Sauvignon is a cottage village outside Odessa towards Ilyichevsk. Literally a couple of kilometers from Odessa.
Everything is respectable, barriers, security, walkie-talkies, etc.
We lived in Kolyada itself, they also have a Lux Hotel and First Line of the Sea. With the settlement and the number everything is ok. The parking lot is small, but you can always find a spot. The territory is not big, neat. To go down to the beach just a few minutes on the stairs, a little annoying climb. There were no sun loungers and umbrellas on the beach, but the sand is so clean and pleasant that a sun lounger was not needed. The water in the sea is amazing, very clean, gorgeous bottom. The hotel website states that they have their own beach with sun loungers. As it were, yes, but you need to understand that these are several sun loungers on a concrete shore opposite the First Line of the Sea building.
The saddest thing begins in the restaurant of the hotel and restaurant complex Kolyada.

The menu says in black and white Lemonade 1 liter - 60 UAH. The bill scored - two bottles of Morshynska, lemon fresh, mint, cost -138 UAH.
What is in the account? We are told - it's lemonade. All 8 people present at the table are surprised, accustomed to the accurate service of the city of Kyiv and many cities and countries of the world. Slowly we begin to see clearly and ask to invite the administrator. The admin is in no hurry, why hurry then. I ask what is this? The answer is, we have so much lemonade. Let's skip the question of how 1 liter of lemonade can cost 138 UAH, this is their business, their restaurant and their pricing policy. But why is the menu 60 UAH? The admin is silent, mumbles and again notifies that they have a price of 138 UAH for lemonade, it stands on its own. I say, you are obliged to sell us at the price indicated in your menu (elementary consumer rights). The manager obviously has no idea what I'm talking about. As a result, she leaves with the account and disappears, she manages to find her a little later, she again declares that everything has been broken through the program and she cannot cancel. An explosion of the brain, we pay the bill and deduct the amount that some kind of horseradish sticked to us on the bill. Prindent number 2 at the same lunch, on the menu a burger with veal and potatoes at a price of 80 UAH. Yes, indeed, a burger can cost 80 UAH and it can cost an order of magnitude more, but it must match. We order, they bring a burger the size of a cigarette pack. But, where is the potato, which is again declared on the menu? And she is not. The question is, where are the potatoes? The answer is, we no longer include potatoes in this dish. What then is written on the menu with potatoes and why we were not warned before ordering - rhetorical questions. Well, let's go through the service - breakfast is included. I am sure that the owners of the complex have been to different hotels in different countries of the world. And I would be interested to hear their opinion about the "breakfast included in Kolyada" service. Buffet that is always half empty and not replenished. Despite the fact that it does not depend on whether you came for breakfast at 8.00 or at 10.30. But the high level is when a man takes three pancakes on the buffet, and the waitress tells him, NOT ALLOWED. How can it not be on the buffet, is this the first question? And the second question, what kind of answer is the soviet type boarding house? I heard the same answer about cappuccino for breakfast - NOT ALLOWED. Dear, Not “NOT ALLOWED”, but for breakfast we have a choice of espresso and americano, for example, can you answer like this? Although, this is also more of a rhetorical question.
I don't know what it is, stupidity, stupidity or a thoughtful move. But personally, my opinion is that the owners saved on staff.
Pros: location, tranquility, sea

Of the minuses: several restaurants throughout the village, also with shops and stalls. Juice can be bought for 80 UAH, mineral water for 30-40. There are no alternatives. Personally, we went every day to Odessa, lemonade for 138 UAH per liter, which is expensive for us considering the service and location. With such a price, it should be a restaurant, not a cafe Kolyada, who imagined that they work in the V? P segment.
CONCLUSION: if you do not use the services of the complex, then the place is excellent.
