Territory:
- Large, very green, ramps everywhere, it is convenient to walk with a stroller.
- There is no direct access to the sea, only through the building with a restaurant - it is inconvenient with a stroller, plus additional temperature differences.
- Wooden flooring on the beach not only to the sea, but also along all the sun loungers (no need to drag the stroller along the sand).
Building and rooms:
- Morally obsolete by 10 years.
- Cleaning is mediocre and not every day. They constantly forget to report something from shampoos. The furniture on the balcony was dirty upon arrival.
- Only 1 elevator to get to the restaurant on the 2nd floor (relevant for those with a stroller).
- Everywhere there are revolving doors that do not spin - it is not realistic to drag a stroller through them. Next to it are ordinary doors that you have to hold with your foot in the old fashioned way and push the stroller through - uncomfortable, terribly.

- Almost all rooms are very noisy until 12 at night. Even if you can't hear the music itself, you can definitely hear the bass. If you close the balcony, then it is tolerable, but without air conditioning there is nothing to breathe (and under the air conditioner a child suddenly fell ill).
Infrastructure for kids of our age:
- Covered large sand playground on the beach.
- A decent playground at the other end of the hotel near the water park.
- Children's mini-club in the building is divided into 4 "pens" for children. Children under 3 years of age under the supervision of a parent. In principle, it's normal - for a change it will go.
- A couple of small playgrounds on the territory.
- Children's pools are very cold - do not bathe babies there.
- No warm shower for kids outside.
- A lot of green lawn, where the baby can crawl, stomp.
Nutrition:
- Large selection of fruits.
- It seems like a lot of food is prepared, but at least half of the dishes are repeated every day.
- A lot of salted and peppered food.
- Not all food has signs, it is not clear what kind of salads are mixed for example.
- Mediocre sweets, except baklava.
Nutrition for babies:
- Only 1 type of canned apple-carrot puree.
- No curds.
- Juices and yoghurts (with sugar) without age indication.
- Strikingly, the children's menu and part of the menu from the general table and the dietary table coincide. I would like to believe that they still cook separately with increased security measures...
Coronavirus realities:
- The hotel is crowded, queues for tea, it is difficult to find a free clean table for breakfast, lunch, dinner.
- I liked the distribution of food through the glass - no one chooses better pieces and does not shake their hair into food.
- There are always places on the beach and near the pools.
Additionally:
- Excellent hammam and sauna.
- All children will have to go to the city to buy more, in the hotel everything is about 5-10 times more expensive.
- No robes.
- For an additional fee, they gave a room with a gorgeous view of the sea.
- Good Wi-Fi almost everywhere. In the main building there is enough speed to watch movies.
- Baby crib - playpen - in fact, the child sleeps almost at floor level)) as a result, the son slept with us - there was plenty of space.

- Our room lacked the usual shelves in the closet.
- Tiles in the bathroom and throughout the hotel are very slippery when wet. The child fell several times - be sure to hold the kids by the hand.
- I liked the area with the water park.
- The adult pools have pleasant warm water.
- A lot of Russians, some of them swear, be rude, drink, smoke next to playgrounds, etc. - unpleasant.
Conclusion: for children under 3 years old, a lot of work needs to be done in this hotel. For older children, I think everything is much better.
