We had a rest together with my daughter from 18.10.24 to 25.10.24. The hotel is 4 with a minus. The advantages of this hotel, for us personally, were: close proximity to the airport; clean sea; delicious food; good, unobtrusive animation; the presence of small bazaars near and near the hotel (we were happy to walk through them and make small purchases of souvenirs, textiles and fruits).
Now about the cons:
- I knew perfectly well that we were going to 4*, but still, even in Russian 3* hotels we have disposable kits - shampoo, conditioner, tooth.pasta, shower cap.
- paid wi-fi of terrible quality, I constantly had to switch, it was unrealistic to download something!
- room cleaning. On day 3, we realized that no one cleans the floors and surfaces in the room. The girls only made the bed and took out the trash. And, apparently, they haven't washed or vacuumed the floors for a long time, because my daughter found glass fragments under the bed. And this despite the fact that I left $1 on the bed every day. And so, when on the 3rd day I swept the pieces into the middle of the room and did not leave a dollar, the cleaning was done perfectly. So take your time with tips)))
- lighting in the room. It's very dark!
- a $10 deposit for a beach towel. We were lucky - we got the money back at the end of the vacation. And some people don't. The fact is that when you make a deposit on a towel, at the reception they give you a plastic card on a towel and write out a receipt on a pink piece of paper. And if you lose this pink piece of paper and return only the plastic, the money will not be returned to you. This was the case with several tourists.
- dirty beach. The beach is not cleaned, only the dishes are cleaned. Piles of cigarette butts, wrappers, etc.
- a cold pool. You can't explain to children that it's cold to swim in the pool, even if the slides are turned on. Either heat up the pool, or do not turn on the slides in the autumn-spring period.
- lack of a toilet on the beach or lack of culture among vacationers. There is a shower and a changing room on the beach. The nearest toilet is by the pool. Many are too lazy to go up to the toilet to the pool and they relieve themselves in the shower. From which, by the middle of the day, there is a terrible smell of urine. Therefore, we had to leave the beach after 11 o'clock and sit by the pool.
- for me, Turkey is an abundance of fruits - melons, watermelons at least. But on our vacation dates, watermelon was given only 1 time at dinner, melons were 2 times. From fruits - apples and plums. Sliced oranges and tangerines a couple of times too. Therefore, we bought fruits on the street - strawberries, pomegranates, oranges, melon.
We were at the end of April 2024, literally the first race of the season. The staff is very pleasant, everyone is polite, the cleaning is good. The food was delicious, there was enough of everything. Cocktails were made at the bar, besides vodka, Gin, whiskey, red and white wine. The beach is private, nearby, there are small pebbles, the depth is gradual and good. Plenty of sun beds. There is a volleyball court, a tennis table. There was no animation in our race yet, in the evening they played music for the guests, like a disco. We went to Kemer by bus on our own. Everything is nearby. There are shops behind the hotel. By the way, from the ballroom or the Wi-Fi of the neighboring five. In general, we liked everything.
The lovely four, the first line, the food was good, I had enough of everything, good coffee from the coffee machine, the beach is wonderful, sun beds, mattresses, canopies are all there. The room is clean, large, safe and Internet for a fee, towels on deposit.The staff is excellent, they will always help. but the most important thing is the views of the mountains, the stunning beauty. I'd love to come back.
