Just returned from this hotel. Fresh impressions. I will try to speak without emotions - only facts.
The previous reviews are quite true, but. . . Last year we were in a very good hotel in Kemer, and this year we decided to save money. Therefore, it is a sin to complain, but figuratively speaking "that year we visited Disneyland, and now we were in Luna Park)))".
1. We took a room with a sea view - they gave it right away and successfully. Friends changed 3 times on their own initiative and the 4th time at the suggestion of the girl at the reception. The last option turned out to be the most successful. Change quietly.

2. Beach - pebbles. there is a narrow strip of sand along the edge, but the entrance is pebbly and problematic. There are a lot of sunbeds, a canopy - there are no problems sunbathing, but the sea... We were campaigned by a sandy beach for a child, what is there... Since this is not a bay, but the open sea - it is always stormy. Checked on our own and other people's experience, no one has seen a calm sea. Immediately deep + waves - the child himself cannot enter at all. Only with armlets with my help - otherwise it will cover with a wave - to swing on the waves without a bottom. You understand, they swayed for about 10 minutes - interest was gone. The sea is dirty. The first two days we went in the morning - there was nothing, mud after dinner. Then there was no difference, the picture is the same. Foam on the water and constantly floating in bulk, something dark, similar to waste products. (They say that it is of plant origin, but it seems. To be honest, I tried not to consider it). At first I forced the child to go to the sea - it is useful, then it became unpleasant for me to swim in such water and stopped.
3. Restaurant. Not rich. Of course, there are plenty of salads and sweets and some kind of snacks, there were boiled dishes. But based on what to give a child of 8 years old as a main course (if he doesn’t eat fish), there were also hungry days. It seems that there is some kind of meat - but it's really tasteless. There are fruits, but often not ripe.
4. Service staff - a big plus - a lot of Russian speakers. The waitresses are students from the tourism academy (as we were told). There are almost always Russian girls at the reception. Special thanks to Olesya. The most artistic animators are also Russians (+ Ukraine + Georgia).
5. Number - no complaints. Only one thing - there is one bottle of liquid soap attached above the sink. Those. in the shower you have nothing to wash. Or you need to run out of the shower with a washcloth - collect liquid soap, climb into the shower. Then repeat))) We begged for a bar of soap separately through the reception. This is in the main building, maybe not in a bungalow. Air conditioning, by the way, is individual, it works even with an open balcony door. On TV No. 21.23, 24 - Russian channels.
6. Pool and sunbeds. There are a lot of sun loungers, and quality ones, but at seven in the morning (if you look for a place in the shade under a canopy) I managed to take it only at the far end of the pool. It was impossible to get up before. The pool for the little ones is big and beautiful, but in the sun itself.
7. Animation. Praised children's clubs exist, but after last year (with costume games and a big club) it's more like two gingerbread houses and amateur clubs in them. My child didn't go there during the day. The mini-disco is good - friendly with a cool club dance. I also liked the evening show - Guaranteed to be busy at 21-30 o'clock. Moreover, it seemed like everything was not serious - but it was always funny and positive.

8. The main plus is some kind of informal friendly atmosphere in general. No one pushes, no one swears. the hotel is not huge. There is no national discrimination.
9. Excursions. We went rafting with a child. Both she and I liked it very much, I was afraid for the child, but in fact it’s not scary. Everything is safe and exciting. A pirate yacht is only for children, I was bored, because. you sit on a yacht for half a day, there is nowhere to go. But the priority is the children, and they are happy.
10. Nature, of course, is mostly absent. Wasteland. We stopped by on the way to Pegasos - there is already greenery around, trees, even a child looked at it all with envy. The territory of our hotel - and grass, and bushes, and flower beds, but there is no real greenery. I knew it would. But when you later check into a green hotel, the difference is painfully noticeable... Therefore, we won’t go to the desert anymore.
