Мы в Pemare побывали – отдыхали и бухали! We visited Pemare - rested and drank!

To begin with, we chose for a long time where and when to go, and the day before departure, the travel agency offered to go to this particular hotel, which is allegedly located in Side. In the evening, read the reviews, nothing caused negative emotions. And now we went to rest from 08/01/2009. to 08.08. 2009 In total, the location of the hotel in the village of Okudzhalar, just between Side and Alanya.
The first impression, of course, struck me - huge pools, a large green area, which you can’t tell from the photographs, children’s attractions, go-karting, and a clean, well-groomed beach. And now in order:
1) the food is good European. A lot of different salads, vegetable cuts, peaches, apricots, grapes, plums, pears, watermelons, cherries from fruits (changed during the day), meat mainly chicken, and in the evening chicken, and turkey, and meat stew, and fish, there are plenty to choose from. The morning is full of jams, muesli, canned fruit. If you are traveling with children, there is a separate baby food. The service staff is good, friendly, both in the bars and in the main restaurant.

2) drink drinks throughout the day, as much as you like, and as for alcohol, they pour a lot and whatever you want, but clearly until 24.00, exactly at 23.59, the waiters change their faces and they don’t understand the Russian language, like everything is paid. Disco in the hotel from 23.00, but everything is paid on it too.
3) animation during the day is weak, unobtrusive, they have fun on their own, they don’t force anyone to do anything, if you want, participate, if you want, no. Animators - a group of Georgian youth aged 16 to 25 years. In the evening, in the amphitheater, the show program: Russian-Ukrainian evening, sultan show, fire show, beach and foam parties, this can be seen from the animators has already been rehearsed, so it's worth going and seeing. The foam party is just super, within an hour foam flies at you, and literally reaches the waist.
4) the sea and the beach are clean, constantly cleaned, the entrance to the sea is small and medium pebbles, it is more convenient to walk in shoes, sun loungers, umbrellas and mattresses are full at any time of the day. There is a huge pier from which you can dive.
5) the pools are large, deep, there are also small ones for children. What struck me the most was that you can swim at any time of the day or night, and as much as you want, no one will reprimand you, but the bleach from the pool is rushing all day long. Lots of sun loungers, you can always find.
6) as for the rooms, the most ordinary ones, we had a 3-bed room on the 6th floor, clean and everything worked. The room was cleaned every day, but mostly in the afternoon, when it was crazy hot, and all the vacationers were mostly in the rooms, and I had to “politely” refuse cleaning, although the next day they already came in the morning. As a result, only 3 times were removed in 8 days. Elevators are a different story, there are only 4 elevators for the whole hotel, 2 on each wing, and when you stand waiting for 5 minutes, and someone from the 4th floor goes to 3, or from 2 to 1, there were simply no words!

7) regarding excursions, if you don’t have a huge amount, then take it better outside the hotel, the service and insurance are the same as in the hotel, and on excursions all people are still in the same mass, but save something. We went rafting, super, from the hotel $ 40 per person, and we paid $ 65 for three (and also bargained a little). This also applies to souvenirs, in hotel shops the sellers are impudent, so go out of the territory and safely bargain.
And judging in general, the hotel corresponds to its stars, if there were any little things, we didn’t pay attention, and everything was translated as a joke, so if you were going to go here, bolder, I think, like us, about my vacation you won't regret it later.
