The title of the review is not without reason: a neighboring 5 * bought "Blue Bodrum" and it seems like this season may be the last for a pretty "three-ruble note", alas. . .
Therefore, do not hesitate and go with a good mood to rest in this hotel. Please don't read bad reviews about this nice hotel - see for yourself that the wonderful clear slightly cool sea with a sandy bottom, great climate, friendly and welcoming staff, comfortable rooms and patio with pool and disco by the bar, lots of food and drink, sun , wonderful Turks, shopping in Turgutreis and a lot of joy from the rest you will like and miss this hotel after returning home.
To everyone who rested in this hotel during this period, a huge hello! We were very lucky with a wonderful company, with good people and a very successful race! It was very, very, very fun! You will be entertained only by representatives of the tour operator, offering excursions at inflated prices and in the evening at the disco at the bar. The rest of the time is left to you, as you wish, and plan your day and rest.

I assure you that you will not regret the money spent for a very, very pleasant stay!
So, the trip was from June 8 to June 18. We flew out on time, in Bodrum we were met by "Pegasists", but there is a separate story about the accompanying Regina on the bus. I even wrote down what she said on the way from the airport to the hotel so that I would not forget any of the masterpieces I heard. Here are her stories:
- let's greet the driver, he's driving 1 time today, ha ha ha.
- the guide at the hotel at the meeting with you will tell you where it is better to break your arm so that you get insurance, ha ha ha.
- Well, I don’t know and haven’t heard anything about the representatives of the travel agency who suffered from alcohol in Bodrum (although everyone knows about this even in Russia). and do not talk about sad things, this does not concern us, we will have fun, ha ha ha.
- women, you can collect flowers that grow along the road - they are poisonous and if you need to poison your husband, then don't forget to stock up on the way back, ha ha ha.
- you can visit the hammam, they remove Russian skin and dress Turkish, ha-ha-ha.
- What do you think, what kind of barrels are on the roofs of houses? Well, of course, these are moonshine stills (it was Regina who joked so cleverly about solar panels), ha-ha-ha!
Pegasus managers, please pay attention to the selection of employees, save tourists and their children from listening to Regina's such nonsense for more than an hour on the way to the hotel!!!

Excursions can be bought at travel agencies in Turgutreis (which is 25 minutes on foot along the embankment or 10 minutes on a dolmush for 2 liras)) at prices 2 times lower than those of a tour operator with the same services on excursions. In Turgutreis every Saturday there is a market and a vegetable-fruit and clothing market. And the malls and shops are open every day. Trade, dress up. Stuff is cool and cheap. If you walk along the embankment, then when you reach the wall, go around it along the river of the sea and go further adhering to the coastline, the promenade along the hotels will begin and you will come to the shopping arcade. After passing through the extreme row from the sea, you will come to the currency exchange point. Rubles do not change!! ! But only dollars and euros.
Near the supermarket there are ATMs, incl. Bank Fintrast, where I cashed a credit card, like without interest. You can get to Bodrum on your own, for this, first to the final stop on the dolmush to Turgutreis. This is a bus station, next to the Migros supermarket. And then there, take a bus to Bodrum, the fare is 4 lira. You can also go to the fortress and admire the yachts. A clothing market in Bodrum on Tuesday.
There are two fish restaurants bordering the Blue Bodrum Hotel. In the one on the right, it was planned to open a disco bar on the veranda of the 2nd floor. Probably already opened. . . And our company was hanging out in the restaurant on the left of the wonderful, hospitable, cheerful Vedat, his no less wonderful business partner Mustafa and their no less wonderful waiters. Huge greetings to all of them and many thanks for the company, treats and joy of communication.
You can also go to the 5 * hotel on the left in the evening and watch their entertainment show, animation and dance (if the guards let you through). But if you go not in a crowd, but 1-2, then it is likely that you will pass. It is impossible to enter the hotel on the right either during the day, or even more so in the evening. But even in our hotel it is not boring, many people relax by the pool, especially with children.
You may not really like the restaurant, yes - the restaurant can hardly be called a restaurant because of the interior, but this is the only drawback.
Chickens and cats walk around the restaurant to the delight of children.

The territory of the hotel is not large: two buildings are located opposite each other, between them there is a swimming pool and a bar. The restaurant flows smoothly into gazebos for relaxation, a podium for sunbathing and the beach. There were enough sun loungers for everyone who didn’t have mattresses - they brought them from the pool. Towels were taken from home. Cleaning in the room is good, it was always clean, and I didn’t litter. And the bed was changed once. The nights are cool, but I used the bedspread from the next bed (there were 3 in the room). The plumbing leaked a little, but everything functioned. The water in the shower was hot only during the day, warm in the morning and evening, and cold at night. The furniture in the room is very decent, and the 226 room itself with a balcony and sea view is very good. A hotel on the very seashore, is this not the best reason to relax at an affordable price and not overpay for stardom. Although to each his own. . .
There is a mosque next to the hotel, but I heard the mullah's morning prayer only the next day upon arrival, then I got used to it. And during the day, she did not bother, and even complemented the national flavor.
