Наш замечательный отдых! Our wonderful vacation!

In Turkey for the first time, perhaps that's why we liked almost everything. Flights without delay (flying from Krasnoyarsk), transfer on time, very comfortable (Coral company). The guides are also very good girls, no one imposed anything. Hotel guide Elena was always at the hotel at the designated time. We got the number 3302 - I thought "oh horror! " right next door to 3303, which I had heard from previous reviews, but everything was fine, I practically didn’t hear the road, the mullah too, although a couple of times it smelled of sewage in that area - they just closed the balcony (it wasn’t very stuffy - they didn’t turn on the air conditioning). Of course, they didn’t clean up so hot, but I’m not a super-cleaner, it didn’t bother us, towels were changed every day, I don’t know, we didn’t dirty much, we only left tips once. Maybe if they left more often, cleaning would be better, but it’s us wasn't too worried. The food, as already mentioned, is not super, but you won’t stay hungry, salads, turkey, chicken are quite enough (in my opinion), my son really liked the rice - it’s interestingly cooked, I don’t know how)). for dinner they did a grill - meat, fish, once there was even lamb, everything was delicious. ice cream was given a couple of times for dinner, the child was happy. The queue, of course, was for the grill, but not tense, standing for 5 minutes was okay (again, my personal opinion). Mosquitoes bit me and my child, but my bites passed quickly and didn’t itch much - my son was a little worse, smeared with Fenistil, I took the fumigator with me, but on the very first day I forgot to turn it off and thought that it burned out and didn’t turn it on anymore . I smeared my son with a cream at night, but they still bit. I have never seen midges near the pool, everything was fine. the first three days at 7 in the morning I scored sunbeds by the pool, because it was not yet completely rebuilt for Turkish time and got up early, but then they sunbathed on the beach, there are always plenty of free ones.
We took 3 excursions from Coral (the third one had a 50% discount): Istanbul (my husband flew alone), to Seapark, to the Viking yacht, the whole place cost us $ 580, I don’t know if this is a lot or normal. My husband liked it in Istanbul, though they fed there only 1 time per day; Seapark is half an hour drive from the hotel - there is a large 6-meter snorkel pool, beautiful fish, underwater statues, a sunken ship. there is a pool with stingrays and sharks. there are also 3 slides, although the descent is not into the pool, but just into the water, they also went to a dolphin show, this excursion lasted from 9 to 4, they fed 1 time - well, everything is fine on the Viking, the child had fun (we went at 1 noon), we dived with him in vests from the slide, which is built into the yacht, there didn’t seem to be big waves, I don’t swim very well, so I put on a vest, my son did too (he is 6 years old).
Souvenirs were bought in shops across the street from the hotel, a little cheaper there than in the hotel store.

I will also write in the end about the so-called peeling. On the second day, a Turkish man offered us a peeling + massage in the bathhouse at the hotel, $ 45 per person, the child is free. Well, we agreed (it’s necessary to do peeling before tanning! ), Came, paid, went to the Turkish bath (you can go to it for free from 16-18), sat there for 10 minutes, came to us to do peeling, a guy with a girl, they just we were rubbed with a special mitten (this mitten costs $2), foam massage - they poured foam on the body, that's all. then they gave me tea, and at the end they did an oil massage - not bad, but still I would not give 45 dollars for a massage. across the street from the hotel I saw an ad for peeling and massage for $ 20.
We also went to the nearby Pemar hotel on the carousel, a $ 2 ticket - my son liked to ride there.
That's our whole holiday - we all really enjoyed it!
