Hello! We rested at the hotel in May 2009. I will only say good things about the hotel. I liked it very much, I would like to come back again. Last year we rested in another hotel, also 4 *, compared to this one, it's just super.
If we talk about the shortcomings, then in my opinion there are two of them. The first is a small beach, despite the fact that it is 3 levels, if there are many vacationers, then there will not be enough sun loungers. But we didn’t have such problems, in May there are not very many vacationers. There is a bar on the beach where you can get beer, cola, sprite, tea, coffee. The beach is constantly being cleaned.
The second drawback is that the hotel is not in the city, but between Alanya and Konakli. But in principle, this is not so important, transport runs often. To Alanya - 2 dollars, to Konakli - 1 dollar. You go out onto the road, stop - and you will be taken to the city center. You can get to Alanya for free, from the leather store, which is located on the 1st floor of the hotel. For those who do not like to shop, this is not a disadvantage. Many vacationers, on the contrary, like the fact that the hotel is not in the city, but in a quiet and peaceful place.

The hotel rooms are comfortable, all with sea views. Every day cleaning, several times there was a change of towels and linen. Mini-bar and safe in the room for a fee.
The hotel staff is polite, speaks Russian.
The food is varied. There was always meat, fish, a variety of salads, hot dishes. From fruits - strawberries, oranges, apples, medlar. Many different desserts: cakes, pastries, cookies, baklava.
Alcoholic drinks of local production, though divorced, but this is in all hotels. For many vacationers who wanted to relax, this was not a problem. Some managed to get drunk before dinner.
Animation is normal. In the evenings, mini-discos and competitions were held. For parents with children - animators are just a godsend. The animators played with the children during the day, and the parents calmly rested on the sea.

We went on an excursion to Demre-Mira-Kekovo. But not from the hotel, but from Bugra Tour, which is located near the hotel. We were very sorry that we did not listen to the hotel guide and did not go from the hotel. But in Bugra such an excursion cost 40 dollars, and with a hotel guide - 70 dollars. We left at 4 o'clock in the morning, until 6 o'clock we collected tourists from hotels. The group was mixed with the Germans, though there were 2 guides. The bus was small, the air conditioning practically did not work, it was stuffy. Our guide until 9 o'clock just slept. She didn’t say anything, then she told a little story. In Mir gave 40 minutes. for sightseeing, but first took me to the icon store, where we spent almost 30 minutes. for shopping. I didn't want to go on a tour, go yourself. I didn’t go to St. Nicholas Church at all, as it turned out she didn’t have a license to conduct excursions, I had to join groups of tourists with guides there in order to learn at least something. In Kekovo on a yacht I gave 15 minutes. to swim in the sea. Without even letting it dry, everyone went back. On the way, she told a couple of jokes and said that she was very tired and her voice sat down (the poor thing was so overworked : )). We were not happy with the tour, it’s better to pay extra money and go normally than the way we went. So the hotel guide is still worth listening to. And in general, this is an unsuccessful choice of excursion if you go from Alanya, very far away. You don't spend as much time on sightseeing as you would on a bus ride.
Well, in general, apart from the excursions, we are very satisfied with the rest and did not want to leave.
