Отлично отдохнули Have a great rest

There will be a lot of text.

My husband and I went from the Annex tour, departure from Kyiv. Arrived quickly, no surprises. We arrived at the hotel, left our things at the reception and were sent to breakfast. When we returned, we were introduced to the owner. He has such a hobby, he lives in a hotel himself, meets guests personally, "and talking" is sacred for all Turks. After we were immediately settled in the room. By the way, the room, although small, is of very high quality: soft clean carpet, beautiful massive wooden furniture, a large comfortable bed, strewn with flowers with swans laid out from towels (as for me - superfluous), the bathroom is very clean, everything you need (shampoo, soap , shower caps, and other trifles - everything is in stock and replenished). A bar with water (4x0.5), a pack of paper handkerchiefs, a needle and thread - just everything was provided for! Even in the bathroom the bags are hygienic for the "lady".

By the way, it is clear that the repair was done a couple of years ago, but they did it very well, it will definitely not be needed for another 2-3 years.

Food. Just wonderful. There are a lot of Germans in the hotel and this one is like a sign of quality: always the freshest European cuisine. It is indicative that CONSTANTLY there were: among salads - Olivier and vinaigrette; among the sweet - real chocolate brownie and cheesecake; among the side dishes - vegetable casseroles, steamed vegetables, a dozen types of pasta to choose from, which will be cooked right in front of you; among the main dishes - beef, fried fish. Separately, it is necessary to mention the barbecue "compartment", in which for breakfast they always cooked pancakes, pancakes, fried eggs - both ordinary fried eggs and scrambled eggs with stuffing. For lunch and dinner, there were ALWAYS grilled vegetables, whole fish and several types of meat + minced meat cutlets.
In general, there is a separate song about dinners: in the description of the hotel on some site it was "themed parties are held near the pool" and take it as you want. But it turned out that every evening during dinner there was something enchanting: I personally liked the Italian evening the most, with risotto, mussels, grilled shrimp and squid, lasagna and a Godfather-style animation show. Dishes "from the chef" every evening were simply amazing! In general, I can talk a lot about food, so I’ll finish by saying that there were at least 5 types of fruit (super strawberries), and that watermelon is not a fruit, it’s generally a separate table. Ah yes! Children's menu, mothers did not take a steam bath - semolina, jelly, mashed potatoes and cutlets were always available. I don’t want to talk about snack bars with pizza (make it yourself), hamburgers, hot dogs, grilled sandwiches, donner kebab (pork! ! ) and oven baked potatoes...

And finally - the freshest piping-hot Turkish cakes with fillings (Mongolian barbecue and a strong chef at the oven), standard gozlim (Turkish woman and thin dough, and next to the machine with ayran and cups, wash this down), and Turkish viscous ice cream 4 th species at any time ...The trouble, in general, they have feeding there. Our exposure lasted exactly 3 days. And then we decided that we would lose weight at home. More about a la carte (fish and international) is also so, indicative - by appointment, free of charge, unlimited number of visits. We went, ate shrimp-fish and decided that there was no point - in the main restaurant it was no worse and at the "thematic" dinner it was clearly more fun.

Beach. In general, the crystal clear sea and awesome mountain views are a standard set of probably any hotel in Kemer (on the first line). The rest is nuance.
Boran Mare has a nuance, it is a wide beach, imported sand, paths made of wooden boards, a cooler with water and cups under a canopy, canopies with green translucent roofs, sun loungers with capes made of absorbent material (not oilcloth), tables, trash cans, and separate coasters for empty glasses-plates. Although. . Slavic brothers crap where they lay. . It was embarrassing. Garbage was not brought to the urn, the glasses were thrown into the sand next to the sun loungers. . Well, in general, that's it. .

Bars. Snack bar already mentioned, food, sweets and ice cream - free access. Drinks - various cocktails, tea and coffee. Moreover, "tea" is Turkish tea in a glass cup, and "boiling water" is a cup of water, and choose a bag yourself. Nuance: a separate machine and glasses for lemonade, and at the bar there is a machine with "Pepsi-mirinda-sevenup" (and not "cola-fanta-sprite", which personally pleased me)) Bartenders ...oh, this is something, it is necessary separately to tell...

Staff! !

Turkish boys - waiters, bartenders, photographers and animation: young, smiling, radiant, constantly in a good mood, joking, laughing, it feels like they are just in a hotel in a buzz! Girls...Uh...ladies, think ten times before you go with your husband. Girls-waitresses, student girls from Kyrgyzstan. In Russian without an accent, but many words are not understood. I don’t know who selected them, but this person is clearly obsessed with anime, they are all cute! Fragile oriental girls with olive skin, huge eyes, beauty, modest, helpful, inconspicuous, sweet smiles ...And there are a lot of them! Trouble, in short! In the rooms, the servants are mostly Turkish women, both young and old, and fir-trees, not standard black and ugly, but black and pretty! There is absolutely no feeling that someone is saying something bad behind your back. Absolutely not!

Animation.
I am not a fan of this business at all, that is, we did not go to the "show", did not participate in the games, but from the outside I can even say that they are super. Everything that was started ...I had the feeling that they live it, that they are like children who play and go headlong into the game. For those who are interested, find Zinet Karadenizli on Facebook, she is their main one. In general, you can find the hotel's Facebook page and see photos. In particular, in 2012 the pools and water slides were redone, there are photos of the process and what happened))) They built it very quickly, set it up and it’s generally enviable how they build and repair ...They do it quickly and it turns out very beautifully.

Entertainment. On the first day we found ping-pong and table football. On the second day, we were already playing on the tennis court (racquet balls at the reception). And then we got to air hockey and a slot machine with a basketball basket (this is already paid, 1 token = 1 dollar).
Water slides - turn on for a long time, there is no flea market (in general, no one was pushing anywhere, despite the small territory, neither in a restaurant, nor on the beach, nor for ice cream food, nor on slides, I don’t even know why - the hotel was packed, the season was already started). There is also a separate fenced area for water motor sports on the beach, but we didn’t try it there, there wasn’t enough time.

Anex tour. Last year we went from Turtesse and it seems that Anex is cooler. Another feature of the hotel: the guide from the Anex tour, Shaban, is constantly present at the hotel. Calm, unobtrusive and friendly.

We tortured him a little with excursions))) By the way, I planned not to overpay and buy excursions on the street (weather forecasts were sad, but it turned out that it only rained for one day), but in the end, on the very first day, we bought a trip to Kemer from Shaban to the hammam (just to feel the color) and after a couple of days to go fishing in Ulupinar (my husband really wanted to, it’s boring for me, but in principle, nothing like that). And Antalya (gold-leather-textiles were of little concern, but they wanted to look at the waterfall and walk through the center of the Old City) Shaban did not give. And he told how to get to the Goynek canyon (but it was WAH! just a delight, but the legs fell off when they returned)

Everything! Finally. The hotel for the Slavs (there are about 50%) is a family hotel. The picture that a child, mother and grandmother came to rest is typical. Or a mom-dad family, two children and a mother-in-law. The remaining 50% are elderly Germans. Quiet, calm. : -)
