The hotel name LE CHATEAU DE PRESTIGE can be translated as "Charming Castle" or "PRESTIGE VINEYARD", I prefer the latter.

In some way the name of the hotel justifies itself. Well, not a farm, of course, not a cottage, not a vineyard, but something from simple village customs is present in the hotel.
I'll start with such an element alien to life in nature as an air conditioner. It was present, but emitted exceptionally warm air. At the reception, they explained to me for a long time that the air conditioner was not broken, it was blowing warm air according to the hotel policy. I suggested that it was better not to explain, but to turn on the cool air and insisted that the technician check everything. Everything is correct, the air conditioner was in order.

How would you do it on our farm? That's right, wiping the sweat with sheets, they would open all the windows and doors. We did that too. And since we were there at the end of May (from 26.05. to 02.06. ) the nights were still cool, and this could save us.
Question: who flies through a rustic window and wants to bite you? You guessed it...Do you think there are no mosquitoes in Kemer? There is, it turns out. If you are going there - take fumigators, fumitoks and other raptors.
Another ambush of these sultry evenings was the view of the sea. Well, who in the vineyard or cottage has a sea view? No, and it shouldn't be. And we had a hotel (although the sea was almost on the horizon), and it was not right. So, to correct this shortcoming, every day until 12 midnight discos were held in the hotel courtyard. We no longer needed any view of the seas, we were ready to breathe warm humid air and sweat on hot beds, closing the doors to the balcony, if only the sounds of the disco were quieter. It seems to me that the music itself was less than the screams of a disc jockey who, without ceasing, cracked in the wrong Russian, German and English (I hope that at least he spoke Turkish without errors). You say you had to go dance or be patient
. But how to explain this to our two daughters, 5 and 9 years old, who fell asleep at 21 and for some reason shuddered in their sleep from his especially expressive cries. In general, take not sea-view, but land-view. Save money and sleep peacefully.

Now about the service. Does anyone in the country use the word "service"? This is ridiculous. Yes, a woman came who did not understand Russian, English or German. Yes, she took the “baksheesh”, usually 1 dollar, which we left for her. And that's it! Vacuuming, wiping glass ...- this is not our way, not natural. Do you want to change your bed? There were two towels, and after cleaning there was one left? Forgot to put toilet paper and pour soap? Didn't get a bottle of water? Guys, take it easy. As dad Voronin said in the television series of the same name: “What kind of toilet paper ...I remember that we went to the forest for a week as a child, so only nettles grew there ... ” This is natural, viticultural 

I'll tell you about the simple-minded village natives. For example, about the tribe of photographers. They came up with an interesting lure - vouchers for a free photo. Our child won one of these. We approached the photographer on the beach, showing the voucher: “To you with this piece of paper? ". Turns away: "Don't understand Rus"  Smiling. It is clear that messing around is not a hunt, especially for free. “And in English? ”, I ask. "Well, go to the hotel, there's a photo studio there. " Came there. "Yes, for free, let's do a photo shoot. " “We don’t need a session, ” I say, we have one photo. "Let's do a session, choose the best photo. " For about 40 minutes, a photo-aboriginal dragged us around the hotel. The youngest at the end already started to yell and said that she would not be photographed anymore 
I took about 40 photos. We looked at the computer, not bad. "What is the price? - we ask. One photo - 8 dollars. “And if you download it to a flash drive? » Still $8.
A lady sits down next to us and starts a long conversation that there are a lot of photos, more than 100 (they made collages), that all the photos are professional, that one photo costs $ 8, but if we agree to take a disk with at least 100 photos, then she will not tell the owner, and sell us $1 each electronic piece. For comparison, I’ll say that I myself made no less professional photos, more than 400 in number, and even videos. So, with such prices, we can say that a little more and we would pay off our trip 

I really didn't like that they put plastic bracelets on our hands. Before that, we went to 5-star hotels in the same Kemer, they did without it. I understand that this is for security reasons. The fact that anyone can enter the hotel. The beach, actually a small water park, is located across the road and the local population is allowed there for a fee: $ 25 - adult, $ 15 - a child over 6 years old, up to 6 - free of charge.
From the beach on the bridge you can easily go to the territory of the hotel itself. I myself left the hotel in the evening, then returned in the dark, covering the bracelet with a jacket, no one stopped me. In this regard, I recall the hysteria of one lady, which happened on the penultimate day of our stay. She was robbed. It seems that on the beach, I did not understand, it was inconvenient to ask. The lady was hysterical, swearing at the Turks and Turkey, shouting something about stolen money and jewelry, and demanding the police and the owner of the hotel. The owner came out to her. Although I doubt that this is the owner  I did not see the police.

What we liked:
• Large territory
• Many slides - this is the main reason why the wife insisted on this hotel, they wanted to entertain the children.
• Friendly waiters.
• Good variety of food.


Next year we will go here again only if we do not find a really "Charming Castle", at the same price. And be sure to take fumigators.
And now, a review that my daughter wrote. She began to write it in Turkey.

Hello!
My name is Dasha. I am 9 years old. I want to tell you about the hotel "Le chateau de prestige". Almost everything is good there. I will talk about a lot. There are very comfortable rooms. Rooms on the 1st floor are comfortable. Also on the 2nd floor. And on the 3rd floor rooms with stairs. At first I lived on the 2nd floor. But for some reason I didn't feel comfortable there! The number was "4.205". There was no air conditioning, the beds were not comfortable, there was no water in the shower. We then moved in one night. We moved to the 3rd floor. The number was called "3.312". It was cozy there. But there was also no air conditioning. Even on the street near the hotel worked "Kids club" (this is a children's club). There are several teachers there. Every day you play some game, bowling, water polo, football.
And in the evenings at 9 o'clock in front of my room on the stage they organize a disco (every evening) To call the children to the disco, the children walk through the streets and the hotel and shout "MINI DISCO, MINI DISCO" several times. And there your child can repeat after the teacher and dance. Next I will talk about the pools. There are several children's pools, and there are for children and older. There is a swimming pool near the playground, and there is an elephant in the water park. And for older children and adults there are yellow and blue slides. Yellow slides almost near the hotel. There are 3 of them. And in the water park there are blue slides. There are 5 of them. Also at 11-12 o'clock they do exercises in the water (in the water park). There are also many bars and cafes there. There are burgers, fries and various drinks. What if your child does not feel well, or has a temperature, but you do not know what it is? On the -1 floor there is a doctor who speaks English. There is also a hairdresser's and several sports corners.

There is also a room in which there are rides and there is also free ice cream. In order to play slot machines, you need to buy a token. Ice cream is served from 3 to 4 o'clock. The food at the hotel is delicious and wonderful. And if you hang a sign on the door “Clean up the room, please” and come to the room, they can leave you a large bottle of water and you will also see swans on the bed or bows 
