My friend and I went to a 4 * hotel in Belek - Belcon. We chose the hotel precisely because of the beach, the promised sand was not there. Gravel, stones with gravel at the entrance to the sea, sand a little further to the shore and quite - very little. There were few people. On the last day it began to rain, the waves rose up to 1 meter. The locals still swam, although I know during such a wave it is very dangerous, they may not be thrown ashore, but rather sucked into the sea.
Regarding food, how much I read here before the trip - do not be afraid, do not get poisoned, I - got poisoned. I think the infection came along with sweet cakes, there were too many flies. The owner does nothing to fight the flies. Workers said that a car came and offered paid services to fight flies. But like Mehmet - the director of the hotel himself from the village, did not consider it necessary to disinfect. Here is the result: paid breakfasts, lunches and dinners pass me by. I couldn't eat anything for 3 days. About accommodation in rooms: at first we were settled in a cottage with 601 rooms, from where we moved to the main building on the second day. In the cottages, the rooms are spacious, but there is no carpet, and the cement floor did not suit us, and the toilet room did not close, the door was broken. Moreover, next to it was a washing machine, so huge, it made noise and whistled, and finally a chainsaw joined this noise. We fled to the building. True, the number was changed with difficulty, they did not pay anything extra, they were just persistent. Tour operators from Yakut-travel helped us. When we were asked to invite the manager, we immediately found a room on the 3rd floor. The room in the building turned out to be clean, soft carpet, and the furniture was light, the TV worked properly.
About the staff: all the shop assistants are friendly, we got to know each other, even became friends - Ruslan, Oksana, thank you for the evenings spent! Special thanks to you, Maya and Yuldyz, for your attitude towards me. When I got sick, I caught a cold on my neck in the wind, they gave me herbal tea to drink, gave me a massage, and also explained that such cases as poisoning, colds, allergies are not included in the insurance. The insurance that you pay at the travel agency includes bruises, cuts, fractures, dislocations. So be informed! When contacting a doctor at the hotel, pay an appointment of $60. This is just a consultation. Medications and treatments are separate. It is better to take your stomach medicines with you. Better yet, do not eat from plates if there is a suspicion that they are dirty, and with sweet cakes, be careful with microbes from under the flies. In the hotel, everyone perked up only when a group of tourists of 20 people from France arrived, flowers immediately appeared on the tables, and the staff became more friendly. About the beach: the beach is very far away - 5 minutes by bus (free of charge). The bus went 2 times in the morning at 10 and in the afternoon at 14 o'clock, later the flights increased, and they began to travel 4-5 times a day. On the beach they also give drinks, bottled water, mattresses, and towels with you! In five-star hotels, which are located nearby, the guards are not allowed. Neither sea nor land. Vacationers there have bracelets of a different color on their hands, so even if you just want to look at you, the guards will attach themselves with questions. It's better on your own beach. I regretted that I decided to save money and did not take a 5 star.
