Советую ! Особенно для отдыха с детьми ! I advise! Especially for families with children!

ACCOMMODATION AND ROOMS: Settle quickly. If you do not like the number, it is quite possible to replace it, in extreme cases with the help of a certain amount. Basically, everyone is accommodated in the Palms building, even if you have tickets to the Resort. But that's not bad at all! Considering that there is a restaurant in the main building and the owners of rooms overlooking the sea are forced to listen to the hubbub until late at night, and the songs and dances of our compatriots, who dance right in the restaurant after dinner. And the rest of the rooms, which are the majority in the Resort, are very small and have balconies overlooking the neighboring walls. In Palms, the rooms are larger and the view from them is much more decent, with the exception of rooms overlooking the courtyard (mostly these are numbers ending in an odd number). Being in any of the buildings, you will have to enjoy singing from the local mosque located next to the hotel 5 times a day - in general, it’s interesting, not really annoying. There are 3 or 4 Russian-language channels. We didn’t know Turkish and watched the Turkish “Love at First Sight”. THERE the presenter was made right under Alla Volkova, are they like that all over the world?
RECEPTION , GUEST RELATIONS AND SANMARA GUIDES: Everyone speaks Russian and is friendly, except for the guides. If you have any questions about the room, service (whether the dispensers are filled with gel, or the mini bar is not filled, etc. ), it is better to contact the reception or Guest Relations Valentina, and not the guides. Guides consider it their duty to stay a certain time in the hotel, sell you excursions and post your flight schedules. To all possible questions they react almost offended. But they perk up and start smiling at you when they hear the word "excursion". By the way, do not believe if they say that you can buy a tour only on the first day, and then they will sort everything out - they are afraid that you will spend all the money in the first week and will not want to go anywhere,
TERRITORY: 3 outdoor pools (1.40m, 1.20m, and 35cm), one indoors (1.6m) On the territory there are shops, a SPA center, a lot of trees, flowers - much better than in the introductory photos on the websites of travel agencies ,

HAMAM AND SPA: Hammam $40 through guides, not through guides 50. BUT if you don’t want to wait for a guide, then you can go and directly agree that you will be done for 40 without the help of a guide. Cosmetology is bad! Although there are jars of Decleor and a Lancome vaporizer all around))) Outside the hotel there are a lot of hamams and massage rooms - everything is much cheaper there.
ANIMATION: On the beach - volleyball and boccia, By the pool aerobics (1 time per day), aqua aerobics (2 times a day), water polo, darts (for adults and children), games, dancing, etc. , Mini club next to the pool. Everyone was happy.
RESTAURANT, CATERING: A very successful open veranda of the restaurant - with a view of the sea and mountains. The staff is polite, every day in different clothes - today they are in blue shirts, tomorrow in red ones. the day after tomorrow in green and so on. The food is varied. There is a diet table - boiled potatoes. rice, boiled chicken. For breakfast, for the first time in Turkey, in addition to yogurt, cereal, eggs, omelettes, etc. , we saw rice porridge. Soups, in my opinion, with the addition of Knorr seasoning ("Knorr" was written on the cap of each cook), but there was real mashed potatoes (not from powder), a lot of different meats, fish, cherries, strawberries, etc. From 15 to 17 in the lobby, next to the reception, they give cookies and muffins. From 12 they serve hamburgers and fries with salads by the pool. Guzleme is baked on the beach.
STORES: Opposite the main exit, the most normal store, where it is inexpensive and discounted, is "FYKO LAZAR HOLLIDAY TATOO". The owner Fyko himself and his girlfriend work there. He speaks Russian, she speaks very little Russian, but speaks good English. Everyone is given discounts and asked not to talk about it in the hotel "only to you. " they end up bargaining for almost 2 times cheaper. Another store where you will not be deceived is located about 50 m to the left of the exit from the Palms building. It is called SUSSE MARKET 2. A phone card of 100 circuits (about 50 minutes of calls with Moscow) costs $ 6.5 there, not 10 or 15. Ice cream, like "Twister" -1 lira, if you give a dollar, then they will give you 50 kurush (Turkish kopecks) change. As a result, for $ 2 you can buy 3 ice creams. And not vice versa - for $ 3 - 2 ice creams. I liked the PHARMACY the closest to the Palms building, if you turn right after leaving it. But keep in mind that sunscreens are very expensive everywhere! Better stock up on them at home, and in case of burning, take "panthenol spray" with you - everything is at least 2 times more expensive there. In general, there are a lot of shops of all kinds and payphones around there, to call home, too. And lokum, I advise you to take it from the uncle in the hotel - $ 10 -1 kg (but souvenirs, magnets, beads and all sorts of bracelets are more expensive than outside the hotel)

EXCURSIONS: Be sure to take a minibus in Side! The final stop is the beginning of the ruins of the ancient city with a well-preserved amphitheater! Entrance to the amphitheater cost $ 4 2 years ago - you must visit) We took a tour of the Green Canyon from the guides. It is something! If you get tired of sitting in a hotel, take it. It's not far, an hour and a half, "indescribable sensations"! On the bus, be sure to sit on the left in the direction of travel! You will be driven along a mountain serpentine to a height of 900m along the very, very edge of the road. You will look out the window, but you will not see the road - only a cliff and Manavgat below. Then for 6 hours they will wind you between the rocky mountains along the bottomless mountain lake of incredible beauty (you see it when you fly over Turkey - amazing green-blue color). You can fish and even swim there if you dare. Very beautiful ! When you take lunch tokens, do not take fish! DO NOT fall for the word "trout" - we all took it and regretted it, it's better to take a lunch with meat or chicken. And also, if you order a lunch package before the tour. mind you, it's completely useless! It is better to take something with you at breakfast. Because the food on the excursion is very bad, the salads are stale. And the lunch package includes: 1 slice of bread, 2 slices of cheese, one pack of butter, jam and honey, 3 olives, 3 slices of cucumber and 3 gouge fruit balls. What to do with this is not clear? Spread everything on top of each other, put cheese, cucumbers, olives on top....
And the hotel is good! Condolences to the people who apparently went to Xanadu, and a hard fate brought them to Caesars! Sleep all your life on downy featherbeds, eat truffles with hazel grouse and comprehend such a disappointment! To adequate people who go to relax at sea, and do not expect to get to Rixos for 50 thousand in 2 weeks for three, I wish you a pleasant stay and I am sure that this is possible with Caesars hotels!
