Милый сердцу дом - Вилла Елена К! Dear home - Villa Elena K!

Many good words have been written about the rest at Villa Elena K in Miskhor - and all of them are absolutely true. We were personally convinced of this while relaxing in this wonderful place from June 12 to 23 this year. To begin with, a vacation on the South Coast in June was a discovery for me personally. This was my fourth visit to the Crimea, unlike my boys (husband and almost three-year-old son), who visited this blessed peninsula for the first time. Previously, I visited the Crimean coast from July to September inclusive, and I thought that June was not the most favorable time here. How wrong I was! Firstly, the sea turned out to be quite acceptable for swimming temperatures - up to 24 degrees. Secondly, there is no intense heat, and even a couple of days it rained heavily, which greatly refresh the air and contribute to the lush abundance of vegetation in the parks and gardens of Crimea. We are not fond of lying on the beach for hours, but we really like to walk through the wonderful parks of Crimea, go on various excursions to countless Crimean sights and just float along the embankments of the cozy coastal towns of the South Coast, looking into cozy cafes with a varied menu (we especially liked seafood dishes ). And it is much more pleasant to do it when there is no such intense heat as in July and August.
I note separately that among all the towns and villages in which I previously stayed in the Crimea, Miskhor is out of competition. In my opinion, of all the delightful places on the Crimean coast, this is the most picturesque and cozy place. An amazing Miskhor park, through which it is a great pleasure to go to the beaches and take a walk on the embankment. We swam and sunbathed on the beach of the sanatorium "Sea Surf" (40 hryvnia per person. Children are free). The road to the beach also passes through a picturesque park, which is very nice. I do not understand the complaints that the hotel is far from the beach and it is inconvenient to walk. In my opinion, for active and more or less healthy people who love the unique landscapes, nature and healing air of the coast of the South Coast (otherwise, why come here at all? All Inclusive is waiting for you in Egypt and Turkey), and who are interested in unique historical places and countless sights of Crimea - 15 minutes walking along the picturesque paths - this is not a distance, but a pleasure! And this despite the fact that we had a child without a week of three years old, whom our dad periodically carried in his arms (especially when climbing).
The location of Miskhor is very good in terms of the accessibility of many interesting places: Ai-Petri (15 minutes walk from the hotel to the cable car), the Vorontsov Palace and a wonderful park in Alupka (if you wish, you can walk for 25-30 minutes, we once done), Yalta (20 minutes by taxi and about 40 minutes by bus), the Zoo and the Glade of Fairy Tales, the Swallow's Nest, Gurzuf (they sailed on pleasure boats, which, by the way, have a pier near the Rusalka beach in Miskhor). And many many others.

And how lucky we are that, in addition to all this splendor, we also stayed at Villa Elena K, with the wonderful Natalia and Andrey! How wonderful it is to feel at home on vacation! As if you came for the holidays to your beloved kindest and most caring aunt! It's not transferable! Natalia is a person whose heart is always open to everyone who wishes to open up to meet. You can be sure that all your requests (sane, of course) will be fulfilled. You will be treated with all the attention and care, they will help you in a difficult situation, and they will do everything to make your stay at the hotel the most pleasant experience. Be sure to take an interest in your impressions of each day of rest. And if you suddenly, for example, do not eat meat, delicious and varied breakfasts, lunches and dinners without meat products will be prepared separately for you. In general, be prepared for the fact that your individual tastes and eating habits will be taken into account down to the smallest detail.
As we wrote earlier in reviews about the hotel, everything is really thought out to the smallest detail. Everything is cared for. My little son, of course, was amazed by the number and variety of children's toys, a cute sandbox and a wonderful house for kids in the backyard of the hotel. And what child (and not only a child) doesn't love sweet surprises in the form of a delicious variety of homemade muffins and buns for breakfast? And even compote especially for kids : )
And we also fell in love! To the terrace on the third floor : ) We probably have 100 photos of this same terrace in different weather and at different times of the day. It is amazing in itself, but especially when combined with the magnificent landscapes that open from it. In addition, in addition to our favorite terrace, you can find other cozy and quiet places to relax in the hotel. Here, too, everything is very well thought out. By the way, we already wrote earlier that you can ask for a separate meal on the terrace or in the gazebo in the backyard. Dine on the terrace - it's just a delight!
Dry facts about the availability of Wi-Fi (very important for us), parking for cars, spacious and clean rooms with everything that a good hotel should have (air conditioning, TV, refrigerator, etc. ), including a beautiful sea view, high-quality cleaning , transfer organization, taxi call, detailed orientations where and how to go, where to eat, where you can buy, etc. , you can read in previous reviews.
I want to note the wonderful, very friendly and delicate hotel staff. Alinochka, Sasha, Lilechka - girls who carefully helped to make our stay very comfortable, and my son actively made eyes at them : ) Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
My review is probably too full of enthusiasm, and therefore it may not seem sincere to someone, but what can I do. If we really loved Villa Elena K?

The only fly in the ointment in this pool of honey, I can name concrete mixers and trucks with building materials, which are very noisy along the Koreiz highway, located below, not far from the hotel. Natalia and all the locals are very sad about this noise, which, according to the law, should not be from May to September, because at this time all construction on the coast is prohibited! But there is a rumor that some grandiose object is being built at an accelerated pace near Alupka for our “precious” VVPutin. It is clear that the authorities made an exception for such an important person. If not for the multi-ton trucks, the road would be almost invisible. Let's hope that by the time we return to the Villa in September this year, a special object will already be erected and there will be no minuses in our vacation at all.
And to come back here is not something that is worth it - I REALLY WANT!!! ! For our magnificent vacation, we thank with all our hearts the Almighty, Crimea, Miskhor, Villa Elena K, and, without fail, Natalia - the manager and keeper of the hearth of this dear home!
