Pleasant impression of the first visit to Turkey. Without a language barrier, without food poisoning, jellyfish stings and other nasty things, injuries. About the hotel: the hotel is like a hotel, better than in our resorts. Cleaning is so-so, and the salary of the maids is beggarly, I took with me a rag, mirrors, I wiped the dust myself. The bed was changed, towels more often, asked when needed. The location of the hotel is very convenient, 5 minutes to the beach. About the beach: entry into the sea is equipped with home-made sandbags, someone made sure that we do not screw up on the cobblestones, there is a bridge nearby on the neighboring beach, you can dive. There are enough umbrellas and sun loungers, everything is free. None of us went wild and in the morning did not take a place under the sun. Among the vacationers were mostly Russians and Ukrainians. A lot of youth howled. The culture of drinking has not developed historically in our country. If not for the diluted alcohol, the unruly red-faced and red-eyed guests could cause a lot of trouble to themselves and others (not to mention their families). The bartenders try to regulate, but then these guests get so angry that they didn’t refill. Even though it's all inclusive, you can't drink all the vodka. They write bad reviews, I think. On the penultimate day of rest in Beldibi there were problems with electricity. It's good that the hotel has its own generator, without air conditioning in such heat it would be hard. On the very last day of August 12, on the entire coast of Kemer, some kind of garbage floated into the sea, we were shocked where the environmentalists were looking. It looks like someone disposed of the trash can like that. Prior to this, the sea was clean for 2 weeks. We were satisfied with the food, although we gained one kg each. But do not expect beef, it is very expensive in Turkey. There are no shrimp in 3 ***. Someone in the reviews wrote about the monotony, I do not agree. Just don't take everything at once. The chefs are great, but, as elsewhere, there is a repeated heat treatment. I never take dressed salads in this heat. Why drink drinks like UPI, ZUKO, and even more so give children, it’s harmful, although decide for yourself. The most unpleasant impression was left by the hotel guides (Katya and Oksana, it seems). I turned the only time with some question, instead of an answer, a lean mine. But when she was talking to her phone, a completely different expression on her face. Then I talked and consulted with the staff at the reception. It is very pleasant to remember both Mehmed and Ceylan. Why these hotel guides are needed at all is not clear. All information is posted on the stand, we were introduced to the hotel without them. Tours are organized by the host, not the tour operator. Shamelessly offer tours for 65 dollars, and local travel agencies the same tour for 20-25 dollars. Have a nice rest, the hotel is not bad, but with small children I would go to the beach with sand and not to Beldebi, where the local substation cannot cope and the environmental service for monitoring garbage dumping does not work
