Rested from 26.09 to 06.10 of this year. One. The hotel was chosen by itself - according to reviews on the Internet. First time in Turkey.
In general, everything is fine. The rooms, although old, are kept in good condition. I got a small corner room with a view of the courtyard, and the first impression was depressing (small, little light), but I did not change and did not lose. It turned out that these are the quietest rooms. Those with a sea view complained about the noise of the entertainment programs. The rooms of the front part looked at the road, and the side ones looked at the neighboring hotels. In my room, the plumbing was serviceable and decent. Everything changed at the right time. The maid twirled the flowers regularly. I didn’t use hotel personal hygiene products (shampoo, soap) - I prefer my own, so I can’t judge whether it often changes or not, but the maid tried to put various little things on me (sticks, cotton pads), and other tourists with whom I talked, did not complain. Water and juices in the minibar were added regularly. Although there was no bathrobe and slippers needed in a five-star hotel. But, again, it didn’t bother me, because. I will not wear someone else's out of a sense of disgust. In general, there are no complaints about the service. The staff is polite, friendly, they speak decent Russian. There was no discrimination against Russians (compared to foreigners), and quite a few of them had a rest (Germans, Poles, Balts, French, Ukrainians, Kazakhs).
The food is normal. There were no stomach problems with food or water. The menu is quite diverse: two types of soups, vermicelli, potatoes, rice, stewed vegetables in different variations, cold appetizers, meat dishes (chicken, turkey, veal, lamb) stewed and grilled, fish, desserts. There are a lot of desserts, but for my taste they are very sweet and very fatty. I don't drink alcohol, so I can't comment on the quality. In general, I had enough food without snacks between breakfasts, lunches and dinners. They didn’t like gozleme cakes, but Airan drank the drink with pleasure.

A lot has been written about the beach, it is better to swim from the pier, because. pebbles are large. And indeed, on the left side of the beach, the sea view is blocked by terrible concrete pillars supporting the pier. The sunbeds were always free. The sea is amazing (but this is not the merit of the hotel). During the entire stay, it never rained, although according to forecasts on the Internet, it promised rain from October 30th. For me, the end of September is the best time to relax - there is no longer sweltering heat, they don’t rub against each other either on the beach or in the restaurant, but the weather is beautiful, the sea is warm, there are plenty of free sunbeds, places in the restaurant too. Quiet rest, the audience is decent and calm.
We went to the hotel La mer to have a look and have dinner: the beach is better, but the food is the same. The rooms, of course, are more civilized, but it makes no sense to overpay for a room in which you practically never visit (for me). Let everyone decide for himself. But outwardly, I liked the Club Phaselis hotel, which is visible from the beach. And the tourists from this hotel were just delighted (we met on the tour).
No animation.
And the last thing: the review turned out to be not emotional, probably due to the fact that a beach holiday is not my holiday. In general, I have nothing to complain about: everything is decent, good, but rest in Turkey is a feedlot on the seashore: the time has come - everyone wandered to the food points, ate, wandered to lie down, lay down - wandered to eat. And so on throughout the rest. Looking at people chewing all the time, only one phrase from the famous film was constantly spinning in my head: “You eat and eat everything. ” In general, the impressions are positive. Anyone who compares this hotel with others (higher class) should be objective - there the price is 7-10 thousand more expensive.
