I am writing this review in hot pursuit. Rested with a friend from 06/24/2017 to 07/1/2017. I am a very unpretentious tourist, so everyone who is used to 5 * delights, a large territory, animation, a children's mini club and a variety of cuisine will immediately say: you are not here. We arrived at the hotel around 9:30 am. We immediately went to have breakfast: very modestly, but you won’t stay hungry. Every day: boiled eggs, vegetables, various cheeses, oatmeal and some other milk, several types of cereal, milk, yogurt not sweet, tea, coffee from a coffee machine (I'm not a coffee drinker - I'm fine, my friend says it's disgusting), butter, bread-baguettes, cherry tomatoes - amazingly delicious. The arugula is fresh and tasty too. Generally tolerable. The number was also given immediately, without any extortion (this despite the fact that the settlement is everywhere from 14-00). The room was 108 on the 1st floor with a balcony overlooking the pool, from morning sun until 13-00, then shade. The room is small, but everything worked. The air conditioner did not cool down to 16 degrees, well, somewhere on average 22-24 *. Girlfriend sometimes froze at night. I'm ok. There is a small shower in the bathroom (my man would not fit there - it's cramped) - it's normal for us. Soap, shampoo, shower gel were available. We asked to be cleaned 1 time in 7 days: I just don’t like it when strangers enter the room unnecessarily. So the cleaning girls were sometimes asked for paper and put a garbage bag at the door. The rest of the time they hung a sign: do not disturb - well, we don’t like these extra trips. Towels changed on the 3rd day and enough. The TV turned on 1 time spontaneously, which means it worked. What channels - I can not say, but it works.
The sea is about 700m from the hotel. In the morning you can walk, for lunch we tried to wait for the bus - the apocalypse! ! The driver does not take standing, the bus is stormed by mothers with children and fat-assed aunts for 50 ! ! In short, horror! We walked all the time. Although during the day the sun was +50!! . They drank water, I soaked my blouse, head and cap and ran across the shade on foot. Dear mothers with children under 14!! ! Do not go here: the hotel has no territory, there is no animation, there is nothing for children to do there, and the sea is far away!! ! We traveled exclusively by sea. It's chic. Our beach was in Moonlight Park immediately to the right when facing the sea. Sunbeds and umbrellas for free. But if you come after 9-30, you may not find a shadow. In any case, you can lie down on the grass in the shade of trees. Our tourists, as usual, take 5 sun loungers and leave... In the sea, cafes, along the coast, and people have nowhere to stumble. Once hooked with a granny from Russia. I ask:
Will there be shade on these sun loungers after 10-00? (we came to the beach at 8-30)

She:
- It's all busy. I'm already resting here for the 3rd week, I'll leave the day after tomorrow - then take these sunbeds.
I:
- Excuse me, did you buy them? (beds)
She:
-I'm already resting here for the 3rd week, in 2 days I'm flying away - then borrow.
And sunbeds, so you understand, 5 pieces are free.
I say:
- So, if I put my things here, you would kick me out of here?
The answer is the same:
-I'm already resting here for the 3rd week, in 2 days I'm flying away - then borrow.
In short, I realized that granny is a boorish and redneck. There were no more arguments, except that she had been resting here for the 3rd week already! My girlfriend and I decided not to get involved - why spoil the mood because of freaks !!!

After lunch at the hotel (a lot of delicious vegetables, soy meat, sausages, there was a liver, potatoes are different every day, stewed vegetables, salads with different vegetables, morning eggs, grated soups with crackers - very tasty, watermelon, apples, oranges, melon, plums - at the bar you can take wine, mojitos are made, tea, coffee - in general, tasty and healthy. Meat - frankly - little, but enough food. Some chocolate and vanilla jelly desserts - very edible) we went to bed. Quiet time was from 2 pm to 4 pm, sometimes 5 pm. Sometimes we walked to the center from 17-30 to dinner in the shops or used to go to the reception to poke around on the Internet. The Internet is weak, but catches. At the reception, the air conditioner is not turned on - it is very hot. Apparently, so that fewer people crowded in the lobby and sat on the Internet. Well, after dinner at 19-30 we again went to the sea, where we swam until 22-00 and beyond, then washed ourselves, changed clothes and went through the park to go shopping for souvenirs. We bought figs for $ 3 per 1 kg - very tasty, look at the Turkish delight by weight. Maximum 400g per box. I bought my 5 pieces for $ 7 on Tuesday at the exit bazaar. Haven't seen it cheaper. Turkish delight is expensive in stores. On Monday, the vegetable market comes: people bought cherries, figs and something else there. I went only on Tuesday to the clothing store. You need to bargain, but below a certain price, no one will give up anything anyway. In the tour agency opposite the mermaid, they took a jeep safari for $ 35 for two. The tour is nothing. We rode in the mountains, looked at the beautiful nature, for the entrance to the cave, in which there is nothing to see, they tore off $ 2 each. Don't go there - it's not worth it! A beautiful mountain river. But be careful: the rocks are slippery and the flow of water is very powerful in some places. We fed deliciously: bulgur, fish, chicken kebab, salad, drinks separately and for a fee. We carried water everywhere with us in small 0.5 bottles. Typed in a cooler at the hotel at the entrance and in the dining room.
By the way, our beach was sandy, and literally 20 meters to the right and 40 meters to the left - already pebbles. The water is clear, especially in the morning.
On the 2nd day of our stay, we ourselves went with a company to the village of Camyuva to an abandoned hotel. It has not been operational since 2013. Iconic place. Go there - you won't regret it. Just walk. Minibus from the mosque number 08.
We will go to Pamukala in October, when it will not be so hot. And we haven’t yet gone to the canyon in the village of Goynuk - again because of the heat. You can also climb the fire-breathing mountain in the evening and ride the funicular to Mount Tahtali. But it's expensive $ 34 - if Kemer is in a haze, you won't see anything from there.
In general, the rest is very satisfied! We drove across the sea.
On the last day, we were given dry rations to take away for breakfast without a reminder - thank you very much, but we bought ourselves a snack in the evening, so we left them at the hotel. The staff is friendly, the hotel is clean.

Once after dinner, music was blaring by the pool. I went to the reception desk, asked, they immediately turned it off. Someone will ask, why didn’t they go to the sea after dinner? It was so hot. Much nicer in the evening. The last couple of days we went to the sea by 6 in the morning, skipped breakfast, took a snack with us, and returned by lunchtime. If it's not so hot, you can build your schedule differently. At night we really slept from 2 to 5 in the morning. So we slept during the day. I think that in October the regime will be completely different! There was, however, 1 nuance. Turkish hot men did not give a pass. Already so tired of it that in the end we decided to talk with a girlfriend that we are lesbians. Someone may like it when they pay attention, but we wanted peace and solitude. (We are all right with men in Kyiv). But not communication, let alone intrigues. Perhaps many women do not mind playing abroad. The sea, rest, a lot of free time, everything is conducive to this. Therefore, Turkish men believe that if ladies are without men, then they will definitely come to “light it up”, To each his own.
