The first day was a real drag. We paid extra for a room with a balcony overlooking the sea, mountains, road, and mosque. We watched the sunrise on the balcony; our laundry didn't dry there at all because of the Turkish humidity. But the mosque...It's incredibly loud, louder than talking when the balcony is closed. The main alarm bells ring at 6am, but not for long, then you can fall asleep. They took a long time to check in, and they cleaned almost in front of us. And that was the only cleaning service all week. Then, when they told us to take care of things, they only took out the trash, replaced the paper towels when they ran out, and changed the towels if they left them on the floor. Our first shower—all the water ended up on the floor. Then we discovered there was just a hole in the top drain, we covered it with plastic wrap, and it was fine. Knowing it would be cold at night, we immediately started asking for a second blanket (we had one). They never refused us, but they brought two bedspreads that night. They said they didn't have a blanket, but they brought them on the second day. The sheets and towels aren't perfect, but overall they're fine. The rest of the room is fine.
The food is decent value for money. Rice, pasta, stewed and fresh vegetables, soup, salads, baked goods, cheeses, and olives are available only for breakfast. Scrambled eggs for breakfast, some meat for lunch, and grilled chicken for dinner, mostly vegetables, fish, and pasta with shrimp once each. I saw crayfish, but we didn't get any, of course. There are almost no sauces. Every dinner, when the cafeteria opens, there's a line and a crowd. It takes half an hour to stand at the grill, if you're starting from scratch. It gets smaller later, but it's not guaranteed to be enough. The rule is: they bring a certain amount of something, whoever pushed gets it, and they don't bring out more. They baked pide, and it was delicious. Desserts: mostly acid-colored sponge cake like bread and butter, jelly, and semolina balls—not tasty, we didn't eat them. As a general rule, I saw eclairs twice and snatched a meringue once. Fruit: apples, pears, plums, grapes, tangerines. Drinks are standard. Instant coffee with milk from a vending machine is ok. Tea in a teapot. Soda from a vending machine. Local alcoholic drinks, cocktails. Beer is available. Red and white wine are tasteless.
Internet is only in the lobby, weak; you can't send messages or photos (video doesn't work), or access the browser (outside of rush hour).
Now on the positive side. The sea))) 5-7 minutes' walk, private beach, sun loungers, canopy, not much space, but there was enough for everyone in October. The entrance is pebbles and large rocks, with a small bridge for easy entry. There were days when the water was murky at the entrance, but further on, it was clear. Sunrise over the sea and sunset behind the mountains. The views are stunning! The mountains are close, very beautiful.
There are lots of shops along the road and two Migros restaurants; it has everything you need. There's nothing else to do in Beldibi))) Just a wild beach with a sightseeing trail. That's a whole other story! And it's worth the trip.
The minibus goes to Antalya and Kemer. I visited Antalya on my own; it wasn't difficult and I really enjoyed it.
Overall, the vacation was a success; the quality matches the price.
On the day of our arrival, we arrived at the hotel and, instead of being checked in, were told we'd have to wait about eight hours. My husband was immediately offered to "resolve the issue" for 20 euros and upgrade us immediately to a supposedly new, upgraded room.
When we entered this "upgraded" room, we were shocked. The toilet seat was pee-stained, the door wouldn't close properly, the tiny window overlooked a landfill, and the room itself was on the fifth floor, essentially in the attic.
We went to ask for a room upgrade, but suddenly the price for the "upgrade" had increased to 50 euros. Unfortunately, we agreed to pay. The second room wasn't much better: everything was broken, holes in the walls and furniture, and the bed linens were dirty.
After contacting the tour operator, they promised to resolve the issue that same day, but nothing happened. It wasn't until the next day, after meeting with Anex Tour representative Violetta, that we were finally relocated. A huge thank you to Violetta—it was only thanks to her that the room issue finally got off the ground. The room was better than the previous ones, but it was still far from up to par.
The food is a separate story. I was worried that after an all-inclusive vacation, I'd bring home extra pounds, but I ended up losing weight. The food is monotonous and tasteless. The only edible items are rice and flatbread, which people literally fight over.
The lines are huge: many people line up 20-30 minutes before breakfast, lunch, or dinner. People line up in droves and then literally run to the food distribution. It feels like you're not on vacation, but in a cafeteria during a shortage.
The freshly squeezed orange juice was a particular surprise. It would seem like Turkey, fruit season, and an all-inclusive system. But you have to pay extra for a glass of orange juice—1 euro. Considering the already poor food, this seemed especially odd and unpleasant.
An additional "surprise" was the mosque located nearby. The call to prayer is heard about five times a day, including early in the morning. At 4:30 AM, I was woken up by the loud sound every time. Even as an adult, I found it uncomfortable; I can't imagine what it's like for families with small children.
The only positive thing I can mention is the entertainment staff—they're very friendly. I'd also like to mention Roman and Aladdin, who offer excursions along the way to the sea. They're very pleasant, positive, and unobtrusive.
My vacation was completely ruined. Instead of enjoying the sea and relaxing, I was counting down the days until I returned home.
Before booking our tour, we read the reviews, and they seemed perfectly reasonable. But the reality turned out to be completely different. If you want to ruin your vacation, worry about relocating, stand in endless lines for food, and wake up at 4:30 a. m. , take the risk. For us, the Magic Sun was a complete disappointment and the worst hotel we've ever stayed at.
I was very satisfied with my stay at the hotel! In my opinion, it is a really great value for money. The hotel fully corresponds to its 4-star level. There is everything you need for a comfortable stay.
I especially liked the beach. Comfortable, well-equipped, large, with beautiful clean sea. There is enough space for everyone. There is also a swimming pool in the hotel.
The fresh air is very pleasant here, there are mountains around and incredibly beautiful views. Nature is simply breathtaking.
Overall, my impressions were only positive. For the money, this is a really great option for a quiet and comfortable stay. We will be happy to come back here again!
Everything is pretty decent for the money you pay for it
Of the minuses - there are queues for food, but they serve very quickly, and there is enough for everyone. If you don't come for the opening, then there are no queues. Mega polite staff.
Cats on the territory - minus) and they are loyal to them. But now much less than the last time I was (7 years ago)
The mosque sings at 5:30 in the morning very loudly. But my children didn't wake up, only I heard)
The furniture is not new, but everything is clean and in good condition.
They clean every day. The staff is great, very sociable and friendly.
The food is decent,
There was also fish, seafood, chicken, vegetables and fruits
The children, by the way, didn't see any shortcomings at all
Animation is cool
We agreed on a late check-out, the price was normal.
Have a good rest? ?
Food.
For breakfast there were pancakes, Turkish pancakes, various flakes with milk, cheeses, buns - everything is light.
Lunches are always satisfying and varied, always vegetable salads and meat dishes. Delicious bread - it is baked.
The dinner liked the most - something delicious and new every day. There was a fish day: crayfish, various seafood. Often prepared on barbecue - fish, chicken, everything is delicious.
Many desserts are fresh fruits every day.
The main disadvantage in nutrition is the queue. If you want to try the most delicious - you need to come to the very beginning and take a queue, especially to the barbecue (this is more about dinner).
Number.
Normal number, standard, not new. During the second race, there was a very good view of the mountains and the sea from the loggia. The room has a refrigerator, air conditioning.
Cleaning daily, every few days change towels.
Territory.
There is a large pool in the territory, sometimes there are not enough places near it, because there are many people. The bar is good, there are different cocktails, delicious coffee. They prepare pizza or pita daily as a snack, and at some time give a delicious Turkish ice cream.
Beach.
To go to the beach 5-7 minutes with a quiet step. The beach is small, but in general, there is enough. It is difficult to find a place in the shade in high heat. The entrance to the water is convenient. There is no bar on the beach, but there is a cooler with cold water.
Leisure.
The children's room works for children. In the evening, carry out a mini-disc for babies.
For adults in the afternoon there is aqua aerobics, water polo, darts competition.
Every night there is a different entertainment program. For two arrivals, live music, acrobatic and dance shows (Africa, Cuba, the Georgian ensemble), fiery show, belly dance, bingo game with prizes, "Guess the melody", karaoke, foam party in the pool - it really liked it.
After the program - a disco, the bar is free of 22:00.
Personnel.
Separately, I want to mention the staff - always friendly, polite, ready to help, go towards, cheer up.
The overall impression is very good. We understand that it is not a premium segment hotel, but everything is on your level. Good price and quality ratio. We will definitely come.
00), bracelets were dressed at once, and they already used all the benefits from breakfast. The owner of the hotel is a young man who is in the hotel every day, communicates with vacationers, is interested, and the main thing he listens to wishes to improve the service. So I can recommend a hotel !! !
We wanted an active holiday with evening animations, delicious food and beautiful views!
All this is actually present in this hotel! !
We arrived at the hotel at three o'clock in the morning, where we were greeted warmly and a snack was prepared for us, there is enough space in the lobby where you can rest and wait for check-in, where is everyone? plaids are clearly issued)
In general, I really liked the rest, beautiful green, clean territory, varied and very tasty food! ! !
Every day a new evening animation, disco, fun for everyone, both adults and children.
Animators work on the territory throughout the day, both with children and adults, they will not let you get bored in any case!
A nice friendly team, they always smile, say hello, are always ready to help in solving problems.
The rooms are clean and tidy
There is free wi-fi in the lobby for communication with relatives!
There are plenty of sunbeds on the beach, the road will take 5-7 minutes, the sea is clean and warm.
We are fully satisfied with our vacation and are ready to return here next year!
I recommend it to everyone! ! !
