Score 7 - because I had read the reviews and expected more. Although the territory is large, BUT our brother (vacationers) are also not few there. The administration reasonably stretches the population over the territory, but still there are too many people in the recreation areas - such density is annoying. I advise you to immediately go on a tour of the hotel on the first day - they are held here at 11 and 16 hours daily.
ACCOMMODATION - they check in from 14-00, but if you arrive earlier, they will immediately give you bracelets and you can check in your luggage and use all the amenities of the hotel. When you arrive - take the number that they give, and then if you don't like it - you can change it for a surcharge. I advise you on the 6th floor with a view of the pool and the sea at the same time, a little noisy (and you don’t need to sit in the room), but strictly until 24-00. There they have a relatively new building "Garden Chalet" (three floors) - do not settle, it seems to be far from "civilization" and from the sea and the reviews are not very good.
GENERAL - a hotel for a FAMILY vacation, the animation is very high quality and fun, children can be "handed over" from 10 to 12 and then from 14 to 17 + evening children's show from 20.30 to 21.30, then from 21.30 to 22.30 (23.00) adult show, for adults During the day there are also competitions and entertainment. I have already rested a couple of times in other hotels (level 2000 for a week for two) and was not enthusiastic about the animation entertainment. In Mirada, the animators are ready to give a solid 10 on a ten-point scale - though very worthy out of 6 evenings, 2 were invited shows and 4 animators, so you can’t even say which is better, everyone was cool in their own way. Well surprised.

WATER - in the sea there are 2 descents into the water 10-15 meters into the water with steps and one large pier for 30-40 sun loungers. The water is clear, fish for "divers" is available. The whole bottom is in cobblestones - yes, but not in pebbles, namely in large stones - it is almost impossible to enter from the shore without the risk of falling, immediately there are stones the size of an orange and after 2-3 meters the size of a watermelon. Those. entry into the water only from the ladders or the pier (conveniently equipped) - as anyone, it suited me; ). Throughout the territory (both the pier and the pools), as for me, there are not enough umbrellas (about 15-25% of the number of sun loungers). Of course, there are places near the pool where there is shade all day long (from trees), but given the density of vacationers, there are not enough places like this. In the pools, the water is 22-26 degrees, while in the sea at the same time it is 26-30, in the pool with slides it is even less - 20-24 (it is always in the shade). There is a shallow pool for small ones 30-40 sq. m. - the water is warm). There is also a swimming pool (indoor) ala jacuzzi (from 10 to 17 bulbashki work) there, the water is very cold (20-22) - but this is correct, otherwise the whole hotel would be crowded there; ). In general, there is enough water.
FOOD, DRINK - a lot, varied. Features - by the beginning of breakfast, lunch or dinner, there is more variety, i. e. some dishes (products) are initially few and then they are not updated, but with all this, there is a lot of food and it is of high quality. Greens are green, sweets are sweet, booze is liquid. For alcohol, everyone will find their own - do not hesitate to ask at the bar at the beginning what is there. Coca-Cola, Sprite, tea, coffee available and in abundance. I didn't see any drunken people.
ORDER - the green spaces are very well maintained, the grass is always clean and trimmed, the rooms are clean and tidy. There are "failures", but not critical, for example, someone's child will scatter food on the floor and such shnyaga can successfully fail underfoot for up to half an hour, but these are rather exceptions. Staff in clean clothes, well-groomed and friendly. In general, the hotel is not new, BUT it is clear that after the repair and it is well monitored.
SPORT - there are 7 tennis courts (paid) what for so many I did not understand - mostly empty. There is a gym for amateurs, there are 20 simulators.
LOCATION - in general, of course, look at the map, but a few words: it takes 20-25 minutes to walk to the nearest cluster of shops (and a pharmacy, for example) near the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in the form of a large boat. There is no civilization directly around the hotel, on the one hand the hotel on the other - 300-500 meters of fenced pine forest with the third forest from the fourth sea; ).
FE TOUR OPERATOR - we went from PEGAS TOURISTIC - they issued a medical insurance so that there is not a single Turkish phone number on it and, accordingly, if you take anything and start playing home in roaming, and there is a day off, third, fifth, tenth. Please note that you have a contact number in your country of residence in your insurance company.

It seems to be normal, but I wouldn’t go a second time, or maybe it’s not necessary, hotels are multiple, you don’t need to go in cycles.
