We went in the velvet season with a group of 6 adults and 3 children. Turkey at this time in terms of climate is just great! When it is already cool in Kyiv, when you arrive in Antalya you get 30 degrees, the sun is not so hot and the water is comfortable 27-28.
Went through Tez Tour, all approx. WindRose flew without a hitch, oddly enough (the experience with Crete was unpleasant in this sense). Surprisingly, on the way to the hotel we were not brought to some shopping centers, only at the end were the traditional Turkish sweets))) Who did not have time to buy? ))
The hotel area is just huge. At first, the eye rejoiced at the central entrance with 5 stars (before that rested only in 4). At the reception for a surcharge of $ 75. our standard room was changed to a two-room one, and we also chose to live on the first or second floor (we chose the second floor, maybe the first floor was damp). Mini-cars were brought to our houses together with suitcases.

But the high spirits ended when they entered the room. The number fund has been raised, although it was renovated last year. In short, I've seen numbers and better.
Food just sucks, but don't stay hungry. At first there were a lot of people - the tables did not have time to clean and set for the next, the dishes were not replenished sometimes, you chase plates, cups. They cooked badly - some leftovers passed to others, the fish was fried dry, forever this chicken, which is always and everywhere. What I personally came off - dried olives and baklava.
Infrastructure - everything is quite decent. There was little fuss near the pool - people periodically slipped and fell, only then collected water. Plus for children slides. Minus - the children's club knows where the hell (what an idiot locked him there! ) While all life is focused on the heel pool-beach, the child must be taken to the club almost to the main entrance, it's 5 minutes. Like nonsense, but inconvenient! ! ! !!
For those who are on vacation, everything should be comfortable! Here I am satisfied with the hammam. The men bought us a hammam with a massage from the operator. I thought they would make a blunder in 5 minutes like it was last time, but no, everything is ok, and a good tan turns out good))
Excursions were organized by themselves. Rent a car at the hotel (do not forget to bargain if you go there))). We went to Mira Kekov by mini-vein. In the world, an obsessive aborigine offered his super yacht for $ 100. Arrived accompanied by yachts and boats. In short, the trough was not worth the stated amount. We started to choose ourselves, and this reptile reptile broke all our prices. As a result, we rented a 27-meter boat, very decent for only $ 200 for 4 hours (maybe cheaper if not for this ... ). The captain and his family tried very hard, even put on a captain's uniform, gave us mini-tours in broken English. While we were swimming in the parking lot, he caught a fish.

His family prepared food on the spot - delicious and the prices are normal, he cooked us fresh fish for free. They amused the Slavic soul and did not offend the captain, he honestly deserved))) Went to Kemer for souvenirs. Traded everywhere and with everyone. There are good things, there are not many, look closely.
I can make the following conclusion. Turkey is a bit different. Choose a hotel carefully, and most importantly, that the focus was on the European, not the Slavic tourist. Marco Polo is 98% for ours, the service suffers from this! ! ! ! !
