Казино с ревом авиадвигателя Casino with the roar of an aircraft engine

If you are a fan of casino surroundings and you like the noise of aircraft engines, then you are here! There is a lot of gold and mirrors in the design of the hotel, there is not a lot of gilding and mirrors! On the way from the beach to the room, I counted 113 mirrors. All furniture is gilded. Oriental chic, but not for everyone. Excellent cuisine in the hotel - everything except the fish is delicious. Fish traditionally for Turkey do not know how to cook. The hotel has a large territory, especially considering that the hotel belongs to the urban category. But do not flatter yourself - the center of Antalya is a 15-minute taxi ride and about 100 lira on the meter. You should not leave the hotel - a typical residential area with a Turkish flavor. There are no shops or entertainment around. True, there is Migros nearby, but it does not accept Russian cards and currency, only lira. That is, it is not designed for tourists.
The hotel has 3 options for a beach holiday: sand and the usual beach for the Lara area, beach shallow water for children, waist-deep for an adult and a concrete platform with a ladder - deep immediately. There is also a wooden pier on which there are also sunbeds. In general, there are plenty to choose from.
There are several restaurants and cafes on the territory - there are places to eat. BUT, despite the fact that the territory is large, it is all built up with shops, cafes, and playgrounds. There is only one decent clearing with live turtles - everything else is concrete and stone with very narrow paths - two adults go very close. The road to the sea from the hotel building (there are 7 buildings) goes along the path. It seems that before these were shopping streets and they were simply fenced off with a fence and placed in the territory of the hotel. And every day you walk past these shops, which, by displaying their goods, “eat up” already narrow aisles.

Plus, on the paths they put hefty jugs with palm trees and you have to write out zigzags to get through.
And if it seemed to you that I was describing everything critically, then you are mistaken - criticism will go further.
Despite the fact that in general the hotel leaves a very pleasant impression, there are nuances with which I could not come to terms.
First, when you check in, they try to place you in “rejected” rooms. For example, room 714 is a room on the ground floor, but two rooms. The view from the windows on the wall with external blocks of the air conditioning system - no sun, noise and the staff under the window of the room organized their own smoking room - what an atmosphere!
I already wrote about planes - the hotel is located in the glide path of Antalya Airport and every 3-5 minutes a plane sits down or takes off. The height of the flight over the hotel is 50-100 meters and the roar is appropriate!
And most importantly - the hotel needs to urgently solve something with the service.
Maybe even start with the head management - well, the lower staff cannot do such poor quality work if they are required to provide good service! It is strongly not recommended to walk in the room without slippers (fortunately, they are in every room) - your feet get dirty.
Given the fact that there is nowhere to go outside the hotel, everyone spends evenings in bars, though the animation is wonderful. Excellent performances by guest artists and their own dance evenings with good preparation and selection of music. BUT in the morning the cleaning of the territory after the night walks begins at 9 am. That is, those who get up earlier go swimming in the sea, maneuvering between empty glasses, cigarette butts, and, to be honest, sometimes vomit. Those who get up later walk along the cleaned territory, but on damp stone, which is fraught with falls, which I have repeatedly witnessed.

Plus, they prefer not to sweep large areas of the territory, but to blow off the apparatus on a gas engine, which does not add peace to others. Although against the background of flying aircraft, this is not particularly noticeable.
And finally, the remark on the host side - the company Coral Travel - well, frankly disappointed. The hotel was chosen not far from the airport on purpose, as we do not like long transfers. 10-15 minutes drive to the hotel, but the operator compiled the route in such a way that the mini-bus carried 8 people to the hotel for 1.5 hours. That is, first they brought tourists to Antalya and the Old Town, and then we and another family were brought to the hotel, which was located in close proximity to the airport. I repeat - exactly half of the tourists on the bus (4 people) went to one hotel near the airport, and another 2.2 people went to different hotels in Antalya and they were taken first. That is, taking care of tourists is on the face. The return transfer was also surprising - they took us from the hotel at 5-45 in the morning.
We arrived on time, but the escort from the company immediately began to impose a check-in at the perfume store. At 6 am? ! We didn’t get enough sleep, we had already planned all the time - and here is such a “generous” offer. So choose, but carefully.
