1. I bought a ticket from St. Petersburg 3 days before departure. Went for 3 days. One just flew away. No company. Confirmation within a couple of hours. Operator - TezTour. Carrier - Ural Airlines.
2. Flights in both directions are clearly on schedule (there - departure at 9:00, arrival at 11:30; return - departure at 11:00, arrival at 15:30). There - economy (business sold out), back - business. The difference is wide chairs and alcohol is poured. The food is the same, there is no business hall, there is no separate bus. Aircraft - A321, in normal condition. Service on the plane - on a solid 4. There were no drunks and violent on board.
3. Transfer in Antalya - went out first (I didn’t buy a visa - I already had it, there was no luggage - only hand luggage), they waited about an hour for those pulling themselves up. Yes, by the way, I went to the dutik upon arrival, took a bottle of good whiskey ...The road to the hotel is about 40 minutes there, back - half an hour, on the way of transportation - the hotel is the second there, the penultimate one back. You can order a taxi / individual transport - from $ 50 each way.

They brought it back early, before check-in began.
4. We were at the hotel around 13:30. Check-in from 14:00, the room was not yet ready, but immediately "marked" with a strip on the wrist and sent to dinner (see below for food). By 14:00 the room was ready.
5. The hotel has 3 buildings for living: the oldest (Annex), it is also the cheapest, it is also the one where you DO NOT need to go; newer (Club), average in price and quality, should suit most customers, closest to the beach; the newest, big and pretentious (Elegance), not much more expensive than the Club, but new, very clean, everything works, with balconies, in short, my choice. I definitely recommend. Cleaning daily. There is a free safe in the room. Free minibar (water and juices) updated daily. TV with tons of channels in most languages ​ ​ I know (including 2 in Russian, 1 in Ukrainian). You can smoke in the room. A set of cosmetics is minimal (soap, shampoo). The building has many floors, 3 elevators, with the exception of "rush hours" did not wait.
6. Food.
Always a decent selection of meat / fish dishes, side dishes, salads. Not a lot of fruit (out of season? ), at breakfast - a dozen varieties of cheese, GREAT selection of desserts, normal (no pretensions) wines, service (drinks) - leisurely, enough tables. Feed with short breaks from 6 am to 4 am. There is feeding by the pool (normal lunch + bar). Several bars, ultra all inclusive (but without elite alcohol - see buying whiskey in dutik). It is advisable to send $ 5 to the bartender on the first day, then - all without a queue for a raised hand. Uncomplicated cocktails are prepared. In general - food 5 points, drink - 4+.
7. There are 4 swimming pools, good fitness, saunas. Tennis court, ping pong. Basic service is free. Peeling, massage, etc. - for $.
8. The beach is close, towels and sun loungers are free, without restrictions, the sea is normal. For $ - bananas, rafts, parachutes, jet skis, etc. Separate swimming pool for children.

9. Animation. During the day - unobtrusively. In the evening (except Saturdays) - show.
At night - a club with a disco and a bar (free of charge, but $ 5 to the bartender speeds up the service to light speeds).
10. Free Wi-Fi in the hotel lobby. There is also a currency exchange (irrelevant, they take $ and euros everywhere, prices are in foreign currency), a small shop (cigarettes - $ 7 a pack). The hotel has a large shopping gallery (leather, gold, etc. ). Smoking indoors (except rooms) is not allowed.
11. Almost everyone understands Russian, English and German.
12. Check out from the hotel - 30 seconds. Transfer - see above.
13. Antalya is nearby, tours to the local hammam are offered (super, I recommend), shop tours (did not go), excursions where the soul wants (the soul wanted to rest stupidly for 2 days, did not go).
14. Planes take off/land over the hotel. Doesn't stress. When the door to the balcony is closed, you can't hear it at all.
15. Vacation romances start (and end) easily. The hotel is not student. Vacationers - the middle class, without pathos and show-offs, and families. Outside the May holidays - Russia / Ukraine / Germany / Turkey - equally.
On holidays - a shift towards the Russian-speaking public.
16. In general - rested on a solid 5. Full compliance with expectations. Price / quality - beyond praise. I WILL GO MORE!

17. General advice: do not save on room class. Don't be greedy for tips. Take your expensive alcohol. Do not change the currency, but take small $ bills. ROCK OUT!
