Хороший отдых Good vacation

We went at the very end of August 2008 with "Natalie Tour". After reading the reviews, I realized that living on the 1st floor is bad. And of course they put us there : ). In principle, there is nothing wrong here, except for the lack of a balcony. At first I thought that probably only Russians were settled there, but the Turks lived next door. By the way, there are a lot of them in the hotel, we also saw Bulgarians, we didn’t come across Germans, but there was one couple from Israel : ). Our windows overlooked the 3rd small pool, where there were few people, so in the mornings I swam there all alone. I liked it very much. The rooms are normal in size and quality. Cleaned every day (before we reached after dinner). Towels were changed, everything that was supposed to be given out. For beach towels, of course, it's cool-exchange for a fee. But we, if they didn’t dry out overnight, took local baths (differed from the beach ones only in color) or our own (after the reviews, we prudently took them with us). The food is very diverse: a lot of vegetables and fruits, chicken, turkey - every day, meat somewhere every other day, but in the evening they fried it, or fish, or chicken on the street. During the week of our vacation, they were also fed crayfish, mussels and squid 1 time each. From fruits: watermelons (very tasty), peaches (huge), apples, pears, plums. The sweet table was a bit monotonous and there was not a single pakhvala. We were not interested in animation for the first 3 days, later we found a girl who played the piano in the hall every evening, a girl who sang on the street near the bar, one evening a man sang something in Turkish for a very long time and mournfully, 1 time there was a group performance synchronized swimming, well, on the stage there, the animators lit something as always. Disco until midnight on the beach, then inside (I didn’t go, I can’t say anything, but the music was loud). I especially liked that the hotel has a large territory and 3 swimming pools, the beach was also incomplete, places can be found at any time without problems. At the pier by 10 o'clock everything is already busy, but earlier and there you can find a place. The beach is pebble, it's a bit inconvenient to enter, so people bathe from the pier. The sea is very clean. lots of small fish. The complete lack of trade near the hotel is depressing (I don’t count 5-10 small shops). It was necessary to order a car and go somewhere (people drove, the car was free). And also about the mini-bar. A bottle of water a day is free, but the rest there was a charge. In general, a good holiday for preemlimye money, if you do not bother and grumble for any reason. And I still don’t understand why they write that the hotel is in Side, the Turks themselves said that this is Alanya
