Traveled with my husband and 6 year old daughter. The main parameters that are important for us when choosing a hotel are green areas, the sea, a good beach. Also chose the hotel for the presence of slides and children's animation. The tour operator Tui arranged for the rest. Air flight Rose of the Winds (thanks for the advice to take sandwiches with you to eat. Since the child immediately wanted to eat when he got on the plane).
So, Turkey itself. Transfer to the hotel took about 40 minutes. We brought tourists to three hotels. And ours made us happy. The contingent of the hotel in 2016 is Scandinavians, British, Eastern Europe, Turks. Ukrainians were in the minority. I won't say it bothered us. Remembered English))). Appropriate and attitude.
We arrived at the hotel at about 12. It was not possible to check in right away. We were waiting for 14.00. We were offered to leave our luggage at the entrance and have lunch. Issued cards for towels. We were offered to change clothes at the spa. The check-in was delayed cleaning of the room - so the reception offered "exactly the same room, but cleaned. " Things taught by experience decided not to take, but just went to see. We were given a building opposite the slides (I don’t remember the number). The room turned out to be the last one on the second floor with a view of the technical premises. Since they didn’t take things with them, they returned and refused such happiness. We managed to get into the room after three. As a result, the same building, the same floor, but the room is somewhat further from the technical premises. View of orange trees, fence and neighboring hotel. We decided not to argue anymore. The number itself practically did not surprise us with anything - thanks to YouTube and video reviews (a very useful thing). So we were prepared for the fact that the children's bed will be at the entrance with a window into the corridor. Surprisingly, this arrangement did not bother the daughter. The window was curtained (and at night the light from the corridor was replaced by a night lamp). The room was actually at the end of the corridor, and between the window and the corridor there was a meter-long hole with a railing, especially in the evenings no one screamed. My daughter slept like a log.

Food arranged. It was delicious and not poisoned. There were fruits (watermelons, apples, plums, melons, grapes). The daughter still did not eat the delights. A week on spaghetti, French fries with nuggets and chocolate pancakes. My husband and I liked the saute.
The sea on the first day was very warm, straight hot (no coolness was felt). But for a few days the waves rose and the sea cooled down a bit. The entrance to the sea is gentle, sand / pebbles, but after a couple of meters it is quite deep. Therefore, it was impossible to let the daughter go to sea without a circle. The sea is salty, it burns the eyes, the child had to wear glasses. In the warm sea, fish biting at the bottom, it was impossible to stand in calm water for a long time, it was necessary to swim. When the waves rose, the fish disappeared. I was surprised by the European culture of the hotel - the absence of redneck. Things were calmly left on sunbeds and for the whole day they went to the slides, lunch, and sleep. When we returned, everything was in place. Don't worry about towels.
Gorki. Yes!! ! Yes!!! ! Yes!! ! The whole day Wandered from children's pools and slides to adults, even sunbathing did not work. In the morning, the sea. Then my daughter went to a children's paddling pool with slides and a fountain of flowing mushrooms, my husband and I went to adults. After lunch, when the paddling pool closes. daughter to the pool with 3 slides. Then again the sea. and for dinner. The Europeans spent all their time at the pool, where all the animation is. We did not appreciate the adult animation, as we were mostly at sea.
Animation for children. One of the reasons for the cat. chose a hotel - this is a children's Toucan club ("children will cry when they part....with animators. they are so cool... "), but it turned out that Toukan is closed (few of ours), Russian-speaking children are entertained by one girl (daughter is still in the club didn't want to. Much brighter was the team of Scandinavian guys. Evening children's show in Scandinavian-English with disco, dressing up and songs. The daughter looked and did not understand anything. After the children's show, the adults started. I liked the circus, the juggler. Brazilian, Turkish shows are boring.

Plus the hotel a large amount of bottled water in the bars, pools in the dining room. We ate ice cream at the children's club (we also got paid ice cream until we found the club).
The hotel has shops, but they are expensive aimed at the European tourist. On the last day we walked outside the territory to the market. At this bazaar, three kiosks were stingy with cheap souvenirs, by the way, they advised us to buy mattresses, because... see the comment above. it was not possible to bargain (there is a crisis and three tents have a sad Turkish seller).
Do not rush to buy circles / mattresses / cream before / after sunburn in the hotel. At the entrance opposite the reception, sun-weary hotel guests leave creams / books / flip flops before leaving)))). Mattresses are left in a box by the pool on the last day. We learned about this custom only on the day of departure))). Might help someone save some money.
I liked the rest, I felt like a European. My husband liked the beer, the sea, the slides, and the attitude. Daughter slides, pools and shows. Do we recommend the hotel for a holiday - yes!
