Романтическая неделя в Гурзуфе Romantic week in Gurzuf

Rested with her husband in the sanatorium "Pearl of Crimea" branch Gurzuf. The hotel is average, but then our budget did not allow us to buy something more luxurious. The advantages of the hotel include a beautiful well-groomed territory (an abundance of flower beds, a palm alley, a small grove of olive trees, flowering oleanders and much more), an excellent small-pebble beach, which is closed to outsiders (tourists living in the hotel are issued a pass to the beach, without a pass they won’t let you in there, the beach area is fenced and there is a guard), a wonderful view of Ayu-Dag (you can sit on a bench on the territory of the hotel in the evening to admire one of the most beautiful Crimean mountains), the rooms also offer a good view of either the mountains and the park, or sea ​ ​ and Ayu-dag. I also consider the convenient location of the hotel to be an advantage (from the buildings to the sea from 50-100 meters, next to the Gurzuf embankment, where you can take a walk and have fun in the evening). There is a cool disco on the territory of the hotel, various parties are held there every evening, my husband and I got to the "Caribbean Party" (the staff was dressed in a pirate style, there was a fair show) and "Girl" (stripters performed). Outside the hotel, there are also many open-air nightclubs, both young and old oriented. In general, in the evening there is something to do. The disadvantages of the hotel are as follows: buildings and a dining room of the Soviet type; the food (we had full board) is terrible, the food is monotonous and not tasty, so we ate mainly in cafes on the Gurzuf embankment, since there are a great many of them for every taste and wealth, I really liked the bars right on the seashore where they light them on the tables in the evening candles and give out blankets (because there is a cool breeze by the sea at night), thereby creating a very romantic atmosphere: candlelight dinner by the sea, you are sitting wrapped in a soft blanket, with a glass of wine and your loved one - unforgettable moments. In general, I really liked the village of Gurzuf and left the best impressions. From Gurzuf you can easily get to Yalta (about 20 minutes by bus) and to the Nikitinsky Botanical Garden (10 minutes). We went on an excursion "Sea trip to Cape Plaka" is a boat trip, we liked the tour very much. We saw the Ayu-Dag mountain and the Adalary rocks nearby, looked into the Pushkin grotto, there was a stop in the village of Utyos, where we went ashore and climbed the Utyos rock from where an incredibly beautiful view opens, on the way back dolphins followed our boat, for the first time I life saw a flock of dolphins in nature, and not in a dolphinarium, was a complete delight. Memories of this trip still evoke a lot of positive emotions in me, despite some shortcomings of the hotel.
