I read a lot of negative reviews about this hotel, but the location and natural beauty still outweighed and the ticket was bought.
Let's start with the fact that we arrived in the evening, at 19.30 we were already at the reception. There were a lot of people, 40 people only from our flight, the buzz at the reception was notable) After 10 minutes everyone was told everything, we filled out the coronovirus brochure, the guest’s data, left the bags in the hallway and went quietly to dinner. After 40 minutes they took the room card and we were taken to a small 3-storey "bungalow".
1. Nature is a huge advantage of this hotel. We went here for a gorgeous view and I will say this, the photos do not convey this beauty. Mountains, greenery, clear sea, sailing yachts. . . the view of the bay, especially charming at night. . . just a fairy tale. A restaurant with a view of all these beauties, you eat and cannot take your eyes off the landscapes.

The territory is also very beautiful, because of the heat, of course, many plants are tired, but they are constantly watered. Very clean and tidy.
The beach consists of both a pantone part and a rocky beach. There were no problems with sunbeds at all, although there were quite a few people, in the shade, of course, there were almost always no places. Beach towels were changed without any problems, we have our own schedule, we mostly dried them in the room and did not bother to change them 300 times.
2. The staff is very friendly and positive, as it seemed 20% understands / speaks Russian, 70% speaks English, 10% speaks only Arabic, but this is not a problem, because Sign language works great. All issues were resolved quickly and without problems (I don’t know why so much negativity in other reviews).
3. Food - everything is very simple and tasty. If you are going on vacation to "eat", then this is not your option, although no one has left hungry yet. Out of 7 days, 4 times there was waiter service and there were small queues, but it was literally 2 minutes. The rest is self-service, the usual buffet.
4. Alcohol - there was a surprise, and a pleasant one at that) We took 1 liter of good gin with us, but as it turned out, their cocktails were very good both in taste and in alcohol content. Even the beer was good, no dilution. The bartenders are great, they made cocktails for every taste and color, but of course with the set that they have.
5. The room is ordinary, small, CLEAN, with a balcony! We were probably lucky, but we didn’t pay extra, didn’t swear, and settled in the first time. Everything was in order, the air conditioner was so powerful that it cooled the room in 15 minutes. We were cleaned 3 times in 7 days, while 2 more times we slept until lunch and simply refused cleaning. Towels were changed, cleaned well, although it was not much needed) The room itself is a little outdated, but not critical at all.

6. Animation - in the evening there was a party in the amphitheater, a children's and an adult program, there was karaoke once, but we spent time in our own way and I can’t really say anything special about this point.
7. We took an excursion to the ships, 4 bays. Sea of ​ ​ pleasure. For lovers of diving and swimming in divinely beautiful water - what you need! Although they write that it is cheaper to take from the locals, we ordered through TUI, we decided not to risk it.
8. We had a bite in Bodrum in a fish restaurant. Advice - change dollars for lira in exchangers, because the locals convert everything in their direction, of course, and we were heated by $ 12 out of the blue.
We heard stories from vacationers that they were badly poisoned at a local restaurant, so choose decent places!
I will conclude: my husband and I really enjoyed our vacation! We went to enjoy nature and it turned out 100%, nothing bothered and it was quite comfortable.
I recommend this hotel as a solid 4*.
