It took more than 1.5 hours to get from the airport with a stop at other hotels, the hotel is in the mountains, near the sea, the first line, but steep descents and ascents. The lobby looks simple but tidy and everything is clean. We arrived at the hotel at about 3 pm, settled in 10 minutes, Wi-Fi for a fee of 130 lira for 7 days, a safe with a key for a fee of 7 days 130 lira. At the hryvnia exchange rate, approximately multiply by 3.2. This is one of the downsides. Another of the minuses is unkempt lawns, a gardener is very needed, in some places along the way to the sea, weeds grow. Another minus, but this is nature - mountain descents and ascents, the territory is rather big, if you walk in the heat (and the transfer is not always convenient to wait), you get tired. Climbing from the sea 200 steps. People with heart and musculoskeletal problems may not be very comfortable in this hotel. It looks like Yalta. And the territory smells of juniper.
Food - solid 4, even closer to 5, but no seafood (only mackerel and grilled trout). There is everything, dishes for every taste, many types of meat, cheeses, fruits (melons, watermelons, oranges, physalis, pears, apples, cherry plums), vegetables, olives are delicious, breakfast is standard, as in all of Turkey (in Turkey 3 times ), before that there were more expensive hotels, but this one did not disappoint in terms of food. There are many desserts and they are different. There is something on the grill all the time. Alcohol is bad. Only gin and tonic or tequila (watered down, locally produced) more or less. Gozlem cakes with different fillings are prepared from 11 to 16-30 near the children's pool and near the main pool bar. Separately, I would like to note the cafe near the sea and their fast food. Been to many countries and tried fast food everywhere, never liked it, but this hotel has great burgers. In addition, they cook pasta, fries, green salad, pizza. If you wish, you can not go to the hotel for lunch. Food 24/7.
Animation. For adults, none. There are crowds of animators, but they are of no use. Offered time on the beach aqua aerobics. There are darts and boccia, but they are so boring. . . but the children are entertained, and children's games, and face painting. Shows do not wait, they are not. Only there is a children's disco in the evening with the same aramzamzam and miss-mister hotel, that's all. Like a pandemic. Well, yes, but they will take you to a paid adult disco. The hotel consists of numerous bungalows, bigger and smaller, with good and not so good location. We had a good one, not far from the sea and from the main places of stay - a swimming pool, a restaurant, try not to take a room very close, you just won’t rest, the music is turned on loudly and for a long time, often Turkish, sometimes karaoke was annoying in the evenings.

The room was a family of 45 sq. m with a gorgeous view of the sea and mountains. Huge balcony, two rooms and a corridor. This is not 5 *, of course, the room does not have a bath, but a shower. There is a lot of furniture, although not new, but the room looks more or less ok. The towels are snow-white, there are no cockroaches and other evil spirits, it's already good. Conder worked, but there was no refrigerator, and there was no telephone, and there were no channels on the TV, TV = furniture. We didn't need him. If only to see local music videos. Because of this, they did not contact the reception. 1 double bed in 1 room, sofa and single bed in the second.
The beach is good, the bay, the sea is calm, good sunset, small pebbles with sand, comfortable. Sun loungers are old, but beach towels are issued on cards, without deposits, there are a lot of umbrellas, the whole beach is in the shade. Both restaurants - both on the beach and the main one - overlooking the sea, a very nice bonus. Toilets on the beach and in the restaurant - after repair, and near the children's pool - in need of repair. There are three children's slides. They didn’t go to the hammam, it seems to be free, but they actively promote massage for $ 25. They didn’t go. They took a ticket at the last moment with a flight from Kharkov, they chose the money from what they had. True, 1 day was taken away from us due to an unsuccessful flight, but this was expected.
In general - a good hotel.
P. S. Not for the hotel - never change money at the Antalya airport (there are countries where the exchange rate at the airport is more profitable or the same as in the city, but not in Turkey !!!!!! ), because from 100 dollars you will have 80 left when exchanging for lira, in the city the rate is 8, at the airport 6.5. They lie about the commission if you change less than $ 100. In general, they accept dollars everywhere, it is more profitable to pay with lira only for travel in transport. You may or may not change money. You will lose more on exchange rate differences (and on the reverse exchange in Ukraine).
