Rested with his beloved wife in mid-June. We were in the top five in Turkey many times, so there is something to compare with. I chose the hotel based on the reviews on the websites.
We arrived in Antalya at 16.00. By the time we got there it was 7pm. We were given a room on the 6th floor with a sea view. But it seemed a little hot there, so for a fee we moved to the 2nd one overlooking the pools, which we never regretted.
Now about the pros and cons of the hotel.
I didn't see any cons.
Pros:
1 I met and saw off the operator Coral. Everything is on the level. For which they respect.

2 Territory, although small 20 thousand m (usually rested 70-100 tons. ), but ideally thought out down to the smallest detail. Everything is conveniently nearby. Lots of greenery and flowers. Perfect cleanliness in the area. They clean the whole day starting at 6 am with watering the lawns and paths and ending at 2 am with the maintenance of the pools. 3 pools for adults, one for children, one warm. 3 slides. They work from 10-12.14-16. I got a lot of pleasure. The water does not smell like chlorine like in other hotels. 5 bars 4 restaurants.
The beach on the first line is clean. We always grab sun loungers, although many Russians take places early in the morning, and arrive at 15.00. I walked along the beach with my wife, I didn’t see it better within a radius of a kilometer. The entrance to the sea or from the pier or from the beach is convenient. The water is 5 meters clear. And in the evening flocks of fish come, which are fed every day. Paradise for children. Everywhere playgrounds.
3 Meals for 5. Choice for every taste. Lots of meat, fish, fruits, sweets. On the beach, a Turk bakes local cakes. At 16.30 afternoon snack with delicious ice cream, pancakes, cakes. Juices are not yupi. Airan is great. Local alcoholic drinks: wine, crayfish, gin, beer are very good. Imported drinks are chargeable, about which the bartenders will immediately warn you.
4 The hotel staff are polite, attentive, tidy, with a smile on their face even at the reception desk. The rooms are clean. I've seen a lot of recent renovations. Leave a tip to the cleaning lady 1-2dol. In the restaurant, almost every table has a waiter with a smile on his face. The attitude towards Russians, Germans and other peoples is the same.
The hotel has a relaxed festive atmosphere. Half of the guests are with children. It seems that the owner of the hotel does not save on anything.

5 Animation liked. From 10.00 volleyball, darts, boccia, aerobics, aqua aerobics, oriental dances, water polo and much more. for 12 days there were invited groups 3 times, on Sunday live music (for 40), the rest of the days the group of animators was staged at a professional level. At 23.30 disco. We've only been once, as we're usually asleep at that time. Went to the gym. Be sure to visit the spa. I don’t like it myself, but my friends were delighted, especially from Thai massage. We didn’t go on excursions once, because. we had already seen enough in Turkey, so we did not want to miss a day of rest. On the beach there is a water sports tent where you can buy a boat trip to the Manavgat River or to Alanya for 25 dollars. for all day.
6 Contingent: 35% Russians, 25% Germans, 20% Turks, other Slovaks, Poles, Dutch, Serbs, Baltics, Ukrainians saw only one couple.
This is my first time writing a review, so don't be harsh.
I recommend this hotel to everyone, especially with children. Have a nice rest.
