The Omer Holiday Resort hotel is of incomprehensible star rating : )), as it usually happens, most often on Internet resources it is indicated with 4 stars, and tour operators sell with 5 stars : )). Well, okay ...The tour to the hotel was selected and bought in the second half of April for May. Since the trip was planned without children, without lying on the beach, the budget option was selected, but in such a way that it was not quite a bed, and that there was where to roam around. If we had attended to May leisure earlier, it might have turned out to be even more budgetary. I’ll immediately outline my emotions for this hotel: at an adequate cost, it’s quite a pretty hotel, simple, but cute and cozy. Strong middle peasant : )). It is well located, so it is convenient to combine wild excursion adventures and lazy reclining under the shade of pines, inhaling phytoncides : ))
If we analyze last year's reviews, then, in fact, they are relevant this season as well.
I, perhaps, will pay more attention to what I missed myself when choosing.
As I mentioned above, first of all we chose by cost. Secondly, we liked the hotel from the photos - a very green well-groomed area - just the "green sea of u200bu200bthe taiga". Bungalows among the pines, water slides from somewhere in the crowns of trees, unity with nature… All this is true, but, as they say, there are nuances. Most of the bungalow rooms do not have any privacy (more details in the description of the photo), where the window is the front door, a common terrace with neighboring rooms, but everyone has their own table with chairs : )), i. e. in the morning, sorry, in shorts you will not go out for pulling : )).
Initially, we were settled in a similar room, besides, it was very dark and damp, where instead of a window there was a kind of "loophole". We asked to be relocated. We must pay tribute, there was no refusal, we were shown two more options.
As a result, we stopped in a five-story building.
Here, of course, the road makes itself felt, but the rooms themselves are much nicer, although somewhat shabby with time. For orientation when booking or checking in - are the room numbers four-digit 1001-500? . There are 12 rooms on each floor, on the last fifth there are fewer, instead of the missing side terraces with excellent views.
Our room was on the fourth floor, side. Views from the balcony directly to the amphitheater, to the right of the track, to the left a little sea behind the crowns of trees. Ordinary standard. Everything you needed was there, everything worked, nothing fell off ...Of course, cups of water in the refrigerator look sad and lonely, but they were! are replenished every other day. By the way, there are no problems with drinking water, 0.5 liter bottles are freely available in the refrigerator in restaurants and bars
Shampoos were not replenished by the maid, but we didn’t really need it. Towels changed on request (from the floor).
I was never interested in changing bed linen, but this time, at least once, they changed it, just at first the sheet was slightly torn, then it was gone : )). Safe for a fee (I don't remember the cost).
Now to the hotel life:
Administrators at the reception in Russian are not boom-boom, but a sympathetic Russian-speaking employee for working with guests Elena always comes to the rescue. In May, she had just taken up her position and did not know much about the services of the hotel herself, but she always tried to help and find out. Now, I'm probably more confident.
Upon check-in, cards are issued for towels, you need to get them at the SPA center, and exchange them for clean ones there. Spa services are not used, there is a sauna, very personal. As the administrators said (they speak Russian well), visiting the sauna is free until 18.00. And a gym is available.
About WiFi.
It's terrible, of course.
We knew, and we were ready for the fact that he was only in the lobby, well, next to him around, sometimes you grab. Damn, but with each new communication session, you must re-enter your login (room number) and password (passport number). It really kicks out! But there is also a benefit - I remembered the passport number : ))
About bars.
On our arrival, a lobby bar and a snack bar were open, and pizza burgers and burgers were prepared there during the day. I don’t know how it is now, but with us the cook worked without gloves, we talked about this to Elena, I hope the situation has improved. Here, under an awning, feast events ordered by locals are sometimes held, on our arrival there was something like a graduation from a school or college, in any case, smart girls and young people with such voluminous bangs were sitting at the tables. The youth didn’t cause any discomfort, they just took pictures and roamed around the hotel back and forth, there was no alcohol and dancing to loud music, it’s not even interesting : ))
The range of drinks in the bars is standard, everything is locally produced: beer (by the way, not bad), wine, whiskey (once they froze in the rain - it went well), something else ...There are non-alcoholic sodas, but I don’t know about juices (our consumers of juices from we weren’t), even if they are, then, for sure, like UPI.
The bartenders are cheerful and kind, they remember preferences (or there were not so many people in the hotel). Trying to remember the names of drinks in Russian.
During lunch, dinner at the restaurant there is a bar where you yourself take a glass of your delicious.
About food.
Well, the standard expression “You won’t stay hungry” fits here.
In general, it’s hard to find fault with breakfast: eggs in various forms, sausages (there were, though shriveled, well, when they are warmed up again), traditionally there is no sausage in Turkey, cheeses, wonderful cherry tomatoes ...There are a lot of all kinds of rolls, but the impression was that this variety is exclusively for the kind of abundance - for the most part tasteless and stale.
Lunches and dinners in the format of minced meat with vegetables, minced vegetables, chicken with vegetables, vegetables with chicken, cutlets in a pan, grilled cutlets. Simple, the presentation is not joyful, often without dish signatures (go and make out whose meat is stewed in vegetables). Yes, it probably corresponds to the level of the hotel. To be fair, there was once quite tasty grilled chicken wings and twice grilled fish. Pies are also some ...not very, for myself I chose profiteroles as a harmful pleasure - of course, not a masterpiece, but in comparison with the rest, for my taste, the best.
And once the confectioner was just at his best, and there was just a riot of colors on the dessert table. But nothing attracted me.
Of fruits throughout the week were only apples and oranges. We diluted our fruit diet with local tangerines. There are several trees on the territory, but, I will tell you a secret, edible fruits are only on one : ))
The very beginning of the season, there are still few guests in the hotel, so there were no grandiose queues and battles for a piece of chicken. But in the first days (May 2.3) there were a lot of locals, and with teenagers, maybe some kind of gathering. Then yes, after the invasion of growing organisms, the food warmers instantly became empty)). And we were already tuned in to a half-starved existence, but then everyone left, and the hotel began to live a calm, measured life.
Ice cream was not served in our time, gozleme was not baked, the a la carte restaurant did not work
The main restaurant itself is nice.
Especially good is the veranda on the seashore with stunning views of the bay. Romantic!
About animation. Did not see. Maybe it was. But we were not in the hotel every day. There is a children's club, decorated children's faces ran through the territory : )). Mini disco was watched daily from the balcony.
About the beach.
He is not. There is a narrow strip with several sun loungers at the very edge of the water. All lying-tanning activities take place by the pool. At the entrance to the sea there are stones, but we did without slippers, then sand. A gradual increase in depth, and then it becomes sharply shallow and algae. And they tickle your knees ...In general, the place is not very comfortable for swimming, so, soak the little body near the shore : ))
And a few more useful things:
If you go to this hotel and like to sleep with the window open, take fumigators, repellents, etc. - there are mosquitoes (not clouds, of course), they cannot be absent in the forest.
You can change money at the reception.
Course, of course, lower than in the city, but not deadly. For example, in a hotel for a dollar they gave 5.4 lira, when in the city it was 5.6, for euros 6.2 (or 3, I don’t really remember) and 6.5, respectively. The lira is rapidly depreciating, by the end of our vacation in the exchangers for the euro they were already giving 6.8 lira
To the center of Kusadas 10 minutes by minibuses (dolmush) No. 6 and 7, stop on the opposite side of the hotel with a light wave of the hand, the fare is 2.75 lira. If the driver sees people leaving the hotel, he will signal and wait if necessary. To the bus station (otogar) 5 minutes - this is if you need to go to more distant directions. These minibuses also stop at the crossroads, where minibuses are based in other directions, to Ephesus and Selchuk, for example. This is the intersection of Andan Menderes Bulvari and Candan Tarhan Bulvari.
At the hotel there is a representative of one large car rental office. The price tag is reasonable. Moreover, in offices in Kusadasi themselves, the prices are the same. The booklet shows the cost for the mechanics (see photo).
While still at home, we wanted to rent a car on the Internet. But everything was offered with a pick-up at the airport, or with a transfer to a hotel for 20 euros, plus an advance payment, insurance with a deductible ...We decided that we would look around on the spot and figure it out. In the end, everything turned out well: no collateral and bank card data, insurance without a deductible, you only need rights and money, you can pay by card. It is our case: Opel Corsa automatic 2017. offered for 33 euros, gave 30 for 2 days. The cost of gasoline is 7.09-7.15 lira at various gas stations.
Everything seems to be..
I can’t recommend it directly with confidence, but, in general, there were positive emotions from the hotel. We are all different and each has its own importance. Study, prioritize, accept or not accept all sorts of nuances ...
Yes… If it’s crowded in the hotel, then there are abandoned territories nearby on both sides. On the left (if facing the sea), apparently, there was once a small hotel.
You can enter through the gate next to the slot machines. What gorgeous roses!
To the right is a large area. They look after her a little. Such a good park. Don't go too deep into buildings. A dog will bark there, uncles will come out and politely ask you to leave through the gate. They didn't let us back : )
