"TAL" I miss you! I was very comfortable visiting you, the rest was a great success!
But first things first. Antalya airport met us with a heat of +32 (at 7:30 in the morning) and long queues for passport control. They move pretty fast, but still. With us, one control window was closed and two queues of tourists were combined into one - there were many disturbances. But we were not affected We had to stand in line for about an hour. The baggage claim went quickly - the suitcases were already waiting on the tape. The meeting party is the tour operator ANEX TOUR. They quickly put us on a bus (comfortable, brand new, with powerful air conditioning) and almost immediately drove off. The guide greeted us with jokes, the first of which was when she, in a very calm voice, as if in all seriousness, announced that our bus was going to the Alanya region of Turkey, the travel time was about 2.5 hours. We even jumped up! Our hotel is in Beldibi, a district of Kemer.
But the guide hastened to reassure - they say, this is a joke, we are still going to Kemer. All the way she entertained us with legends about the local tunnels that were passing through (angels live in one and you can make wishes, the other is the tunnel of love, you had to go through it with a tight hug, etc. ), provided the necessary set of standard information (about the exchange of money, insurance, excursions, meeting time with hotel guides, etc. ).
We arrived quickly, literally in 30 minutes. Our “TAL” was the first to disembark in Beldibi. The guide led to the reception, where she handed over to the care of the administrator. We were seated right away! Time is 9:30 am. Didn't even wait 10 minutes. Which of course they were very happy about! Room on the 2nd floor, as actually wanted (I personally do not like the 1st floor). Quite spacious, bright, with a large balcony overlooking the pool. Here I’ll say right away that when you arrive at a 3 * hotel, you should not expect the Sultan’s chambers and spoil your mood by looking for cracks in the plaster and chips on the furniture.
We had, for example, a slightly lopsided wardrobe - so what! There are hangers, there are shelves, things are laid out and normal. In general, everything was in order, the air conditioner worked perfectly, quietly, did not leak, despite the fact that it did not actually turn off. TV, hair dryer - also without comment. Hot water was constant, pressure was good. Water from the shower tray did not spill onto the floor, unless, of course, you specifically directed the shower jet past. Lying on the bed by the window, you could admire the stunning view of the mountains. Beds, towels are clean, sets are quite new. One towel was missing for the face, they told the maid, brought it in 5 minutes. So there are no complaints about the number. Things are good. I note that on the 3rd floor the rooms are newer, we later saw. So, if anyone wants, you can ask at the settlement of the 3rd floor.
TAL has a beautiful territory, although it is small. Many flowers, the whole building of the hotel in them. Big palm trees. Irregular shaped pool decorates. Very cozy near the bar.
There is a hammock The territory is constantly cleaned, the greenery is watered, you will not find garbage anywhere, although our tourists add work to the staff. Wonderful trimmed lawn, which is so nice to walk barefoot. Great view of the mountains! You never get tired of admiring them both in the morning and in the evening, and when a thunderstorm was gathering over the mountains, it is very beautiful.
Nutrition. Lots of variety of salads, fresh vegetables, my favorite olives and black olives, very tasty eggplant and bell pepper stew. For garnish - spaghetti, potatoes, porridge, rice. The meat is mostly chicken. But I did not expect culinary delights from 3 *, a la lobsters in cranberry sauce or veal medallions with foie gras Men may not have enough meat. But I ate my fill. Twice there was fried fish - delicious. Grilled veal and chicken, shawarma. This is once a week's vacation, for dinner. Soups-puree - did not try, but they said, not very much. They gave soy balls and sausage. I always took sausage for local cats.
But in general, you can eat it. Breakfast is probably the scariest part of the diet. Although, again, who cares. I was quite full of salads, cheese (very tasty! ), olives, vegetables. There were cereals and milk and eggs. Delicious bread! Airy and crispy. At home, I practically don’t eat bread, but in TAL I threshed 3 pieces each Delicious jams and marmalades, especially raspberry. Honey. A couple of times there was something like cottage cheese, but he ....salty! Our tourists filled it with jam or honey, we followed suit, but could not eat it. Somehow it ...Sweets for lunch and dinner, the choice is not large, but tasty. Fruits - watermelon, plums, apples, melons, were given for lunch. Bar - good beer (surprised! ), wine red, white (so-so), cocktails nothing (gin and tonic, rum-cola). Strong drinks were not taken. Good service in the restaurant, the waiters fly like bees, they immediately remove the extra dishes. Yes! About dishes - there were plates with chips, yes. But everything is clean.
Coffee is made in a coffee machine, the most normal is coffee with milk, and cappuccino is some kind of strange one. Tea is tea leaves, not bags. Sturdy and quite a nothing. Well, juices are traditionally something like yuppies.
Beach. It is a very leisurely 10 minute walk from the hotel. You can go straight to the sea (it's generally 2 minutes) and, turning left, walk past the beaches of two hotels to TAL beach, or you can walk along the promenade, along the shops, and turn onto the alley that runs through the orange grove - go straight to the hotel beach . The clear advantage of the beach is that it is the last in line. Much more spacious than, for example, on the beach of the neighboring 4 * Belpinar, where the sunbeds are very tight. The sea is wonderful! The water is clear as a tear, very salty and very warm. The beach is pebbly. At the entrance to the sea, the pebbles are quite large. We bought slippers for swimming ($4). But in principle, you can go and so. In the center of the beach, a path was cleared to enter the sea.
There were enough sun loungers and mattresses, no one ran to borrow. Minus - guests come from other hotels, no one forbids them to stay. But given the fact that the beach is large and there were enough sunbeds, it was not particularly annoying. Another plus is the proximity to the wild beach. 15 minutes walk including stops for swimming. The wild beach is very beautiful! The views are amazing. Swimming is a pleasure, the water is azure, the sandy entrance to the sea. You can take a thousand photos on the stones and it will show a little more. Who travels to Beldibi - do not miss the opportunity, you must go!
Excursions and hotel guide. We have already been to Turkey, so the standard routes were completed, so we did not buy excursions. And there was not much time, 8 days. I just wanted to relax, relax on the beach. We took a hammam on the first day - it's lovely! Especially after the flight. Such a thrill! This is where you need to start your holiday. We were taken to the Ottoman complex in Kemer.
The complex is large, a lot of extra. services who wish. The standard set includes: Finnish and Turkish sauna, jacuzzi pool, Roman steam room with bath attendant and soapy massage (20 minutes), face mask, general body massage with olive flavored oil (40 minutes), tea drinking. The whole program takes about 2 hours, but there is no time limit as such. During the massage, they are bred for money, they say, they say, you have such and such a problem, you need a therapeutic massage. They start with $150, and then it all boils down to “How much do you have? ". At the same time, it is not necessary that you have money with you, you can pay at the hotel, they issue an invoice. No extras. services were not taken. The standard set is enough to feel that the vacation has begun! I can’t say much about the hotel guide (Hamid), because I didn’t really communicate with him. Despite the fact that they bought only a boor, they did not become his enemies
I did not want to leave hot Turkey and fly to cold and rainy Kyiv.
But the rest is over, work awaits. The departure passed without incident. The flight was not rescheduled. Departure from the hotel in 3 hours. On the way they are brought to a large shopping center. Prices there are much higher than in Beldibi. Well, then - the airport, suitcase, Kyiv ...Goodbye Turkey! Definitely see you next time! We will return to you again and again!
