Recuperation/Нирвана Recuperation/Nirvana

Resting in winter. Holidays for solitude, not suitable for those who want a vibrant nightlife.
Positive: Despite the small territory - cozy, picturesque, pine trees near the shore, mountains in the distance. In the mornings and evenings, the calm sea looked very beautiful, an amazing view of the bridge in the water. Sunbeds are not cleaned in winter on this elite beach - a small, but such a beautiful wooden platform, a changing cabin. In the evening, sunbeds are folded only when the last client leaves the beach, in the morning everything is arranged very carefully again. You can ask at the reception for blankets and with a cup of cappuccino, tea or, for those who are freezing in the evening, with cognac to spend the sun on sunbeds, looking at the waves (the beach bar closes in the evening, I don’t remember what time, so go for a drink before closing or take it to a cafe where pancakes baked in plastic cups. The only thing is, when the bar on the beach closes, not all waiters are allowed to go with a drink from the cafe to the beach).
Fresh juices in the vitamin bar almost all day (apple, carrot, orange, gray, cucumber - you can ask to mix the two together). For us it was important then not parties, but rest, sea air, silence and vitamins.

Liked the outdoor grill, in the garden, next to the beach, we only dined there. The sun almost always shone, at lunchtime you could get very burned, hiding in the shade of the gazebos, where there were only 1 or 2-3 tables, because it created the feeling that you were alone, but at the same time - in a restaurant. The cats did not interfere, they made me laugh with their concerts and showdowns. Why didn't we dine at the main restaurant? Delicious grilled fish, garden and proximity to the sea.
In the morning on the beach there is very beautiful Turkish slow meditative music (no boom-boom-boom typical for southern countries), the sound of birds singing, polite Turkish hotel workers arrange sunbeds in their places. We came early to the beach, sat down at the tables on the promenade and drank, alone with the sea, our coffee (which we took from the take away cafe along the way). At first, beach workers appeared, then, later, a yoga course began under the pines on the grass. From the sun, music and an unusually calm atmosphere, you can enter a trance. During dinner, it was sometimes noisy, often German women of retirement age laughed loudly and incessantly. At first, we, who had escaped from the busy urban pace of life, did not like it. But a week and a half passed, and we, too, often began to laugh for no reason. Kemer influences us so much that there is something like in the South Coast.
Although alcohol is included - we were not interested in beer, wine and cocktails. Sometimes in the evening they drank a little local cognac, so as not to freeze and against the flu (I recommend, the taste is acceptable). White and red dry wines were also of good quality (compared to other Turkish hotels).
For non-vegetarians, there was a small variety of meat, but good meat in the form of lamb was only twice and they obviously tried to give it less, you had to be persistent. Very tasty Turkish meat dishes. There were honeycombs with honey, various jams (very sweet), pancakes (very thick in a restaurant, it is better to eat in a cafe), ready-made salads seemed fatty and sometimes sour, they mixed it themselves - there were a lot of vegetables, just use yogurt for dressing. Fruits: apples, plums, oranges, chopped pomegranates, bananas - not always true.

Slippers and a beautiful waffle robe, nice smelling toiletries, fragrances are sprayed everywhere in the hotel very pleasant aroma, unpretentious, simple but cute purist design in the room. Pretty good service in the restaurant and bars.
Disadvantages:
1) Several German-speaking tourists of retirement age in a bad mood who tried to push their shoulders at the buffet or in the aisle. But such could be people of any nationality. Not the hotel's fault.
2) Poor quality hair dryer, kept turning off, had to wait for it to cool down after every minute. How many did not complain, they did not change it, they told me to wait until it cools down (?! ) and dry it later. Then he caught fire, straightened out and dyed his hair black, it's good that there were two in the room. Only then did they change it for us. I regret that one of us was very ill at that moment, and were too lazy to complain officially.
3) We were not checked in for a long time, although we were the first to get into the transfer, we had to wait for another couple from Germany for half an hour, and it was unpleasant when they first began to serve this couple at the hotel, although we were the first to enter the lobby. On the attitude towards unaccompanied women in this hotel should work.
4) The restaurant diluted with artificial orange juice.
5) Due to health reasons, they could not often drink alcohol, but when they sometimes asked for cognac, it was noticeable how they tried to fill a smaller amount, even if you asked not to return to the bar, a double dose. The all-inclusive system was unpleasant, especially when you see how much alcohol European pensioners consume next to you.
An unpleasant moment in the lobby bar, when you wait twenty minutes for the ordered tea or drink, but if you approach the bar, they send you back to the table, and then serve laughing pensioners from Europe. and it's not a language barrier - we speak both German and English, but it didn't help. Obviously, pretty European single women are not highly respected by the staff.

6) An animator often approached us, bothered us, intervened in the conversation and interfered with our work. We weren't rude to him, at first it was nice that someone would welcome us. But then it seemed intrusive. After that, it became clear what German and English tourists mean when they write that only Russians are served in Turkey. Not understanding our language, they believe that we are well served, in fact, they sat down and talked to us - whether we wanted it or not.
7) For those who do not like to eat green salads, the food may seem boring after one week.
These little things did not spoil our mood, except for the story with the hair dryer, we recommend this hotel, I'm sure you will like it, leaving from there there is nostalgia, as if parting with a loved one.
We are going this year to Vogue Avangard, but we still miss Amarochka.
