The hotel is super, it met all expectations!
The location is great, you can walk to the old town.
The beach is super, clean and well maintained.
Everything was perfect for food, the night buffet was good, and no one was hungry after the flight. The food is varied, and there are excellent restaurants throughout the day.
The hotel has 2 large pools, one quiet and the other with music. Very convenient, you can choose according to your mood.
The staff is great, everyone helps, friendly.
The rooms are new, spacious, everything is there except for a toothbrush, it was strange) but the minus is not significant. Otherwise, everything was great, the minibar was replenished, the safe was free, they forgot to close it a couple of times - no one stole anything.
If you're just looking for cons, it's animation, it's not super active. But it was mostly sports games, a weak show in the evening, and karaoke (it was fun, everyone was dancing)
was quite enough for me.
The hotel is suitable for a quiet cultural holiday, music does not interfere, there are many foreigners. It may be a bit boring with children, although everything is adapted for children. Even baby food and a blender are on the shelf.
I showed photos and videos to friends and relatives - everyone really wanted to visit here. I think this is the best estimate without any words)
Barut Goia (Beautiful Barut)
Answering frequently asked questions: we are 500% satisfied with the hotel; the food is very tasty and varied - meat/fish/fruits/vegetables/desserts/vegan/gluten-free/baby corner; the cleanliness of the room/hotel is 10/10; the comfort of the rooms/hotel infrastructure is 10/10; a gentle, child-friendly access to the sea is two steps and there's the softest silky sand underfoot in the water; the animation is super! The guys from the animation team are very attentive to children; interesting evening shows (if you need dancing until morning and carnivals, this is not the story!) first comes the mini-disco, and after 9, the adult program begins.
Now in order :)
We were looking for a small hotel without noisy night activities, and taking into account the children (food, access to the sea, pools, etc.), we settled on Barut Goia initially because of the more Scandinavian style of architecture/design and based on information about the recent renovation.
The hotel is really "fresh" - the rooms/halls/bathrooms are all new, high-quality, tactile and visually pleasing. The shared bathrooms are clean, everything is available (well, you know). The rooms are large and consist of two rooms. Our Windows overlooked the water slides - there was no discomfort from the noise. Comfortable mattresses, clean linen, comfortable pillows. There are sliding mosquito nets at the exit to the balcony and on the windows. Curtains (my separate love) are just a total blackout!!! Excellent sound insulation; good air conditioners. There are a lot of hangers in the closet, a lot of shelves, drawers where you can put things. We went to an ultra-all-day refilled mini-bar (beer/cola/fanta/water plastic/glass/juice)
The hotel is located on the second line - on foot (you need to cross the road) it takes 7 minutes to walk to the sea; I read that such a dusty road is just creepy- in fact, not at all. There is a bus (the timetable is posted at the entrance to the main lobby) the trip takes 2-3 minutes. One of the wishes is until 11 o'clock, so that the bus runs every 15 minutes, and after that you can have a half-hour break :)
There are a lot of sun beds on the beach - very comfortable, quick-drying, umbrellas are not flimsy. Change clothes, shower, wash your feet - everything is there.
Gentle entry into the water, sand in the water-a separate relaxation. The beach has slightly rougher sand.
The territory of the hotel is divided into two parts (there is an underground/ground passage). The sides are almost mirrored, with the exception of the tennis court/basketball court and water slides.
The pool/sea bars are open from 11 a.m. - you can take drinks/ fruits/sandwiches/snacks/cakes/ice cream, etc.- everything is fresh and delicious, everything is replenished on time.
In general, we can say separately that the nutrition level is TOP- it seems to me that there is EVERYTHING FOR EVERY TASTE!! The administrator is always in the hall, the chef comes out and controls the layout so that everything is beautiful and in sufficient quantity. Since we were in April and had only captured the first days of May, the hotel was not fully filled yet (perhaps at the peak, I can't say otherwise), there was no hustle, fuss - everything was measured and calm.
There are two a la carte restaurants, recording, as usual, day after day (guest relations said that it is better to close the recording by 11h in full). We visited only 1-the children were not interested in waiting, although the service was fast. Therefore, they continued to eat mostly Inanna.
Friendly receptionists always greet us at the entrance to the restaurant (special thanks to Anastasia - she answered all our questions, is always ready to help -politely, kindly and with a smile!) We were supposed to leave the hotel at 12:30, just at that time the restaurant was just opening for lunch - they went to meet us and let us in at almost 12 o'clock.
On the ground floor (just where you can move from one part of the hotel to another) there are tables for table tennis (free of charge) billiards / air hockey / children's slot machines -you need to buy a token in Migros market, out of inconvenience - you can not pay by card or cash, only charger card - the best way to know in advance what course and how they will recalculate it.
There is a variety of music playing by the pools - softly, without strain. It's incendiary during the day, and relaxing in the evening.
There is an indoor swimming pool, a sauna/hammam and a spa area nearby.
There are no difficulties with changing towels.
Activities include darts during the day, beach volleyball, boccia, basketball, tennis court, zumba, water aerobics, etc.
Animation - a huge hello to Chikan!!! Easy, humorous, unobtrusive, incendiary, delicate - dancing, karaoke, contests - everything is GREAT!
I would definitely recommend a hotel for a relaxing family vacation! I really hope we'll be back! Thank you for a wonderful stay!
