Hello everyone, I’ll say right away that the story will be long because it hurts.
We went to Turkey for the first time, before that we were in Egypt and traveled around Europe.
When we rested in Egypt, we were all assured that a troika in Turkey is a five in Egypt.
I would like to look them in the eyes again. Okay, let's start in order.
After reading a lot of reviews about those hotels that we were offered in a "gallop across Europe" I chose SUNLAND RESORT & SPA. In terms of price-reviews was, in my opinion, very personal.
Days on the road and here we are. The hotel is beautiful and new. Arriving at about 9 am, we were offered to leave our things and go to have breakfast, after which we were promised to be accommodated immediately.

Immediately, it is in Turkey 2.5 - 3 hours. We were settled at about 12. Everyone shouted indignantly, but this did not work at the reception. The first to settle were two girls who sat on the knees of either the owner of the roofing felts, or a person close to him. The representative of Kariya Tour, Mustafa (his mother), immediately ran away and we did not see him again that day.
Most of all, the hotel was almost empty during the May holidays. And imagine how they will settle at full load, for example, in June. One more moment. When one woman came and asked to be moved to a room with a sea view due to her cold, she was told that
you either have to pay extra 10 bucks a day or wait for 3 o'clock in the afternoon when the sun reaches her side. We were given a room, by pure chance, with a sea view. If not for this, then I would have lowered the score by another ball by 2. By the way, everyone who lived with a view of the mountains complained very much about the noise from passing cars. The room is clean and beautiful. Cleaned up every day. In general, the whole hotel as a building is good, but damn it somehow everything is “not up to the mark”.
A few words about food and drink. There is something to drink, the beer is not bad though, as usual, almost non-alcoholic, there is gin, vodka, Malibu, Campari and Baileys, everything is local but quite tasty. The first couple of days like nothing, turkey, chicken. Lots of greenery
Types of 8 olives.
Sweet is also edible (not all of course). But after a couple of days, even the chicken was gone, for which the line was already lined up. Everything, there is nothing. Soy meat patties for lunch are common, since there is nothing else. Soups are terrible, there was never beef. Nothing to eat between breakfast, lunch and dinner. There were no snacks on the beach at all, there were cakes near the hotel from 4 to 7 it seems that you have to wait 20 minutes because they are prepared by one woman by hand. Ice cream does not count, although it was, but also at a certain time, which often did not coincide with the desire to eat it, but it’s not a hunt to go from the beach. If you suddenly overslept lunch or dinner, then you can be left without sweets, everything was more or less tasty immediately swept away and no longer served. Same story with meat.

For breakfast, there is nothing but undercooked scrambled eggs and burnt pancakes. And these are not my quibbles, I generally find fault with little. The program that we were given indicated a brunch. Sori is not there.
I went to ask at the reception, they say we don’t know, ask in the kitchen, they just do they say they work separately. Where is this seen???
We got together on an excursion, departure at 5:30 in the morning, I went to the reception for a pocket lunch or, as they say, ask for a lunch bag. They answered that they don’t have such a thing, and if we want, they can feed us at any time, even at 5 in the morning. What to do, agreed. We go down at 4:50 down the restaurant is closed. We go to the reception, they say wait they say now they will bring everything,
After 5 minutes, a Turk came and brought two rolls of foil, each with a sandwich from half a loaf. No juice, no apple. In general, such in the top five HIGH QUALITY AI give out breakfasts (dogs). Speaking of fruit apples, there were only oranges and apples, despite the fact that strawberries are around the corner for 2 bucks a kilo. It was also indicated that we can have dinner once in the Ottoman and Italian restaurants. The first three days we went on excursions and sunbathed, there was no time for them.
Then we went to sign up, you need to sign up in a day, like a damn president. They say that you didn’t have time for today, it’s still unknown for tomorrow, come back in the evening. In the evening, the same story, the next one is released on the 3rd, then when we fly away, I cursed and went.
Conclusions: food - Mr. , reception, it would be better if it did not exist at all.
Now about the positive aspects, as I already wrote, the hotel itself. New, fresh.
The staff is normal. Good animation, went to their evening shows a couple of times, laughed to tears.

I will also write a few words about excursions. Mustafa scared us very much that they would steal us, etc.

But at that time we had already taken two excursions and the issue was resolved. By the way, they cost twice as much. A hundred meters to the left of the hotel there is a tour company "Maxwell Tour", where we took our tickets. The first trip was to the hammam - a Turkish bath asked for 20 bucks, went for 15 although I think it's real and cheaper.
In general, everything is not bad considering the price, but the sauna is certainly a spree, it is probably 20 years old, everything is old, shabby.
Then we went to Pamukkale. They told me to drive for three hours, but everything took from 5:30 to 23:30.
At first, a large bus did not fill up and we were transferred to a small type of minibus,
There is very little legroom, I couldn’t fit with my 185 cm. When a guide sat down with us in Antalya, there was no place for him and he rode standing for an hour, then he took a stool in a cafe.
The road took about 6 hours due to stupid stops for a divorce for money, then carpets, then silver, then onyx, then some other crap. Because of this, the impression of the trip was very spoiled, the guide himself was late all the time, then we realized why, after pamukale (where it’s very cool, I advise everyone) he came about 15 minutes later all red. In short, he got drunk. At first he began to talk about Turkey, and ended with obscene jokes.
On the way we were fed twice, though the food was very tasteless.
And all the drinks are paid, like tea for three dollars. So bring water and a towel with you.
Cleopatra pool towel.

And so, if you are going to Turkey, it is better to look for an alternative to SUNLAND RESORT & SPA
and Queen Elizabeth (those who went with us to the airport spoke about her even worse)
And if you are already in SUNLAND RESORT & SPA, then take the company and then everything will be nothing.

Have a good rest.

I forgot, the beach is small. There is no pier, there is only a small staircase, which is clearly not enough and the entrance to the water on a large stone is not buzzing.
