollars somewhere 5 min. from the hotel-5-7 ye minute.
In the hotel shop, prices in euros, for example, the lousiest slates are 15 euros. Well, it's normal, it's at the hotel. There is no one there for that.
Take toothpaste, it is not in the room, to buy, you need to go outside.
children's slides are open from 10-12, from 14 to 17, the slides are good, the children like it. Unheated pools, when there was sun, the water was very comfortable, you can also swim in the sea, but no one swims for some reason.
Catamaran - 10 hours, windsurfing - 20.
Baths are open from 9 to 19, there is a heated pool, part of which goes outside, a very small part, suitable for mothers with small ones, only there the depth is 140 cm, you need a circle or something.
the territory is well-groomed, large. When the season comes, there will really be nowhere to lie down, every morning we see how already at 7 in the morning, our compatriots from the night "marked" all the good places - beds, couches, with their blue towels.
The Internet seems to be there, but really, it didn’t exist at all for 2 days, the rest - dialup was faster in the 90s, the issue can’t be solved for money, there’s no charge, everyone is sitting on the same branch, overloading, the network is falling. You can check your mail only at breakfast, lunch and dinner, when everyone is eating. and then if it works. It infuriates that you can’t buy a normal connection, so if you planned to combine it with work, forget it.
And yet, in no case do not buy nerd villas or whatever they are called. In fact, these are 3 houses - a passage courtyard, bordering on an amphitheater and a disco - noise and drunken screams are provided to you from 7pm to 4am. At the same time, all these villas are visible at a glance and there is no question of any solitude.
If you have any questions, ask, maybe I forgot something.
Again, I’ll make a reservation, I didn’t want to offend anyone, this is MY personal opinion, which may not coincide with the rest, but as far as I understand, one can write here not only laudatory odes. I’m not one of those who whine about an unwashed fork, in fact, everything is not so scary, I just gave the facts and what I see for myself, the hotel is not bad, the staff is wonderful, but of course it’s boring, and what else can you expect from Turkey, we personally went just fly not far and ride the child on the roller coaster by the sea.
Yes, for children and everyone who wants ice cream all day, cotton candy from 4 to 5.
