The hotel is good, family-run, the food is wonderful, the water park in the hotel, the water park on the beach, the pool is huge, there is a separate pool for "more expensive" rooms with access to the pool directly from the room. On the "island" (this is the territory of several Eftalia hotels) there is a more interesting water park than in the hotel, bars, restaurants, a market, concert venues. Everything on the "island" is also included in the all inclusive.
For whom it is important, Russians were not met at the hotel for some reason.
The vacation with the children was great!
We stayed at this hotel in May 2024 with a family with children. Nice, large, comfortable rooms. Well-maintained territory. There is a swimming pool, adult and children's on site, 4 adult large slides, 4 medium slides and a children's water town. The lobby bar is open 24 hours. The burger joint, where you can have a snack, is also open around the clock. They are fed for slaughter, and on every corner of both the hotel and the beach. Even strawberries and apricots were given. Ice cream is distributed in packages.
The sea is across the road via an underpass. The beach area is huge, shared with other hotels of the grid. The entrance is not good everywhere, but there are places with a sandy entrance. Mattresses are brought by a beach employee on request for free. On the beach there are 2 adult pools, a children's water park with a lazy river, a huge adult water park, an amphitheater, a children's club, several bars, they have a snack. In the evening, live music is played on the beach, there is a disco. The territory is large, so it is convenient to walk, there is no need to go anywhere. The hotel is predominantly European, there are few Russians, two percent. On Sundays, a large bazaar with things arrives right behind the hotel. I definitely recommend this hotel.
This is a bomb, I really liked the hotel, the freshness of the hotel played a huge role, as it is brand new, the food is flawlessly good, everything is super clean and smooth, the food is very good. All the days spent inside the hotel were remembered on the good side, there is a desire to return again
Vacation in June 2024, we flew from Minsk, I don't understand the bad reviews, the hotel is more than for my money, it's just a fairy tale for children, we don't need animation, so we don't put an emphasis, the food is excellent, salmon steaks almost every other day, beef is excellent, turkey is super, I was glad that there is always mashed potatoes, for children, this is a plus, in the mornings donuts just fall off their heads, and these waffles are on the street, it is impossible to pass by, they worried that everything was paid, in vain... In Turkey, premium alcohol is paid in every hotel, but for some reason everyone focuses on this, local gin, whiskey, beer, please pay for Jameson, well, that's understandable! Everything is clean, and there are almost no Russians, but we don't get to know each other there, so the hotel is great, everything is great, the children are happy! Everything is great when you go on vacation, and not to look for flaws!!!! Special thanks to the chefs, everything is at the highest level! Please note, fruits are available 24/7, and not only during meal hours, cherries, plums, watermelon, melon, apples, oranges are just piled up! With small children, there is always something to feed, we only bought juices in the store for malupas.
Have a good rest!
We had a rest from 06/04/24. The hotel is not bad, the food in the restaurant is good, but it seemed monotonous to me. There are a lot of fruits, the sweets are super. Russian Russian is spoken very little by the staff, the vacationers are mostly foreigners, and 3 Russian-speaking families have been met all the time. I think that this is a hotel where everything is not included, only beer and wine are free of alcohol, gin and tonic and whiskey coll are additionally available in the swimming pools and in the lobby, the rest of the drinks are already paid from about 7 euros and above. There are a lot of pools, slides are great, the children are happy. With regard to the beach: it's not far to go, but through the underpass to the embankment where there are many stalls, various entertainment, it's also all paid. The beach in the ocean is sand, but you enter the stones and the further into the sea, the more big stones come across that it is simply not comfortable to swim! We went to the beach from the AQUa there is a sand beach, the sunset is gentle, there are few waves due to the fenced territory of the sea. There are very few people on the beach, the sun beds are always free, which was good))
For children, the mini disco is the same, a small stage where kids hang out around, in my opinion, it is very inconvenient! When the animator called my child to a mini disco , hearing that we were Russians , she just turned away as if she hadn't told us anything. The child has never gone to a disco there is really very boring, there is just something to compare it with! Ice cream is free every day from 12 o'clock, + pizza waffles were prepared near the pools, the queues are of course very large.
Room cleaning every day, but only the floor, dust on the bedside table and chest of drawers did not extend during the entire stay. The plumbing is good, there was a container hanging on the wall in the shower where 2 in one (shampoo and gel) was never replenished, it was empty, somehow!
In general, we enjoyed the sun, slides, the sea and water parks, there are really a lot of them here, which is very cool for children!
But we will not go to this hotel anymore.
A very nice, clean hotel with a huge territory. There are a lot of aqua parks on the territory, there are even large ones for adults with an elevator. Good animation
It's not far to the sea on foot. The hotel has a spa, hairdresser, photographer services, a bunch of boutiques, a burger joint, a pastry shop, ice cream on the beach is free until 13.00. A huge main restaurant. The staff is helpful. A very good ala-card restaurant. They advise. It's really cool to relax with children
Everything is great! Service, food, territory! There are several swimming pools and water parks on the territory of the hotel. There are even more water parks in the beach area. All at no additional cost. Food and drinks on the beach are free of charge. The room has a minibar and a safe for free. The mini-bar is replenished every day. The beach is huge! There are more than enough sun beds under umbrellas and canopies. In May, the sea is already warm - 22-23 degrees.
Excellent rooms, convenient location, good restaurant with a wide selection of dishes. Special thanks to the massage therapists at the spa on the ground floor.
I will not describe this hotel in great detail, but in general it is a very decent concept for a family holiday.There is plenty for children here, and adults have something to do. Lots of pools, pretty tasty food (yes, monotonous, there is such a thing), no seafood. I have no complaints about the service, everything was always very friendly.
The rooms are great. Not killed, big and bright. A separate graduation ceremony is very relevant for families.
The territory is large, but this is if you take into account the island (the common territory of all hotels).
The hotel itself is cramped)
There is almost no place near the pools. But they always found free sunbeds by the sea without any problems.
The beach is cleaned, but vacationers themselves litter right there, although there are tables for glasses and urns everywhere.
There are no complaints about the water park, there is entertainment for everyone. There are practically no extreme slides, everything is more or less suitable for everyone.
The pools are periodically closed in the morning and sometimes not open until the evening. It happened that of all the pools on the territory and on the island, only 1 worked. I do not know what is the reason. But they close quite often. Animation in 1 swimming pool on the island, light.
In general, a normal family-run comfort-class hotel.
Good afternoon, we had a family vacation in June 2024.They settled in quickly, for an additional fee of $ 100 they gave a two-room apartment, the rooms are good.(there are no slippers, hair and body conditioner in the room, only lump soap and a dispenser in the shower). In the minibar : fanta, cola, water.There is a lot of food, squid and seafood cocktail were given once in 10 days. Free Spirits only in the lobby, wine and beer on the beach. The hotel is aimed at foreigners, all animation is in English.
A separate story is the entry into the sea, just terrible, rocks, you can't go in without special shoes. The sea is dirty, some algae and debris were constantly floating. The road to the sea is through a passage in which it does not smell very tasty.The staff is trying their best.A good water park.
A huge family hotel.
The sensations are twofold. Excellent food, a huge territory, a large number of slides for both adults and children, the presence of an "island" common to the Efthalia network, where all the daytime and evening traffic. These are slides and pools and an amusement park, a zipline, a tattoo parlor, a snack bar and a la carte restaurants, an amphitheater and a disco.
But with all this, there are a lot of people)), children. Therefore, it is noisy, it is not always possible to find places by the pool and in the restaurant. Alcohol is stronger than wine for some reason, it is poured only in two locations, pulbar and lobbybar. A strange concept of nutrition. Snacks begin to be served only at 12, although lunch begins at 12-30 in the main restaurant.
Otherwise, the hotel is excellent, I recommend it for a family holiday.
A good hotel was in 2022 in September. According to the package for 10 nights, we took the standard, upon check-in we were offered a family 2-room room for 70 green. We took it and were very pleased with the large one with a sea view.
The hotel is not bad, the food, the rooms are acceptable. There is no alcohol on the beach, drinks are not allowed from the hotel, a guard is sitting and watching. Alcohol is paid on the beach. One big disadvantage is that there are no Russians in the hotel at all. Only the British, remember this, are specific people)
We stayed at the hotel from April 2 to April 8, 2024. It is located in Turkler village.Alanya is about 20km away.They flew to my anniversary. Other relatives did not come from Russia. That's why we chose this hotel. The hotel-I will immediately write that there are no Russians in the hotel. It was just the three of us. We had a standard room. The standards are located in 3-storey houses, they are called bungalows. And here, as luck would have it, what number would be given. Or with a neighbor opposite, you will have a balcony in the balcony or the balcony will look directly at the water park or as we have a view of the wasteland. And we had a side view of the sea, we were lucky. Although upon check-in, we were offered to pay an additional 10 euros per day and be given another room in the main building. We stayed in the one we were given. And when our relatives arrived, they saw their German passports at the reception and immediately the price of the surcharge increased from 10 euros per day to 15 euros. The rooms are big enough, san. the nodes need to be repaired. And if they cleaned at least a little better, it would be tolerable. The granddaughter in socks walked from the door to the balcony and back, everything, at least throw away the socks. And it's like that every time. The floors were simply not washed or smeared with dirt. Mirrors in the room, a glass balcony door, an entrance door and a bathroom door. You've probably never seen a wet rag. The towels are very dilapidated, worn and have turned from white to gray.There are no slippers and it's in a 5* hotel.There is a kettle, cups,tea, coffee,3 in 1 coffee, sugar and cream in bags.Mini bar for free,water without gas,cola,sprite and fanta type.There are no shelves in the closet, only a high top shelf, there is a safe.Our room was not cleaned for 2 days, I went to the reception twice.Sometimes a herd of sheep and goats grazed under the balcony, we counted about 300 heads, maybe more, the territory is not large, there is an underground passage to the sea. If you arrive late or between meals, then walk past the lobby bar and enter the hall where you can have a snack. There are French fries, chicken nuggets, vegetables, cutlets, you can make burgers. There is a coffee machine and cold drinks from the vending machine. Only beer is free of alcohol, white, red and pink wine. And everything. ALL cocktails, alcoholic or non-alcoholic for children are PAID. Alcoholic drinks for 7 euros and children's drinks for 4 and 5 euros. All children's entertainment is paid. In the evening, a children's mini disco. There is no adult animation in the hotel itself. We flew before our relatives and they told us that there is an amphitheater near the beach, there were concert programs for 2-3 hotels in the evening. In the hotel itself, there is no information about this. People are sitting in the hotel in the evening near an empty stage, listening to music and ordering cocktails. That's probably why there is no information about evening animation. Food is always a queue, the first time we fly to Turkey, we stood in line for food. Everything is monotonous, of course you will not go hungry. There is only horse mackerel from fish every day. Desserts, there seem to be quite a lot of them, but you don't know what to take. The fruits were apples, unripe oak pears, quinces and bananas. Swimming pools on site and by the sea without heating. The hotel does not pull at the declared 5* in any way. You can safely give 3*.There are only hotels, a road and private sector houses outside the territory. There are no grocery stores at all. The photo shows the shopping center, but there are no declared store names on the signs. It's just that private clothing stores don't work there on the second floor and only trade a little downstairs. There is a large bazaar next to the hotel on Sundays. You don't need to buy anything right away, such prices are sometimes announced, you need to walk around and maybe you will buy something twice as cheap. I wanted to buy my husband shorts, they said 25 euros, I didn't take it, walked around and then saw that these shorts were piled up in a pile and 8 euros each. If you take the onion by weight there, look at the scales, price and weight yourself. Well, they are very deceiving. The hotel itself has a store for duffel and bags, shoes. In principle, the prices are the same as at the market and in the shop nearby. Yes, pool towels are at the bottom of the SPA, come in and they are given out from the left without cards. Of course, you can also write a lot in detail about various little things, but I think that's enough. I do not recommend going to this hotel for Russians, it is boring. The main contingent is the British and Germans, a few Poles and, as if not to offend people, but there were a lot of blacks. It's up to you to go to this hotel or not. I'm not going anymore.
nice hotel, but there are 2 disadvantages:although the hotel is 1st class, but the ice cream is paid, and there are no interesting events, I flew during Oktoberfest, nothing interesting
Our vacation at the Eftalia Ocean Hotel in October 2023.
The journey from the airport to the hotel took about 2.5 hours, we stopped at 6 hotels, out of the whole big bus, only our family was to this hotel. We arrived late, at about 22 o'clock, immediately checked in (we had an improved standard, with an additional payment of $ 20, we were given a standard with a sea view.
Number:
2 double bed, single bed, armchair-bed, dressing room (very comfortable), safe for free, mini bar (water, cola, fanta) replenished every day. The balcony is large: 2 chairs, a table, a dryer. Shower room: shampoo-shower gel in a dispenser, shower caps, soap, cotton pads, cotton swabs. We cleaned the room well, left a dollar, twisted figures for us every day, the children were very happy.
Food:
We arrived late, so we immediately got acquainted with the burger shop, it is round the clock: burgers, vegetables, pasta, soup, fruit tea, coffee, juices.
The main restaurant's opening hours are a bit strange:
Breakfast 7 to 10
Lunch 12-30 to 14
Dinner from 18 to 20-30
Breakfast: eggs in several types, lots of cheeses, sliced (delicious ham), vegetables, fruits, lots of pastries, including pancakes, sweets (halva, lukum, cookies, waffles, nutella in small packs). For breakfast, you can buy freshly squeezed orange juice price 2 $ / 2€ /55 lira.
Lunch: 3-4 types of meat, pasta, French fries, burgers, lots of salads, 2 types of soups, grilled, vegetables, fruits, pastries, gozleme, lots of European and Turkish sweets.
Dinner: about the same as for lunch.
The restaurant has 2 bars, water, soda, beer, wine (from bottles, dry)
On the territory of the hotel from 12 to 16-30 there is a snack by the pool: potato chips, burgers, Viennese waffles, pasta.
From 12 to 14, the children's club gives free Oreo ice cream in a package.
In the evening, animation, again takes place on the "island".
There are many slides on the territory, swimming pools (cool)
The island of Eftalia:
This is a common area on the beach for 4 hotels, the passage to it is underground. A huge beach area, about a kilometer, there were no problems with sun beds, there are also many water slides for every taste working from 10 to 12 and from 13-30 to 17.
Lifeguards are on duty on the beach.
In this area you can have a full lunch:
Crumbs-potatoes, pasta, several types of meat, vegetables, fruits, sweets, Viennese waffles.
In separate varnishes:
- shawarma in the pit
- grilled wings, french fries
- pizza
- gozleme
There are several bars with drinks, just like in the hotel, but there are also paid cocktails.
Unfortunately, in the concept of the hotel, all cocktails are paid.
There is a visit to the a la carte restaurant for free 1 time in 7 days of arrival. The gastrelation has an entry from 9 to 11, but she does not speak Russian.
A good mini club on the island, two beautiful Nastya girls, thank them very much, the youngest son really liked it.
Shopping:
To the right of the hotel about 5 minutes on foot outlet Neva many brands: Zara, Stradivarius, Bershka, Puma, Adidas, Karl Lagerfeld, etc
On Sunday, the market arrives, it is just in the parking lot behind our hotel.
The nearest pharmacy and shop Migross to the left of us is about 5-7 minutes on foot.
Germans, Englishmen, Poles, and almost no Russians are resting in the hotel. The rest was wonderful, thank God, no one got sick, we will be happy to return to Eftalia, we really liked the hotel. For families with children, this is an ideal place, for the entire period of rest, they have never encountered a negative. You can safely recommend it.
An excellent hotel chain, we rested directly in Eftalia Marine.
The food is 100 out of 100.
Purity 100 out of 100
Animation 50 out of 100
Beautiful well-maintained territory.
The hotel is conditionally on the first line, but to get to the beach and the water park, you need to go through a tunnel under the road.
For families with young children who sleep during the day, I do not recommend taking rooms with sea views, it is very noisy
It was just great, a very large area, a lot of slides and pools, it's just a paradise for children there. The food is varied, among the disadvantages are queues at the restaurant, but if you come later, it's fine. In general, I definitely recommend it.
The hotel is super, I liked everything very much, it's a paradise for children, if you find fault you can find minutes, but if you go there in a good mood you will be cool!
The staff is friendly, the territory is huge, the sea is nearby.
This is the only hotel out of many where I would like to return
We visited the hotel with my family in early June 2023.
We just got back.
There were 8 nights, of which 6 full days.
The hotel consists of 2 buildings connected by a curtain.
There are two swimming pools on site for general use.
We checked in at night, there was a snack bar where you could have a snack from the road.
Upon check-in, we offered to upgrade our standard room (32 sq.m.) to a two-room one for 10 euros/day.
There are also two-storey private rooms where you could also check in at an additional cost - they have a main plus pool directly from the balcony, but there is no sea view.
The buildings are facing the sea and it will be visible from each room, but there are rooms at the end of the building that offer a full view (not a side view), but it's still not close to the sea - it's across the street.
There is an ocean fountain nearby, it is clear that it was conceived in the same way as this hotel, according to the style of the building and common paths, but they are separated by a fence. It is visually larger and there is a water park on site. What else is different, I did not go much deeper, but it is considered higher in level.
The room was cozy and comfortable. The mini bar consists of soda and water.
They did not clean badly, but it was necessary to adjust a lot, sometimes they did not finish cleaning by 3 o'clock.
There is a sauna, hammam, main restaurant and snack bar. There are also individual restaurants available to visit 1 time in 7 days. children's club and evening disco.
Through the underpass there is a common large area of the eftalia island that overlooks the sea.
There are two swimming pools, two large aqua zones for children, a lot of small bars, food distribution points, its own snack bar, an amphitheater with a stage and water slides.
The main caveat is that all this works at certain hours and is not always very convenient. But over time, a regime was built where they visited their favorite points and knew what was working where.
The children's menu is clearly provided, but we did not have it.
The children's playground and the children's bar have not been open since coronavirus stories. There is 1 kids club on the beach and in the hotel.
The beach is sandy but the sea itself is full of rocks. There are small pebbles on the right side, but there is a place with waves that are not very pleasant. It was generally possible to buy. The beach itself is gently sloping, not deep to the buoys. An adult will not go under the water
We were in Turkey for the first time and it is not clear the peculiarity of this hotel or the whole of Turkey, but there was a lot of everything for an additional fee.
2nd lt number card with a deposit. The restaurant has freshly squeezed juice for an additional fee, the entire bar except standard pepsi, one beer and one type of wine for an additional fee. Ice cream is free, but by the hour. At other times, you need to pay. And so it is in everything. All basic needs are closed, but
When relaxing with children, you constantly ask for everything and really want to, and for a 2-minute show with ice cream, you can give 15 dollars for two.
Perhaps this is not exactly a minus, it is unlikely that in other hotels it is all free, here you can get all the service you want without leaving the hotel.
The hotel was cleaned well, the sunbeds were brand new and comfortable.
But in the general area, by the evening, potatoes and empty bottles could be quietly falling on the tile. Not much, but it's noticeable. By morning, everything was cleaned up.
The food in the restaurant is not bad. Fruits, vegetables and various dishes are simple and complex. A lot of Turkish, not very familiar. It was an evening of Turkish cuisine.
we are generally always full.
There are a lot of Germans and British in the hotel. There were Poles, Kazakhs, Ukrainians. Russian percentages are 20-25.
The attitude is friendly everywhere.
A dolphinarium and a marine park are five minutes away.
There is something like a brand store and everything else.
You can get to the city by taxi or bus in 40 minutes. They run every 15 minutes.
In the evenings, there is animation both on the hotel stage and on the beach. There is a nuance that the music plays strongly in the evenings and in the afternoon, and if the windows overlook the inside of the hotel, the music can interfere with sleep. The closed balcony doors didn't help. On the last day, when the departure was at 5 a.m., the music was playing live until 11. Of course I love rock, but I like to sleep more. It makes sense to consider the option of accommodation with windows outside for children or inside for night residents. It's strange that they didn't tell us about it when they checked in.
On Sundays, the bazaar is around the corner from the hotel.
The transfer from the tour operator took 2.5 hours to get there and back. It makes sense to think about the individual. Since it's not more than an hour from the airport. Taking into account the increased flight, the journey from the Moscow Time departure to the hotel room took 9 hours.
I liked everything the food is at the highest level all inclusive the pools are large clean 1st line near the sea the staff and animators are just great thank you all, we kiss and hug, subscribe to our YouTube channel Rostov bloggers
Great hotel. The varied kitchen is open around the clock. Lots of fruits, vegetables, and pastries. The rooms are clean, spacious, and bright. The mini-bar is replenished daily. The cleaning is good if you leave a tip.
There is live music in the lobby in the evenings. There is a lot of entertainment on site. Disco, private water park, gym.
Strangely enough, but in the shops in the basement you can buy really cheaper than in the nearest bazaars. At the same time, they are willing to bargain.
The optimal currency for the calculation is the dollar.
During the pandemic period, too much chlorine is added to the pool, so it is better not to abuse it.
The beach is huge. There is enough space for everyone. You can rent a gazebo
Nice hotel. You can't think of a better place for families with children. Lots of entertainment. Water slides for every taste. Although there are a lot of people in the restaurant, there are always places. The food is at a height. The staff is very helpful. They always help when contacting. The room cleaning is excellent. I recommend it to everyone. The best room options are offered for an additional amount.
Everything is fine. The staff is polite and attentive. Nice hotel. The food was varied: there was meat (chicken of course) and fish. Lots of vegetables, fruits, and pastries. Fairly clean bvssaines. There were enough sun beds. Beautiful, well-maintained private beach. Animation in the morning and evening, both at the hotel and on the beach. The first line, you can find yourself on the beach by going through a tunnel.
A beautiful building. Convenient location. A spacious room. There are water slides for toddlers, teenagers and adults.
There is no children's table at the end of the season. Without jars, babies should be fed only with pasta and cucumbers. At the end of the season, the pools by the sea/children's club are closed.
The hotel has a maximum of 4 stars: ice cream, used cocktails, freshly squeezed juice-for a fee. There are no bathrobes or slippers in the room.
We had a rest with a large family in this hotel from 08/23/2021 to 09/03/2021.in general, we liked the hotel, everything is very decent, the sand on the beach is imported so the water is not very clear, the kitchen, pools, slides, sauna, hammam, salt room, we liked everything. Of the cons: room cleaning for three. Of the advantages, I would like to mention the pool bar with staff, in particular, the bartender Zafir is very positive, unobtrusive, friendly, tried his best for all the guests of the bar... He served both children and adults very quickly with a smile, and was happy to prompt if visitors asked for something (he speaks excellent Russian).
A very nice hotel. The rooms are large and all rooms have sea views. The cuisine is very diverse. Cleanliness is on the level. I clean it regularly. The staff is very polite and friendly. Location on the first coastline, however, to get to the beach and the beach entertainment area, you need to go through an underpass under the road.
it was the first time in Alanya, we used to go to Side. Overall, the hotel is good. Cleaning every day. in the evening there is a program for children, and then for adults. There is a lot of food (you can eat around the clock). It is a paradise for children. 6 swimming pools and 5 water parks. I put a four because of the beach. Very bad seabed (rocks everywhere). On the third day, we found a place where you can swim more or less normally (the landmark is a HUGE boulder on the shore. If you face the sea, then 100 meters to the left of the boulder). There are plenty of sun beds with mattresses.
Bottom line: if you have children, they will be very cool. I warn you that the hotel is not for those who like to drink (beer is free, but non-alcoholic (pleasant to the taste) everything that is stronger is for the money. the glass cost 5-10 euros). Excursions were not taken. There is a bazaar near the hotel. You can go shopping on your own and save extra money.
A new hotel. It was opened in 2017. Rooms, meals, service at the highest level. On the territory there are children's slides with an inverted bucket on the roof, adult slides. A large swimming pool. On the beach there is a swimming pool with a circular current, children's slides with a bucket, a huge complex of large slides. Ice cream, Viennese waffles, wings, hot dogs, water and drinks in bars are free on schedule. It was the second time in 2021. I recommend.
We stayed at this hotel for two weeks from June 21. Well, what can I say, in general, the hotel is not bad, but there are always some PROBLEMS. If you are going on vacation to Turkey for the first time or using the "UAL" system, then you will really like the hotel. But if there is already something to compare it with, then the opinion will be different.
What exactly didn't suit us? That's when the hotel is good, you don't want to leave its territory. I want to do everything and everything. And here we were bored. So much so that we left for Alanya almost every day. There is simply no animation on site. Yes, she is somewhere on the beach. One common to the entire network, and even then every other time. There is animation for children, but I can't say anything: the eldest was bored, the youngest refused to go.
I can only give two stars for the animation.
Food. It's good, you won't stay hungry. And it seems like a lot, but again, BUT. Spaghetti, fries, onion rings are boring. It's the same thing every day. There were mussels and squid once in two weeks. The fish is not very big, with bones. Chicken, beef, turkey have always been there, everything is OK here. There were grapes, watermelons, melons, apples, pears, grapefruits, apricots, plums daily. Soups and salads are for the amateur. I missed our borscht and olivier)
Not enough porridge. Hercules and rice every other day.
Everything is fine with drinks: coffee, tea, and sprite. They didn't take alcohol, I can't tell you here.
Baklava is always + different cakes, pastries, mousses.
There are few types of jams and yogurts, in my opinion.
The territory is also in the definition.It's time to have a hot dog stand.
Ice cream was served on the beach from 12 to 16 - at a time when it is not recommended to go to the beach))
Rooms. Our room was standard. It is quite spacious. New. Daily cleaning service. Refilling the refrigerator with soda too. Towels were changed daily. There are no complaints.
Territory. A small one. There are many pools for both children and adults. Slides too. But the large pool was constantly covered with tape. No matter how we come, it is closed.
There were a lot of faded flowers, uncut trees - apparently, there was no gardener at that time.
Beach. I didn't like it at all. This dark brown coarse sand (we call it Kildyamsky) and huge stones in the sea spoil everything. The beach is common to all hotels in this chain. There is also a water park. There are many pools.
I also didn't like the fact that the territory was not thought out. Or, on the contrary, so specially conceived.
I need to go to the burger joint. But in order to reach it, you need to go up to the second floor, and then just go in. Here I want to go to the sea on the right, closer, but no, the exit is only on the left, and you go through the territory.
I had to walk too much.
And here is the beach across the street - well, sometimes it's too lazy to go there.
Well, that's something like that)
The hotel is large, its territory is very large, but due to the common area with water parks it is very large. There are many water slides. The food is delicious, there is a lot of entertainment.
Good afternoon.
I am giving a review for the Eftalia Ocean 5*/ Eftalia MARINE 5* hotel, KONAKLI, TURKEY.
Why are there two hotels? In principle, this is one hotel, I think one owner, one very well-maintained territory, one wonderful water park with pools.
So. 2 hours from Antalya airport along the coast and you are here.
Upon arrival, they will immediately try to take you into circulation and offer you a hammam and massage (as long as there is money))))). We didn't even resist. It was fun and I quickly recovered from the road. (The airline POBEDA is another treat.)..
Next..... Big new cops, clean rooms, friendly staff. There are no problems at the reception, everything is fast. The area is gorgeous. There is a Russian-speaking staff.
The sea is across the road (underpass). The view from the room window is decent.
Food.
Everything is on the level. Delicious, high-quality. There is a crowd of vacationers, but not critically. The restaurants are spacious, there is enough space for everyone.
In the morning (at about 5 a.m.), prayer is heard from the loudspeakers on the surrounding towers. I liked it very much. It's kind of unusual and interesting.
A traveling market came once. Long canopies were pitched not far from the hotel. My wife and I went there and got a lot of positive emotions. We bought all sorts of little things. Be sure to bargain.... Turks discount up to 70 percent of the initial amount.
Money.
Take small dollars and cards. There were no problems.
I recommend going to Alanya. You can take a taxi. A taxi driver can also take you for a ride around the city, show you the sights. We didn't have any language problems.
The taxi driver (Turkish grandfather) drove us all day, then waited on the beach and safely took us back to the hotel and only then we paid him off. Very sincere people.
In Alanya, be sure to visit the old fortress on the mountain, for the sake of photos. And be sure to go for a swim on Cleopatra Beach. That's something!!!!!
I will not explain, you will understand for yourself.....
Actually, Alanya left me the most pleasant impressions. There are even thoughts of coming there and renting an apartment for a month... A wonderful city...
The hotel organizes various excursions, but we did not go on them, so I can't say anything ...
As a result, I want to say that the hotel left a very favorable impression. The level of service is high. I recommend everyone to visit the above-mentioned hotels. Recreation - beach, swimming pool, water park, all inclusive.
Many thanks to the management of the hotels for their work to ensure our rest.
Thank you all for your attention.
We had a rest in September 2021,the food was normal,we were not hungry,the rooms were clean water and lemonade tea👍👍👍the beach 👍👍👍the territory is well laid out,we were satisfied in the center👍,hello well done guys to all the staff👍💪👍
A hotel with a very large territory. There are many pools, various activities for children and a huge number of them. Clean, well-groomed , delicious. In a word, the hotel is super, there is something to compare it with))). I highly recommend it!!!
We were in September 21. Excellent hotel, entertainment for every taste, delicious food, albeit a little monotonous.We were with the children. It's a paradise for them there. They didn't even need the sea with such a water park)))The staff is polite, they will always help and tell you.
A very nice family-run hotel. We rested three times, the whole family is happy. It was better every time, the beaches and the territory were equipped. It is better to book directly and only by phone, there are promotions at the beginning and end of the season.
We stayed at this hotel in October 2021.
I liked the hotel as a whole, if there were no better options, we would return again.
70% of the hotel staff are foreigners. The staff speaks Russian, but poorly.
We lived in a room with a view of the lobby. I do not recommend it, since there is an amusement park and the music played until 12 at night.
The food is normal without frills. But it was always fresh, the meat changed every day. We didn't go hungry, there was always something to eat. What the staff imposed did not bother us and there was no discomfort.
Sea
As always, it's wonderful. The beach and the promenade through all the hotels are very large. There are a lot of people (by the way, we don't really like this).
There is a separate beach for adults, smokers, non-smokers. Drinks on the beach are not tasty-they are diluted. There are a lot of stalls, but everything there is for money.
The rooms are nice and spacious, they were cleaned, but more often I had to remind them.
The eldest son is allergic for 8 years. And he was very allergic to pillows. The pillows were removed and everything was fine.
We are happy with the rest! Thanks to the staff and the hotel for the rest!
A large number of water slides, its own protected bulk island with its own beach and entertainment, food only for the Eftalia hotel chain. On one side of the beach there are stones, pebbles, on the other side of the beach there is sand.
Good day to everyone. We had a family vacation at this hotel from 10/25.21 to 10/30.21. The ticket was purchased by Eftalia aqwa Ultra all inclusive. Upon arrival at the hotel, they offered to move to Eftalia ocean. How Ocean explained it better. We agreed for $ 140. It turned out that we used two hotels. Cool. Now about the hotel. Standard room 2 adults +1 child. The room has a double bed and a full single bed, not a cot. There is a kettle, a fridge with napkins (free of charge). The bathroom is combined. The glass partition of the shower is leaking. So you need to wash quickly. Otherwise, the water will be in the bathroom. The legs on the cabinet under the sink were covered with rust. There is no air freshener. Towels, it just felt like they were rinsed and hung up. One towel immediately went to the floor. There was a smell. No slippers. There are no dressing gowns. It takes a lot of effort to close the door to the balcony. The room was poorly cleaned. They gave a dollar, cleaned well and brought warm blankets. There are carpets in the hallway, but they are vacuumed once a week. There are very few antiseptics, but masks are available at the reception. The cooking is not bad. There is a variety. Every day there is a different kitchen. Breakfast doesn't count. There is a swimming pool and slides on site. It pleased me. There is plenty of space for children. The beach is not much dirty. They probably don't clean it up. There are enough sun beds. There is a beach shower, a volleyball court. There is a bar with drinks and food within walking distance. Nearby there is entertainment on the water. There's not much to do in the evening. There is no entertainment room in the hotel itself. We have to walk 500m. We went once. It's not interesting. Not a single word in Russian. In general, they left after 15 minutes. The rest of the days we went to Aqwa. Animators work there. Cocktails are mixed in bars for money. We decided to go on a shopping tour. They took it for free. To the leather and fur store. We decided to buy a men's leather jacket. They bargain, but not willingly. They look at you from above as if you owe them (a conversation with the store director). On the penultimate day, we decided to go to Konakli ourselves. We came across a leather store. We came in and were shocked. It turned out to be a very expensive store. But they treated us very well there. We made a decent discount and paid in rubles. Very nice staff (I recommend it because they bought it for the amount they expected).
In general, we are satisfied with the rest. But I would put no more than 4rubles for the hotel. (There is something to compare it with).
P.S. this review is my personal opinion and my view of the situation. There is no advertising or anti-advertising.
The advantage of the hotel is only the coastal area with pools and slides.
We were at the end of the season already and from November 5 everything that was by the sea was closed, although before buying the tour we called the hotel and asked if they would work
And further on the cons:
1. When fully filled, the queues at restaurants are incredible. The food is a C-minus. The worst five of those where we were in Turkey. There's even a queue for scrambled eggs in the morning.
2. Self-service, not even water will be brought at dinner. The wines are disgusting. There is only wine and beer at the beach bars, everything else, even local spirits, is paid.
3. There is no sound insulation.
4. Entrance to the sea-there are places where there is sand. But we have to look for a lot of stones
5. There is no cleaning in the rooms
6. The first prize - I will honor him with a separate point. If you are flying from Tui, then there is a chance that he will be a guide. In no case do not listen to what he says and do not buy tours from him. He puts noodles on your ears, he'll fool you, and then he'll twist everything so that you'll remain guilty.
A large territory, excellent slides, and on the beach they are even bigger and higher, they were in a two-room room. The sound insulation in the rooms is poor. The entrance to the sea is also bad. The sea is muddy. The food is varied, there are not enough fruits, watermelon and apples with pears.
We booked a hotel for three people, the check-in date was supposed to take place on August 12
The tour operator first announced to us that we need to pay an additional 250 euros per person for the flight, although according to the contract the flight was included in the tour, then it's better))) the operator announced to us that our booking was canceled by this particular hotel and instead of 1800 euros, we were offered to rebook the tour for 4500 euros. We booked the hotel in advance in November and made an advance payment to the tour operator. Of course, I understand that the hotel is not bad, but as the hotel administration does, it smells like something bad. We are completely disappointed.
The best hotel and there are many pools and the sea is just around the corner, in the evening all sorts of fun programs take place on the beach, the food is very tasty 🤤👍 I recommend 👍👍👍
All that was missing was a gym, otherwise everything is fine! The food is delicious and varied. A very large Area. There is a very cool outlet right next to it - I advise you to take a look
A wonderful hotel, we had a rest at the end of October and the beginning of November. The weather is beautiful, the sea is lovely.I was very pleasantly surprised by the sandy beach, a huge number of slides, the children appreciated it. The food is varied, the hotel is huge. Our family was satisfied)))
