We arrived at the hotel with a friend at 7 in the morning, they gave money, we were sent for breakfast, and after breakfast we were settled in a good room for three people. We immediately left our things, changed clothes and went to the beach to the sea. It takes 10 minutes to get to the beach, there is a car, but until 16:30, this is of course a minus, since people are all on the beach until 19:00-20:00. The food was good, varied. In the morning, women fried delicious scrambled eggs in front of you in a pan with a filling of your choice. They also made delicious waffles that can be poured with chocolate or honey. At lunch and dinner there were different meats and fish. The only thing due to the pandemic was huge queues in restaurants, long wait. There was a good selection of fruits (peaches, nectarines, apples, pears, plums, watermelons, melons, apricots, grapes and all different varieties). With us, different cakes were prepared by the chef. The staff was not very Russified. There were also few Russians in the hotel, mostly Germans, Serbs, Czechs, many Turks. But this is even a plus. At the reception, out of 4 administrators, only one knows Russian, but now there are voice translators, there are no problems. Foreigners are all friendly and welcoming. At 15:30 they gave delicious goat milk ice cream, although the queues were also huge and it ended quickly. At lunch, they cooked Gozleme cake on the beach. Alcohol, like in many hotels in Turkey, is so-so. We drank beer and cocktails mostly. There was a snack bar on the beach, the man who poured drinks there was well disposed only to foreigners. When I had a bite to eat at the table in the shade, he sent me to another table under a fracture, saying that you are alone and there are no good tables to occupy. The hotel is really European, there were some of the staff who showed hostility as soon as they heard Russian speech. The bar on the beach is open until 17:00, which is also inconvenient, you won’t find drinks in the evening, there’s a lot to go to the hotel, and there isn’t enough water with you for a long time, as it’s very hot. Animation was nakaya. Teatr one actor, a man who speaks at the same time one set of words from Turkish, German and English. There were days when it was not there at all, and if it was only from 22:00 to 23:00, and then basically it was a Bingo lottery. Sometimes he himself danced and sang and that's it. The hotel is family, for a relaxing holiday, we were young, it was a bit boring for us in the evening, we just sat in the lobby or at the bar. There are also no discos. The guys in Bari are doing great work both in the tail and in the mane, they treat you well. Near the hotel there are many shops and shops, the prices are normal. The territory is small near the hotel, but we spent the whole day on the beach, and so there is a big nice pool. In principle, if you go with families, I recommend this hotel, the sandy beach is a bit dirty, but it's better than pebbles and slabs, the sea is gentle, beautiful. On the territory of the hotel, on the beach and in the rooms there is excellent wi-fi free and high speed.
A negative trace was left by the guide from Anex Tour Rauf Musaev. After arrival, we had a meeting with him, his attitude was boorish, even I would say like cattle. He began to sell us excursions that we didn’t want, then he began to ask for the room. He directly said that he wanted to sleep, I answered him that he was behaving inappropriately, and that if I arrived without a husband, then it’s definitely not for adventure. He said a holiday romance is not treason, and began to ask about the poses that I like, I just wanted to spit, but my upbringing allowed me to restrain myself. In general, he sold us excursions, passing them off as something else. We took a tour of Side, he didn’t even tell what was included in it, I asked if the canyon would be famous, he said yes, but in fact it wasn’t. I sold the excursion to the yacht, but it turned out to be a pirate ship, interesting only for children. We didn’t get satisfaction from them, but we threw away a lot of money. I hope the hotel staff will see this review and stop working with such a nasty person. There are reviews about him on the Internet, he worked at other resorts and in other travel companies. They asked him in vatsap how long the tour was and what to take with him, he was silent. Took money and didn't provide service. In general, everything went well, the main disadvantage is the guide, but fortunately not everyone has it.
