In this difficult 2020, tired of quarantine, they nevertheless took a chance and caught a last-minute tour to this hotel. Tour for 6 nights for 4 adults + 1 child 3 years old, departure from Kyiv cost us 1025 euros!
We looked at many reviews of the region of Kusadasi, Bodrum and Marmaris, for a family hotel holiday with a small child we chose Pine Bay and were very pleased!
Many people write that the hotel does not correspond to 5 *, it's not! He matches! But budget 5 * in the HV category (territory, food, beach, room size, service)!
We arrived at 9 am (we arrived from Bodrum airport by the way for 1.40, we drove back 2.5 hours). They immediately put on the bracelets, gave me the forms to fill out and sent them to breakfast.
Check-in after 14.00 according to the rules, but on the 3rd attempt, $ 10 accelerated this process, and we got the room at about 11 (after breakfast).

We lived in a family bungalow with 3 rooms (1 of them an entrance hall with an extra bed), each with air conditioning, 2 bathrooms (with bath and shower), bathroom accessories were replenished as needed.
Slippers were 2 pairs. Cleaned well, towels changed every day, bed every 2 days. The mini bar was replenished every day.
We really liked the room, it was clean, spacious, and everything worked in it, there were no problems with the safe, yes, maybe the furniture is not the newest, but these are all trifles ...The biggest plus of our room is the terrace overlooking sea ​ ​ (the windows of our bedroom also overlooked the sea).
The staff is very friendly, they speak English and some Russian.
The beach is huge - for every taste, there is a paddling pool with small pebbles and sand for children, small pebbles and large stones, there are also 4 breakwaters with ladders into the water. When the water is crystal clear, there were waves for a couple of days and garbage and algae were washed ashore, if possible, the staff clean them up. Since we arrived on Sunday, it was problematic to find sunbeds by 12 (Turks come to rest on weekends), on weekdays there are much fewer people.
It is very convenient that you can go down to the beach on a panoramic elevator, it is very convenient, there is the same elevator to the main restaurant.
In general, the territory is very comfortable and thoughtful, since the bungalow rooms are located in traverses, there is no inconvenience of a steep ascent or descent.
Meals: very varied, something new every day, beef meat, chicken, turkey, 2-3 types of grilled fish (mackerel, perch, dorado), a lot of fruits (watermelons, melons, peaches, nectarines, grapes, strawberries, kiwi, pears, apples), just enough.
There are delicious snacks in snack bars (I especially liked the snack bar near the Marina (at the very beginning of the bay). Confectionery with natural Turkish coffee and delicious tea, ice cream is very tasty! More than 5 types from 12-17 on the beach and near the pool, in the same place did something new every day for a snack like shawarma, churos, baked potatoes, rice with chicken and something else.

ANIMATION: I never paid much attention to animation, but here it is at a decent level. There were very interesting evening shows for children and adults, in general, the entire animation team with an acrobatic circus direction, so every evening there was something new.
Wi-Fi: free, weak, but we don't care. Normal was on the beach and near the pool.

The only negative is the cocktails, they are really tasteless here. The rest of the alcohol is normal, wine for dinner is red, white, rose good and you can drink beer.

Thanks to the guide Anex tour Alenyo, a very professional approach, everything is very affordable, without vparivanie and free shopping tours. We bought a 2 in 1 Ephesus + Pamukkale tour from her and were very pleased. Also thanks to the guide Olga (Volga) for an interesting tour.

In general, we were very satisfied with our stay and the hotel.
And I really hope that my review will be useful to someone, the average rating for this hotel is definitely higher than 7!
