I will immediately indicate that, in general, I have a good impression of the hotel, since I did not fly on a classic hotel vacation, but behind the beautiful sea and mountains.
Therefore, I am very satisfied with my vacation.
But the hotel has its own nuances, which I want to share so that tourists are aware of it.
So, let's go through all the categories:
GENERAL FORM
At the entrance to the hotel, the appearance is a bit disappointing: it doesn’t feel like a classic Turkish 5 *. Rustic.
And when you start to move around the hotel - it's also dirty??? ? more precisely, all the glass partitions are dirty, of which there are many in the hotel: elevators, balconies, partitions between hotel zones. This is very eye catching. And why they don’t follow this, one can only guess and write it off as a reduction in the staff budget during quarantine time. But even that doesn't justify them. Still, cleanliness affects the comfort of guests, and of course determines the level of the hotel. For 5 * this is definitely unacceptable.
Orka Sunlife was built in 2013. For the Fethiye region, the hotel is considered not old, because at the same time tourists go to hotels built in 1989 or 1993 with renovation and more than 10 years ago.
So, for 2013, the hotel looks worn out. And the interior is not as modern as we would like. Overall, though, it looks good. Just again: the appearance and size does not reach 5 *.
LOCATION OF THE HOTEL
Orka Sunlife is located on a mountain 2.5 km from the beach in the village of Oludeniz.
There is a shuttle from the hotel that takes guests to the beach at 9:30.10:30, from the beach - at 15:00.16:00. The shuttle is comfortable, but the time for summer is not the most convenient. Just right for the heat.
Walking to the beach is not an option at all. The road leads down, absolutely unsuitable for pedestrians. In general, only well-trained physically people can walk upstairs. For stomping 2 km uphill is not a walk along the promenade.
Therefore, the easiest, but not the cheapest option is a taxi. The call is possible both from the hotel and from the Oludeniz promenade.
The price is about 30 lire per car (~$3.5).
There is also an option to get from the beach to the turn to the hotel on the passing Oludeniz-Fethiye minibus. The fare is 7.5 lire per person. The main disadvantage of this option: you will need to cross a busy road where there is no pedestrian crossing (if you go to the hotel). This is another "attraction".
And after crossing the road to the hotel, there is a 50-meter climb up the mountain, and then a descent. The heat is also a difficult task.
And in general the hotel itself is located in the mountains. And the buildings are built uphill. Those who will be placed in the rooms of the Saturn or Uranus building will have to overcome more than 60 steps uphill.
ROOM
Ushatanny, removed superficially. Bed and towels are not changed every day. Bed linen can also be worn out.
The interior is simple. This is about a standard room. There are premium categories with a pool or jacuzzi. There, they say, the rooms are better.
ANIMATION
There is every evening. But for us it was not interesting.
Perhaps this is due to the fact that on our dates there were more guests from Turkey, and the program was more prepared for local vacationers.
NUTRITION
The choice of food is good. Breakfast is standard (eggs, pancakes, vegetables, cold cuts). And for lunches and dinners there are always several types of meat, fish. There were enough sweets and fruits (watermelons, melons, apples, grapes, pears, plums). Basically everything is delicious. But it's monotonous. All food is served by waiters. The staff does not know Russian, English is also bad. Therefore, to choose food you have to poke your finger. Alcohol of normal quality (beer, wine, sparkling, liqueurs, tinctures, cocktails made from stronger alcohol).
BEACH
The most beautiful thing here is the sea. Turquoise, clear. Even those who do not like the sea remain indifferent. The beaches of Oludeniz are sandy, in the area of u200bu200bsetting into the sea - small pebbles, very comfortable. The depth begins almost immediately.
The hotel has an area with sun loungers on Tiger Beach.
The Blue Lagoon is a 5-minute walk away.
Therefore, I am very satisfied with my vacation.
But the hotel has its own nuances, which I want to share so that tourists are aware of it.
