When choosing a hotel for a holiday, reviews about it played a decisive role, a lot has been written about this hotel, it is described in detail, so I will write only about what caught my attention. Good or bad - for different people in different ways. And it seemed to us noticeable:
The entrance to the sea - it probably cannot be more gentle, measured from the edge of the water to the depth of the shoulders, a woman of average height needs to walk 70 steps, for us it was a plus. On a wide (this is a plus) beach, umbrellas covered with a material of a rather rare weaving, it is quite possible to get burned under them, we are white, for us it was a minus. Sunbeds had to be dragged around the umbrella after the shade, lovers of chocolate tan did not care about this topic.
Animation during the day on all topics was almost at the same time, it all started when the sun was already high enough, and if darts and boccia took place in the shade, aqua gymnastics in the pool threatened to burn, because you can’t climb into the pool with sunscreen smeared.

In the evenings at the pool bar, I sometimes sang, I don’t want to offend, but not a singer, the animators tried to lure them to the dance floor, the people walked weakly, but when they started normal music and the people danced.
The main restaurant is considered round-the-clock, we found out about this when we went on an excursion to Pamukkale and asked for a lunch box, they don’t give it, because you can have breakfast at any time. Yes, at five in the morning the restaurant was open and there was a working tea and coffee machine and bread and empty dishes. On one of them there were two pieces of cheese and in the kitchen we asked for butter. Of course, they didn’t come to get fat, but if they knew such a thing, they would have hung around in the evening for a couple of figs. And in the evening, when we returned, we went to drink tea (they don’t smoke in the restaurant, but they smoke in the bars, we didn’t like it), also nothing but bread. Why then burn the light, by the way, people wandered while we drank tea, hoping to find something, probably.
The food was good, but for a family hotel, where there are many children, the presence of peppered dishes seemed strange, and they seemed to look innocent, for example, fried shrimp with vegetables, and on the other day, stewed carrots were decently peppered for my taste. Then I started to look closely and try, but even in Egypt there was never anything too sharp. You can pepper to taste, but there is no turning back.
Thank you very much to the chefs and waiters in the restaurant, they are friendly, benevolent, which cannot be said about the women who made omelets in the morning, and those who baked cakes (very tasty) in the afternoon were gloomy, maybe they were very tired? The girls who cleaned the rooms, on the contrary, were always cheerful and how many times they see you, so many times with a smile and say hello, this trifle cheered up.

Very pretty, shady territory, but the paths are narrow, it’s inconvenient for walking, the situation is saved by the fact that you can walk outside the territory, there are such shopping streets, everything is lit in the evening, people hang out until midnight, however, if you hold your eyes on something, it’s immediately strong they want to sell it to you, it's a little annoying out of habit.
It is very convenient to go to Side and Manavgat, dolmush stops near the hotel.
We had a great rest, but there is a wish (it is relevant not only for this hotel): since there are some uncomfortable rooms, why not sell them a little cheaper, but so that people know what they will have. In our case, everything was formed in the most wonderful way, but you must admit that it's a shame to live differently for the same money.
We will remember our vacation with pleasure, we recommend the hotel to families with small children, and we will go to try new places.
