Rather, between 4- and 4+. The hotel is located in the picturesque bay of Icmelera, just 100 meters from the sea, yes, you need to walk, but you can drop into the bar and the road will not take more than 3 minutes. The hotel is not bad, but it can be fresher, including in terms of fresh air. The rooms are compact but not without surprises, so check everything carefully (the door lock is not working, dirty linen, hair, dripping water from the ceiling in the bathroom when turned on)-there were precedents for replacing the room Lunch and dinner were excellent, but monotonous fish was 1-2 times a week. The sea is beautiful, there is an option with depth differences, it is possible to go in and just swim. The entrance to the sea is gentle, there are public beaches nearby. Although there are not enough sun beds, there is always enough space. Lots of bars for different wallets. Next to inflated prices in pounds, you can find normal ones. There is a free wi-fi, which hits the entire hotel and the bar From the cons: the breakfasts are simple and poor, the air conditioners can not cope with the heat in the room, so you have to keep them in non-stop status; there are few sunbeds on the beach and they are not in the first line+ directly opposite the rental of equipment; there is no bar on the beach; Russian-speaking staff (1 gavrik) he argues to the end that you are wrong; the rooms are cleaned chaotically (got 114)-the movement of the cart is not predictable, they will find you in the room a couple of times and that's it, we were here! If you are lucky and the room has been cleaned, then the floor will not be wiped, the linen may not be changed but simply turned over; at the time of arrival, the bar had a refrigerator with packed water for guests, but then legs were attached to it and replaced with a cooler, which I was afraid to approach without coal; the pool bar does not have a rich assortment, they make simple cocktails; there were minor light outages for 2-3 days! If you can't hold on for a while and it will be your fault - the official version; There is only a (!) rain shower in the bathroom and it is not always convenient, since it is mounted in the wall; the staff speaks little Russian, thanks to the staff of related services and Google translator.
In general, for a non-pretentious trip, it is quite a budget option with a smiling and ready to hear staff
The view from the beach is just beautiful, a bay among the mountains. The hotel is close to local supermarkets that are open until 23. The town itself is small and unlike Marmaris it is not so crowded, there are enough places on the beach for everyone.Minibuses run along Ichmeler and in 15 minutes you can be in Marmaris, or in 30 minutes by water taxi. Another taxi takes you to Turuncha, another picturesque bay
The staff is good, they always help with all questions (if you can explain what you need to with them), everyone is polite and hospitable. There is a large selection of different foods, but I did not like the fact that meat is mainly chicken and fish. There were also turkey kebabs. For almost two weeks (mid-October), there was only melon and watermelon from fruits. In the last days of our vacation, watermelon and melons probably ran out. They began to lay out oranges, tangerines and apples. With alcohol, everything is so-so... There is a choice, but it is not big. There is no rum and cognac. They don't make any cocktails. Well, maybe they mix whiskey and Coke, but it doesn't even look like a Cuba Libre. If there were rum and liqueurs, you could try to mix something interesting, but not... The rooms are normal... for 4 stars. I didn't like that there is a door (okay, at least it's locked) between the rooms, but the sound insulation is bad. Neighbors can be heard talking and watching TV. In recent days, a gang of British people have stopped by there (in several rooms at once), they are so tired of them... They are constantly yelling, screaming, some kind of fights, scandals were bred there. An ambulance was called there for some reason. And so nomrally, yes. There is also an old-model TV, there is not even a USB interface in the TV. Only one Russian-language channel is working. The TV Rus channel from Germany broadcasts this. If you watch movies, then you need to take a laptop in general. The room is cleaned every day (but there were rare exceptions when they did not), towels were changed, shampoos, shower gels. There is Wi-Fi in the hotel, but it is not very good... The connection is cut off when video calls happen. There are Turkish baths with massages in the adjacent building. Good baths and massages are good, but the price is too expensive, it seems to me. There are similar offers at noticeably lower prices from the sole sellers of excursions. They're sitting there every step of the way. We came to rest with the Pegasus company. The Pegasus guide appeared only once in two weeks. On the second day in the morning at a meeting where he offered his excursions at inflated prices, but this is as usual in general. He was not seen again and did not answer the phone either to us or to the receptionist from the hotel.
The beach is good, on the territory of the hotel it is sandy there without pebbles. The neighboring hotel has sand and pebbles, but not here. Just the sand. Well, it's like a beach here... There is a beach area of several hotels at once, as if in a separate grappa. They just got hooked in general. The green sun beds were put next to the others and that's it. In the evening, a person came and rearranged those sunbeds carefully, but no one touched ours. As their people turned half a turn clockwise to the sun over the mountain on the right in the morning, they stand for several days until the people themselves rearrange them in some other way. There is a shower and a changing room, and the nearest toilet is at the Savash cafe there on the right along the path to the bridge over the river. It's nearby. Now in the middle of October there were few people and there were no problems with sun beds. There were always a lot of free sunbeds. There may have been problems with this during the season. Now the hotel was already kind of empty, there had been no animations for the last few weeks, no imported artists, only bingo and karaoke (but then that was gone). In principle, there are no problems with entertainment there. There are bars and restaurants everywhere. Just bring the money and everything will be fine. Fitness is worse there. I found only one gym nearby at Fantan with Dolphins. Just running and swimming is not enough for me. It would be nice if the hotel organized a gym. I did not take photos of the hotel, including there will be no photos. I didn't find anything worth taking a picture of.
Russian Russian is a very, very decent 4* hotel, pleasant staff, although with the abundance of Russian tourists, they do not understand the Russian language very well. So, improve your English a little or download an offline translator, it may be useful to you. One more thing, there is a hammam, an exceptional place, that's a must-visit, there is somewhere cheaper, of course, for the price, but according to the reviews of other tourists who visited other hamams, this is the best. The food is quite decent, you will not stay hungry. The room stock is a little tired, but not critical. WiFi is only available at the reception or on the lobby. The hotel is located on the second line and it is three and a half minutes to the beach, specially marked. I recommend you to visit a really decent hotel!!!
