Dear friends!
After reading the negative reviews of most tourists, I, frankly, was horrified, I disagree more than 1000% with what they write, it seems that you were not in Turkey, but in one of our Russian resorts, such as Anapa! !!
After looking at everything, I decided to share with everyone, current and future tourists, MY impressions of staying at Cesars Temple.
I would like to immediately emphasize that I am writing this review for personal reasons, not by order, as many people think and write here, I am not an interested person, I am an ordinary tourist, like most of those present here !!!
***
It so happened that last year, planning your vacation in advance, as normal people do, did not work out, everything happened quite spontaneously and unexpectedly, there was no more than a week to think and buy a ticket. Where to go? ! The eternal question of all tourists... and if the deadlines are running out... Out of everything possible, at that time, and desired, the choice fell on Turkey.

Of the 3 hotels presented to us, the tour operator, our choice was on Caesar and now I can tell you absolutely honestly and frankly that we did not regret it for a second, so I was extremely surprised and somewhat shocked and disappointed with WHAT, and most importantly, HOW, people write !!!
Looking ahead a little, I want to tell you that if your choice fell on the Cesars Temple hotel, then you are incredibly lucky!! ! Impressions from Cesars Temple were the most vivid, kind, beautiful, best, unforgettable!!!
Well, first things first:
We rested in this hotel from August 15 to 22.2010. We were in Turkey for the first time, before that the choice fell mainly on Europe, but, as I said earlier, for a long time neither the country nor the hotel had to be chosen, it was not possible, therefore, in in the literal sense of the word - we went where they offered, where there were places, because. August, one of the most holiday months in all southern countries. I read the reviews in passing, I try not to pay special attention to them, tk. as the saying goes "the taste and color. "
We arrived in the evening, around 18.30, we were immediately settled, the room was given a beautiful, clean, comfortable, plumbing works properly, there was always hot and cold water, the room has a modern TV, a refrigerator, a safe, a huge double bed, the room was cleaned every day, FOR FREE!! ! Tipping is at your discretion, there is no "obligation".
We were given a room in the main building with a sea view! REAL FAIRY TALE!! ! For this, a special THANK YOU to the reception staff, to all those who are engaged in accommodating visitors. I want to note that I did not have to pay extra for a room and overpay anything !!!
We rested in this hotel even before its restoration and the so-called rebranding (renaming the hotel: it used to be Cesar Temple Belek 5 *, and now it has become Cesars Temple Golf & Tennis Academy 5 *), and was incredibly happy with everything that I saw and that who and what surrounded me, do not think that there is nothing to compare with, there is something else: before that I was in Australia and Tenerife !!!
I am sure that after the restoration the hotel has become even better and more comfortable than before!!!

The hotel is located on a huge green area in a picturesque place. The building itself is made in a very beautiful, rich, interesting (not similar to other hotels) style, the main building resembles a huge palace with large columns and spacious halls, it feels like you are in a museum, luxury is all around: marble floor, stunningly beautiful decoration of EVERYTHING, including furniture, high ceilings, huge chandeliers, in general, the feeling of being in a fairy tale, it is impossible to convey everything in words, it must be seen!! ! From what you see captures the spirit from the first minutes of arrival at this hotel.
The territory is green, palm trees, pines, various decorative bushes, the territory is well-groomed, constantly cleaned, cleanliness all around.
The hotel staff is almost all Russian-speaking. They kindly answer all questions of interest, instantly eliminate all problems, if anyone has any.
I want to draw your attention to the fact that, despite the fact that the hotel accommodates 3.000 vacationers, it is practically not felt in real life, the territory is so huge that people almost do not touch each other, in rare cases it is by the pool, at various events or in a restaurant…
The sea is clean and very warm (+28 +30), the farther from the coast, the cooler the water, imagine there were moments when you swim in warm water, the sun bakes from above (+35+40) and periodically rolls under the water with a cool wave, such a buzz, contrast... super easy!
The beach is clean, well maintained, sandy. The entrance to the sea and the bottom is also sand.
There were always enough sun loungers for everyone, there were even many free ones.
On the beach there was a daily exercise, Pilates, for lovers.
For lovers of extreme sports, various water activities are presented on the beach: banana riding, parasailing, etc. (these services are paid)
The hotel has 2 outdoor (one with a water park) and 1 indoor pools.
I read reviews about pools that there is a lot of bleach, almost children cry, that the water is hot, that someone is poisoned by this water, etc.... dear friends, let's look at all things objectively, no one is forcing you or your children forcibly splashing in the pool, then I don’t understand those who go to the sea, but sit by the pool for days? ! Explain what is the point? All strength, health and energy is contained in sea water, and not in running water, and it seemed to me that the majority go to the sea for this. If you want your children to be healthy, take them to the sea, to sea water, and not to the pool.

As for chlorine, then, of course, in any hotel, they resort to this method of disinfection, you can’t get away from it, that’s right, when you buy a tour, they don’t ask you for a health certificate, so this is a forced precautionary measure !!
Various games, aqua aerobics, volleyball, water polo were held by the pool every day. Evening programs were always different and exciting - performances in the amphitheater, live music, dances, shows, performances, etc. - I didn't have to be bored!
There is a gym on site. For lovers of SPA treatments, there are special outdoor pavilions where you can enjoy a relaxing massage.
The hotel is a family hotel, therefore, excellent conditions have been created for couples vacationing with children, animators are constantly working with children, there is a kids club, playgrounds, in general, all 33 pleasures and even more!!!
I would like to pay special attention to such an issue as food: meals at the hotel are provided according to the All Inclusive system (All Inclusive), from early morning until late at night, “eat - I don’t want to!!! ”
A huge selection of meat and fish dishes, a variety of side dishes, a huge number of vegetables to choose from, both fresh and stewed, cheeses, yogurts, fruits, pastries, and of course, the famous Turkish sweets (you will not see such an abundance anywhere else, believe me , there is something to compare)! Most of the dishes are cooked right in front of you!! ! Just don't try everything!! ! Everything is very fresh and delicious!!!
For all this, I would like to express a special THANK YOU first of all to the chef of the restaurant and his assistants, as well as a special thank you to the chef for those wonderful works of art from watermelons that he makes, if you are lucky, then perhaps one of these figures will be show off your name, as it happened to me))) Insanely beautiful, original and at the same time very nice! Fatih, thank you so much for everything!!!
Drink lovers are offered a huge number of different alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails to choose from, wine, beer, water, juices, etc. On the territory there are indoor and outdoor restaurants, conveniently located numerous bars: by the beach, by the pools, in the hotel lobby...

For shopping lovers, I advise you to go to the city center, to Belek, you can and even need to bargain, they love it!! ! By the way, every day from the hotel, every 30-40 minutes, there is an open tram directly to Belek, fare 1 person = $ 1
The only minus is the climate, very high humidity, not for everyone, it’s hard to breathe in the evening, you don’t feel it during the day, because. the sea, the breeze, but in the evening, when you want coolness, on the contrary, it's stuffy... and then this minus cannot be attributed to the hotel, because. neither the hotel nor the staff are to blame for this - this is a feature of the country's climate!!!
And finally, I want to say, when choosing a place of rest, a hotel, be guided all the same, not by someone else's opinion, people's reviews, but by your own opinion, tastes and intuition, because. most negative reviews are written either by competitors or by people with inflated requests and requirements, who, for example, after paying 50.000 r. they want to get a vacation for 500.000 rubles, so I advise you to relax in Europe, in the Maldives or the Seychelles, and I want to note that the All Inclusive conditions, you are not sure what you will get there, because basically the whole of Europe works on a half board basis (HD) !!!
All the dirt that they are trying to pour here on the hotel, staff, service, etc. , all negative comments, cause irresistible indignation and resentment, of course, as they say, taste and color, to each his own, but, it seems to me, not entirely fair writing such things, especially in most cases, is absolutely groundless !!!

Before "lowering" anything and anyone, think about your behavior and actions!! ! It's really a shame to look at the majority of Russians abroad, sometimes that rudeness, disrespect, behavior that is shown in relation to everything around has no boundaries! !! If you think that you have paid money for a ticket and you are allowed to do everything - you are deeply mistaken!! ! Be REASONABLE!! ! Have a conscience and respect for the people and the country where you are!! ! There is nothing perfect in this world, everywhere there are + and -, it’s just that someone knows how to convert minuses into pluses, but someone doesn’t !!!
Dear friends, remember, happy is the one who is content with little, if you really want to unforgettably, beautifully, calmly and comfortably relax, get vivid emotions and impressions, then Cesars Temple is for you!!!
This hotel meets all the declared characteristics and deserves a rating of 5+!!!
I would like to express my special gratitude to the management of the Cesar Temple Hotel, for the well-chosen, professional, qualified, good-natured, helpful, hospitable staff!!!
Thanks to all the hotel staff who were with us and who made our stay comfortable, bright, unforgettable, for 7 happy days!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Will definitely go back there as soon as possible!!!
I wish the hotel further development and prosperity, and I wish all tourists a happy holiday, vivid emotions and unforgettable impressions !! !
