For the first time in 15 years, my husband and I returned from a vacation in Turkey unrested and dissatisfied with our vacation. We often chose the Lara region for holidays in spring and autumn, we visited 8 5 * hotels in this region. And Trendy Lara Hotel 5 * left the least pleasant impressions.
The hotel was chosen based on reviews and high scores for a new hotel in Lara were a decisive factor in choosing a hotel. .
We arrived at the hotel at night at 00.30-1.00. The keys were issued quite quickly - in 10-15 minutes and that's it... We were left alone at the check-in desk, no one escorted us to the room, no one could deliver our luggage and no one even showed us which way to move. After waiting 10 minutes, we independently went to look for a room.

The room overlooked the mountains and, in principle, suited us: a view of the green area, partly, the river, partly, the outbuildings. Then we realized that the rooms that overlook another building or pool are much worse: there are concrete roofs between the buildings and not a gram of greenery, there is constant noise from the side of the pool.
The room is comfortable, it has everything you need for a relaxing beach holiday: linen and towels were changed either on demand or after 2 days.
The worst thing about this holiday was that the food at the hotel clearly did not correspond to the declared 5 * and UAI: cuisine under the motto "100 vegetable dishes": 3-4 types of meat (chicken, minced meat and lamb), fish (common for Turkey river trout) we saw 2 times, there was never seafood. Of the fruits were apples, oranges, very sour nectarines, watermelons. 1 time were kiwi. For 7 days of rest, there was never a strawberry or cherry, despite the fact that these are seasonal fruits. Fresh - for a fee.
Alcohol is normal: both the choice and the quality, which is typical for hotels of the declared category.
And the worst thing about vacation. According to reviews, the hotel is focused on the Germans and the British. in fact, it turned out that Germans - 2-3%, two families of Italians and a company of Croats... A few Ukrainians.
Russians - 90-95%. It seems that we ended up in the Ural or Siberian region of the Russian Federation: Surgut, Perm, Chelyabinsk... with the corresponding impressions. .
All Russians constantly yell at each other: mothers - at children (sometimes obscenities), husbands - at wives, etc. They drag plastic bags with food from the restaurant, push themselves out of line, grab food with their hands (although there are tongs or spoons everywhere) and even put food from their plates back into the food warmers. . .
We have the impression that they moved 30 years ago. And this is not just a "scoop", but a hard, "Siberian scoop".
Therefore, I cannot recommend this hotel to those wishing to enjoy a relaxing, comfortable stay on the coast of Antalya.
