We returned on July 17, three of us rested for two weeks with a child (10 years old), we are very satisfied.
To begin with, before the trip, we re-read all the reviews found on the Internet and made an approximate picture of the hotel, imagining what will happen, what will not happen and where everything else goes : )
The check-in was standard, until 14.00, as soon as the corresponding rooms were vacated and prepared. While the rooms were being prepared, we used free WiFi internet at the reception. It so happened that when buying we indicated the standard (there was no other), but upon check-in they gave the Jacuzzi Suite - two rooms and a bath with a jacuzzi, there was a TV with two Russian channels, a refrigerator and air conditioning in each room, the balcony overlooked the green area with palm trees, beyond which stretched the sea. As expected, there are a lot of English people in the hotel (and not surprisingly - Tui is the main co-owner of them), so the entire service is focused on them, with Western quality standards. There are really few Russians and Ukrainians, which did not bother at all, the daughter on the beach herself met the children, played, and swam. They were completely satisfied with 4 * - the quality of service was at a high level, I didn’t want to find fault with anything (before that they were at 5 *, but it seemed better here), beach towels were issued on plastic cards and changed for free (which was not the case in previous 5 *) , so those who chase the numbers of stars, and do not look at the quality, may continue to be unsatisfied ; )
We did not look for a children's club, although there is one, we once visited a children's disco - in English, and in my opinion it is really weak. Did not like. However, as expected.
In front of the entrance to the dining room there are hand sanitizers and parking for wheelchairs with a sign indicating the parking place - looks funny : )
We weren’t looking for a disco for adults, but judging by the music, it was there until 1 or 2 a. m. (somehow they left the balcony open for the night, otherwise they wouldn’t have heard : ) ), perhaps on the territory of the neighboring Pegasos Palace Hotel, where there was free access. By the way, I recommend walking along it, the buildings are similar, but the decoration is different, they have a beautiful exit from the main building to the pools. But the houses are better located in Pegasos Tropical Hotel ; )
There are 3 or 4 small pools, the main one is just huge, but the British occupy places around the pools (there is an assumption that some of the vacationers did not even go to the sea : D ), so you can not be too lazy before breakfast and leave a towel on the sunbed. And we went to the beach and swam in the sea!
Beach. A shady alley of 100-150 meters leads to it, the passage along it is not particularly annoying. There are sunbeds on the beach, but they are 60 meters from the water, there are signs asking you not to drag the sunbeds to the water. Turtles lay their eggs there. We didn’t see turtles, eggs either, but in the evening crabs run along the beach near the water, it looks like they burrow into the sand by morning (there are holes in the sand and footprints), eating turtle eggs. The sand itself is heated so that it is hot to walk, we sunbathed closer to the water, from 8.30 to 11.30, later it was more difficult, the sun was scorching mercilessly. Adult bar on the territory near the entrance to the beach, cola-fanta-sprite-water_in_bottles-upi_juices like everywhere else, free in any quantities. A small shower and a place to wash your feet after the beach is of course at the exit.
The territory is very large and green, beautiful paths, everything is fresh, well-groomed and clean, it is watered every morning.
Nutrition. This is generally a separate issue : ) There is a lot of food and is available almost from 7 am to midnight - for breakfast, lunch and dinner in the dining room, before lunch there is something to eat in the bar near the large pool (because of this, few people go to lunch), after sweet Turkish pancakes are cooked on the lake for lunch, from 23 you can again eat in the dining room (there is an exact schedule in front of the entrance to the dining room). They didn’t look for neighbors, but they would probably find something there if they wanted to. The menu is varied, there are cereals (oatmeal, semolina), yogurts for breakfast, for lunch there is a choice of meat dishes, something fish, once they got on salmon baked in salt, butchered and laid out on plates for those who wished. On Wednesdays, they bring out a big ice cream cake for dinner - this is their whole performance, under the resounding blows of the lids and the flashes of fire. However, it didn’t always work out with soups, they don’t know how to cook our borscht, the soups are all grated, often spicy and salty. There is always fresh fruit, lots of fruit. We didn’t look for a children’s menu, our daughter ate with us, we didn’t limit her to fries with ketchup, sausages, fish fingers and spaghetti with cheese; ) . There are special tables for small children.
Outcome:
Quality service, a lot of good food, a huge well-groomed green area, the beach is a bit neglected, but apparently this is not the main focus, if you don’t find fault - it’s not annoying, few of the staff speak Russian, it would be nice to know the basics of English.
To the village of Sarı germe on foot, 20-25 minutes on foot (2-2.5 km), you can go to bargain for souvenirs, from there there is a minibus to the hotel for 1 lira (from the hotel to the village, too, probably, I didn’t look closely : )). The merchants didn’t grab hands and didn’t trick anything - after all, the British trained them well.
All in all, perfect for a relaxing holiday : )
Separate greetings to the newlyweds Natasha and Sasha, with whom we had a very pleasant time! ; )
