We went to Turkey for the third time, and deliberately chose Kemer, well, I really liked Simena Sun Club last time. It is a pity that there were no places there, so we chose the top five in the neighborhood. Let's face it, from the moment we arrived at Fantasia, we constantly caught ourselves thinking that when comparing these hotels, the advantage was almost always on the side of Simena. But let's not talk about a neighbor, I'll tell you my thoughts about Fantasia.
The sea - no questions, the purest water and a beautiful beach overlooking Mount Olympus, very small pebbles with sand, excellent entry into the water.
Hotel - once it was a beautiful hotel, but today it urgently needs a major overhaul. The carpeting in the corridors is torn in many places, several tiles near the pool are broken, the air conditioning in the main restaurant is somehow stuffy, the rooms on the first floor with a terrace are very damp with terribly black ceilings in the bathroom (I saw it myself).

Service - a very average level, there were three of us with a child, we checked into the room at 14 o'clock, but there were only 2 beds. Only at 4, our requirement was delivered a folding bed for the child, and even then the next morning... And you say de luxe...
Cleaning in the rooms is also without much brilliance, well, they cleaned, yes, they changed towels and bed linen, but without that chic as in Simena.
Vacationers - 90% are families with children, 60 percent are Russian speakers, that is, Russia, Ukraine, the Baltic States, Kazakhstan.
The food is very good, for lunch the choice of meat dishes is a little smaller, of course, but for dinner it is GREAT. The waiters are great, they rustle like bees, and if you give a tip a couple of times, then you will be provided with top-class service. The bars have an excellent selection of spirits and cocktails. A wonderful Turkish A la carte restaurant, and the lamb skewers are just a fairy tale.
The territory of the hotel is rather large, green, but rationally used only in front of the hotel, that is, between the hotel and the sea.
Beach towels are changed without problems at least 3 times a day.
What else ? My opinion is this... The price of this hotel is too high, it is not worth that kind of money, in terms of price-quality ratio, you will find better than five in Turkey
