When going to Turkey for the first time, we chose a hotel very carefully, based on reviews. Previously rested only in Egypt (5 times). Of course, these two countries cannot be compared, but hotels, I think, can be.
Accommodation is excellent. We arrived at the hotel at the beginning of the eleventh and immediately received the keys to the room at no extra charge. I asked for a room at the Garden Chalet because knew it would be quiet. The room was clean, spacious and well kept. True, the minibar was not filled upon arrival, but this does not matter.
The area is large and green. In the morning you wake up to the singing of birds. Cons - at the end of the day, all the restrooms in public places begin to resemble station ones, you can stick to the bar counters.
SPA-center! A great! I advise everyone not to spare 35 dollars and do a peeling upon arrival. Nice indoor pool with hot tub and gym.

Beach. The reviews often write that a bad entry into the sea. Didn't notice much of a problem. But there is a big problem with sunbeds. It's not the hotel's fault though. When we arrived, there was some kind of Turkish conference taking place in Mirada and most of the guests were Turkish families. At the weekend they left and the Russians stopped by. After that, sunbathing near the sea became impossible. Already at half past seven, all the sunbeds were occupied with towels (hotel and home), slippers, children's toys and panama hats. In addition to the beach, sunbeds were also occupied in the clearings and in the shade near the pool. What is the phenomenon. The Russians borrow loungers for the family in two or three places, and then move around the territory depending on their mood.
The food is excellent. Everything is delicious and varied. But! The hotel restaurant is clearly not designed for the number of guests. Therefore, you should go to dinner either by seven (if you are not embarrassed by stomping around with the crowd in front of closed doors, and then rushing to the restaurant in order to “mark” the table you like), or by nine (if you are not embarrassed by the search for a clean table, knives and forks) . Queues also line up for individual dishes.
I advise you to visit the fish restaurant (5 euros) - very worthy.
Drinks are crap. There are no juices in the packages. They didn’t understand what kind of “ultra” is, if everything that is more or less from alcohol can be drunk is paid. The exception is white wine. It seems that some free imported drinks were in the lobby, but it’s not in our habits to walk around and ask the bartender “what is being poured without money today”. Rave! They don't know how to make cocktails. We ordered a majito (8 euros), so we ground mint in a blender - that's another soup  .
About animation they wrote before me. She was replaced at the beginning of the season, respectively, not worked hodgepodge.
Service... Not up to par, but given the contingent of vacationers - understandable. Vacationers at the gala dinner looked very funny. In the evening, in the amphitheater, after the animation, the chefs were introduced and a huge cake was taken to the beach bar. They poured champagne there. It was embarrassing. People made a stampede, shouting "Manya, take me two pieces! ". The animator into the microphone said "do not rush, enough for everyone. " Ugh!
PS. We had a good rest, because went somewhere almost every day. (By the way, excursions can be easily purchased at street agencies. After the first trip, we just called in the evening from the room and asked to be picked up in the morning for the next selected excursion. ) But I would not go to Mirada anymore, as well as to a Kemer hotel of a similar category.
