Rested in August 2012, two families with children (one 13, the other 2.7). The hotel is very good; contingent - Lebanese, Russians, Turks, 90% - families, pensioners. The transfer from the airport took about 40 minutes (i. e. , closer than to Marmaris, 2 times). Since we checked into the hotel at about 13:00, we had to wait about an hour for a room to be given. The territory of the hotel is huge, it is worth considering when settling. We lived in buildings T, they are at the end of the peninsula, near the Moonlight restaurant. In principle, it was convenient for us - every evening we had dinner at Moonlight, relatively close to the largest beach, slides, and a kids club. On the territory of the hotel goes "train" - so you can wait for him and not walk. But we mostly walked, it's especially great to breathe the cleanest air in the evening. We lived in rooms on the first floor. I agree that the soundproofing left much to be desired, but we got tired during the day and nothing bothered us. Another concern was the windows,
which can be easily opened from the street (But during the rest we didn’t have any incidents. The habit of the Turks (it seems to be so accepted everywhere) was also annoying to talk to each other in raised tones. The bar in the room is filled only on the day of arrival, keep this in mind "Further replenishment is paid! The food is good, varied, there was lamb, grilled shrimp, very tasty ice cream and pastries. The assortment was slightly limited by the end of our stay (a couple of evenings there was only turkey and fish). There is a good diet buffet (the child came up) "There was always enough fruit. The service in restaurants is terrible: sometimes I had to ask the waiters several times to clean and set the table. I generally keep quiet about bringing wine or something else. Tipping was not given in advance, because I'm used to to pay for the work done, and not for the ghostly prospect of its execution.
but they just talk and do nothing. They just make it look like it's working! Children's animation was not impressive. We almost weren't there; competitions were held during the day for older children, they did not do the little ones. The site is not bad: there are carousels, slides, but the pool has cold water. Evening children's disco is better, but held in a cramped area, where it was terribly stuffy! There were also very interesting evening shows. I recommend: Irish dancing, Moulin Rouge. T. called comedy shows suck with a wide range of flat, stupid and vulgar jokes. I liked to relax in the Agora Square in the evening: live music (jazz), fresh, beautiful. Service, again, zero. Once took a hookah, not bad. The sea was sometimes very dirty in the morning, in the evening, oddly enough, much cleaner. The beach is clean. As usual, where Russians rest, there was a problem with trestle beds. It used to be that from morning to afternoon, towels simply lay on neighboring trestle beds.

Only in the evening their "owners" came (And this is not an isolated case of their total rudeness and bad manners, seasoned with absolute ignorance and unwillingness to know English. A couple of examples. I wanted to take the last 2 portions. Another "comrade" almost broke the elevator doors (see, the elevator was leaving forever! ) with the words "Everything is narmul, everything is inclusive here! " In general, if you do not pay attention to such personalities and minor flaws rest is normal.
For those who will rest in Fethiye, I highly recommend paragliding: believe me, the sensations are worth it! Not far to go (Oludeniz, half an hour drive from Fethiye), cool guys-pilots, and, of course, a stunning view from a flight altitude of 1700 m!
In general, I will rate the hotel at 4+: good, but there is work to be done)
