The best place to relax with children, the entry into the sea is pleasant, there are no big waves. The rooms are gorgeous, there are pools everywhere, we also liked the autumn water park.
The hotel is not bad, but there are a lot of disadvantages.
Firstly, it was noticed that the attitude of the staff towards Russians is worse than towards citizens of other countries.
According to the diet for 4, there was always turkey, lamb, or beef meat. Fish is quite common. But the big minus is that there is nothing to eat from 16 to 19.00. (dinner).
It's terrible for alcohol. There is no imported alcohol. Cocktails are all sugary of the same taste. In general, I drank beer. Coffee is disgusting everywhere, only in a paid cafe it is probably normal.
Now by number. They settled in building D. The location is not bad, but the room is just dead. Obviously, it does not pull at 4 *. The furniture is old, the plumbing is dead (the toilet flowed, the button on the tank constantly stuck), the door on the balcony did not lock with a key (the lock is broken), 1st floor. It's full of ants. By the way, friends also had plumbing leaks, they were eventually moved to a similar room. We asked to change the room, but it was useless, they offered it in the building next to it, there is a balcony with access to the night disco, they refused.
The territory is large, the beach is small, the entrance is good for children. There are no waves, as this is a bay.
Animation for two: it's the same thing in the evening, it's boring. From sports games volleyball, darts -15 min , there is nothing else, the animators can not explain anything, they speak Russian poorly For children, a water park and a children's room.
By the way, a good cap was stolen from our child there. They force them to leave shoes and caps at the entrance to the nursery, and, as it turned out later, no one is responsible for things there. They refused to view the surveillance cameras, saying that the cap was not a valuable thing. THAT'S IT! Turkish service!
There are a lot of people in the hotel.
Cleaning the room is also very bad! The floors were poorly washed, soap accessories were never reported from the check-in. The mini bar was also replenished with water every other time, generally not level 4 * that's for sure.
I do not recommend this hotel!
I liked everything except the food, well, I can't eat their food, a lot of spices, for an amateur

From the good: clean sandy beach, clean water without debris. A large area- do not stay too long. There are many pools and good water slides. And of course Turkey ...)))
Well, now on... The 4* hotel is combined with another 5* hotel, they accommodate about 5,000 people (according to the guide). A large human anthill... there are constantly not enough sun beds, a queue for slides. Children's animators... they are simply not visible, apparently hiding). Room cleaning is EXTREMELY irregular and unclean (extremely in our building. Food...IT'S SATISFYING. At breakfast, slightly named evening dishes are easily recognized) the food is quite monotonous. 99% of salads are stuffed with onions, apparently for certain purposes. The choice of alcohol is not wide (free). I was very "pleased" with the FREE minibar))), which costs 3 non-carbonated waters of 0.33 liters and 3 carbonated ones of 0.25 liters. Again, it was replenished almost always by themselves from the cafe. I will omit other nuances, both good and not so good. I will exhale, and I will say PERSONALLY I AM DISAPPOINTED. There is something to compare with, and then think for yourself
4 stars - the level of 3 stars. The food is not delicious, there is a lot of it, but it is not tasty. Fruits - peaches, nectarines, melons are not ripe. There are few fish dishes, they are cooked ugly, sometimes right with scales, wildly fried, trout can be gnawed. There are no yoghurts and other fermented milk, cheeses - 2 types The cleanliness in the rooms is average. Towels are not changed until you ask. The beach is crowded (at the end of October), there are not enough sunbeds. The pools are no longer heated at this time, the water is icy. The guides are arrogant, and if you don't buy an excursion from them, they are also evil))) In general, 👎
We stayed at this hotel very much in 2020. Large well-maintained territory. There is a lot of entertainment for children, in the form of various slides, slot machines, attractions, as the hotel is more designed for families with children. The food is good, although not quite a variety of fruits, and even then they can be said to have been given out piece by piece, the pandemic is affecting. For lovers of shopping, there is something and where to buy, as there are many outlets nearby, with different types of goods ranging from sweets to textiles. The rooms in the hotels are comfortable, there are toiletries. The rooms are cleaned every day. The animation was not bad both for milking children and for adults. For which I gave the hotel 4, not 5, this is for a small beach, for such a large hotel. Although the beach itself is good, the sand and the entry into the sea is smooth. But the fact that vacationers on this beach practically lie on top of each other like seals, sorry for the comparisons, it spoils everything. And there just weren't enough sunbeds if you didn't go in the morning and take a seat, although you shouldn't do that. A plaid towel can be changed every day, it's very good. I can recommend the hotel, but there is one problem with the beach, perhaps the management will do something in the future, I would really like to.
At first glance, everything is OK, but there are a lot of people, especially children. Everything is made for children, a lot of entertainment, etc. Alcohol is free, but of poor quality, everything is Turkish. The food is normal, but it will get boring quickly. The room was not well maintained, 4 stars in Russia and Turkey like heaven and earth. The beach is normal, but there are too many sunbeds and people.
I was out of breath in June. Excellent restaurant, large territory. Of the cons, after 6-30 there are practically no free sun loungers, either by the sea or by the pool. Tourists take sun loungers in advance, leaving a half-moon, and leave for half a day. The majority of people with kids...suitable for family holidays. There are a lot of shops nearby, you can go without taking a lot of things, everything for a beach holiday can be bought at a supermarket.
I was very disappointed in the hotel. I just got back from the hotel today. I stayed at this hotel for the third time. For the first time I was just in love with the hotel and recommended it to a lot of people. It was a really good hotel. Now only the sea is good. A lot of buildings were built, but the territory and the beach remained the same. On the beach, the sun beds are pressed against each other, to get to the sea you have to overcome many obstacles, there are no tables at all, umbrellas and mattresses on the sun beds are dirty and torn. They have done all 5 buildings and are trying to settle somewhere worse and prove that either is useless. The food was generally good, but somehow not varied, but the alcohol, it totally sucks. I don't know about strong drinks, I haven't tried them, but everything else is just terrible. It is impossible to drink all liqueurs, just sweet water tinted with some kind of chemistry. Even the beer is the cheapest. There has never been ice cream at all and it is ultra all inclusive. I don 't want to talk about cleaning at all . They don't clean at all. For nine days, the bed linen has never been changed, the towels on the beach are all stained. There was an impression that only money was important to them, but how we rest is a completely different story. The child had a birthday, ordered two figures and sprinkled the table with flower petals, took $ 25 for it, and then another $ 10 for the cake. It's such a divorce. You just can't explain it to a child. So before you go to this hotel, think carefully.
A great hotel: the territory, the landscape, the sea and the beach, and the staff (especially Venus from the reception, thank you for your responsiveness), and cleaning in the rooms and on the territory, and especially the food, delicious and varied.Animation is also good, entertainment for every taste, but it is not taken into account that mostly Russians rested, and the animators knew a minimum of Russian, and from this the quality of entertainment was lower than, say, in Raimore, where the main animator is a real polyglot.and he knows Russian like a native.But in general, Lonicera is a big hotel, but everything is organized very clearly, the staff works conscientiously, great fellows, the price and quality correspond, we want to see you again.Thanks
The hotel has become not very comfortable. There are a lot of people, there are not enough sunbeds. It is necessary to occupy places on the beach and by the pool from 6-7 in the morning. The food corresponds to 4. It has become dirty both at the pools and in the rooms, towels are not always changed.
There are disadvantages everywhere, but the advantages cover everything. And only the rudeness of the guides cannot be blocked, just do not go to them!
The vacationer's notes are here
1) at 7 a.m. there are almost no free sun beds by the pool and on the beach ((but do not worry until the roosters get up at 6 a.m. and run to throw a towel, remember the route (we went to the beach-go right- we pass the beach of another hotel and rest against the rental of aqua entertainment - behind him Lonicera bought another territory and there is always 20 free sunbeds from morning to night ) have a beer for me). There, unlike the central beach, there are few stones, but the water is much cleaner ( you can compare )
2) it turns out that there are fish here ( and if there are wounds on the legs that will bite, buy a moisture-resistant patch and the problem is solved ( leave the reception for the territory then turn left and there will be a pharmacy right) 10 dollars 5 patches so it's better to buy at home )
3) they have a cocktail menu at the bar, but this is not the whole range, you can order tequila rum or raki, it tastes like sambuca inserts well.
4) in the beach restaurant, it is located on the left in the corner of the territory behind the water park, they give bottled beer ,
5) for breakfast, lunch and dinner, come to the opening to choose a good place and take food without jostling. After the people pile up decently, queues arise
6) it is better not to go to a meeting with a guide) for 40 minutes he tells all sorts of unnecessary information and sells vouchers. The guides sit at the TV bar and there you can bargain for excursions and exchange currency with them.Although I looked at the prices for the same excursions on the Internet, the price is much lower.
7) there is a market near the hotel where half of them accept online transfers from Tinkov's savings account and so on.
8) every day in the mini club for children, where the child was handed over at 15:30 themed parties) at 20:30, a mini disco for children begins on the stage) at the end, who was one of the children in the mini club and paid $ 11, they call on the stage and give a gift (bags that the children decorated and the boys a sword made of Balls and a flower for the girls )
9) at the entrance to the lonicera world building In which the main dining room there is a transport that took you on arrival with luggage, so you can use it) tell the staff to take you to the water park or the main reception, for example, and voila)
10) they sell corn and strawberries on the beach for $ 2 (delicious)
11) if you take something in aqua entertainment, take a couple at once, they make a good discount.
12) the staff is friendly and understands everything in Russian. Reviews that write that the attitude towards Russians is bad does not correspond to reality.
13) come to the water park 15 minutes before the opening, there will be free sun beds.
14) from 00:00, a night snack is open. This is a snack bar to the left of the stage, but there is not much food there.
I hope I helped you at least a little) I recommend the hotel. Have a nice rest. I attached a photo of the pool at 6:45)
The hotel is too big. The sea is beautiful, the entrance to the sea is fine sand. I didn't like the beach itself. There are a lot of people, compared to Lonicera Premium, it's just a mess. The territory of the hotel is very suitable for families with children. Crowds on the territory, by the pool, on the beach, in the restaurant are not conducive to a quiet holiday.

A great hotel, we relax here every year and there is no desire to change the place of our permanent vacation!
The food is just SUPER, BEYOND PRAISE!
The water park is also just a fountain of emotions and impressions!
The territory is huge, there are many bars and restaurants on it. There is bottled beer, there is ice cream, there are shawarma, there is a vitamin bar where you can squeeze fresh natural juice from an orange yourself - there is also.
In a word, WE RECOMMEND IT! YOU WON'T REGRET IT.
P.s. although the room stock in the rooms is a bit old. But, we do not go to sit in rooms, but to spend time near the sea or the pool...
The hotel positions itself as a hotel on the first line, but building G, which is now inhabited only by Russian speakers, is located in the middle of nowhere. We need to cross the road. The view from the room towards the sea is attached.
The hotel is for one time, I do not understand the people who come here again.
The hotel is good, the staff is kind, the food is generally chic, the entrance to the sea is ideal, but the beach itself is narrow and there are a lot of people. The fast food zone is also good for its variety!!! I liked pizzas there.
A wonderful hotel, very customer-oriented.The staff will always help, everything is clean.The reception tries to take into account the wishes of the guests upon check-in
We arrived at the hotel at 7 a.m., the room had already begun to cook, went to eat and enjoy the sea, we were told to come at 10, came around 11 and immediately gave us the keys, by the way, I wrote to the chat, the request was for a certain block, they gave it, the view from the room is cool, next to our garden with sun beds, swimming pool and access to the sea, there is not a large dining room, but all the main dishes are there, a bar, an open-air disco is not far away, we slept with air conditioning, so nothing interfered! The cleaning is excellent, tips were left, the food is great, 4 types of fish, seafood, meat is everything except pork, especially lamb came in, everything is in different versions, the highest score for desserts, I don't really eat sweets, but even I appreciated it! The territory is huge, we alternated between our beach and premium beach, went to watch crabs and crawl in coves. The water park is great, but you need to keep an eye on the children, although sometimes you need to keep an eye on the adults on the children's slides! The territory of the food store is meticulously maintained! Every day is a show program! We did not find any disadvantages, we do not even want to relax in other hotels of the same price category, we will come here! Many thanks to all the staff, excellent! By the way, there is also a lot of entertainment, but my daughter and I only went to the zumba, we didn't have time to go anywhere else))) I've been to Turkey 5 times, I've never vacationed in 4 stars, but it's much better than most 5!!!!
good food, great rooms, a large territory and a great beach.... but in the room all the time the manger is hammering from the pool (and the hotel is around the pool..)and you won't be able to sleep during the day. the reception does not respond to requests to turn off the music during the day...(
This part of the hotel consists of buildings before their renovation. In general, the rooms are clean and small. Some rooms have sea views. The standard room provides accommodation, including with a child. The food is varied, delicious and fresh dishes. Round-the-clock snacks and drinks. The excellent location of the hotel on the beach and a huge territory.
The hotel has exceeded all expectations!!! A paradise for children! There's nothing to find fault with, except that the Wi-Fi is sooo bad. If you need to work, you will need to sit in the room ... on a sunbed near the pool and in general you will not be able to do this throughout the territory (we went to the room so as not to get on our nerves). I recommend the hotel to couples with children
Great hotel, 5 out of 5 food, everything was there, very fresh hotel, everything was there.We will definitely come again.Probably the best hotel I've been to.
