I will try to tell about all the moments that I remember.
Check-in at the hotel at 14-00, before that we walked around the territory for a couple of hours (we didn’t put money at the reception). We have a family room (two separate rooms) in a separate 5-storey building. Plus - all rooms have a main bedroom window overlooking the sea. Minus - in our room, the second window showed a wall instead of mountains (a feature of rooms ending in numbers 02 and 13 on all floors). As in the rooms of the main building - I do not know. The room features: both a shower cabin and a bathtub; there is a kettle, an electric stove, a supply of coffee and tea, water and beer. The condition of the room is 4+, but we really only spent the night in it. People complained about the weakness of the central air conditioner, but we did not use it even at full capacity. Territory: very green, many old pine trees hanging over the pools. because of this, in the middle of the day there was shade from the trees over part of the pool. My daughter sunbathed on the green grass (although this is not very common in this hotel). There are enough hammocks in the park, so that everyone would have enough to swing. The pools are overly warm in my opinion, but that depended on the hot weather. The pool is big. Slides work 2 out of 3. The sea is with large pebbles, it hurts to go in without protective shoes. But there is never any turbidity in the water, the water is clean and transparent. By the way, there were no strong winds all the time. The sea is consistently warm. The cleanliness of the beach wanted to be better (somewhere on 4), there is small debris here and there. The width of the hotel's beach allowed you to go into the sea, so that there would be no one 10 meters from both sides. There are enough sun loungers both on the beach and in the pool for everyone. It is a pity that 23 of them are just stupidly busy with towels, and no one is there. But this does not seem to be eradicated for a long time. Food: there is everything except pork (who needs pork, take canned food). Huge selection. great quality. Food is offered almost all day. I especially liked it - honey in combs and a variety of baklava, good fruits. Add. Restaurants: French disappointed, fish liked. The hotel staff does not always speak Russian and English, sometimes there are stains on the uniforms of the cooks.
Animation Entertainment: children's super, the best of all previously seen. 6 year old is delighted. Children in the hotel 200-300, no less. Adult animation - the guys are trying, a lot of variety. I played volleyball, my wife did water aerobics and step. There are no complaints about the animation.

Summing up: the hotel is more family, calm. I liked everything, I didn't want to leave. There is no negative from the hotel (so, clean up the beach, cooks and waiters have a cleaner uniform). If possible, we will try to come here again.
PS: we ourselves are from the Crimea, and the trip "from sea to sea" is due precisely to the fact that in Crimea, unfortunately, they have not learned to create the conditions of a "fairy tale" for vacationers for the same money with the same nature.
Happy holidays everyone!
