1. Great beach. It is large, sandy, equipped with sheds, there is a bar with karaoke and a rescue station with a boat. Rescuers really monitor the situation, a couple of times they returned careless mattresses to the shore, which were blown into the sea (there was a strong wind). The beach is cleaned daily, around the bins, everything is clean. The entrance to the sea is very gentle, the bottom is sand.
2. I liked the territory of the boarding house - a lot of greenery and flowers, the territory is monitored and it is noticeable.
3. On the territory there is a cafe, some entertainment for children, in the evening - a disco. All this is concentrated away from residential buildings, so it does not interfere with sleep. There is a cafe near the boarding house - there you can rent a buggy, an ATV, or sign up for diving.

4. We lived in a 5-storey building, so I will only talk about it. In principle, not bad, as they say, poor but clean. Rooms with a view of either the sea or the territory. To the sea - 50 meters. The room has air conditioning, TV, refrigerator and shared bathroom. There is a balcony. I’ll tell you about the bathroom separately: it’s tiny, sitting (sorry) on the toilet, you can easily wash yourself at the same time, there is no bath, there is a shower. In our bathroom, water was leaking from the ceiling, they didn’t notice when checking in, then they didn’t want to bother - it didn’t really bother. The water was cold and hot around the clock (although we lived on the 2nd floor, I don’t know how it is on the 5th). Garbage is cleaned every day, vacuumed once every 5 days. There are no complaints about the room itself, the furniture is in order, the windows are double-glazed windows, there is a mosquito net. Except for the bathroom, it justifies its 2-3 stars.
By the way, the building is under video surveillance. Not in the rooms, of course, but in the hallway/hall. I think it's a security measure against theft.
5. Nutrition - scoop. Both in terms of the type of dining room and the quality of the food, although we were not hungry, we ate to satiety. For food I put "satisfactory", I do not pull on more. The attendants are young boys and girls, there is little experience, but they try, there are no complaints about the service.
6. From the negative - several times we sat for a couple of hours without electricity. At what in the main building there was light. I suspect that the old networks cannot cope with the load when everyone turns on air conditioners, and they all turn on when it is +35 outside!
7. No public Wi-Fi! Despite the fact that the Internet in the boarding house is available - on a separate computer, for 20 UAH / hour.
8. Jellyfish - there were a huge number of them, they didn’t really buy because of them - they only came in to plunge, and then very carefully. Unfortunately, it was very hot all the time of our stay, the sea is calm - ideal conditions for jellyfish.
Summary. Ideal for a family with small children. The sea, the beach, children's entertainment - everything is fine. If you are traveling without children, you will not like it, small children scream, run around and cause a lot of inconvenience. About 80% of families were with children.
The price is too high considering the living conditions and meals. On the other hand, there is no such beach, and even close to housing, anywhere else in Olenevka, for this it may make sense and overpay.
P. S. On the way home, we made a stop near Mezhvodnoe. There is no beach - the rocks and the sea are restless, but there are no jellyfish at all - I advise you to take into account those for whom jellyfish are
a serious problem.
