This hotel was a replacement as the hotel we booked did not renew the certificate from COVID - we never once regretted such a replacement.
We arrived at 9:00. Upon arrival, we were immediately offered breakfast. After breakfast we settled in a bungalow near the sea. Nobody demanded money for an early settlement, although we had a settlement from 14-00.
Location:
The hotel is located on the edge of a small peninsula. On the one hand, it goes out to the sea, on the other hand, to the bay of the bay. The territory is large, well-groomed. There are two buildings on the territory (A and B) and a row of bungalows along the sea, a pool near each building, a bar near each pool. Each bungalow has a small lawn with sun loungers at the entrance. A fairly large grove of some trees grows between the buildings, but there is no entrance there. Near building A, next to the pool there is a garden where a children's mini-club, a gym, a playground and a trampoline are located.
Rooms:

They lived in a bungalow. The room is spacious. The room has a wardrobe, a double bed, an additional single bed, a mini-bar, a table, an armchair, a mirror, air conditioning, a safe for a child. In front of each bungalow there is a small lawn with a couple of chairs and a table, and a couple of sun loungers. It is separated from neighboring bungalows by a hedge of flowers, bushes, etc. The bathroom has a shower and a hair dryer. In the first bungalow where we were settled, the air conditioner did not work - when it could not be repaired, we were moved to another bungalow without any problems. They helped move all the things, moved the baby bed - it all took less than an hour. In the second bungalow, all the equipment worked, everything was in order. The maids clean every day and clean well - the bed was changed regularly, towels were changed every day. All linen and towels are in adequate condition - clean, white, completely new and not washed. Every day a large bottle of water is placed in the mini-bar, once (at check-in) the mini-bar is filled with soft drinks (Cola, Fanta, etc. ).
Restaurant, food:
Each building has its own restaurant, but during our stay the restaurant in block B did not work due to restrictions on the number of tourists in the hotel - so we went to the restaurant in block A.
The food is delicious, varied, you can always take something to your liking. Everything that is cooked in the restaurant is listed for a very long time, I will say in general:
always a large selection of meat (fried, stewed, grilled), cheeses, salads, side dishes, fish, fruits (melons, watermelons, peaches, nectarines, apples, grapes), delicious desserts and cakes (probably didn’t even have time to try everything), pancakes. For lunch and dinner there is always some kind of soup, every day is different. During the day at the pool bar - ice cream.
Drinks: In the restaurant and pool bar, coffee is poured from a machine, but quite good. In the lobby bar you can also drink Turkish coffee with a cake. Various teas. In the bar you can always take water, soda, alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails, peanuts. Cocktails are very tasty, quite diverse, you can choose from the menu, or you can order from the ingredients to your taste. Ephesus beer is light and refreshing in the heat.
In general, the food was very pleasant, including the child. Ate with pleasure.
Beach:
First line. Since the hotel is located on a peninsula, there are three private beaches - one directly into the sea and two in the bay. On the beaches there are umbrellas, sun loungers and mattresses.
The main beach is in the bay: the beach is sandy, the entrance is gentle, the bottom is sandy, there is a pontoon in the sea. Since the beach is located in a bay, the sea is always calm behind the breakwater. Ideal for small children and people who are not good swimmers. Near the beach there is a water park with three slides. There were never any problems with free sun loungers, but I repeat, there was a limit on the number of tourists and the hotel was not completely filled.

The second beach in the bay is the same as the main one, only smaller. We never got to it.
The third beach goes out to sea. The beach is sandy, but stones immediately begin in the water, so aquashoes are needed there. There may be waves. On the beach are umbrellas, sun loungers and mattresses. The beach is located near block B. Since this building was practically uninhabited, the beach was always free. Near the beach there is a pier for walking, but there is no entrance to the water from it. Also near the beach is a water park with slides.
Beach towels were issued near the main pool on the security of cards that were issued upon check-in. There were always enough towels for everyone.
Animation:
The hotel has a great animation team.
There was a mini-club for children. There were various activities both in the mini-club itself and in the fresh air. Of the interesting, I remember the competition for the best sand castle, there was a pirate quest to find treasures throughout the hotel, culinary (pizza was cooked). Evening children's disco.
For adults - darts, water aerobics in the pool, volleyball, table tennis, yoga. Every evening there was some interesting show program: there were several concerts, acrobats, a dance show. Every evening something new.
We went on a sightseeing tour of Alanya - an interesting tour, but very rich - we drove to a height of 800 m above the sea, were at a wine tasting, had lunch in a gorge between mountains on a river, descended into a cave in the mountains, in Alanya itself were in a fortress and swam in sea ​ ​ on a pirate ship around the fortress and back.
We were very pleased with the rest - an excellent hotel, pleasant and helpful staff, delicious food, a very beautiful place, a wonderful team of animators. I can safely recommend the hotel for families with children.
