На любителя For an amateur

What matters is what you like and don't like. I liked the staff and animators. I did not like it - the hotel did not correspond to the Kemer climate.

More. The staff is excellently trained. All issues are resolved quickly, there are no problems with Russian. By climate. Judging by the reviews of friends vacationing at the same time in other resorts, the climate in Kemer is the most humid. For Boran, this is a problem. The hotel consists of two-story buildings, the distance is about 10 meters, between the buildings there are trees, sometimes pines, the balconies are braided with creeping vegetation, they face west. As a result, there may never be sun on the first floors, the air is still - very humid. First we got a room on the first floor. It is dark even during the day and there is a strong musty smell like in the basement, although mold was not found anywhere. The next day they changed the room to the second floor - there is sun in the morning and there is no musty smell.

But it's also humid when you turn on the air conditioner - the first minute it also smells musty. Air conditioning is central, i. e. , unlike split systems, the air does not dry out. After cooling, the humidity is the same. Temperature sensors work disgustingly - if you set it to 26 in the evening - it's 36 midnight, in the morning - 18. You have to get up several times a night and twist your arms. And yet the little ones got sick. If according to the mind, then taking into account the peculiarities of the climate, it is necessary to make high-quality climate control with air drying. But this is not about Boran: (Although there are something like dehumidifiers in the double rooms, the residents are not particularly happy with them - according to them, this is a very noisy device from which you need to drain the condensate yourself.

On the beach - not big but comfortable, there are enough awnings and sunbeds. Given that the beach is pebbly and the sea is _very_ salty, it is not suitable for small ones. There is a pier from which you can jump and a raft on barrels. The water is clean and warm.
In the evening, it brings garbage, the staff from time to time catches it with nets. Perhaps because of the garbage in the evening, many people prefer to swim from the pier. Parasiling boats are constantly sailing - they ride on parachutes. From them in the evening on the water drops of fuel oil. A couple of times I saw excrement in the water - either the parachutists crap themselves in flight, or they couldn’t stand it on the boat.

There are three pools - a small one for children, an adult and a medium one with slides, little bleach - a plus. There are traditionally no free sun loungers for breakfast by the pool. Despite the warning of the administrator Xenia that it is not customary to occupy the sun loungers with towels and the staff removes the towels once an hour - no one does this and the sun loungers are occupied all day and two with one towel. Several cameras are looking at the pool - that is, the security is definitely in the know. To the question "what's the matter?? " - Ksenia made big eyes, very sincerely thanked for the signal and promised to look into it.
Needless to say, nothing has changed. Who will go with the small ones - take one sun lounger before breakfast so that you can go from the beach to the pool to bathe the small ones.

In terms of animation - a lot of different, a lot for children. Children's club - can take children for half a day, in the evening a children's disco with prizes and medals, after it - cartoons in the children's club. But be careful - you need to make sure that the girls do not unscrew the condo to a minimum. Several children got sick. For me, the best animation is volleyball on the beach. For women - a lot of different aerobics and dances.


The area is not big. Who travels with small ones - this is a plus - they quickly get used to it and it's not scary that they get lost. Very well-groomed. Several times I noticed how the manager personally picked up dry leaves from the lawns) There is only one restaurant - half indoors, half outside. Air conditioning inside, fans outside. Who will be traveling with children - be careful with air conditioners - the temperature difference is very strong.
Better be patient outside. There are two bars and fast food. The bars offer free cocktails from variations of local alcohol and soda. Real alcohol and cocktails for a fee. I can’t say anything about fast food and alacarte - I didn’t visit.

Big plus - wi-fi throughout the territory including the beach. At first there were problems with setting up on a macbook, but the staff did everything possible. If you have several laptops or smartphones, ask to create an account with a password for each device. By default, login by room number and date of birth, but if there are several laptops, you have to enter it every time you connect.

As for food - the first days it seems that it is a lot and different, then you notice that for the most part there are variations of vermicelli, lettuce and chicken. Meat in Turkey is expensive, so basically chicken is in a dozen options. Once every few days "themed" dinners - but it's the same chicken and vermicelli but under different flags. Delicious bread and mini-pizza are cooked right on the spot.
There are different porridges for children, but you need to try - once the porridge turned out to be sour. Alcohol is not five stars. You can drink beer and brandy. Vodka is diluted with water, cognac "Napoleon" is better not to try (rakia, however, was also one of the cheapest). Juices are traditionally UPI, but you can buy fresh juices from oranges, apples and carrots for $ 2.5. This is a plus - other hotels do not have this either. Before dinner, the chef and the manager try the food with great show off, but this does not always help (see porridge), they made cabbage rolls in a large cauldron a couple of times - delicious, but sometimes they are raw on top. There are three or four types of fruit, there is always no queues. In general, there are no queues - plus a small hotel.


In general, the result - a big minus is the inconsistency with the climate. The rest is dominated by the pros, although each reveals some jamb. If the salty sea does not bother you, you can recommend traveling with small ones, but not in July. Many Russians come every year and are very happy.

More or less like this.
