The location is far from Bodrum (approx. 40 km), from the nearest village of Turgutreis 3 km, along the coast approx. 30 minutes on foot. In Turgutreis there are supermarkets, a market, a large selection of souvenirs. That is, far from civilization.
I really liked the hotel itself, small, cozy, with a beautiful courtyard (ask to be placed in rooms overlooking the garden). The rooms themselves are small, the shower was a little disappointing, there were constantly puddles on the floor.
The staff does not speak Russian and does not understand, they know English, German. According to reviews, I read that there is a bad attitude towards the Slavs, this is not felt here. Of the vacationers, many Turks, Poles, Czechs, of our Russian speakers, Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians, Kazakhs, pulled themselves up by the end of my vacation, so there is someone to talk to.

I liked the food, varied, constantly meat-chicken, beef, they gave fish a couple of times, the breakfasts were a bit poor, but they never left hungry, they were satisfied with the food. The bar-beer is weak until 24.00, you can drink wine (white, red), vodka so yourself. If after 24.00 you want to continue the banquet, no one will pour it, it’s a little expensive in the neighboring market, but we took a drink from Duty free with us and didn’t lose)))
Excursions are expensive, we went from the Tez tour, and only on the last day we found out that we could order breakfast (lunch box) with us, because. We left at 5am, our hotel guide didn't bother to let us know. On excursions they fed, but did not really like it. By the way, in Turgutreis, they accidentally found an agency in which excursions were 2 times cheaper, with a Russian-speaking guide.
The beach is small, there are sun loungers, mattresses, the entrance to the sea is first small pebbles, then sand, there is a pier with a ladder. The sea is clean, shallow, it holds well.
There is no entertainment in the hotel, except for tennis, volleyball. They invited us to a disco in the basement, but no one goes there, it would be better if they did it near the bar.
In general, we liked it. If you want a relaxing holiday by the sea, go there.
