We traveled in a group. We had 4 rooms. Both in the first and in the second kolrpusah. I'll start with the cons. Although, as for me - who are cons, and who are not. 1. The entrance to the sea is medium pebble. We went in without shoes. It can be difficult for overweight and elderly people. 2. Internet is free, only in the lobby and then it is weak.

We traveled in a group. We had 4 rooms. Both in the first and in the second kolrpusah.
I'll start with the cons. Although, as for me - who are cons, and who are not.
1. The entrance to the sea is medium pebble. We went in without shoes. It can be difficult for overweight and elderly people.
2. Internet is free, only in the lobby and then it is weak.
3. There is no kettle and tea sets in the room.
4. In the bathroom there are only soap and shampoo dispensers.
5. Sea 500 steps or 250 meters. Considered!
6. Another disadvantage can be considered queues in bars. But we took 3 glasses for each. And everything is fine! There is no limit for one. Take as much as you can take. There are no queues late at night.
The rest is pluses!
1. The rooms are spacious and beautiful. The plumbing and air conditioning all work great.
2. Diverse food: chicken, beef, fish, lamb. All in different variations. There were once sushi and mussels and red fish. Grill lunch and dinner every day. Fruits: green and red apples, plums, oranges, apricots, blue and green grapes, watermelons, melons. Oh, and a lot of baking. Side dishes: 2 types of rice, mashed potatoes, 3 types of pasta, fries. And all sorts of stewed mixtures: eggplant, zucchini, carrots, corn, beans...
Salads, cheeses, herbs, pickles as usual.
3. Alcohol: vodka, cognac, white and red wine, tequila, rum, gin, Baileys. And cocktails.
POUR A LOT! They don't save. Baileys drank glasses.
5. Animation is! Water gymnastics, children's entertainment. Football, volleyball. Show at the amphitheatre. Discos every evening on the street near the night bar. Until the last visitor.
6. Bazaars are not far away and Lira shopping center is 2 km away. We went shopping.
We were happy and comfortable. I advise.

The hotel was chosen by friends from Russia and we decided to join. Having booked the hotel, I began to study the reviews, and got scared. I read a lot of negative. However, given the frequent holidays in Turkey / Egypt, etc. , I decided not to bathe. Because People tend to get caught up in the little things.

The hotel was chosen by friends from Russia and we decided to join. Having booked the hotel, I began to study the reviews, and got scared. I read a lot of negative. However, given the frequent holidays in Turkey / Egypt, etc. , I decided not to bathe. Because People tend to get caught up in the little things. Arriving at the place, I immediately realized: I like it here. Having not visited the beach/dining room/grounds yet, I just checked in and fell in love with this hotel. Everything is fine, everything works, everything is clean.
You can see the recent construction of the hotel, the quality functionality of everything. At the same time, expensive materials and equipment, but a step above many other "tired" hotels. The staff is helpful without being rude and like. . . come back later. Many little things are well thought out. The beach is small pebbles, slightly larger in the water. Depth - through three-four steps. The food is great for me, but I'm picky.
Minor drawbacks: free Wi-Fi only in two specific places; as elsewhere, weak when there are many users. There are many people with a dining room (restaurant) and there are not always enough places for a large company, like ours (8 people). This is understandable, the hotel is large and there are a lot of people. We have solved the problem: do not go at the opening hour, when the most hungry are standing. And in an hour. All the same food, but less people. And yet - a weak gym. But three workouts were enough for me.
As a result, I want to return to this hotel again.

In general, friends, the mere fact that the hotel decided to divide the guests according to nationality speaks volumes, the Russians wear orange bracelets, the Europeans wear blue ones, the official version of the hotel, which they give you at the reception with a memorized phrase, they say you can drink at the bar with an orange bracelet from 00-00 to 2-00, and the blue ones cannot, lie!!! ! In reality, blue bracelets have an advantage in service, the waiter in the restaurant will bring them a drink, the Russians stomp for a drink yourself, at the bar the bartender will serve first all the blue bracelets, and then you, if you don’t leave, tired of standing in line.

Racism in its purest form on the territory of a single hotel, you want to feel like a second-class person, Welcome!! ! Hotel Sanmelia will organize everything for you!
Now about the room, spacious relatively clean. The maids enter the room even if there is a “do not disturb” sign on the door, which surprised us a lot. For a week of rest, bath towels were changed once, face towels never.
There were enough sun loungers for everyone on the sea, there were never any problems (unlike the pools, where half are occupied with empty towels). The entrance to the sea is just tough, it was stormy all week, the sea is 2 meters and a cliff, immediately deep, with a small child to swim without options, waves with stones hurt the legs, so it is advisable to have special shoes, the hotel sells for 15 euros, on the market which is a 10 min walk from the hotel 4 dollars.
Separately, I want to note the Russian-speaking girl at the issuance of towels, who managed to be rude out of the blue, the story is this if you didn’t hand over your towels in the evening, then in the morning they won’t change them for you, you go to the beach with wet ones, we didn’t know this rule (only arrived the first day ) instead of explaining it, she just rudely sent us, and what was our surprise when in the evening they refused to accept towels from us, they say the washing machine broke down, come tomorrow evening, in short 3 days with towels standing in the corner from salt, we knew that we are going to a low-level hotel, but we didn’t expect to take beach towels with us, we found a way out, tadammm, at the hotel you can easily buy towels for $ 20)))
I did not like the hotel, the whole vacation there was a feeling that you were not welcome here.

Not the first time in Turkey. Three of us rested: me, husband, child 4.5 years old. Pros of the hotel: Clean, fresh room, individual air conditioning in the room. Green, beautiful area, albeit small. Cons of the hotel: Feeling that I got into an anthill, especially in the main restaurant for dinner.

Pros of the hotel: Clean, fresh room, individual air conditioning in the room. Green, beautiful area, albeit small.
Cons of the hotel: Feeling that I got into an anthill, especially in the main restaurant for dinner. Queues for everything. There were never enough forks for everyone, there was a shortage of teaspoons. The food is not tasty and very poorly prepared. The kitchen looked like students were working, constantly dried french fries and a burnt pizza. There are "watchers" so that people do not take food out of the restaurant.
You need to get up early on the beach and take sun loungers, otherwise you will come and wallow on the pebbles.
Water slides are constantly turned off, as the pump overheats. And this is in the 21st century, just laughing.
Wifi is paid, but at the reception it catches badly.
There was a feeling that you were not welcome everywhere, as if you had come to them on a free ticket))) The attitude can change dramatically to a radiant smile if you suddenly get a pack of dollars. We personally observed such a picture.

We liked the design of the hotel and its newness. . . however, the experience was spoiled by poor food, queues at the food restaurant, drinks, fruit quality, poor ventilation and noise from the neighboring hotel and the stench that came from the spoiled remains of food from the neighboring hotel.
