Hello. Yesterday we just arrived from the Crimea. Want back! Sea, sun, friends, disco under the starry sky.
Actually, on a subject. I have been going to Crimea for a long time. 13 years already. And I don’t want to change my summer vacation spot yet. We ended up in Hellas after savage holidays with tents, then there were 2 trips to Dneproges, after which we finally moved to Hellas last year. In 2011 they lived in Plyazh, in this they settled in private apartments in a green building.
Upon arrival, we were picked up by the Hellas driver with some delay. For 400 UAH. I took you in a comfortable minivan.

Part of our company had already moved in, and we crossed paths with the owner the next day to give the rest of the money. For some reason, he did not want to take rubles, so he had to go to Alushta. Although, perhaps, thanks to him for this. Just went to eat at our favorite restaurant "Vstrecha". I advise you - service and cuisine are at a high level, but for some reason they do not book tables by phone. Let's go back to Hellas.
The manager with whom I spoke on the Internet did not say who to contact upon arrival. We found out quickly, but this waste of time can be avoided by telling who to call.
As for the room, everything was as promised. A kitchen with all the stuffing, a bathroom with a washing machine (it's generally convenient - I returned with a suitcase of clean clothes)))) Two-room suite. The smaller room does not have a window, but there is a stained-glass window made of colored cubes. It was hot. I advise the owners to think about the fan. The large room is bright, there are a lot of bedside tables, which is for a company of 6 people. is a significant plus. I also want to say that towels, pillows, and bed linen were in abundance. Traditional white balcony overlooking the sea, plastic furniture.
The downside was the cleaning of the room. Did not have. They took out the trash themselves. True, it's close. The bed was not changed. There are no particular complaints here. At home, we don't change every day either. Towels were washed. But the floor, at least sometimes, I wanted to be wiped.
A taxi to Alushta, and in general, anywhere you can call at the reception in the Hellas Beach building. The car arrived within 15 minutes. The prices are adequate. For a minibus paid 140 UAH. For a passenger car - 100 UAH. There is also an exchanger at the reception.
The course, of course, is not very 240 UAH / 1000 rubles, but, as they say, there is fish for lack of fish and cancer. Sea. We are not lovers of "seal" on the beach, except perhaps just to swim, dive a little. It was great to go into the sea without any shoes next to the rocking chair. Three steps passed and depth. The beach itself is clean. Pebble one to one. In a storm, of course, it's dirty. But this is not a claim to Hellas. Yes, and what can be claims. The sea is either there or it isn't.
Few bought in stores. Except water. Someone already here wrote that the pharmacy is cheaper. Your truth. The way it is.

Internet. It was not in our room. Despite the fact that the owner said the password. We went to the embankment. But in general, I heard from many that the trouble is with the Internet, but they say that the 21st century is in the yard.
Pro nutrition. We do not provide breakfast, so we ate in the yellow restaurant mainly. The chicken broth with noodles was not impressive, but the beef with dill sauce was very good! Friends went to Hellas Beach a couple of times, paid 60 UAH. and had breakfast there. I don't know why you don't like the service there. Very nice and nice guys too. By the way, last year I tasted ice aligote there. Excellent thirst quencher.
In Lemon, the guys apparently did not have a good day. The beer was mixed up, part of the order was not brought because the waiter forgot to write it down. But, in principle, under the air conditioner and under the "correct" beer (by the way, delicious - White Chernihiv), you can sit. I liked the hodgepodge - they do not spare meat here, as well as homemade soup with meatballs - delicious! Special thanks to the chef for the Greek salad. Excellent dressing and lots of feta! : -Р But the chicken chop should still be served with sauce. Dry.
In Ireya, I managed to try only french fries, but the ketchup for it was wonderful
Actually, like everyone below, the best thing in the sky lounge. And service, and cuisine, and hookah, and cocktails. I liked everything we took from the food - baked potatoes, shish kebab, and rapans in creamy sauce, and Duchess fish (AMAZING)... I don’t remember everything... Special thanks for the mojito. I have never drunk such an amount in my whole life))))) The guys-waiters are great. Order received very quickly and efficiently. And in general it was nice to sit there....Eh!....The only negative was the music there. It feels like someone is a fan of Zaz))) I can give advice to the manager for free. Take Jamiroquai, Sade and chill-out for decoration. Believe me, this music will be interesting to listen to both young people and those who. . .
I am silent about the music in the yellow restaurant. Nizhnevartovsk walked and he liked it.

I won't talk about leisure time. Evening and night time spent in other places, and this is a completely different story. Thank you, Ellas, for your hospitality. Look forward to visiting next year.
