When you read the reviews, you get a terrible impression about this hotel. Friends, Crimea is not sleek Sochi and not Turkey, of course. Personally, we go to the Crimea for health, air, nature, no matter how naive it sounds. We were in Marat in 2019 and 2020 - not everything is as terrible as many write. Of the benefits - a large pool with a water slide, a cable car will lower you to the sea for free, for others, not hotel guests, for money. I agree, the beach with cobblestones in the sea, it’s not convenient to enter, but there is a canopy and you can sunbathe in the shade, who shouldn’t be in the open sun, there are enough sunbeds. Now food: the usual boarding house food, not a restaurant, of course, but there is meat, fish, chicken, vegetables and side dishes. No one has ever gone hungry. Another plus - animation from morning to 22.00, children's animation, adult karaoke and disco by the pool, darts, volleyball. There was a great company of families with children with disabilities during our race, we still remember our volleyball tournaments with warmth. On vacation, you need to relax, and not walk around with your phone and take pictures of smudges on the ceiling in the dining room and garbage on the beach. Better rooms in building 1, in building 2 older furniture and plumbing. We lived in both. In the 2nd building there are more children, there are 2 bunk beds and you can settle in three. Our daughter found friends there, hung out with them all the time, we also saw a plus in this. Wifi only in the lobby. But for me personally, this is a plus, I work at the computer all day, staring at the phone while I go home on the subway. So I need a reboot, I only reacted positively to this. WiFi is good at the pool. The territory is green, they watch it, mow the bushes. Oksana, a wonderful female guide, told us about Marat's plants, she sold various oils on the territory and led a free tour. Marat is conveniently located: near the Vorontsov and Livadia palaces, not very far from Yalta. We didn’t like it on the beach last year, some kind of desolation, many cafes moved out, but you can eat everything hehe by the sea and upstairs next to the hotel. The mini-market is expensive, the prices are more expensive than in Moscow. And the last thing: in Marat in the evenings it's fun, dancing, karaoke, parties are different. This is not available in nearby hotels. All the movement at the pool bar. There is no need to look for one negative, we are going to rest and personally in my phone there were amazing pictures of the hotel area, the sea, I put everything on my Instagram stories. And when I read super negative reviews, not healthy criticism, but negative ones, I definitely go to the profile of this person and see that he writes the same review for both the hotel in Turkey and the hotel in Bulgaria. As psychologists say, "You're not talking about me, you're talking about yourself. " So relax and enjoy your vacation. It's all up to us.
