As in any sanatorium of the Crimea, the sanatorium "Cliff" has its pluses and minuses.
Pros:
1. Very good spacious room with renovation and new furniture (building 3, junior suite), an unusual view from the balcony (sea view), the room always smelled of pine needles and the sea.
2. Friendly and friendly staff - they settled in very quickly, offered to dine right there, although the lunch time had already passed, on the first evening they called the room, asked if everything was fine and if anything was needed. The room was cleaned every day (though not without errors), towels were changed upon request, all toiletries (shampoo, soap, shower gel) were constantly placed in the bathroom. Mineral water was in the room only on the day of check-in, in the following days we go to the pump room for water, cat. located on the first floor of building 3.

3. Nature, resort park, location - super! A place of extraordinary beauty. Well-groomed, clean territory, remoteness from the road and noise, a feeling of isolation and isolation from the whole Crimea. Fabulous island of the South Coast. But I would very much like the park to be given a lot of attention, to ennoble the territory a little, to make flower beds.
4. Excellent ecology (crystal air, clean water). You come home a different person: skin, hair, nails are like never before. Rest greatly strengthens the body, unless, of course, rest is not at the peak of the season.
5. Animation is presented by one young man, but he is enough for everything. He himself sings, plays, organizes walking tours, arranges discos, competitions, concerts, games with children. Very nice and positive person. Vacationers are delighted with it!
6. Good professional massage on the beach.
Minuses:
1. I would especially like to note the nurse who worked on the oxygen cocktail. She should be fired, because she spoils the impression of all the staff of the sanatorium, every day she was always rude to someone and yelled at someone. On the first day, it was very surprising to look at such rudeness, and then we laughed, because she looked comical.
2. The beach is not good - small with large stones, it is not convenient to go into the sea. But the beach is always clean. constantly cleaned, the sea is also clean, if there is no storm.
3. Sun loungers, umbrellas on the beach are paid, the use of a small pool is also paid. I believe that all this should be included in the cost of the tour, otherwise it seems like an absolute redneck.
4. Dining room - horror!! ! I don't want to go into detail about all of its shortcomings, but it's a nightmare that can't be called a buffet.
