Rested at the hotel from 15 to 23 May 2010.

It was feared that the weather would not be very good, because forecast sites predicted a maximum of 19 degrees during the day. Actually it was 30-32 (in the sun), it rained a couple of times, in general, it was very comfortable. True, the sea was cool - 20-22. In the evenings the temperature is about 22.

Pros:
o Large beautiful landscaped area, beautiful sea.
o Convenient location, close to many shops.
o Animation from morning until 23:00 (for those who care: bocha, shooting from a gun, volleyball, water games, gymnastics, ping-pong). Separately, children from 5 years old are taken care of. In the evenings different show programs.
o Nice interior in the rooms, drinks in the fridge for free.
o Several pools, including a wave for the kids and 3 simple water slides.
o Huge pebble beach, and for a fee you can rent wooden relax cabins

Minuses:
o There are no amenities such as shampoo, shower gel, lotion/cream in the rooms.

o If there are no special slippers, then entering the sea is not very comfortable because of the pebbles.
o Not very friendly staff.
o Huge queues at the restaurant (especially for dinner).
o No fitness center (broken units, no ventilation).
o High prices for hamams.
o Paid billiards.
o Noisy (for those who want to escape from the hustle and bustle).
o Vacationers only from the post-Soviet space, who behave like savages.

Excursions were taken to Ginza, because everything is at least 2 times cheaper there than at Pegasus.
We went to the Spa-center in Kemer for a hammam. There, for only $20, you can sit in a sauna, steam bath, peeling, foam massage, oil massage. And for another $10 you will be covered from head to toe with chocolate, and you will get a real pleasure. Feelings after the procedures are unforgettable!
We also went to Demre-Mira-Kekova. Our guide was Fiza, a middle-aged woman, she talks very interestingly. She worked as a tour guide in Istanbul for 15 years, after which she moved to the Antalya coast.
He knows a lot and tells interesting stories. Excursion one day, interesting. Stunning landscapes. First we were at the observation deck (altitude 1050m), then we changed from the bus to the steamer, sailed along the islands, saw the sunken ancient city, stopped briefly to swim in the bay, then returning to the bus, went to the amphitheater and after that to the Church of St. Nicholas .


Conclusion: if you are not embarrassed that 100% of the hotel guests are citizens of Russia and the CIS countries, then it is a very good option for a vacation, however, for the price that was in May, and not for the one that has been established now. For 6.000 rub. for two we would choose another hotel in another country.
If you go to this hotel and want silence, then choose buildings 2 and 3, there are no discos in the evenings.
