I liked the hotel itself, it is located in a very beautiful place on a cliff, the view of the sea and Alanya is just super. But we must understand from the very beginning that we will have to constantly walk uphill, on the second day our legs hurt, but then we got used to walking up and down. It didn't bother us much.
We lived in a bungalow overlooking the sea, but settled us there for $ 50, and the guide from Anex Tour immediately began to offer us to pay when we settled, because otherwise we could be settled very badly, he motivated this by the fact that the hotel overcrowded and there are always tourists willing to pay for the settlement. We didn’t like it, because we had paid a ticket to the bungalow, we were indignant, sat at the reception for 2 hours, but we were never settled without money.
The water park, of course, was very good, it is located in the pines, you can easily find a shade, but who likes the sun, 6 slides for adults, a separate pool with children's slides, there is also rafting on the territory of the hotel, it also deserves special praise, we liked it, only there were few boats for rafting, you had to constantly stand in line, sometimes waiting for a boat for 30 minutes.

The main pool has a magnificent view of the sea, animators are constantly entertaining near it, it’s really not bad, but you can easily burn out, there is simply no shade there, except for umbrellas.
The food, in our opinion, was monotonous and similar to canteen food, I read a lot of reviews where people write that there was an insanely delicious sweet table, so we tried very hard to find delicious sweets there, but it simply wasn’t there, there were many types of sweets, but We didn't find anything tasty. Maybe we compared with other hotels in which we rested before, but we did not like the food.
Separately, I want to say about tm that the hotel was really crowded with tourists. We met people there who spent two nights in another hotel, in Alanya 3 *, because. there were no places for settlement, and this concerned only Russians, Germans, etc. places were right away. We also could not always find a place in the main restaurant, but there were 7 of us, if you want to eat together, then there is a place. It was also felt that the service staff did not always cope with such a large number of vacationers, they really ate more than once on dirty tablecloths, ran for forks and napkins themselves. But if you tip, then you will receive attention and respect. Moreover, everyone wants a tip there, both in the restaurant and in the bar and at the reception.
That's my impression, and you decide.
