In addition to reviewing the hotel, I would like to describe some of the nuances of our trip. We went to rest with a family - two adults and 2 children (7 and 9 years old).
I'll start with Borispol. Children were allowed to carry water, sweets, cookies. You can carry food without pronounced odors. That is, cutlets are not allowed, but cookies, apples, sandwiches are allowed. Duty Free in Boryspil is cheaper than at Antalya Airport. So if you plan to bring something back, then take it better in Boryspil.

Transfer. Since the hotel is located 110 km from the airport, we decided to book a private transfer. Booked through the hotel. On the hotel page on Facebook, through the messenger, they contacted the administrator and ordered a transfer for us. The administrator's name is Elena, a very nice girl, she will always help, she will tell you everything. Transfer from the airport to the hotel cost us 40 euros.

At the airport, we were met by a representative of the transport company with a sign on which my name was indicated and led to a Mercedes minivan. And we were taken to the hotel in an hour and a half. We also took a private transfer to the airport. We approached Elena and she arranged everything.

Number. We paid for a family room. We immediately paid extra for a sea view. Although it was necessary, probably, first to see what would be offered to us without surcharges. But the children were tired from the road (the plane was delayed for 1.5 hours) and they wanted to quickly settle in. We were given a room on the 5th floor. The view is chic. Sound of the sea. But the room is not big at all. In the family room, everything is as in the photo of the hotel: a double bed and a bunk bed, a huge closet and a huge chest of drawers, a TV. Safe is paid. We didn't take. Nothing was missing, our things were not rummaged. The repair is tired, it would be necessary to update both the walls and furniture. But we did not pay attention to this, we came to rest.
The balcony is not large, a table + 2 chairs and a clothes dryer. And an air conditioner unit. And if you decide to sit on the balcony with the air conditioner on, then you will not succeed, because the unit is very hot. The bathroom is large, water does not flow out of the shower, liquid soap and some kind of gel 2 in 1 in the shower itself. Fan is working. The towels are clean.

Territory. The territory is not big, but very green. Palm trees are growing, hibiscus is blooming. On the territory there is a pool 16+, where children do not come. And there you can relax in peace and quiet. The main pool where animation takes place, a pool for kids with slides, a pool for older children (120cm deep) with slides. And a pool with slides for adults. Pools are open from 7.00 to 20.00. Slides worked on time, 2 times a day. Each pool has a lifeguard. Behind the large slides there are additional sun loungers, and if you don’t have enough, you can take it yourself.

Beach.

There is a pier, it is convenient to go down and up from it. The entrance is better on the right if you are facing the pier. The bottom is pebbles, we did without safety shoes. There were enough sun loungers for everyone. The beach is clean. Sun loungers are disinfected every evening. The lifeguard until 18.00 really watches the vacationers, especially the children. One evening we walked to the beach and saw a huge sea turtle that came to the beach to lay its eggs))) The sea is very warm, but a little stormy. But swimming was ok. Take your own beach towels.

Food. The food is ok, you can always find something to eat. Breakfast, lunch and dinner in a restaurant, on the street - pancakes and scrambled eggs for breakfast and grilled for dinner (meatballs with grilled rice, see if they are fried inside). During breakfast, you can buy fresh orange juice, a glass of about 400 ml for $ 1. Whenever they came, there was always a choice of food. Beach bar - drinks, fast food, vegetables and fruits. Pool bar - drinks. From 16.00 to 17.00.
00 you can take pastries in a tent near the restaurant. In the same place during dinner they give ice cream, not every day.

Tours. We planned one excursion - a sea sightseeing tour of Alanya on a pirate ship. They didn’t take the guide, the prices are space. By the way, the guide from the Anex tour is very arrogant and persistent. It feels like he forgot what is included in his duties as a hotel guide, the main thing is to sell excursions. But we fought back and never saw him again. The tour was taken at the agency across the road from the hotel (we left the hotel, to the right and along the overpass, go down and the agency is right in front of you). We liked it, we left at 9.00 and arrived at the hotel around 16.30. The walk is approximately 5 hours.

Shopping. Been to Colins and LC Waikiki. It's better to pay by card. In the same shopping center there is a small market where you can take tea, coffee, halva for gifts at normal prices. The hotel has a shop, 1 dollar = 1 euro. Change is always given. The kids ran for ice cream. Prices are about the same as in other stores.

Conclusion
. The hotel is suitable for families with children. The youth will be bored. Until 22 children's program, from 22.00 to 23.00 show program and that's it, silence.
Recommend. Would come again)))
