For several years we have been looking at a vacation in Shepilskaya, because there was a lot of attraction, but we saw a lot of negativity in the reviews and the world is not close to the Dnipro.
As I tell my clients, in order to have a good rest, you need to give your internal auditor a rest.
Therefore, clearly assessing all the pros and cons without rose-colored glasses, we relaxed for 8 nights in Shepilskaya.

The comfort suite with a terrace in the main building is what prompted us to come here by 40%.
A spacious living room with a sofa, a separate bedroom with a bathroom and a cool, perhaps better called a patio and a terrace with sun loungers. Incredible view of the entire territory of the complex during the day and night.
The renovation is old, the floor creaks terribly, there is no soundproofing, but this did not prevent both adults and children from getting a good night's sleep and having a good rest.


Many thanks to the maids. Without any requests or additional requests, the bed linen was changed twice in 8 nights, towels almost every day. In emergency mode, when a small child broke a glass on the terrace, they immediately ran and carefully cleaned everything up, left immediately with a first aid kit and it was done.
Every day they put a bottle of 0.5 water per person in the room, there is a pump room in Kryly. But this is not enough, 90% of people have cars - it is not a problem to take them with them, for others - a quest.
Only 2 coolers were found on the entire territory of the complex (in the SPA and gym), why not put more?
At least in the game room in the attic, by the way, where it is incredibly stuffy in the summer and from where you can take at least table tennis outside in the warm season. But in the children's playroom in Kryly, and there is a nice room, there is a nanny for 2 hours in the evening, but there is no water.

The Swedish line works fully in the morning, everything is enough and tasty.
For lunch and dinner, there is a good menu, many dishes, everything is always available, they cook quickly and tasty.
The waiters are really children, they can mess something up and work like bees, polite and decent.
There is only one specific complaint.
We were on a package deal and it included a festive dinner, for which we chose venison tartare from the menu. But we didn't get to try that meat, because they brought a terribly spicy dish that we couldn't eat. And the tasting made my gastritis worse. Therefore, be sure to indicate not just allergens on the menu, but SPICY.
Also, in the package offer, it is worth immediately prescribing how much of what and for how many nights is included.
Special thanks for the availability and preparation of the picnic.

Fishing is good with its own equipment, then you can get normal carp or grass carp from the depths. On rental fishing rods, of which only 1-2 workers just have fun under the shore with roach and groupers, there was also a mirror gram for 300 and released together with everyone.

The outdoor pool and water park are cool on the one hand and just CHAOS on the other.

The pool is open from 11, but at this time it is already a problem to find a couple of free sun loungers, because everyone is very smart somehow already left their rags in the morning. Then the daytime visitors spread out around so that it is impossible to get to their sun loungers, food in mega barrels, watermelons, etc. and this is in the hotel area! And complete chaos in the pool, like sprats and sardines. They bring whole camps of children to swim in the evening, and since you paid a lot of money at the hotel and want to relax, that's your problem.
We have escaped the heat and crowds at the Spa several times, everything is in order there, towels, sun loungers, chairs, a small pool, a bar, and the saunas are clean and comfortable.
Never have we been so happy about cloudy days when there were almost no outsiders and 10 people in line for the slides.
It would be very nice to have a separate pool for residents and control it.

Even with so many people, I have not seen a single lifeguard or medical aid point, in case the ambulance doesn't get there in time...

The territory is super beautiful, walk, walk, breathe, enjoy. Feed the deer and other animals, but forget about their stuffed animals in the main restaurant and rooms. This is a disgusting act that really repelled going here.

Overall, I enjoyed my vacation and I really hope that you will soon do repairs in the main building and remove those stuffed animals, at least to some separate place or museum for those who want to.
