Отзыв о Royal Palm Resort Review of Royal Palm Resort

Rested at the hotel from 5 to 19 July 2008. with his wife and student daughter. The rating of the hotel is a solid "four". Normal price / quality ratio. Of course, there are hotels that are much better (as well as much worse), but let's start from the price. Plus, we can compare with the prices for holidays in Sochi, where, taking into account the flight, for this money you can only afford a small room in the private sector and Doshirak. The implications are clear. . .
So, about the hotel.
Number. Normal, standard. I don’t know about others, but our plumbing was all new, the air conditioner worked perfectly (it happened to be turned off in the morning - it froze). Cleaning - it used to be so-so, but after leaving 1 USD they licked the room to a shine. Towels and bed linen were changed daily, everything is snow-white (I am extremely scrupulous in these matters). The mini-bar was replenished daily, without omissions. I read in the reviews that someone there had something to drink. I doubt it very much, although I do not rule it out 100%. Personally, for all 2 weeks, the brought open good "duty-free" cognac and whiskey have stood in the refrigerator for me - not a drop has evaporated...

Territory. 5 points no options. Who needs hundreds of hectares of golf courses and arboretums - welcome to Florida or California. There is also a mini-golf course, and a mini-football field (the ex-USSR team played against the Turkish team among vacationers in my presence), and tennis courts (why are they for? ). There are also peacocks-mavlins in the enclosures (I agree with Munchausen: they sing very disgustingly, but their fluffy tails - even for me it was an impressive sight).
Pool - 5 points. There are a lot of shade and lawns next to it. Sunbeds may be missing for someone, so call a beach boy, he will bring it. The price of the issue is to get up not at 11-00, but at 9-00, or 24 rubles at the exchange rate.
The beach is nice, 20 meters from the pool. Wide, spacious, clean. Of course, there are “cultured” people (and the most unpleasant thing is that girls) who smoke while sunbathing, and throw cigarette butts under the sunbed, although 0.5 meters to the ashtray. But the beach is cleaned several times a day, so everything is clean on the beach. At first there were problems with umbrellas, but then they brought new umbrellas and they began to be enough for everyone. The sea is clean, transparent, the bottom is visible even from a parachute. Sometimes, however, the wind brings a little algae, so it's all along the coast, and not just on the beach of this hotel. There is also one significant drawback: the sand is very hot, but these are the laws of physics, the hotel, again, has nothing to do with it! And one more thing: I advise you to move along the beach 25-30 meters to the left of the pier, there are no volcanic plates.
Food. She's a lot. I was thin (weighing about 100 kg. ) Enough, although the meat was not enough (they say it is expensive), mostly chicken-turkey-chicken in a variety of ways. Plus there's always fish. Lots of green salads. Fruits - watermelons, melons, oranges, apples, plums, apricots, cherry plums alternated. Less often, but there were peaches and grapes. Desserts - some were such that you could eat with a spoon, and some - not so much. You need to try all of them if there are enough days of rest. But I strongly do not recommend going to "a la card". The most negative memory about the hotel was a visit to the a la card restaurant. For him, the assessment is a solid "one". If it's worth appreciating at all! (I agree with the previous opinion about white wine: after the first sip, I wanted to pour it on the waiter's head - they changed it to red, similar to that in the main restaurant).

The drinks. Natural juices are not provided for by the concept of the hotel - "Yupi" and so on. Alcohol: local whiskey, gin, rum, tequila. Ladies - analogues of martini and baileys, plus a variety of cocktails. Not premium, of course, but you can drink. Likewise, wine and beer.
Animation. Russian girls are all great, they try very hard. The animator boys are also great, I especially single out Chico and Rio. Daytime games, water aerobics, competitions are different... But the creative professionalism of the chief animators (with a ponytail which and one more, Yasso, it seems) leaves much to be desired from my point of view (this is my subjective opinion, the family has another, a night disco - " worthless": the repertoire fails, plus constant problems with technique.
Summarizing the above: if you crawl around the hotel with a magnifying glass to look for the negative in everything, then you will undoubtedly find it. And if you come to enjoy the sea, sun, rest, then everything is GOOD!
P. S. Throughout the civilized world, there is a practice of tipping staff, even in real European five-star hotels. Let's get used to civilization. 1-2 USD will not ruin anyone, and the attitude towards you and the quality of service will significantly improve. . .
