We rested at Clab Belinda in August with my husband and child. We chose it because friends praised it very much, and I read positive reviews. But I was very disappointed! ! ! The same summer in June I was with a child in a cheap 3 * hotel and I liked it much more! ! ! And Belinda 4 * and twice as expensive! ! ! So the price-quality ratio is not justified! ! ! For the price it should be better! And now in order
1. The rooms are small, dark, RAW, musty and musty. This is in all rooms, and in those near the pool with slides - in general, water flows along the walls! ! ! Mosquitoes - just monsters, no matter how much you kill - they fly from the ventilation. Fumitoks does not cope with them. Maybe it's because of the river nearby - but the humidity and dampness are terrible! ! ! There’s just nothing to breathe… I didn’t even imagine that it could be so humid in such heat! And since the houses are 3-storey, then a third of the rooms are on the 1st floor!
And the lawn sprinklers turned on at night flood the balconies very much and everything left on them is in general wet everything and everywhere and I don’t want to return to the room at all.

2. Food - the food, of course, is very plentiful and varied, yes, we ate too much, of course, it’s not great either, but we couldn’t do anything with ourselves ...But I don’t advise going to the Ala carte restaurant - the menu there is fixed and not at all interesting - what - a barbecue, some fruit - in general, nonsense compared to a general restaurant. But the service is very slow and we had to leave without eating because the child did not want to miss the mini disco.
3. Animation - of course there is, but we were not particularly pleased. Children's mini-disco is fun, but the adult show is firstly in German, and secondly it is an "amateur performance of a rural club" - we watched it a couple of times and didn’t want to anymore. There is daytime animation, but we didn’t go to it - it’s very hot.
4. There is also nowhere to go for a walk around.
The promenade along the sea, which everyone praises so much, it's just tears! ! ! Made and planted there, of course, everything is beautiful, but WHAT TO DO THERE? ! If only to look through the fences in neighboring hotels. There is nothing on it - no music, no entertainment, no cafes, no shops and souvenir shops - that's why there is NO ONE walking even in the season itself! ! ! I would be afraid to go there alone!
You still have to go to the village and there is just a VILLAGE! If only to wander around the shops for us, and WALKING there is not at all pleasant ...(unlike, for example, the village of AVSALAR where it is very civilized and pleasant)
5. The sea - of course the sea is beautiful and the beach and the coast and the entry into the sea are sandy and smooth - a paradise for children. But again a big BUT - the way from the hotel to the beach.
It seems that it’s not far to go, but my child and I love to walk, But it’s one thing to walk in a pleasant place, and it’s quite another to run through the open sun between a construction site and a wasteland, dodging dusty and smoking buses that bring tourists from other hotels. The child had to be constantly grabbed and dragged to the side from under the wheels of buses, and the path to the sea was more like a cross - who will run first than a pleasant walk.

6. Hamam and sauna - it's just awful! ! ! Such dirt, mold on the walls and devastation, I just have not seen anywhere else! Even in a 3 * hotel there was a free and very clean hammam, but here a terrible wash room where it was even very squeamish to go, not to wash. Brrr, it's not even pleasant to remember.
Conclusion - why pay that kind of money and not have fun when for the same money you can go to a much more decent 4 * hotel with the same good beach and much better conditions.
At least even take the neighboring SanMar. And Belinda is not worth the money.

PS I forgot one more thing - they steal a lot there! ! ! And it's ridiculous - they steal children's cheap toys, scoops and buckets, air mattresses and circles. Our neighbors had even more serious losses. In general, everyone is taken away - one has only to turn away! ! ! Be careful! ! !
