Second time in Turkey! CRYSTAL ADMIRAL is not a bad hotel for the money. I flew alone, from Yekaterinburg, in principle I was interested in a hotel for a suitable price. I liked the rooms, the service, the restaurant (there were no problems with food at all, there are so many food on the territory, it’s just not possible to stay hungry, I liked the quality of the food), the animation is not bad, the children were endlessly occupied with something (although the animators have a day off on Thursday discouraged, vacationers should also arrange a day off for themselves from rest? ), a nice well-kept garden, although not in a large area.
There were 2 minuses that did not allow us to rate the hotel higher:
1. The pool is large, but divided into 3 parts, between the 1st and 2nd parts there is a low bridge with tables, the 3rd part is separate from the first two! The depth of the pool is the same everywhere 140cm, there is no deep place "for adults" to swim, children splash everywhere. Probably, if I were with a child, it would not be bad, an adult can generally walk everywhere on the bottom, but for me, a lover of swimming, it’s not comfortable!

2. The beach is a bit dirty (a lot of cigarette butts and food, but it depends more on vacationers, on the culture of people, the beach is cleaned and robbed). I didn’t like the fact that there is no pier, and therefore a breakwater, the wave hits quite hard, especially in the afternoon, there is no opportunity to dive at a depth! The entrance to the sea is loose small and medium pebbles, not very pleasant, the bottom is more pebbly, at a distance of 2-3 meters from the shore there are large stones. In the pebbles, you can find a plus - there is no sand disturbance, the water is clear, it floated and buoys, you can see the bottom!
In general, a hotel for your money! I can also say that I arrived at 5.30 in the morning, at first they said that there were no rooms, after 30 minutes they gave me a room with a large double bed (as I understand it, this is better than the standard that I ordered). The hotel is the latest on the border of Side and Alanya.
