Traveled with Anex-tour 3 hours. The room is cleaned and towels are changed every three days. But we noticed that one maid was lazy, and the second was smart, always added shampoos, even rolled towels with flowers for us. As a result, they brought home a whole bunch of shampoos. At the reception you should be given cards for beach towels. They can forget. Ask immediately, so as not to return, because the hotel is on the mountain. We immediately took everything we needed from the room with us and went out for half a day so as not to return.
Rested 3 + 1 child. Our number was 523, near the reception. There were 3 chairs and 3 glasses in the room upon check in, the handle on the balcony was broken. When buying a ticket, we indicated the family room 2 + 2, but in the end 3 + 1. On the trail. day everyone told Masha - she solved all the questions. Added for 4 persons and the handle was repaired. Of all the nuances, these were the only ones. The room in front of us was empty, it was cleaned a long time ago, the water in the shower glass was first rusty. Then it was clean.
They offered to change the room for FREE, showed it to us. But ours looked better. We stayed. Refrigerator and air conditioner work properly. At first it seemed to us that the air conditioner was rather weak, but we just had to wait for it to cool the room, it had been unused for a long time. When you leave the room, the electrics turn off (as in all hotels), but the coolness in the room always remained.

The food is excellent, varied. But if you are a gourmet, then pay more and choose another hotel. Until 25.08, the hotel was 70% occupied, there were empty places everywhere. But after the 25th, prices dropped and the influx of tourists began. We felt. There were plenty of places for breakfast and lunch. Yes, there were small queues, people 4-5 near the most popular dishes. For us, this was not a problem at all. But for dinner, everyone came to the main restaurant, so there were not enough places for everyone. We made a conclusion and came either exactly at 19.00 or for 30-40 minutes. later. There is enough food for everyone. You won't be left hungry. Wine is poured either into glass goblets or plastic goblets. We don't care.
On the beach, they serve delicious fast food at the bar. You can go to the main restaurant and not go for lunch. Serve only those who sit at the table. For all the time only 1 time (not for long) waited for a free table. Even the juices taste better downstairs.
Alcohol around the clock, tasty beer, like Zhigulevskoe, they pour a lot. Fridays are Turkish days. In the main restaurant, a festive serving, Turkish vodka is poured at the entrance (it's normal to pour it, to whom it is important).
Animation. For adults, there is a constant party near the pool, foam parties and water aerobics on the beach. In the evening foam party at the bar on the beach $7. Children in the amphitheater children's disco with Nastya. She shows the movements, the children repeat. The songs are the same, the baby is delighted. From 22.00 competitions for adults. We got on Mr. Senza - laughed heartily.
Don't trust Anex's representative Anton. On the phrase "there is nothing to see around the hotel", there is only prom. zone". Nearby there is the town of Konakli and Alanya itself. 5-10 minutes by bus. We needed a pharmacy, we asked local sellers in shops. Leave the hotel, pass ours, past Kemal Bay and some Blue, there will be a pedestrian tunnel under by road. Cross it to the other side and wait for a bus near the souvenir shop, travel $ 1. Every 10 minutes it goes to the city of Konakli. Landmark - Time citi shopping center. Taxi $ 6 or 8. Go back to the Kemal bey stop.
On the other side of Alanya. People went and rode there on the lift up the mountain. You can see the Red Tower fortress.
We took a tour of the Treasures of Alanya. I liked it very much. I recommend. Friends took the "Tavria Mountains", they said complete garbage.

The hotel is located on a mountain, very beautiful, just gorgeous views. In the main restaurant, the very first places are taken along the cliff above the sea itself. But if you go to the children's corner, then there are tables with orange chairs behind it, there is a mountain view and almost always free. We read the reviews and thought that for us 210 steps are nonsense. On the 4th day, calf pain made me look for alternatives. So, it's a quick way to get to the beach. Near the reception, where the buses turn around, there are SEVERAL steps on the white stairs and a path, 3 minutes and you are on the beach. The second way is to take a picture of the shuttle schedule at the reception or in the locker room on the beach. We returned from the beach straight in wet swimsuits only on the shuttle. Fabulous! They even drove closer to the restaurant / pool. From the beach up, the first stop is the reception, then the Hamam (next to the restaurant and swimming pool). Then the shuttle goes up.
The hotel has a lot of vacationers from Turkey itself, the music is more often Turkish than English. and Russian. 40% Turks, 40% Ukrainians and the remaining 10% other countries. How did you know? In the evening, at the animation, the host makes a kind of roll call.
The beach is clean, small pebbles, even children walked barefoot. There are broken sunbeds, we saw a couple. Places were taken in advance or even in the evening. There are always places for 3-4 lines. Beach towels are changed and issued only from 17 to 19.00 near the hammam. We checked in around 19.00, missed the checkout. Towels can be changed as needed. Garbage on the beach and near the pool is the work of the vacationers themselves. They only clean the tables, so leave your empty glasses at least on the tables, and not near the edge of the pool. There are a lot of trash cans on the beach.
Take diving masks to the beach, there is a very beautiful bottom, after 4-5 meters there is a small crevice at the bottom, large and small fish swim there.
In short, conclusion. This hotel is ECONOMY 5 *, and this is evident from the price. If you want something cool, choose another. Humid warm air and aroma of pines will give you a cool recovery. I wish you all a wonderful holiday.
