decided to go to the hotel spontaneously. having arrived in Istanbul for two weeks, at first they did not plan to leave anywhere. but on the 4th day in Constantinople (far from being the first trip to Istanbul and everything was viewed many times), we decided that we still need to hit the road somewhere, close the season. The trip was planned in Fethiye, but alas, the weather let us down. so tickets to Antalya were bought ($50 round trip). The hotel was chosen by friends, so I personally saw only his photo. I even read the title on the spot.
The hotel is new. Opened this year. There are no questions about the interior - everything is new and beautiful. of the minuses near the hotel is construction and an abandoned hotel. She doesn't interfere but still. For the rest there are no complaints. Nearby there is a cafe and a market and shops and a pharmacy.
The hotel area is compact. There is no feeling of pressure or lack of space. Two large pools, one for children and another with slides. there is an indoor spa center. The water in the pools, as for me, was icy, the Germans did not. and they and the children did not climb out of there. I liked the spa. Prices for massages, peelings, etc. European.

BEACH. Small, clean. We were in October, the hotel was not 100% full, so there were enough places for everyone. In the morning the beach is clean, the sand is sifted, etc. Toward evening - cigarette butts, papers, food, etc. here the claim is not to the hotel, but to the citizens having a rest. The bar on the beach is good, you can also have lunch right there without returning to the hotel. There is also a gorgeous fat cat. Complete nonsense. There were no algae in the sea, and there were no strong waves either. Everyone bathed very well. The river was almost dry, there was no smell from it. Most likely because there was no particular heat. The hotel employees said that they were going to somehow solve the problem of this river next year, but I didn’t listen to what exactly the plan was)))
ROOM. Excellent new, bright, beautiful room. All equipment is working. There were no complaints about cleaning or filling the mini bar. We found 5 Russian channels on TV, 10 German, Turkish, English and 20 Ukrainian. The bathroom has everything you need and more. We had a view of the sea and pools. In the evening, the animation with the door open is audible well, with the door closed it is almost inaudible. upon arrival received a bottle of wine, fruit and nuts. Water and tea set replenished daily. we didn’t drink the rest (there are also packaged juices and soda in the mini bar). Cleaning was every day. Cleaned up well. We walked barefoot and I can say for sure that the floors were clean. The hotel also provides bathrobes and slippers. Towels were changed every day. Once the cleaning lady came when we were in the room - she had a nice chat with us in German and left. Then she waited until we left and started cleaning. By the way, if you take my previous experience of relaxing in Turkish hotels - I found myself in a similar situation, and so the cleaners never returned later in other places. But this is by the way.
NUTRITION. In all bars of the hotel you can order any kind of drinks, including alcoholic drinks, as well as seeds, nuts, fruits. You can take water and ayran yourself in refrigerators. Breakfast is the best food in this hotel in my opinion. A chic selection of cheeses, eggs, omelettes for every taste, bread, pastries, fruits, vegetables, herbs - it's full. Also, cereals, cereals, jams, honey, even honey was in the combs, I had not seen this before. tea, coffee from vending machines, juices. Turkish coffee is not made in the restaurant, you need to go to the lobby (for fans).
From what upset - I did not find freshly squeezed juice. still 5 stars. I hope they take it into account in the future. lunch and dinner are almost the same. For dinner, fish and barbecue meat are served in addition, cooked by the pool. I read reviews here that the soups are bad. Nonsense is complete. Perhaps, of course, someone expected to see cabbage soup, borscht, kharcho, etc. in a Turkish hotel, then I understand the disappointment. soups are excellent - 1-2 types for lunch and dinner. Soups-puree. From what I remember there were tomato with cheese, pumpkin, vegetable and local with lentils. Lots of fish and meat. As well as vegetables, fruits and sweets. There is pizza, they make sushi for dinner. From side dishes potatoes (fries, mashed potatoes, baked, boiled diet), rice, pilaf. eat boiled vegetables. The availability of dishes is monitored, as soon as something ends, they immediately take out a new one. drinks can be ordered from the waiters, although you can take it yourself. The table is cleared quickly, the staff is friendly.

ANIMATION. Aimed at the German public, although the animators speak Turkish, English and Russian. On children's animation, children specify the "country of production". I've only seen the animation in English-German once. The rest of the time only in German. Russian children, if they were in the hotel, did not participate in the animation. During the adult animation, we preferred to sit in the lobby bar, we were by the pool only once. There was a Miss Hotel contest, in German, of course. I got the impression that the animators themselves participated in it, because no matter how many times I looked at the stage, the contestants sat motionless on chairs, and the animators jumped, sang, danced, etc. When there are young people in the hotel, the animators offer trips to the disco.
At the time of our stay at the hotel, almost all tourists were Germans. We met a Russian couple and it turned out that they had been living in Germany for quite a long time. There were no Russian-speaking youth at all (a young couple who were always sleeping by the pool is all we found) as well as young people in general. Mostly elderly Germans and families with children. maybe it was different in the summer.
I did not notice any biased attitude towards myself from the side of the staff, although many here complain about this. I didn't mind when the waiters spoke to me in German, smiling sweetly and that's all. when they asked where they came from and heard that they were from Ukraine, they switched to Russian or English. There were no conflicts with anyone.
Output. Liked the hotel. Quiet, calm and comfortable. There are no claims.
