Pluses of the hotel: huge rooms - standards (47 sq. m), chic clean large beach + pier, large kids club, evening family show concerts.
Cons: poor housekeeping, sometimes dirty dishes in the restaurant, queues for food.
They didn’t check us in right away, we arrived at 9-30 in the morning, checked in at 14-00, despite the fact that we immediately gave $ 10 at the reception, but settled very conveniently, in a bungalow, a room on the 1st floor, everything was close: the beach, all bars, Olympic swimming pool, restaurant. I didn’t have to suffer and wait for an elevator for a long time or stomp the stairs (this is the case in the main building).

There is only one main restaurant, there is also by the sea (we liked to dine with a view of the sea), such as a snack bar, for lunch it differs little in assortment from the main one, only fewer dishes, after dinner there are corn, donuts, pizza, baby potatoes, etc. near the Olympic pool and bar, a woman sits making cakes with meat and salted cottage cheese (12-00 to 16-00).
The main restaurant is full at lunchtime and in the evening.
There is a lot of food, varied: for lunch there are always two soups, fish, any meat except pork, meatballs, grill, a lot of dishes with vegetables, etc. There were seafood: shrimp, squid, octopus, crayfish, mussels; in one evening there were rolls, several types, delicious. Sweet tooth - there are a lot of cakes and cakes, Turkish sweets (rahat lokum) appeared only on the last day - it was the holiday of Kurban Bayran. There is ice cream, loose for lunch (at the beach bar) and dinner (at the main restaurant),
Products are all fresh, fruit vegetables ripe.
In the main restaurant there is a table with distribution for children, there are always soups, boiled vegetables, boiled meat with broth, cereals, purees. children's cookies, milk, lots of yogurt. There is a microwave, blender, baby bottle machine.
On the beach there is a distribution of sliced ​ ​ watermelons, from 11-00.
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND PEOPLE WHO WRITE REVIEWS WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH FOOD???!!! ! what ? , there is a lot of it and it does not end.
The mini-bar in the room is replenished with fanta sprite, cola, juices and water daily. Water is available throughout the territory in refrigerators.
There is a lot of local alcohol, but from bottles, there is also imported: cognac, whiskey, etc. Beer "Efes" everywhere.
The beach is a significant plus of the hotel!
Huge, wide, clean, "combed". Excellent sunbeds, in working condition, there was always enough for everyone. Beach cleaning is good. Gentle sandy entry into the sea throughout. For children, what you need. No special shoes needed!
If the beach is your priority, then this is the place for you.
There is a pier with sun loungers, chairs, sofas + bar, half of the seats on the pier are paid, the most luxurious places are along the edge of the pier with couches, gazebos, and the rest are sunbeds, tables, sofas, chairs for free.

There are no problems with beach towels, they are issued at the SPA daily.
The beach has a separate area with beach sports, volleyball (2 courts), etc.
The sea was surprisingly warm and clean. calm before lunch, sometimes waves in the afternoon. At 11:00 a cold watermelon is brought to the beach.
Pools
Net 5 pieces, including Olympic, children's with slides. Water park with 6 slides.
Kids club.
One of the best, a chic game room, a playground, a program of activities with children, face painting, etc. is posted every day.
But, our child did not particularly show interest in this complex, played in the sand on the sea, in his games, attended only animation in the evenings and went to the swing there. On one of the days of our stay there was a children's show "Ice Age", cool.
The animation is very good, these are cool evening programs, as a rule, circus, dance, acrobatic, illusionists, sometimes local stars, plus DJ Ruslan Nigmatullin. All for family viewing, our child did not watch, almost always fell asleep. All visiting bands give their best at 200%, which is not always seen on the stages of the capital, and this energizes.
Before the show itself and after - the singing fountains turned on spectacularly with instrumental processing, sometimes for Russians under black eyes. Spectacular, amazing, all the kids love it!!!!!!!!!!!
In the evening, late, there is a disco, but we were already asleep, so I won’t say anything about it.
Animation is at the pool, on the beach, water games, volleyball, darts, but we rested from the crowd, did not participate. Everyone will find an event of interest.
In general, the animation is unobtrusive, which is nice.
Wifi is very decent. Surprisingly, he takes on the pier, on the beach. But sometimes it falls off, then it falls off. The room and reception are very nice.
The epidemic of enterovirus infection (Coxsackie), about which we were told a lot, did not manifest itself in any way !!! ! But we drank antiviral just in case, but without problems.

About excursions: we went to Discovery Park, for our age of 3.5 years, the child is very good. The guide tells and shows everything to the children. Many figures of dinosaurs, large sizes, figures from your favorite cartoons, you can take a picture. ponds with flamingos and swans, a mini zoo, rabbits running around, chickens, etc. , there is a mini aquarium, a room with birds, reptiles. The fur seal show is good. The prices for water and snacks are high there, we took it with us. Photos with their animals (parrot, tiger cub, etc. ) are also a little expensive - $ 10 at the exit. in terms of duration - until lunch, it’s convenient for us, because the child has a schedule.
We also visited the hammam, we liked it.
We had a good rest, brought a charge of energy for the whole year, a bunch of positive emotions. We are reviewing the photos and dreaming of a new trip !!!! !
