I don’t advise anyone to go there. We rested with a family with a child, guided by the recommendation; a girl from Coral painted this hotel like that, and green. And food, and in general....Everything turned out to be sad.
It takes 2.5-3 hours to drive from the airport until everyone is taken away, and half an hour to stop at the store. When they take them back, they bring them to the store with Turkish sweets and souvenirs, everything was 2 times more expensive than in the shopping center near the hotel (Lira) and in the market. But people took, and how they took these delights.
The territory is good, green and well-groomed, various exotic plants grow for us, flowers bloom and bushes are trimmed. Every evening it is plentifully sprayed with water from sprinklers, after that it is terribly stuffy and humid, there is nothing to breathe and we walked all the time wet. Perhaps this is a feature of the climate, it it is very harsh here, hot, stuffy, the Turks themselves agreed - it is very humid.

We got the room in a bungalow, it is after repair, next to the relax pool. The bungalows are beautiful and in greenery, the room smelled like a strong room only with a fresh renovation, at first it seemed like mold, but then they sniffed it out . . Cleaning is quite good, every day something she washed us, filled us up with toilet paper and laid out patterns from the bedspreads, but, though, she only changed her underwear once every two weeks. There is no shampoo and soap, there is liquid soap in the dispenser, we only washed them, it dries the skin a lot.
The hotel is crowded with people, there are not enough sunbeds by the pools, it’s calmer near relaxation, we lived there. The main pool is very noisy and the water is muddy, loud uncles ride from the children’s slides. Everything in this hotel is not thought out, not comfortable: the territory is large, but there is nowhere to walk, one alley in the middle - there is traffic all day long, there are dead ends - bungalows, a lot of unused places, a shopping area in the center, slot machines for children. In the evening after the show, the DJ mixes songs, the repertoire is a disco of the 80s and very loud, live music - an aunt with a strong accent sings hits in different languages, often and with pleasure performs "Black Eyes" and "White Roses", not in notes gets in, but tries all the same. A children's club and a playground near the children's pool, almost under the slides, everything is for the little ones, basically, our child did not go there. Towels are issued according to a strange schedule.
The animation is not visible, you can say that it is not there. I don’t need animation during the day, all these aerobics and games, but they don’t even smile when they meet !! ! For two weeks no one has ever approached us, it seems that this is their job....Evening shows - do not beat the lying down, the best was imported for the Turkish night. Hotel shows - amateur performances, mostly dances with an unconventional bias, or with the participation of vacationers and their children, the best couple, the best girl, a children's show, etc. just to do nothing, the people themselves have fun, however, many don’t go, we stopped, it’s not interesting. Children’s disco is good.
Nutrition is a separate problem. For lovers of turkey with pasta, here. This turkey in different forms, we wondered how they would cook it for us today, it is both on the grill and like a barbecue (queue, this is a shortage) and in diets. table, and in its own juice, but more often in a sauce with vegetables, from there it must be caught. By the end, a baked potato appeared - wow, how happy we were. Mashed soups, a lot of boiled carrots and potatoes, and an abundance of cucumber-tomato-salad dishes and some olives. Cheese, greens. An alternative to the eternal turkey was stinky fish, similar to boiled herring, sometimes it was fried. French fries and soy cutlets were especially popular with children. Sometimes there were chicken legs. You need to come to eat an hour after the start, otherwise you won’t find a place and you will stand in line for a turkey, of course, there is no other. Gala night --- Nightmare !! ! Everyone was taken outside in a row, and all the 1500 people who came to dinner lined up in an hour-long queue for (guess what) a turkey! They also baked donuts (by the way, donuts in this hotel are wildly popular, there are always 30 people behind this delicacy, we don’t we never dared to stand in the heat for what we have on every corner for a penny). everyone was waiting for a particularly tasty piece, they didn’t chew anything, they didn’t let the children go, of course, no one let them in, in short they crowded. When they gave peaches, it was a show. The Germans and the French with many children did not lag behind our citizens in the struggle for food. Children have nothing to drink, there is no cocoa in the machine, only diluted cola and life-threatening Yuppies. Tea also needs to be guarded, mostly green and laxative was, and herbal was in short supply. During the day, you can only eat cookies by the relax pool, gozleme, in the sense without a queue, for food, for which there is a queue. There is no appetite.

The spa is good, modest, but cozy, and inexpensive.
There is in this hotel and a big plus is the work of the staff in the restaurant. The waiters rush about like bees, in the heat and stuffiness, they always smile, sing, they manage to joke with everyone, they work instead of animators. They work, in short.
The sea is warm and salty, it was stormy. Garbage floated in the sea, but against the background of the general situation in the hotel, it was taken for granted.
Yes, and no one writes ---- at the entrance to the hotel - a sewer filter - a sump. You go out for a walk - you walk past it, it buzzes and smells accordingly. There are low windows, where children like to look at the cycle of substances in nature. When the wind from the other side at the pool relax from the smell of complete relaxation.
The contingent is the Russian-Polish-German-French proletariat, by the sea, however, only our citizens are ahead, the piercing cries of grandmothers and obscenities evoke nostalgia for Anapa.
In general, you can relax here, but if you close your eyes to a lot.
