Seher Resort and Spa 5* Seher Resort & Spa 5*

I had a rest in Turkey from April 18 to April 27.2011, I lived at the Seher Resort and Spa 5 * hotel (Side, Evrenseki district). Located on the first line. The hotel consists of 2 buildings: the main building, which houses the entire infrastructure of the hotel, and the residential building, which contains only guest rooms. The hotel is mainly focused on the Germans, as elsewhere in Side, the staff speaks English and German well, there are few Russian speakers, but everything you need will be understood anyway and the gits from your tour operators are always in place. To the center of Side by bus (dolmus minibus) it takes about 20 minutes, the cost is 2.5 lira or 2 dollars. To the center of Manavgat, 30-40 minutes, the cost is the same.
Arriving at the hotel at 9.00 in the morning, having completed all the documents, all my things were placed in the luggage room and offered to go to have breakfast, because. according to international standards, guests must vacate the room before 12.00, and check-in takes place at 14.00.
1. Hotel. I was given a room not in the main building, but in a nearby building, i. e. exit the hotel and immediately to the right is a marble path, passing along it, you find yourself in another building of the hotel. The room has the usual layout: the living room itself and the bathroom. The bed looks like a double bed, BUT……. It consisted of two single beds pushed together. This really bothered me, because. the double bed should be one, and not made up of several. For me personally, it was a minus.

Upon arrival at the hotel, be sure to take a safe so that your things (passports, tickets, telephones, cameras, money, etc. ) do not disappear, its cost is $ 3 per day. Also in the room is provided: shower gel; liquid soap in the shower; ordinary soap; shower cap; 2 towels per person and a foot towel. Bed linen is changed after 3 days, towels were changed after 2 days. Beach towels must be taken at the reception, call the room number and take the required number of towels if you decide in a day, two, three, etc. change the towel for a clean one, then you will need to pay for it, I don’t know the cost, because did not change, rarely went to the beach. When you check out, do not forget to return the beach towel to where you took it, otherwise you will be billed for the lost item. This hotel has its own beach, sun loungers and mattresses, you don’t need to pay for anything, come and use it.
2. Regarding nutrition. The food is very good, as for slaughter, every day a variety of dishes. Breakfast starts at 7.30 and until 10.00, then a late breakfast, then lunch from 12.30 to 14.00, from 14.00 to 19.00 there is an afternoon snack, but I did not get it, because I was on excursions all the time, and from 19.00 to 21.00 dinner. A huge selection of dishes, cheeses, cottage cheese, muesli, dried fruits, jams, butter, meat (chicken, beef, lamb), fish, salads, vegetables (both raw and baked), a lot of hot dishes, 2 types of soup, a huge selection pastries and cakes, fruits, several types of tea and coffee, juices and much more - in general, you will not remain hungry, and there will be no indigestion either, the food is close to European cuisine, but you can also try Turkish cuisine, a lot of sauces and spicy marinated vegetables, so the choice is yours. Naturally, all this is provided in the form of a buffet, so that everyone walks with large plates and has time to take the tastiest.
4. Animation. This was a huge disadvantage of this hotel, there was no animation at all, with the exception of the Germans who constantly drank and ate in the evening in the lobby bar, which created such noise and din, as if a huge swarm of bees had flown into the apiary. After dinner, there was simply nothing to do, no discos, no entertainment, no animation. Some guests went to a nearby hotel, because. there entertainment for guests was more organized than in this one. Maybe all this is due to the fact that it is not the season, but……. . !!!!!!! ! there were many vacationers and could take care of this issue.
3. Guides at the hotel. I was very, very lucky with the guide, I flew with Pegas Touristik, and 2-3 guides were present at the hotel, they replaced each other, but most of all I talked with Tatyana. A beautiful girl, she didn’t sell anything to anyone, didn’t agitate, she explained everything in a very accessible and understandable way, what was paid and what was free, where to use what, where to go, solved any questions, was present at the hotel from 8.45 to 10.30 and from 17.00 (17.30) to 19.30 and there was such a feeling that even if something happened, no one would leave you and always help, which in reality was the case.

Summing up, I can say that the hotel is very good, meets its declared 5 *, it is worth visiting especially during the season.
P. S. The weather in March in Side is quite warm. It's a little chilly in the morning, so you won't get too hot in a sweatshirt. Starting at about 10.00 hours it is already getting warmer, you can go to the beach to sunbathe. The sun seems to be still quite spring, but in Turkey it is not yet the season and it is considered cold, but it gets pretty hot, so that you may well get sunburned, which happened to several tourists, so be sure to take sunscreen. The sea, of course, is still cold, but there were those whom this did not stop. From about 18.00 it starts to get colder and a cool wind rises. But during this period in Turkey there are both very hot days, you can safely walk in shorts, T-shirts, sundresses, as well as cool and rainy days, so be sure to take jeans, a warm jacket, and sneakers with you. In general, for lovers of excursions and walks, this is a good period, and it is not hot, the sun does not scorch, and it is not cold. For those who want to get a tan and come with bronze skin, it is better, of course, the end of April and May or August-September.
