Hello! We have been preparing for the trip for a long time, we were worried a lot about the weather. We read all the reviews about this hotel and didn't know who to believe. On May 20th we flew from Kazakhstan (via Scat airline) from Almaty. They flew great. When we left the airport we were met by tezz tours. Arriving at crystal admiral we were shocked, the hotel was so cool, we did not expect. At the reception we were greeted very well, and settled very quickly. We got a good room on the third floor 3029 overlooking the sea, and our relatives were given room 3037 overlooking the pools and bar. We immediately threw our things and ran to swim, first we went to the sea (a very convenient underground passage, everything is clean, tidy), there were a lot of sunbeds, there is a bar nearby, you can drink and eat, sometimes clean sand, sometimes sand with pebbles (for us it’s did not interfere), going into the sea, we felt stones at the bottom, but soon to the left we noticed a sandy bottom, where we swam later. Then we went to dinner. Dinner was excellent!!! ! Large selection, a whole bunch of food, meat, fish and shrimp with sushi, pastries with cakes, many types of cheese, olives, a lot of vegetables and fruits (apples, oranges, bananas, strawberries, small green round berries - we still did not understand what it was, but it was very tasty), various snacks, drinks, teas, coffee, alcohol (after 10 am). In general, choose what you want. then we went to the amphitheater. Animators are just great! Tatya, Natya, Fati (I don’t remember the rest of the names))))) There were evenings in the comedy amphitheater, performances of visiting acrobats, a dance show, African Americans came and danced. Then, after the amphitheater, we went to a bar near the pools, there was a 90s disco or karaoke, at that time they gave delicious milkshakes with fresh strawberries, then we went to a disco (from 23.00 to 01.00 at night), it took place inside building, there was a flickering light, special smoke, a bar, cool music (mostly clubbing), both young people and adults danced. Then we went to sleep, only frogs were heard swimming in the nearby river, but they did not interfere. the morning started out great. From 7 to 10 breakfast (just awesome - yogurt, cereal, pancakes, toast, omelettes, scrambled eggs, chicken ham, vegetables, etc. ) Exactly at ten in the morning, the "rooster crowed", the Good Morning song began, the animators passed and greeted everyone, then there were children from the Hippo club (there is a "kindergarten"), their leader shouted "Hippo club Hippo club", and the children "Hey Hey Hey". Then gymnastics began on the grass with Natya, and then water aerobics with Tatya. After different games, botch, shooting, etc. The pools are just wonderful, they also played water polo, and there was a volleyball net on the beach, they also played there. There were also tennis courts - I played - rent rackets for 7 bucks, a basketball court, a football field. There were also cool slides!!!! ! we once went to the hammam, but somehow he was not particularly impressed, but if you didn’t go there, then go and try it. There we were washed, smeared with foam, then with olive oil, massaged and presented with washcloths. But there is still a sauna and steam rooms free of charge, an indoor pool is free, a gym is free. We went to textile centers, where the prices are, of course, oh, if you want to take something, bargain well. Then we went to Pamukkale, great, but the road is tiring. There are bazaars near the hotel, you can find a lot of interesting things too bargain (we took a lot in one store there and they even gave us gifts))) Then we were advised by friends on Monday or Friday to take a regular bus or taxi and go to the Manavgat bazaars ), we went, bought all sorts of things, I advise you to go. I really liked the hotel, I just flew home last night (I didn’t want to fly away from there) By the way, the staff there is just super, everyone is nice, smiling. The weather was good) There was a multinational people and Russians and Kazakhs, Ukrainians, Germans, Americans, Dutch, etc. (Kazakhstan ranked second or third in terms of the number of people))) I really liked everything, I advise everyone (by the way, safes in rooms are free)
