Good afternoon everyone!
We returned from Akka Alinda hotel. I would like to share my impressions.
1. I liked the hotel very much. (Although now, like in other hotels, there is a redecoration for the season. But it didn’t really bother us. ) There are not many people there now, the main audience is elderly Germans. Very quiet, decent. No one was given any trouble.
There are few Russians.
2. We flew from Pegasus by Orenburg Airlines. No complaints. They feed decently. The flight attendants are friendly.

3. We bought a tour to the cheapest rooms, which are located in the add. case. We arrived very early, at 7.30 in the morning we were already at the hotel. They settled immediately, no one extorted any money. We flew with two families, asked for rooms next to each other - no problem. They settled in the main building, no one asked for money for this either. The room is very decent, everything is clean, the floor is carpeted, the furniture is in good condition, the bed is comfortable. Everything worked properly. Found 8 Russian channels. Only water is put in the minibar, 1.5 liters per day. Safe in the room. There are enough hangers in the closet for a company of soldiers. Everything is very clean in the bathroom, there are bath accessories, when something ends, they report. True, upset the towels. They are, to put it mildly, very old, but perfectly clean. A bathrobe can be rented at the reception for $3 per week. They clean well, on March 8 they wound hearts with fresh flowers, although the tip was left only a couple of times per dollar.
4. Nutrition. The food is very good, even though it is not the season. From other hotels there were complaints about the amount of food and the poor assortment. We have no complaints. Very wide variety, everything is delicious, a lot of pastries. From fruits now there were all kinds of citrus fruits, apples, bananas were given a couple of times. Juices from the breakfast machine are very decent, they do not look like diluted UPI.
5. There are still disadvantages. 1. This is alcohol. The bar now offers vodka, gin, brandy, red, rose, white wine, beer, brandy. Of these, you can only drink beer (Tuborg), vodka, brandy and gin. Everything else is diluted just to obscene. Brandy - brandy-flavored water, wine - terrible sourness. All sorts of cocktails interfere, they are delicious, but alcohol is dripped into it from a pipette. 2. Coffee. It was very strange for a country in which everyone drinks this drink, it was to be faced with the fact that coffee is simply disgusting. Liquid to the point of impossibility and tasteless. Could have had a little decent drink in the lobby bar.
6. I really liked everything in the SPA center. I will not write in detail. The indoor pool is small, but mostly there was no one except us.
7. Separately, I would like to note the work of the animators. They are now few, only three. One only smokes and drinks coffee. So there are two people working. The animation was all day long (although there were 120 tourists in the hotel). Boy Tariq - we named him Energizer.

Starting from breakfast until the night, he tries with all his heart to entertain people. At the same time, he speaks calmly in Russian, German, and a little French. Constantly in different parts of the hotel you can hear his voice. Moreover, he finds an approach to both the ancient Germans and the young Russians. In the morning he drags everyone to exercise, then darts, then aqua aerobics. Our guys invited him to play tennis, he immediately picked up, brought rackets and played with them for 1.5 hours. In the evening, something like a disco takes place in the lobby bar. Fatih is mainly in charge of music, and Tariq lights up. Raises everyone, even our grandparents, who are 80 years old, danced with us. Throughout the day, he rushes around the hotel, then he sits down to talk to one, then to others. Jokes in all languages. We have seen such a picture. A Russian woman of about 50 arrived at the hotel alone. Came for lunch and sat down at a table. Immediately Tarik grabbed his plate and sat down to it so as not to get bored. And until the last day either he or Farikh tried to eat with her. Moreover, the lady most likely ate not very well, because she laughed all the time.
8. Excursions. Who cares, Pegasus now offers not very much, but it's expensive. We have traveled to many countries ourselves, so we decided to rent a car. Pegasus was not taken because of the wildly high price. We took a car with a driver for two days for $110. I liked it very much. He took us to many places, if you are interested, write to the mail, I will give you a phone number and tell you in more detail.
9. In general, the gift from my husband on March 8 turned out to be just wonderful.
