This is the second time we are celebrating a professional holiday on the Antalya coast, like last time, the choice fell on the Kemer region, this year the hotel was chosen in Beldibi Selcukhan 3 + * (this category was indicated in our vouchers, the tour was taken from Coral Travel).
We arrived early in the morning. The road to the hotel takes less than an hour. Taking into account the peak of the holiday season and taking into account the check-in time accepted in all hotels in the world at 14-00, our large group of 30 people (including 2 children of 8 years old) was ready for the upcoming expectation. They provided a special room for luggage (where it was not very comfortable, but it was possible to change clothes), we immediately received bracelets, had breakfast, I personally asked for the key to the safe even before receiving the room (safes at the reception $ 2 / day with access at any time) to put away papers and money and go to the sea. After 11 o'clock we began to settle. We got most of the rooms in the old building. The buildings are connected into one building, the three-story old one smoothly turns into a four-story new one, in the middle there are 2 elevators. One of the rooms, at will, was immediately exchanged for a room in a new building, the rest of the colleagues did not bother with the exchange and calmly lived in them for 5 days, I am among them; the rooms were all with 2 separate beds. Let me explain that there are 3 times fewer old rooms in the hotel, because the probability of getting into them is 1 to 3, while you need to be prepared for the “miracle” of the shower room, namely the shower on a flexible hose behind the curtain, there is no tray, when taking a shower, water fills the entire floor, then in a few minutes it drains into the drain hole - a hole in the floor. The bathroom has a hair dryer, all the necessary accessories (cotton pads, sticks, shower cap, wet wipes, liquid soap and shower gel - also known as shampoo, in dispensers). If you do not find a foot towel, ask the maid and better lay it in front of the door to the toilet room so that it does not float and you can really use it. The area of ​ ​ the room is not large, the furniture is old but not shabby, comfortable beds, a huge closet, a small TV, a mirror, an empty mini bar (fridge), the air conditioner in our room worked with a roar, but it cooled perfectly, it was possible to set any temperature mode, there are 2 plastic chairs and a small table on the balcony, there is no clothes dryer (a kind person has already put on a bandage under the air conditioner, it was possible to hang swimwear) - in short, for a 3 * quite satisfactory room (if anyone is comforted, then the condition of the furniture in the rooms I I met worse even in fours, although the situation was better in 3 *). The room has a set of needle and thread, matches, 2 pairs of disposable slippers. The rooms overlook the hotel grounds (pool, bar, stage) or the territory of the neighboring hotel Belpinar, if you want peace, it is better to ask for a view of the neighbors. Room cleaning is average, for 5 days there was a change of linen, towels are changed daily, provided that you throw them on the floor (sometimes towels can be hung from the floor on a hanger (without folding! ) - a hint of a tip. Once, I threw two towels on the floor for replacement, and after cleaning the room I found them on a hanger, well, well, I had to collect all four (I don’t know which ones were on the floor) and immediately exchange them with the maid for clean ones.
The hotel offers a gym and a hammam, visits to the sauna, jacuzzi and Turkish steam room without peeling and massage free of charge according to the schedule at certain hours, a comprehensive hammam program of $ 25, who went, were satisfied. The pool in the photo looks much larger, but it is quite sufficient, 2 slides work in the afternoon for 2 hours exactly (before lunch we were always at sea, so I don’t know).

The food at the hotel is very decent, everything is always without restrictions, the choice is not bad, every day fish and chicken, they cooked both lamb and pork, there were always at least 7 types of fruit. From local alcohol (ALL) they drank beer, whiskey, wine - quite normal. Freshly squeezed juice $1, brewed Turkish coffee $5 (at the bar). From 15 to 16 hours ice cream is served by the pool. The waiters in the restaurant are fast. However, taking clean dishes, you have to inspect them, because. constantly come across poorly washed plates and cups. Please bring the wish to more thoroughly clean the dishes from food debris to the restaurant staff. The hotel has 2 main bars on the territory and on the beach, they only have drinks: divorced yupi type, chilled water, ayran, coffee from a machine, alcohol. In the main bar you can order a hookah (one-time 30% discount is given for each room). Above the hotel bar is a snack bar where you can order a choice of 1 dish (for example, french fries and kebab), and in the evening it works as a la carte by appointment. There is no bottled drinking water at the hotel, you can collect water from the cooler in your own containers or glasses.
The beach is located across the roadway, the road to it takes a couple of minutes along the oto park owned by the hotel, it is in the park that there are beach toilets and a foot wash, through the park there is an exit to the beach bar (at night there is a night disco club on the territory of this bar - Fly clab). The beach itself is not big, but there were always enough places, sunbeds and mattresses are not removed from under the canopies, the entrance to the sea is big stones, but this is Kemer! In slippers it is quite possible to go in and out, but I personally preferred to use the pontoon. The sea in August was calm, slightly invigorating during the day due to the temperature difference, amazingly warm and clean early in the morning, we received great pleasure every day. Schools of fish were constantly swimming at the pier, naturally there were lovers to feed them with bread (the fish did not have time to eat all the bread! ). Once a breeze brought garbage from the sea, apparently thrown from the yacht, but soon the sea became clean again. There are showers and changing rooms on the beach. Beach towels are issued in the Turkish bath on a card, towels are changed after 3 days, but at the same time we were not asked for a room number and did not check the entries in the notebook (everything was honest). Two cards are issued to guests upon check-in at the hotel along with an electronic room key for a $5 deposit, which is returned after they are returned.
A lot has been written about animation before me, the animators do not let you get bored, but they are not imposed either. Of the sports activities at the hotel, aqua aerobics, water polo, darts are held, you can play table tennis and billiards for free.
The staff at the hotel is friendly, all the questions that we had were resolved. We had 2 events, at the request of our organizers, tables were prepared together for a corporate dinner in a restaurant and a festive event in a bar.

An additional bonus of the hotel is 1 free photo per room, photographers work every day, but you need to make an appointment in advance, you will be photographed in different places and poses, then choose what you like (if you want, take only one free photo, if you want several, but already for $ 5) .
If you want to extend the number, then every hour - $ 10, for late release a fine. We had a check-out at 15-05, the rooms were not extended, again they put the bags in the luggage room and continued to rest. By the way, the hotel has a service for wrapping luggage with a film - $ 5, at the airport wrapping costs $ 10.
I personally liked the location of the hotel, I have never stayed so close to Antalya, the beaches of Beldibi-1 have always scared me, because for my money I prefer the sandy shore of Side or the small-pebble Alanya. Here I got the opportunity to go to a normal shopping center, buy what you need and spend only 3 hours, of which 30 minutes on the round trip by bus to the big Migros. The fare is $3. There are a lot of small shops near the hotel, you can make purchases, by the way, if you contact Andrey, in the leather shop on the right, as you leave the hotel, he can organize a free transfer to the Deepo shopping center. You can buy a phone card for a payphone at the grocery store for $3. The cheapest water is 50 kurush (0.5 TL) for 0.33 liters in a shop behind the Belpinar Club Hotel.
Given all the pros and cons, the hotel is quite decent for a reasonable price.
