We were skeptical about Turkey and went here for the first time after many good reviews from friends. We were satisfied, believe me, this hotel is one of the few that will give you a lot of pleasure for such ridiculous money. Immediately it is necessary to make a reservation about who is going for what. If you want to take a break from work, a noisy and quarrelsome metropolis, just lie around, sleep, swim, then you are at the right place. People who are actively minded will probably be bored here. On the plus side, the hotel is new and this is important. The room is good, clean, the bathroom is flawless, a balcony, a TV set with 2 Russian channels, the air conditioner works fine, for some reason no one wrote that the doors are opened with a card, the light works from it, the air conditioner, etc. It is much more convenient than with the keys. We arrived at 1300, settled us at 1400, they gave us a room overlooking the sea and the main pool, the view is amazing and did not cost us a penny. I understand that there are also rooms with views of the mountains and the second pool, and the Grand Ring Hotel. The downside of our room was that our favorite compatriots yelled every night on the beach, who definitely should not be poured around the clock. I was ashamed of them quite often, Russian and Ukrainian rudeness is simply amazing, I will not go into details, you must have met such people yourself. But fortunately there were few of them, and I think not least because of the hotel.
They serve breakfast from 7 am to 10 am, then lunch from 12:30 pm to 4 pm, and dinner from 7 pm to 10 pm. From 12 to 16 in the bars on the beach and in the backyard they make pizza, french fries, etc. Bars with drinks are open from morning until night. The food is pretty monotonous, for an amateur. Perhaps vegetarians will be delighted with the variety of salad plant species, those who cannot live without meat are not here. Meat is present at dinner in the form of grilled chicken (very tasty). But "our" people excelled here as well. Why queue??? ? my balcony went straight to the "oil" painting without 2.19 00 like clockwork people scooped up the plates and stood stubbornly, but there was always enough for everyone !!! ! Our people will create a queue everywhere. The fish was also grilled a couple of times. But this fish is a herring. I haven't tried it so I don't know how it tastes.
For breakfast, eggs, muesli, buns, jams, jams, salads, etc. And although the food is rather monotonous, to my grief, I recovered by 1 kg, so you won’t die of hunger, don’t worry. In any case, you won’t be able to eat somewhere else, there are several shops with drinks, cigarettes and nuts within walking distance. Advice - take everything you need with you, the prices are crazy - cigarettes 4 ye, cola 2.5 liters 3-4 ue, etc. There is nothing special to bring from souvenirs, Turkish lokum, I advise the shop, how to get out of the hotel and go to the left for about 10 minutes, because if you go to the right everything is the same only more expensive. The Internet is in the lobby downstairs Wi-Fi, the password is given at the reception. At the entrance, they will tell you that you can go to 2 Turkish and Italian restaurants for free, we didn’t succeed, there were no places, but we didn’t really try.

Animators will stir up even the most notorious beech, so that in 3 days you will be dancing, singing and shooting from a rifle. in principle, the animation + is the same, but what's the difference? Women trudge from belly dancing and aerobics, men are cut in the pool in water polo and water basketball. Animators, as already mentioned, are the nicest people. In general, the hotel staff are holy people. To endure the influx of our cattle for 4-5 months, it is necessary to have iron nerves. Everything is done very diligently, not intrusively, service 5+. About dirty forks, well guys! If you had waited at least a couple of seconds, and didn’t burst into a dirty table like wounded mammoths from which they had just left five minutes ago, then everyone would have had time to clean up for you. They are already hunchbacked without unbending to feed this whole mob. And about food, if you bother to count, it turns out that the hotel from you at best receives 50 dollars per person. Do you want to be fed lobsters for this money??? ? Have a conscience! ! I don't understand how they pay off. About children, children are fine here, Pony entertains them in the evenings from 21 to 22, water slides work from 10 to 12 and from 14 to 17, ice cream is free from 16 to 17. Ey they give ice cream by the hour, so what? If you don't want to, buy it for money, imagine how much money you need to spend so that it is free around the clock ???
It bothered me a little that freshly squeezed orange juice in the morning was $3. In my opinion, they would make it for $ 1 and all day, and not just for breakfast, it would be more fun, and no one buys it that way. From drinks we drank local Pepsi and coffee. You will not die of thirst - yes, there is a lot of water from concentrates, but there are bars that have both sprite and cola, there is also just cold bottled water, there is tea and coffee. As for the sea, there is no beach. there is a pier with sun loungers, you go down the stairs to the sea. But what the heck is it needed? I don't understand people who stubbornly go there every day. the pool is more convenient at times, + nearby and bars and rooms, music and all that. The sea is super salty, if it gets into your eyes, it will be terribly pinching, + it will pinch your burnt skin. My tan advice. Sunbathe from 7 am to 12. Then there is the sun, it is warm, but you will not tan. I left black after 6 days. Stories about the fact that you need to sunbathe after 12 is nonsense. The climate is not at all like in Egypt or the Crimea. The sun is soft and it burns so that the skin is hard to peel off. The tan immediately lays down beautiful. What else. Of the excursions, it may be interesting for anyone to have a flight to Israel for a day for 300.
