We rested in late June - early July 2017 with a family (2 adults and 2 children - 3 years old).
1. Hotel. The territory is beautiful, houses in flowers, bushes, benches, they brought home a lot of juicy photos as a keepsake : ) The rooms are simple, in need of repair. The plumbing hasn't changed in a long time. The bed is clean but not new. We were settled on the 4th floor, it was impossible to breathe there, especially when the wind blows into the sea, the wind is already hot, all things immediately become dry in one moment, and when the wind blows from the sea, humidity, things dry for 2 days. Thanks to the air conditioner, you can live : )) Our family is not spoiled, so the simplicity of the room did not upset us at all. Since there are 4 of us, we were worried that, as in the photo, there would be only one double bed and one small single bed. But to our surprise and joy, the room had two beds for children, and for us one double.
2. Room cleaning. The cleaners are very friendly and nice. The room was cleaned every day. Our youngest child sleeps during the day, they put up a "do not disturb" sign, and still in the evening while we were at the sea, they took the trash and wiped the floor. They left a tip once, but the cleaning girls didn't take it. Apparently, they are banned or ashamed . .

3. Internet. WiFi is available only at the reception. A few days later we saw that they have a $10 service for a 3G modem, but we didn't use it.
4. Sea. Our room was closer to the reception, It's a bit far to stomp to the sea, it seems to be the first line, but there are a lot of houses, we got jogging along the shade. At the reception there is a "carriage for rent" service for $ 3 per day, so as not to carry a baby in your arms. The sea is awesome!!!! ! Here we give the sea 5 points! Clean, transparent, warm, chic! The beach is endless, at first there is sand, then small pebbles, it hurts a little to walk, but our children drove, and this is very useful, especially for flat feet. Free foot massage) There are some places where it is unrealistic to enter the sea due to sharp stones at the bottom, but the beach is large and long, you can find the best place to relax. Our children are delighted with the sea, they did not climb out of it, they were in the pool only once in 9 days : )
5. Bar. Not far from the sea, there are sun loungers, umbrellas. Next to a bar with endless drinks until 10pm. Ephesian beer or Pepsi, etc. river. From 11 you can have a snack with salads, cakes. hamburgers, french fries.
There is a coffee machine with coffee, cocoa.
6. Food. The food is very tasty and varied. Lots of vegetables, fruits. Separate respect to the hard-working waiters, who care so much about vacationers in the heat, joke with children, smile. The dishes are very tasty, grilled vegetables, fish is just super! Turkish pastries for every taste. In a word. bring home a couple of extra pounds, even if you eat PP)))
7. There is a photographer on the territory. One photo 4 dollars, wholesale discounts. He took us gorgeous pictures on the territory, on the sea, at sunset. Recommended!!!
8. Animation. There are a lot of interesting things for children, there is a whole program according to the schedule: drawing, games, dancing. In the evenings, mini disco, and from 10 pm for adult shows, we got to Turkish nights, tricks, dances, fire shows.
9. Mostly residents of Turkey, Russia, Ukraine rest in this hotel.

10. There is a hammam on the territory. We went with children. Everything is great. Foot massage with fish, oil massage for the body, scrub, lather, face masks. Sauna is free. Hamam 25 dollars.
11. In terms of money, we advise you to immediately exchange dollars for lira. Since the Turks are fooling because of the rate fluctuations. They have the dollar, the euro, do not consider the difference. Euro coins are cheaper than paper ones, so we advise you not to go for local exchange. It is better to pay everything in lira.
12. We went on our own to Alanya, 15 km from Konakli. The buses run frequently. Travel 1.5 dollars.
In general, we liked the rest. The main thing is a positive attitude and what expectations. For us, it was most important to spend time with our family at sea. Therefore, we did not notice the cons. The hotel is hardly a 4 star, a solid 3 star due to the room compared to other hotels we have been to before. And if you do not compare, then the sea and delicious food, beautiful territory, mountains nearby, beauty. What else do you need for a holiday? )
