When choosing a hotel, I was seduced, first of all, by a rather low price for a five. In general, we were satisfied, everything was at a good level: food, rooms, territory, location.
We arrived at the hotel by noon, naturally, very tired. We were marinated for half an hour, and then a "sympathetic" manager approached - a dark-haired lad of indeterminate nationality - called himself Maxim and asked what kind of room we would like: with a view of the sea, mountains or a garbage dump and a dusty road. He should be thanked for a good number. Such impudence is simply jarring! Went to look at the numbers: one is better than the other. I said that I would not thank anyone, let him give any number. He was terribly offended, puffed up like a bubble, but gave a 3-bed room (there were two of us) with an amazing view of the mountains and the orange grove (apparently it simply could not be worse). For the whole rest, he turned up his nose and never greeted us, well, to hell with him, we did not suffer from this. Perhaps this was the only unpleasant episode of our holiday.
Separately, I want to note the animation: it's just super! An international team of animators, where Ice (a brilliant showman) and Hedgehog (a girl with a mohawk on her head) stood out, every day they worked conscientiously and from the heart, and moreover, in Russian! In general, it’s hard to surprise and cheer me up with something, but I haven’t laughed like that for a long time. The distance from the beach, of course, is a minus, but we didn’t suffer much from this, on the contrary, we went to the beach on foot to stretch ourselves. Tez-tour generously organized a free excursion (shopping) to Antalya: they regretted that they went, did not buy anything - wasted time! I really liked Kemer - a beautiful, clean and tidy town. But although there are a lot of shops, there is nothing special to buy: the assortment is the same as in our markets, in a word - rags, but all sorts of junk. In addition, disproportionately high prices, and none of the sellers are bargaining, and they behave quite arrogantly, they snickered, however. In general, it feels like you are relaxing somewhere in the Caucasus: all around you can hear Russian speech, all the sellers, the room service at the hotel are demolished, but they speak Russian.

My advice is to go on vacation in a good mood (nothing will spoil my holiday! ) and not get hung up on trifles. Happy holidays everyone.
