Good afternoon everyone, I'll try to get my feedback on the hot. The rest went pretty well, without excesses and adventures on the part of the hotel and the tour operator (Pegas Tourist). They were almost completely satisfied.
I will say right away that the hotel is a little short of 5 *, but a solid 4 with a plus (I would even say with two pluses). The hotel is a little old and this should be taken into account when choosing it. More focused on greedy and family Germans. 7…8 out of 10 vacationers are Germans.
The rooms are simple, no frills. Old furniture, a small refrigerator (minibar), a balcony, we had a room with a sea view. Replenish only ordinary and mineral water. They settled us very quickly and in a good room, although they have very long corridors and the Slavs settle either at the end of the corridor or with a view of the mountains. The air conditioner is central, it works fine, it was cool in the room all the time, they didn’t complain, it blew a little weaker at night.

TV is terrible! Only 2 Russian channels are the 1st national and planet 24, all the rest are German, the child always wanted to watch cartoons, he had to watch his own (on a laptop) or German channels, which they simply got by the end of the holiday with their barking. One Russian children's channel was really missing. The receptionist is normal, the lobby bar is also normal, but in the evening, after dinner, in the lobby bar you will find a hell of a place to sit, some Germans with their families savor beer and cut themselves into cards, then into monopoly.
Food - practically no complaints. Everything is very tasty and good. Indeed, in the main restaurant, everyone is trying and cooks and waiters. Went for an a la carte barbecue. Do not go, I do not advise, the bucket is full. They set a table for you on the street and put a brazier on the coals next to it and bring raw meat. The meat is not marinated and very tough. Didn't like it, went to the main restaurant for dessert.
The beach is dirty, sun loungers and mattresses are worn out, the sand is full of garbage. After lunch, the waves begin and the sea becomes dirty. There is also such a phenomenon as Turkish - Germans (sorry for the tautology) who rest in this hotel. Rude and shameless! They can come to a stupid place and pick up your mattress (which happened to us when we were swimming) and put it on your sun lounger or even pick up a sun lounger even when there is a bag and things on the table. It is useless to prove, neither Russian nor English is understood. Even more arrogant than them, the Katsaps (Muscovites) behave who will only shame their Slavic roots. There was a case when they brought a new group at 10 in the morning, but they settled in from 12, well, of course, bracelets on their hands and in a bar and poured their eyes, and let's buzz, yell and fight there! In short, such a shame, I have not yet seen, and the Turks and Germans, all shied away from these Pindos!
Shopping - do not buy anything either at the hotel or at the market across the lake, you will be screwed there in full! If you need anything, minibuses go to Manavgat, they have market days on Monday and Thursday, feel free to go and buy everything! In Manavgat, in the Migros supermarket, you can buy oil (35.50 lira for 5 liters) and tea (10.95 lira per kilogram), dishes and sweets, food and things, etc. in Manavgat there are a lot of shops with normal Turkish prices. Do not feed outbids in Titreyengol.

Animation - a lot of German children, and few Russians, it will be difficult for a child if there are a lot of them. And so everything is fine, the main thing for the child is the slides and the evening lalipop!
Conclusions: my family and I are very satisfied with the rest, the hotel is very worthy. I think this is a reasonable choice price-quality! Relax with pleasure!
