We rested in this wonderful hotel from May 11 to 20. We chose it based on reviews and ratings, besides, our friends rested there and highly recommended the hotel. We liked everything very much, the rest was 100% successful, even though there were two cloudy and rainy days (but we walked a lot these days, it was not hot). Indeed, the hotel is very well maintained, just licked and brought to perfection. It compares favorably with nearby hotels. We walked a lot, so every time we passed other hotels we compared them with ours, and I did not find one that I liked more than ours.
There were no shortcomings for us. But if you want, you can find them. I tried on the role of a fastidious tourist and specifically began to look for something to complain about, thus having fun. Here's what I was able to find:
- small numbers (maybe someone needs big ones, for example, to dance there : ))),

- weak animation (daytime programs are normal, but the evening show leaves much to be desired, although the guys are trying very hard, they are climbing out of their skin),
- short beach towels (or your legs or head will lie on a bare sunbed),
- UPI juices in vending machines (and which hotels don't have them? ),
- no scales in the room (the food was so delicious that I gained 2 kg!!! ),
- it’s not very pleasant to walk barefoot on pebbles (but this is Kemer! ),
- all ripe lemons were peeled off by vacationers (we found only a couple of pieces to photograph them),
- joints are felt on the yellow slide (I personally didn’t peel off my back, I just felt these joints when I rode, but I talked in a restaurant with one vacationer and she showed me an abrasion on her back from this slide).
In general, these are the shortcomings that I found. I couldn’t find a single broken plate (although I somehow got a chipped tea saucer), cockroaches, flies, mosquitoes were also not noticed, linen and towels were always white and clean - not a single spot, the safe and plumbing worked properly, the room was so cleanly cleaned that we walked there barefoot; in the restaurant and bars, dirty plates were promptly removed and there were practically no queues for food (only at the very beginning of dinner there were small queues).
And now in more detail on the points.
1. Hotel rooms:
Small, but clean and comfortable, everything you need is there. We lived on the second floor in room 330 (this is the third row from the sea). On the second floor it's good - a balcony, beautiful views open up. But I would not want to live on the first one, firstly - they say that it is damp; secondly, everything is very transparent, with the balcony door open, those passing by can see what you are doing. I liked that there was a clothes dryer on the balcony. In May, it was not hot and not humid, so the laundry dried out quickly enough.
2. Territory:
The area is small, but very well maintained, just perfect. Beauty is just a fairy tale! Words can't describe it - see photos.
3. About the Internet:

There is free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel, so the Internet is available around the clock from anywhere in the hotel, the connection is very good. It was convenient to sit with a netbook in a bar, slowly sipping a cocktail.
4. Services for children:
Paradise for children! Strollers, cribs, playpens, inflatable children's pools, baby monitors, pots, etc. are provided free of charge. There is a children's club, and it is clear that the children really like to play there, they always go happy, with pretty painted faces. In May, there were many children of preschool age, they behaved normally, they did not interfere with anyone. But I imagine what is done in the hotel during the summer holidays!!!?? ? Children, of course, are good... But when there are too many of them, sometimes you can’t rest normally.
5. Nutrition:
Large selection, fresh and tasty. Even salads can be safely eaten - they are fresh. There were not enough fruits, but this was due to the season (there were red and green apples, oranges, unripe cherry plums, some unknown yellow fruit (I will post a photo of it), sometimes bananas, they gave strawberries once a week). I was pleased with the large selection of cheeses for breakfast (10 types), neatly cut into pieces, and additionally cut in front of you so that the cheese is always fresh. Of those that we usually eat, there were edam and maasdam, the rest are somehow too salty, for an amateur. The snack bar has good quality fast food: cheeseburgers, hamburgers, pizza (made with ingredients of your choice), salads, french fries, baked potatoes, ice cream (several types), cakes and cookies.
6. Sports:
In my opinion, the sports programs are good. Animators conduct the following classes: aqua aerobics, step, bocha, volleyball, belly dance, yoga, darts.
Canoes, windsurfing and pedal boats are free of charge at the hotel. Table tennis and badminton rackets are also provided free of charge. Not far from the hotel you can cheaply rent a regular bicycle (it seems $ 10 per day, $ 5 for half a day).
7. About the tour operator "Anex-Tour":

I was terribly afraid to fly through this tour operator. The entire Internet is flooded with negative reviews about Anex Tour. But there was no alternative, when we were going to buy tours to Boran, only Anex Tour had room in the hotel. I was seriously frightened, I even started a topic here on the forum about Anex, everyone comforted me there and said that everything was not so scary : ))) I raped the travel agent with questions about Anex, she also tried to convince me that everything was fine, that Anex a major tour operator in Turkey, they have been working with him for a long time and customers had no complaints about him. But I still had doubts, I was afraid that suddenly they wouldn’t meet me, wouldn’t take me to the right hotel, but would settle me in an unknown place. In fact, everything turned out very well. Met, placed - everything is fine, no worse than other tour operators with whom I had a chance to relax. The buses are comfortable, the guides are friendly, polite, with a sense of humor. The hotel guide did not impose excursions, answered all questions, was always available (he is constantly in the hotel). In general, we have only positive impressions from Anex.
8. About the weather:
Out of ten days, two days were overcast and rainy. Although we were still lucky - the preliminary weather forecast was much worse, but in reality everything turned out to be not so bad. The rest of the days were partly cloudy or clear weather. The air in the sun is 25-28 (sometimes it heated up to 30). In the evenings it is cool - you need to wear a light jacket or sweater. I swam in the sea (water 20 degrees), sometimes even twice a day. I am surprised at myself - in fact, I'm a merzlyachka, but here it was somehow nice to freshen up in cool water, I even liked it. And after swimming, you can lie in the sun for a long time and it’s not hot, because. the body takes a long time to warm up.
Summary:
The hotel is, of course, a fairy tale! Beauty, cleanliness, comfort in everything. Everything for a great holiday - a bunch of some pleasant little things that other hotels did not have. Quality in everything. All this thanks to the general manager. Well done Aziz Bay - he brought the hotel to the ideal. And it is clear that he himself likes that under his leadership the hotel is flourishing. He is very attentive - he remembered that I wrote him a letter, met us and talked, each time later, when we met with him, we greeted and exchanged pleasantries. I wish the hotel prosperity, and I hope to stay there again, if there is such an opportunity!
