I flew in April with my boyfriend. The hotel met all expectations. This is the 4th time in Turkey, before that I had a rest in decent 5 stars (Limak Limra - Kemer, Topka Pi Palas - Antaliya, Kadikale Resort - Bodrum), but despite the fact that Lonissera 4 stars did not feel a huge difference. At the time of choosing the hotel, I read a lot of reviews on various sites, mostly the reviews are true. Of the minuses that I noted for myself: it is very far from the airport (although there are further); small room, nowhere to put things; central air conditioning, it is not possible to customize; beach towels were changed every 3 days, although you could go to the maid on your own and change them, but also not very convenient; Room cleaning - just made the bed and folded the towels. The territory is good, large, also the plus of the hotel is that it is on the 1st line, the beach is sandy, the sea is not very clean, but tolerable, although the beach staff do not relax, they regularly take out garbage from the water.
The food is quite monotonous, but in principle a lot of things, on the third day I got tired, but we didn’t go hungry. The weather in April is changeable, it was from 17 to 24, it rained for a couple of days, but there were also days when the sun was unbearably hot, it was necessary to hide in the shade. Resting mostly Russians and Germans, well, so each "creature" in pairs. The hotel is family-friendly, many with children and young couples, due to the fact that there are not many places for entertainment outside the hotel in Alanya, so young people do not go.
We went to the village of Avsalar to the shopping center, walk along the road for 20-25 minutes at a walking pace, it is absolutely safe, no one bothers, the prices are not much cheaper than at the hotel, well, they are still being traded. To get to Avsalar, when leaving the hotel, you need to turn left and walk along the road, there is a sign.

We went on a tour of Demre-Mira-Kekova. We bought a ticket from the tour operator Coral Travel for $ 75. We bought a ticket on the first day, as the Kolar representative said that it would be possible to buy it only today. When we went to the beach the representative of the local tour. I handed out brochures to companies, the same excursion cost $ 45 for them. In general, I want to say that it makes no sense to go from Alenia to Pomukale and Demre-Mira-Kekova, since the road there turns out to be 2 times longer than from Kmer, Antalya and Bodrum.
The animation is so-so, but I think it's because the beginning of the season has not yet gained momentum.
In general, I liked the hotel, the staff is friendly, not a bad relaxing holiday.
