We rested in the second half of June in Lira with my mother, sister and child. Immediately upon arrival, incomprehensible clarifications began - they tried to accommodate everyone in a bungalow, in which there was a room of 3 by 3 meters and two narrow beds. There is not enough room for two, let alone four. The guide who met us at the airport, after 40 minutes of clarifying the situation with the reception, refused to decide anything, said they say decide for yourself, I can’t do anything . . To all questions, the administrator said that he did not speak Russian, bring the guide and let him figure it out... As a result, an hour and a half later, when I just started to demand my voucher back, they decided to settle in the main building with a surcharge of 50 USD. And despite the fact that the hotel itself confirmed the settlement in the main building 3 + 1, they still settled in the smallest room, where one bed is larger and the second is smaller (I'm already silent and the view of the sea . . : )). . . )
But after such a "meeting" there was simply no strength to swear further.
The hotel area is not that small - it's just tiny. The pool for children is tiny, in a corner - it's just that the children would not fit there if everyone swam there, because the children swam in the main pool...

The main restaurant, it seems, is not at all designed for the number of people who come to the hotel - if you come half an hour after the start, then finding a free table is simply unrealistic. And when you come in an hour, it’s not a fact that there will be all the dishes, especially fruits. If watermelons were constantly, then grapes and peaches were usually put only at the beginning - whoever had time, got it . .
Although this season the hotel has an Ultra All Inclusive system, for 2 weeks I personally saw imported drinks only the first 2 days - then everything was Turkish-made, including Baileys liquor... : ))
Another very big minus is that the hotel is located just in the middle of the field - there is only one more hotel nearby (Washington), a couple of Turkish houses, such as a market and that's all - that is, at least there is nowhere to just walk there. I don’t know why Lira was assigned to the region Side - go to Side by bus for 40 minutes.
I definitely don’t want to return to the same hotel - for the first time in my life I wanted to go home quickly from the first day.
My personal opinion - choose some other hotel, but definitely not Lira...
