I had a rest for the first time this year in early July at this boarding house.
Protected area, excellent location, sea and forest are nearby at the same time👍
Very attentive staff, good dining room, excursions are very affordable, the room is cleaned daily.
Thank you to the management of the boarding house for the comfort provided and I wish you only prosperity in the future!!!!👏👏👏
I would also like to mention the professional work of Mikhail Nikolaevich Chernov, a massage therapist. Bravo! He does a great massage, gives useful recommendations on physical activity and diet. My body was restored, even within 3 days! Super!
I recommend visiting it to all vacationers, get a real pleasure!🤝🙌
A great place to relax. Huge sandy beach. The pension is located on the territory of the reserve. The air and sea here are simply amazing. The food is a decent buffet three times. There are two cafes and a children's room. Indoor heated swimming pool. I had a rest here in May and October. Only the best impressions. Seven days and the body has improved. I recommend kio to everyone who is looking for a quiet and secluded vacation.
We had a rest at the boarding house in August. We arrived for the first time. This is not the first time in Abkhazia, so they did not set high demands. A wonderful place! Nature, territory, clean sea and beach, all of the above leaves a pleasant impression! We were going to a secluded corner, we chose this one, so we enjoyed it, and we mostly met people only at the restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner! On the beach, they went further away from the main beach. For those who wanted to have fun, there was also exercises on the beach and volleyball and a movie in the evenings. The room had a balcony overlooking the sea, a room without air conditioning (it seems that there are such, we need to clarify when booking), we took a fan, but we never used it, fell asleep and woke up to the sound of the surf! It's just an incredible feeling! Loud neighbors on the balcony were a little annoying, people just didn't care that we weren't very interested in listening to their lives every day. The rooms are clean, cleaned once, but the towels have never been changed. I probably should have asked the maid about it, but the garbage was regularly cleaned and toilet paper was constantly put in, by the last day 3 rolls had accumulated.. There is a refrigerator and a TV in the room. The kettle is one for the corridor. We woke up early, took him to the room, boiled water (enjoyed morning coffee on the balcony overlooking the sea). If they knew, they would have taken a small one of their own. About the food: we took 3 meals a day. I personally had a lot of this - breakfast and dinner would have been enough. The food was good. You definitely won't leave hungry. There have always been pastries, vegetables and meat. We took excursions. Guide Almazkhan, a wonderful storyteller! Thank him very much for his work! We went to Sukhum, Gagra (to the market-500 rubles per person), We went to Pitsunda ourselves, you can always negotiate with a driver who takes people to Gagra to the market. We took advantage of the transfer from Mussera to Adler, everything is perfectly organized. The goodwill of the locals conquered. For fruits (and it was the fig season, we probably tried all the varieties!) we went to the barrier, where the locals sell fruits, not expensive and ripe. They also collected water at the barrier if they did not have time to buy it at a shop on the beach. There, in the shop, you could buy what vacationers want and beer and ice cream and water and much more. We would like to come here again - absolutely yes! It can be seen that the boarding house is being renovated little by little. It would not be bad to improve the beach area, of course there is some desolation. There are not enough sun beds and umbrellas for everyone, and many sun beds are already broken in the middle, they need to be updated, I don't think it's expensive. And the beach itself is sand. After all, it is not difficult to level it and clean up the garbage (although to be honest, there was little household garbage, mostly needles, foliage, twigs.
We had a rest from 3-11.06.24, the weather is wonderful! We liked everything! We went to the sea, the sun, to positive emotions, and got everything in full. The nature is amazing, the sea is clean, the staff is friendly. Everything was fine with the food, we went to the Gagra market, bought berries and fruits to suit our taste, and everything was in order. We went on an excursion to the Ritz-I recommend it! Dolphins swam nearby-we were happy as children. Many vacationers have been coming here for years! We will join these ranks 😊this is the only place during all our travels where we want to return and we will definitely come!
A fairy tale! A heavenly place! Silence, beauty, crystal air, exoticism, dolphins, snakes sunbathing on the beach next to vacationers or swimming in the sea, caught there from a mountain river. Remoteness from civilization, lack of regular transport links, the remains of the Soviet library are freely available, entertainment for everyone, mountains, long walks along the beach 6 km on foot or by sea to the wild peninsula of friendly tourists living in tents by savages near a mountain stream, magnificent amazing nature, unusual subtropical plants and traces of ancient fossilized fossils on the collapses of the shores by the sea or the remains of buildings of the Soviet period, dilapidated by the winds and time. Nearby is the leaders' cottage in a pitiful state with a magnificent park and a sculpture of a centaur. Impressive! An open restaurant on the 13th floor with a wonderful kitchen and a view of the sea, the sky! Complete delight! You'll come one day and you'll definitely come back again. A Soviet-built boarding house, the renovation is the same, the rooms are modest with a magnificent view of the sea or without a view, to the mountains or the mountain, as you are lucky.
We rested for 14 days in August-September 2025. the standard room is superior with her husband and grandson, the daughter with her husband and youngest child is in a standard room. Gorgeous sea, air, and normal food are among the advantages. The rest of everything for that kind of money is only one: I have an air conditioner in my room, but the neighbors came at 2 a.m. and asked me to turn it off because it just growled and the neighbors couldn't sleep, and in the room it constantly made clicking sounds, of course we felt sorry for people and tried not to turn it on, which of course affected our well-being. Only the garbage was cleaned in the room and the linen was changed, the carpets in the room were not vacuumed once, they explained the lack of a vacuum cleaner (why then cover the floor with carpet?), the rooms are very shabby and tiny. The daughter's standard is just a horror, a dirty bathroom and a toilet of the 50s, a terrible dirty unwashed parquet, the absence of a condenser, a broken fan. My daughter's loggia was polluted with bird shit in a pile of 20 cm, although a bucket of shit was scraped off the railing of the loggia. The daughter first washed the bathroom with bleach, only after that she was able to wash a 2-year-old child in the shower. I was terribly upset, because I invited her to these protected areas and she came from the Far North. There was not a single sunbed on the beach, all were broken, and completely along the entire length, so that they could only be used by shooting in several layers with something. For such a large number of vacationers in a boarding house on the beach, there is a very tiny canopy, elderly people just lay on top of each other. My husband and grandson and I have paid 175 thousand rubles for this outrage for 12 years. The only sound in the boarding house was how the residents were looking for cleaners. Everything was decent and clean in the dining room, the dishes were cleaned, the finishing dishes were brought, it was felt that there was a head in the dining room who managed to organize the work. Otherwise, the vacationers were left to themselves. I don't know how the director of the boarding house is not ashamed of all this outrage ((((
An excellent boarding house for families with children and for people of mature age. The food is wonderful. Beautiful beach, sea, beach restaurant, cafe. They take you on excursions. Stalin and Gorbachev's dacha is within walking distance. The staff is very helpful.
I had a chance to celebrate my birthday here. It turned out to be very emotional.
From the outside, the building looks like some kind of ghetto. 😀
The territory is well maintained, the beach is quite decent, with sun beds.
The interior is freshly renovated, but the Soviet heritage is visible at every step.
In general, we did not rest in this boarding house, we lived nearby, one and a half kilometers away, in glamping.
We were a couple of times in the dining room of the boarding house, on the 13th floor. I would like to share my impressions about her.
Friendly staff. One, a very tall Abkhazian girl, at first seemed a little rude to us, but then she even began to smile.)
In general, those who rest in the boarding house visit the dining room with special bracelets, for them meals are included in the accommodation. For newcomers such as us, the entrance is 700/person for lunch and 600/person for breakfast or dinner. I think it's inexpensive, considering that there is a buffet in the dining room, i.e. you collect food on the table, as much as you are not ashamed of. 😅
However, before entering the dining room, it is necessary to hand over all hand luggage to the storage room, and it is strictly forbidden to take out any products from the dining room, even there seems to be a fine for this.
With regard to food, the choice is quite decent, especially if you come to the beginning of breakfast, lunch or dinner (yes, they have them on a certain schedule, as in any other hotel where everything is included).
The food is delicious, so you can safely overeat to exhaustion. 😀
A great boarding house.
Views!!!!
Silence, Nature , sea.We got the Worst room (710a)Not a big one.But acceptable.
New renovation,Comfortable beds.
Good nutrition.
Spacious high-speed elevators.
Cinema hall.
Swimming pool, sauna.
There is a transfer service.
A great opportunity to walk along the path admiring the beautiful trees.
Next to the cottage of R.M.Gorbacheva
and the cottage of I.V. Stalin
It's a long way to the nearest village.
The nearest cities are Pitsunda and Gudauta.
You can't walk)))
I need a car.
There is a shop and two cafes on the beach
I didn't want to go anywhere
After all, there is relaxation!!!!
A wonderful place:the sea is warm, pine trees, sandy shore. I want to appeal to the administration of the boarding house: allow the fruit trade on the territory, it is very far on foot (after all, not everyone came by car) to go. Not everyone's health allows them to walk in such heat. And I want fruit, because we are going here for the sea, the sun and fruits. In the store, which is located on the beach, there is nothing else from fruits except melons.
Great location, great location, mountains around and pristine nature. The sea is crystal clear. The rooms are not all renovated, but they are slowly being brought to mind. The location does not compensate for all the disadvantages. Super, I definitely recommend it
Wonderful vacation! I would especially like to thank animator Sergey! We managed not only to relax, but also to gain strength and positive energy! It was 5 years ago, there was no animation at all...The vacationers were left to their own devices... But this year everything was at the right level! Thanks to the management for the excellent cuisine, friendly staff and excellent animation! I will recommend everything!))))
A good boarding house, located far from the noise and so-so civilization from which rest is necessary. The beach is good, they clean it, there are not so many people to get tired, just in the morning in the dining room at the opening hour and peak season ..) The food is decent, there is an assortment. Of course, the rooms are mostly old stock, but if you take from 1 cat. As for repairs only, it is quite possible, there are improved ones that are more expensive but also with euro repairs already. Next to the cottage of Gorbach and Stalin, if by car they will take off 400 rubles. With a person, you can go around the beach, secret entrance and take a walk in the park. There is a cafe there, the prices of course correspond to the monopolists, but by the sea ..). From the highway to the boarding house 11 km along a serpentine narrow-gauge railway, there is Parking, it seems for those who drive, there is enough, there is a transfer. The Internet in the rooms does not take everywhere, in the hallway yes, in the lobby is excellent
A wonderful boarding house, being renovated and improved. The location is great for relaxation: silence, relaxation. The diet is correct and balanced. The beach is cleaned, cleaned every day, there are more than enough sun beds.
A good boarding house, we have been vacationing with my wife for more than one year, for the fifth time! A quiet, peaceful and pleasant place to relax from the hustle and bustle of the city. The nature is simply amazing, the sea is clear, without storms, because this is the Pitsunda Bay, its opposite end, opposite Pitsunda. In the middle of a huge mountain-forest Pitsundo-Musser Reserve, on the very shore of the sea, there is only one of Stalin's former dachas nearby (which later became Raisa Gorbacheva's dacha). Very calm and by Abkhazian standards, a fairly well-equipped place. In Pitsunda, almost all hotels are in a dilapidated state, and here more or less decent repairs. For an unpretentious luxury, and not tempted by elite hotels, a Spartan tourist and a quiet family holiday. All the lack of service is compensated by the magnificent nature around. They are fed three times a day on the principle of a Buffet, quite decently, not a Michelin restaurant, of course, but at the level of a good dining room with a good selection of dishes, although not very large, but changing every day. The veranda of the dining room, which is in the photo, is now covered, under a canopy, and it is not easy to find a free table on it. The boarding house is 14-storey, right on the seashore, the descent to the beach by elevator takes a couple of minutes from the exit from the lobby. There is a cafe on the beach and a restaurant on the second floor. The Penguin Cafe is worthy of a separate description, a very pleasant and not too expensive place. I liked the restaurant a little less and it will be more expensive, but it works around the clock and there are first courses there. In general, if you are tired of eating in the dining room included in the price, you can shoo and eat in a cafe or restaurant for money. Only the guests of the boarding house are on the beach, since there is not a single residential settlement nearby. This is also a minus, if you need to buy something in the city, then it's a whole trip as an excursion, or by taxi, at least 500 rubles per person. There is a medical center at the boarding house, but there are not very many medicines in it, it is better to take everything you need with you in advance. It is not safe to walk around the territory late in the evening, or too early in the morning, far from the boarding house, there are wild animals, for example jackals, although they are cowardly, but if you are alone, and there are several of them, they can attack. I met them once in the evening, there were at least three of them, it was heard from three sides around, and there were four of us, so they only came close, but did not dare to attack, and we quickly retreated towards the boarding house building. Caution should also be observed with plants, there are many poisonous ones, but there are also thickets of wild blackberries, the main thing is not to confuse what you can eat, and it's better not to risk at all. On the adjacent territory of Stalin's dacha, they are allowed only with an excursion for money, there is a magnificent landscape park of huge proportions. The old buildings of Stalin's dacha with service buildings and the luxurious structure of Gorbachev's dacha, with a huge five-story chandelier inside and other luxury elements, compared to them, Stalin's dacha is just a modest house. I recommend a boarding house for a quiet family holiday, not too demanding tourists to the service. It is better to order strongly in advance, because the seats are disassembled very quickly. For example, we have been booking seats for August since November! It will also be cheaper in advance. There are transfer services, the prices are average in Abkhazia. The Kingdom of heaven to Alik Vladimirovich, and health to his son Almaskhan, as the best guides of Abkhazia in those places. There are different excursions in the boarding house, not cheap of course, but if with Almaskhan the guide (it's a pity that his father is no longer there), then these excursions will be very interesting. Have a good rest in Abkhazia for everyone.
The nature is magnificent, the sea is just super.Single room for 3. There is no air conditioning. The food is for 3, last year it was for 4. This year it is varied, not tasty, and even harmful. The maids and staff in the dining room are 4 and 5, respectively. The sun beds are broken, there are not enough umbrellas. In general, there is something to improve
The location is great! In the center of the reserve. The purest sea and air. The nature is fabulous. But the hotel's infrastructure leaves much to be desired, even by the standards of Abkhazia.
The beach is great, the dining room works without interruption, and as for the staff, you can safely put 1 for this, no one knows anything, you need to go and ask to clean up the room, for a child of 3 years old they charge 1200 a day for meals, but my child probably ate 1200 there in a week(((, there are very few excursions (but the guides are good, it was very interesting with them). There is only one store next to the boarding house in which you can say there is nothing (((, there is nothing to take with you even on the road. I am very unhappy with my vacation. I'm not going there anymore.
Boarding house - hello 80e! It is located far from the highway in the nature reserve. The nature is gorgeous, the sea is clean, the view from the balcony is very beautiful to the sea. The food is tolerable, but the products are cheap, many things are simply tasteless, there is not enough fruit and good coffee. Otherwise, you won't be hungry, you can still eat on the outdoor veranda overlooking the sea.
The rooms are old, dirty, the tiles are still from the Soviet Union. The service is poor - the maids do not clean well, dust and garbage are everywhere, but garbage is taken out every day.
The beach is nice, but our people are pigs - they occupy sun beds under umbrellas for the entire duration of their stay, although the administration prohibits this and has posted an appropriate ad.
There are 2 cafes on the beach, the service is weak, but the food is delicious.
There is an indoor swimming pool, almost always empty, a gym with balls.
The contingent is mostly 50+, the young will be bored.
We were a family with a small child.
Excellent location, if you are relaxing in your car, 15 km to the highway, to the nearest settlement, even further. Clean sea, pristine nature, fresh air. The room was decent. The food sucks, it's not possible to eat it. Cooks on soap. The staff does not try to get rid of the word at all!!!
The nature and the sea are gorgeous, but the boarding house itself requires repair and preferably major repairs. Rooms from the time of the USSR. At the same time, there are no places in the boarding house. The food is a buffet, there is no better way to say an Abkhazian table. If you don't dwell on it, then this is paradise. It is not for nothing that Raisa Maksimovna built a cottage for Gorbachev M. S. Nearby is Stalin's cottage and all this in the Musser Reserve.
I rested at the Musser boarding house from 05.27 to 8.06 I liked everything very much, the nature is magnificent, polite staff, delicious food, a beautiful pool, the sea is nearby and very clean, I especially want to note the work of animator Lydia, she worked with children and adults all day, in the morning she did exercises-dancing, there was aqua aerobics in the pool, they danced zumba, and what fun discos they had in the evenings, thank you very much to Lydia, I will definitely return to this boarding house again. And I also want to thank all the staff, thank you very much, I wish you prosperity and good vacationers. I recommend everyone to go on vacation to the Musser boarding house.
We rested from 19.09.5 days.
The road to the boarding house is fascinating. Greenery, sharp turns ...
that's the boarding house, located in a gorgeous place. The receptionist Olga met us, a very nice girl, and we were lucky, they gave us a room with a sea view. It's worth it, the view from the room is wonderful! This is love!
The room stock was upset in the first minutes of check-in, and then it was not up to it. The bed is clean, there is water)
And the dining room is a separate topic. Everything is delicious, there are so many halls, and everything is neat and clean. And eating on the terrace overlooking the sea from the 13th floor is fire!!!
The beach is sooo nice. There are few people, quiet and beautiful. There is a cafe and a restaurant.
I liked both there and there. Thanks to Angela and Gama for the delicious dinners)
And the most delicious boats in Penguin!
Special thanks to the driver Ruslan! You're the best!
Cons: boring. The contingent is retired, expensive.
Who wants silence, beauty and just the sea, then you are here!
If it was possible to put a minus, then this is definitely a Musser (we went to the room for 23 thousand for a family of 4).
At the reception, the receptionist is very "tired", it seems that vacationers are interfering with her.
There is no territory in the boarding house - it is a concrete shabby building and a / road around the boarding house. There are no eco-routes in the park, there is nowhere to walk, only roads (concrete). Nature is beautiful, but it builds almost everywhere. garbage.
The playground is old and broken.
There are not enough sun beds, umbrellas/canopies. They are occupied from the very morning or even leave towels at night (The administration says that vacationers should sort it out themselves). No one is watching the sunbeds, some of the sunbeds were dragged away by "savages".
The food in the dining room is not very tasty, the choice is meager and one-sided - a complete disappointment.
The shop on the beach is open when it wants, the work schedule is not observed. The saleswoman is not being polite.
The administration knows everything, but "kicks off" all requests. In general, no one keeps order.
Business on the principle of "the sea will write off everything."
We really liked almost everything in this boarding house, despite the shabby appearance in places and difficulties with transport. The beautiful nature and the warm sea compensate for everything.
First we were given a room with a sea view. It was very shabby in life, but the beds were comfortable. However, two, not a double, as we originally asked for when paying for rooms. But your balcony with the most beautiful view of the sea and the surrounding area, you can forgive a lot for this view.
We were promised to change the room to a more comfortable one and with a new renovation, but there was a shared balcony with neighbors, that is, you can no longer walk in a negligee))
But as a result, they were given a suite on the ground floor, opposite the massage therapist's room, where there is a billiard table.
The room is great. Would be. If it weren't for the gym above your head, in which athletes who came from nowhere jump until 9 pm, although they should have finished their jumps at 8 pm.
The main contingent of the hotel is pensioners of different ages, from relatively young to very old.
There were flying tours with a younger contingent, they even practiced yoga in the lobby of the 1st floor and aqua aerobics in the pool, but this is rather an exception.
There is an elevator to the beach right in front of the hotel exit.
The beach is excellent, private, closed, huge, equipped with sun beds and umbrellas, with footwashers and showers, bathrooms are also on the beach.
A great legacy from the Soviet era, when comfort was really taken care of.
There is practically a shop with everything you need on the beach, a cafe and a large restaurant.
If there was a dance floor in the restaurant and the music was live sometimes, it would be great, I hope it happens in high season.
The food is delicious, the prices are acceptable, alcohol is generally pennies compared to prices in the Russian Federation.
The boarding house itself has an excellent buffet 3 times a day. There is a bar where you can buy alcohol and more.
The food was very good, there were a lot of fresh vegetables, meat, cottage cheese and Sour cream always. The hot dishes are excellent. Eggs or omelet for breakfast almost every day, different cereals. A large selection of pastries for tea. There are no complaints about nutrition at all, it is very good for those with children - there is always a choice of what to feed.
On the first day, we stopped by when lunch was over, but the staff prepared a separate table for us with lunch, which was very pleasant.
The dining room is on the top floor with a terrace and a magnificent view of the coast. It just charges you with the mood for the whole day in the morning.
Yes, also about the room - originally there was a room with 2 beds, a balcony, 2 bedside tables, closets and a bathroom.
The suite has a large double bed, a sofa, a table and chairs, a normal-sized TV with a large selection of programs, an armchair and a dressing room.
Plus the guest bathroom is small.
Its own separate kitchen with a set of dishes and a refrigerator, from the kitchen there is an entrance to a second large bathroom with its own washing machine, shower and toilet. There is a dryer for things. Yes, there is also a small room at the entrance for suitcases and bags, very convenient.
The suite is very nice, if not for the gym on the ceiling, billiards at the entrance and a window to the courtyard.
A large number of different excursions every day. There are difficulties with taxis, so for those who drive, it's generally great. Take a carsharing if there is such an opportunity.
Right behind the fence of the boarding house - the dachas of Stalin and Gorbachev. Lakoba's former summer residence. Probably, this is already a sign of quality for this area - it is really very beautiful here.
You can travel all along the coast or just enjoy the sea - whichever you like.
I recommend.
I would like to join the reviews below, which are not good. I'll start. We rest for the second time in a boarding house. We had a rest last year and liked it. I will also start with money for 12 days, more than 150 thousand for three people. The Euro Suite room. We took an improved one, since there is a renovation here and it does not smell like in the rooms of the State Department. Cleaning every other day. The linen was changed 1 time during the entire vacation, although they had to be changed every three days, towels also need to be changed. They have a problem with the laundress, she quit. But that's not our problem. We came to rest. Next, the administrator, the girl's arrogance is straight. She has to solve problems. I wrote to the maid, but she didn't even come to clean up. Yes, Wi-Fi is only in the lobby and not everywhere. The dining room just went bad. Many dishes smell and are spoiled. The child was poisoned and everyone heard about poisoning people. I don't find fault with the beach much, I didn't like one thing, there wasn't that much last year, outsiders came and occupied the sun beds. They would have driven. Oh, they drove the tentpeople, and the rest. Yes, there are two shops. Last year, at least fruits were sold, but now only watermelon, pumped with nitrates, checked with a nitrometer. In Moscow, they were not even pumped with nitrates. And here the melons and watermelons are all nitrate. We had to go to the checkpoint to get the fruit, it was a long way. If you don't sell fruits yourself, why not let people trade. They don't give a damn about vacationers, there is no friendliness. I also liked the cafe Musser and the service and the food. So, I do not recommend a boarding house. We had a rest once in the private sector and the service and cleaning there were much better.
A cozy place, beautiful nature, an interesting underwater world, the opportunity to sunbathe and swim in the sea naked.I have been visiting this boarding house about ten times already.
I had a rest in October 2023 and in May 2024.Prices in 2024 increased significantly throughout Abkhazia.There are problems with the maid, not everyone is satisfied with heavy loads, food has returned to normal, repairs are continuing in May.I really like the wonderful work of the girls at the reception.
We rested for a week with the children in this boarding house. The nature is amazing, the views are mesmerizing, the clean air and the crystal sea (it's a little dirty after the rain, a lot of vegetation from the mountains). The rooms are old, but with cosmetic repairs. The service is relative: if you do not argue and do not make claims, the wishes are fulfilled. There is a nice indoor swimming pool (for children, small), a large gym with rings, gates and a net, balls are freely available, a tennis table, although only one, often had to wait. You can play billiards for a fee. There is a volleyball court on the beach. The animator conducts competitions. In general, if you and your children love sports, there will be something to do here. The territory is large, there is a place to walk. There is a simple cafe on the beach (to eat ice cream and try local pastries) and a restaurant (to sit in the evening with a view of the sea, prices are reasonable, there is a hookah). The food is not too varied, but the food is delicious. Among the disadvantages of nutrition: there were almost no fruits, only sometimes apples, no coffee machine, only not tasty coffee in bulk, no juices, only compote from Feihua or jelly. In general, everyone ate enough and were happy, especially with this view (the dining room on the 13th floor).You can buy wine (350), juice (100) or ice cream (100) in the dining room. The beach is big and clean (I wrote a separate review for the beach). They take tours of Abkhazia. I want to come back again.
The only thing I liked here was the sea view...the rest is just terrible.Food, room service, staff -everything is very bad.the room was not cleaned until I myself asked the receptionist, bed linen and towels are not changed, they say that they simply do not exist, they are over.From eating on the 5th day, my stomach ached, the child also practically did not leave the toilet for 3 days (((The food is disgusting, solid cabbage and beetroot-for breakfast lunch and dinner.Tea is the cheapest, there are no words about coffee at all.It is unclear what kind of milk with some kind of flakes (((Chicken with a rotten smell (and liver too)).I had pilaf once, I liked it, but it was too greasy.a lot of oil)
You can swim in the sea only before breakfast early in the morning, or after 17.00, because the rest of the time there is a terrible dirty brown foam ...
Prices here are just off the scale, to put it mildly, but there is no sense, people walk gloomy, who is silent, someone understands-especially in the dining room. For comparison, the Sunny Holiday Home is heaven and earth, prices are 2 times lower there, and the service, food and just the attitude towards people are completely different (not like here in Musser.
I do not recommend anyone to come here, rest will not bring you any pleasure here, only some frustration!
We came to Gorbachev's dacha, clean water, a large deserted beach, if you cross the water to the right facing the sea, crabs on rocks, fish, the children liked it, went a couple of times, despite the paid entry of 300 rubles or something, but this includes a tour of the residence, next to Stalin's dacha, there is also a What to see
There are modern comfortable rooms, but many more Soviet rooms. Good food, elevator to the sea, observation deck, cinema room. Organization of sightseeing trips.
The beach is clean. The place is quiet and secluded.
Our family will never go to this hotel again. We paid 215,000 for the room for 4. + The flight totaled 350,000. Guys, for this money, you could have a much cooler vacation in Turkey. Why I started the review with money.. The policy of the hotel is to collect money from you while investing in infrastructure and food at a minimum. The room would cost 2 times cheaper - maybe it would not be so sorry for the money spent. And now the facts:
Room: the mattresses are comfortable, the linen is clean white, there are a lot of towels, everything is clean (they do not provide access to the beach), the bathtub and toilet are sparkling, the refrigerator and fan are working. wifi on the floor, reception.
The dining room is A DISGRACE to the cook! I have never experienced such a shock in my life. I didn't know what to feed the children (10 years old) These rolls are tasteless, the same every day (with cinnamon - cinnamon and does not smell), the bread is stale. there is clearly austerity on meat. There were chicken wings - who eats them?!? - obviously not children. the chicken was mostly stunted (some bones), there was a liver. But they don't eat it. we saved ourselves with small minced meat patties for all 14 days. the noodles are overcooked. once for lunch, the child ate 7 cutlets and took nothing else - there was nothing!. coffee only in the morning, some kind of roadside dust. there is practically no water (there are 2 decanters of tea/coffee, which run out quickly). And I can't describe the cottage cheese casserole, which consists of 80% rice, without a mat. it's necessary to cook such rubber, save on cottage cheese (yes, sometimes there was a normal casserole, but it didn't go to the children either) .several times I watched a picture of how parents can't feed their children, they don't eat anything, they sit and swear. Pensioners seemed to like it, many people were chewing cabbage, beetroot (probably such food comes to them) very rarely there were fresh tomatoes, some kind of green molosol mostly smelled. well, how fresh cucumbers were cut - I chopped piglets at my grandmother's in the village as a child. The most interesting thing is that they were forced to put bags in lockers at the entrance. I thought that the food should not be taken out, but by the end of the vacation I realized that there was nothing to take out, most likely that the dishes would not be stolen (they must have bought) In general, every trip to the canteen is a complete disappointment and stress. we got used to going 1 time / day to a cafe on the embankment and ordered piperoni pizza (this saved us, at least the children ate something with pleasure, but for money). In the dining room there is a "BAR" where decent coffee will be brewed and apple juice freshly squeezed for 250 rubles will be made a small glass, wine is poured there, etc. from fruits: there was a watermelon 5 times in 2 weeks and some kind of weird apples.
THE SEA: we took the elevator down to the beach, it was also a shock. the path on the beach is lined with food pallets (wood). The children's legs slipped into holes, got stuck + splinters en masse. It's not very safe. A collective farm faucet with a hose for washing off sand. But when I went to the shower on the beach, I was horrified, there was mold everywhere, it was scary to approach. then I got used to it, but it was disgusting to wash. The toilet on the beach is clean, but the cabins are so small that it is impossible to stay there. and the most important thing is shezlogs. there are enough of them, BUT ... 90% of all deck chairs are broken . I actually thought that they had bought them somewhere used and broken. if you or the child sit down and constantly pinches the body, children's legs get stuck. A VERY unsafe beach in terms of infrastructure! There are 2 grocery and household shops on the beach, the price tag is acceptable.
Entertainment: cool animator, cinema hall in the afternoon and evening. Make no mistake that you are eating in the reserve, there are no "health" trails there, there is nowhere to walk at all, the playground is scary to approach. Everyone is on their phones and watching movies.
they were afraid to use the hotel's transfer services, so they ordered a transfer to VK.
and now back to the price for this pleasure. the price tag is being charged from vacationers, while there are no investments, it is written everywhere about fines.
We bought, lost weight, rested, but the feeling that we are overpaying does not let go, and spoils the whole impression. next year we will rent apartments in another place and go to a cafe to eat. it will be cheaper and tastier this way. And the director of this institution would like to advise not to hide behind the backs of the girls in the dining room, on the beach and at the reception, but to go out himself at least sometimes, vacationers have something to say to him.
Despite the fact that our room had a Soviet renovation, and in general the whole sanatorium "breathes" Soviet times, we really liked everything. THE SEA is the purest!!! Pine trees on the territory - THE AIR is wonderful. The staff is very friendly, responds to requests and helps as much as possible. The food is a buffet: delicious, varied and a lot. The dining room is on the top floor, offering a magnificent view of the surrounding area. There is a fairly large indoor pool. A huge library. Cinema. Gym. Yoga in the gym and on the beach. They are constantly engaged with children-drawing, modeling, various crafts, educational games, a children's disco in the evening. A long deserted beach. Near the sanatorium, the beach is equipped with umbrellas, sun beds, a foot shower, a toilet. There is a volleyball court on the beach. Various excursions are offered. The sanatorium is located very separately, there is no civilization nearby. We were in the car, so it didn't bother us. Some people rest here from year to year and know each other. It's quiet at night, no one makes any noise. In general, a great place to relax from the hustle and bustle. Only a good, kind impression.
We had a rest from November 3 to November 8 and I also really want to share a review! This is an incredible place in its beauty and splendor of nature! Beautiful sea, beautiful trees, the view from above only emphasizes this beauty! The idea of the dining room on the 13th floor is beyond praise, the KGB knew a lot about rest 😀 The food, in my opinion, is diverse, there are a lot of vegetables, there are both dairy and meat dishes! Respect to the cook! I sincerely do not understand the negative reviews about food. Drinks are sold in the dining room - Abkhazian wines, vodka, chacha, cognac. The prices are very affordable. Wine bottle 400 rubles, glass 150, vodka 100 grams - 100 rubles. There is also a Penguin cafe and a Musser restaurant on the shore. In the cafe, the prices for alcohol are the same, the divine khachapuri boat and fried cheese!!!! Be sure to try it! Ate every day!
Of the minuses - the rooms are cold, the heating was not turned on, and forest bugs that somehow miraculously seep into the room through the closed windows! Next time we will come with a sealant or we will choose a room with plastic windows
August 2024. This is the first time in this boarding house. About the number. We had a two-room apartment without renovation. I don't know what people who write reviews mean by calling them a "scoop" or numbers from the USSR, and for what, to justify mismanagement? The USSR built a solid building, comfortable rooms, almost all with sea views, in which he left beautiful parquet, wooden panels, huge cabinets - so put in order, make it beautiful! It is not necessary to destroy, restore, make ala "retro antique rooms" beat, connect with history (I do not remember where, there was a room named after the traveler Marco Polo), otherwise they patched up, the parquet was replaced with carpet or laminate and called repair. There are a lot of laudatory reviews here, I will not repeat the advantages, they undoubtedly exist and are very large, which is why people come here and the administration believes that they will come anyway.
But it's a matter of time and the current situation. You can't take advantage of the decline in tourist traffic to Crimea, it's temporary. Meanwhile, Crimea is still building roads, decent hotels, and repairing sanatoriums.
I will write down all the disadvantages of the boarding house that I noticed. So.
The sofa is collapsed, the springs are sticking out. And we have a suite, albeit without repair!!! What does it mean? Sleeping is uncomfortable. Where is the suite? Mattresses on the beds are also on the way. Loggias ask for comfortable chairs and a table. The sea view is amazing! We even had a flower pot. And where are the flowers?! One of the two rooms has air conditioning, this is where the sofa is. The other one doesn't even have a fan. It was hot and stuffy in August. Even if there is not much repair, you can still be patient, but the air conditioner is very necessary.
I won't complain about the cleaning. They cleaned our place, but the maid is the only one on five floors!
The linen is cotton, good. They change it in five days.
Cotton towels, white three pcs. There are no beach towels in the beach hotel!
There is one in the most shabby sanatorium, but not here.
Further. Beach. Big, just your own. There is an ad hanging so that they do not occupy the sun beds, they promise a fine. All the sun beds are covered with different rags (and at night), after 10 o'clock on a sunny day you will hardly find a broken sunbed in the sun.
The sun beds, almost all, with rare exceptions, are cracked in the middle. Do they buy the cheapest ones? In my opinion, there are very inefficient umbrellas on the beach and one canopy, very small, under which all the sun beds are always made, and there are few people. In the same Crimea, there are canopies along all retaining walls. And in Yevpatoria there are beautiful, snow-white wooden canopies.
I would like the administration to pay attention to the improvement of the beach. Make more canopies!!! You are welcome! Now people try to stay in the sun as little as possible, but they want to stay on the beach longer. Give me the opportunity.
Further. The steps to the beach are made of rebar, glued crookedly / obliquely. We need good, strong, smooth steps, not these pieces of iron. The contingent here is not very young, people can fall and disfigure themselves.
And another thing: using pallets instead of a comfortable wooden walkway is also unacceptable on the beach, there is a chance that a person will fall and get hurt. I am convinced that the cost of a wooden walkway is low for such a boarding house, cheaper than litigation over broken legs and ribs.
And the last thing: they did not see the rescue service. Maybe there is? Have we not found it?
I am writing my review specifically so that the administration will pay attention to the problems of the boarding house, and not in order to lower the rating. He's tall, but he can be truthfully tall.w
It is very difficult to tell about it, it is very difficult to tell unequivocally. At the same time, the family is happy with their vacation at this hotel.
The hotel is ideal in terms of location. From the point of view of accommodation, it is a humiliation for residents.
Living is not even the USSR, it's something else. Even Soviet comfort has been torn out. There is room cleaning, there is clean linen, there is no fresh simple renovation, which should correspond to the location of this hotel. You will understand what I am writing about only when you arrive there.
But, most importantly! the whole family went to the sea, to nature, to peace of mind and tourist delights - we got it in full. The car had its own and therefore we could afford to move in any direction, which helped us a lot.
The dining room in the hotel is good or even very good, the selection of products is small, but quite enough. There are tables on the terrace overlooking the sea that are trying to occupy everything, so be quick.
There are cafe restaurants by the sea, I liked the restaurant better.
It is important to understand for those who are used to expensive service and cool rooms, it will be extremely uncomfortable there. For those who lived in Khrushchev, they will remember the past.
There were unpleasant situations on the beach when hotel guests left the beach, covered the sun beds with towels with their other belongings, returned after a couple of hours wanting to stay in their places. The rules of the hotel forbid this, but there were conflicts.
You are the only one for me: buy vouchers to this hotel, but you know at sea, there will be very few people on the beach, the food will be quite acceptable, but there will be little comfort in the rooms.
Very beautiful nature, the boarding house is located in a protected forest. For those who like to relax away from civilization. For those who like promenades along the embankment, evening parties are probably not suitable, because the boarding house is located in a nature reserve, there are no shops or restaurants. But there are excursions. The food is very good.
The location of the boarding house is gorgeous, because it is a protected area and that says it all. The air, the water, the sea, the beach are beautiful. There are different rooms, we were lucky this year. I'm not picky about food, I was satisfied, the only thing I would like is a greater variety of fruits, not just apples, which we were given for 15 days. The staff is friendly. The animation for the children was wonderful. The child is still delighted and continues to communicate on the Internet with new friends.
Yes, there is Wi-Fi in the rooms and lobby, but it is not very good, sometimes it flew off. Maybe it's for the best)))
We rested there with the whole family a couple of times, everything is very cool, quiet and idyllic. A vacation for those who want to relax their soul in silence next to the sea. The beach is private, pebbles but not large, foot massage))) The sea just went down in the elevator and here it is) The food is good for a buffet. There are pastries and salads, without frills, but everything is quite decent! On the territory of the recreation bench through the fence Gorbanevskaya dacha) Everything is surrounded by greenery. The rooms are the legacy of the USSR but the shower toilet is in the room) There is also Wi-Fi.The building has a swimming pool on site, a cafe bar and a restaurant. Fruits are always brought there is a fruit tent nearby. In general, I recommend it for those who like relaxation for the soul)
In general, I really liked the boarding house! The most beautiful place! Probably the best in Abkhazia! A very solid and beautiful former sanatorium for KGB workers, opened in 1982, but still looks very impressive and powerful after renovation! We lived in an improved renovated suite! There are some minor flaws after the repair, but in general we are very satisfied! Let's come back again! The only dining room..the food is monotonous..for some reason, they reserve tables on the outdoor terrace..where everyone wants to sit with a view of the open sea! The staff is very helpful and helpful. In general, this is probably the best boarding house in Abkhazia for us at the moment.
Plus: a great location in the bosom of nature. Cons: there is no service at all (the administrator hides from the guests, the room was cleaned once in 5 days of presence), the food is bad, the rooms are dirty (did not see the repair at all), ants in the room, one hair dryer, kettle and iron for the entire floor!No animation (it was in the middle of July 2024), a pool with flies. We arrived with two children, and on the third day they all fell ill from an intestinal infection. Moreover, both the staff and the guests are sick, but they all blame the sea. I was at sea, I didn't swallow water and I also got a bowel. I don't advise anyone. This is not Soviet romance, but a mess!

Two impressions remained from the rest at the boarding house, they were in August 24.
It is a very beautiful place, the air is clean, the sea is gorgeous, clean, even if there was a downpour on the coast, there was no mud. Remoteness from settlements is a plus for some, a minus for others, but if you compare, then silence, the absence of entertaining floating attractions, such as bananas, boats - this is undoubtedly a big plus! Recreation is for the elderly, the young will be bored.
We lived in a renovated room, air conditioning, a hairdryer (there is no mirror), a refrigerator on the floor is one for everyone (complete wildness), there is also a kettle and a hairdryer shared on the floor. There is an ironing board and an iron on the floor, which pleases. The room is very small, there are hangers, but there is no closet where to hang things on these hangers ((( The balcony is large, there are chairs, but preferably also a table would be put. The view of the mountains suited us perfectly.
In 2 weeks, if you wiped the floor 2-3 times, then it's good. After living a week, they "caught" the maid so that, at least, the towels were changed(((
In the dining room (positioned as a restaurant), they did not indulge in variety, sometimes something was delicious, but the same thing gets boring, we went to a restaurant on the beach. There were often not enough cups and cutlery. There were young people working in the hall, of course, they tried, but still they had to be told that it was impossible to grab the dishes from under their hands and reach across the table with food. There are reviews that vacationers were poisoned and about not fresh food, I will say that I, with my sick stomach, never felt bad.
There are not enough sun loungers and umbrellas on the beach, people have to borrow in advance.
Until Madame the manager came out of vacation, there was peace and quiet. When she appeared, scandals began, not only did the lady yell at the workers at the vacationers (not pleasant), she also sent them to throw things off the deck chairs, everything fell into a pile. Firstly, it's not hygienic, and secondly, why do people have to carry all their things with them when they go out for lunch? Among the vacationers were the disabled, the elderly, and families with three or four children. Instead of such wild behavior, wouldn't it be better to increase the number of umbrellas and deck chairs? Moreover, the territory is more than it allows! There are a lot of problems of unsettled conditions in the boarding house - that's where you need to direct energy! Yes, in the end, it was necessary to organize cleaning on the beach, we had to collect it ourselves, it is clear that vacationers are "piggy", but nevertheless it is the responsibility of the administration. On the beach, toilets, showers, paths are all in terrible condition, mold, dirt. There are empty shops, why not let fruit sellers in there (they traded there earlier, until they were kicked out by the same manager), now vacationers are forced to walk a kilometer to the barrier or go to the market in Gudauta or Gagra (((
The policy of the madam manager is this, if dissatisfied people come to complain:"You won't come - others will come." At the same time, the vouchers are not very cheap.
I wish this boarding house had a good business manager!
We had a rest at the boarding house from October 25 to November 1. Room with sea view, standard. Large, the beds are new, the room has been renovated. But, for some reason, there was no shampoo or gel in the shower. The maid refused the request. There is a kettle and a hairdryer in the hallway on the floor. The food is good, like at home. I did not like the organization of the return transfer to Adler - on foot across the border with suitcases!!!
So, I got to the review:
Of the advantages:
- incredibly beautiful nature, clean air and sea
- located in a nature reserve
- there are no other boarding houses nearby, no one…
- on-site there is a shop with everything you need, a cafe and a restaurant. The food is delicious, the prices are normal even in the restaurant.
- a large area, there is a place to walk, a swimming pool, a gym, an elevator to the beach, sun beds and umbrellas on the beach, there are sources of mines. water
- very nice view from the dining room, there is an open veranda overlooking the sea
- Stalin and Gorbachev's dacha is nearby, not just in this place
- beer (100 r) and wine (400 r) are available in the dining room and shop. Wine of your choice, Abkhazian. One beer.
Cons:
-I think the price / quality ratio is not justified in the peak season
- the word "service" is missing as a concept a priori
- dead numbers. The wallpaper is torn, the furniture is falling apart, the bathrooms are from the 1980s, not all rooms have air conditioning, upholstered furniture is like from a garbage dump
-linen is changed 1 time in 3 days, it is poorly washed, plumbing is not washed at all. She rubbed the floor and left.
-no beach towels
- if the sunbeds are not occupied at 5 am (I'm not kidding, everything is already occupied at 6) then you can lie on a wild beach or on a pebble sand wherever you have to
- half of the sunbeds are broken
- the food is edible, but there are only two types of it. Pork and chicken under different types. There is no variety. They never gave me fish in a week, for example
- we have to wait for the elevator to the dining room)
- the Internet is weak
Anyway. The place is cool. I recommend it for a visit. But the boarding house itself is not very good. If you go and get up at 5 a.m. to spend the whole day at sea, it will go.
We rested at the boarding house for the first time and the last time. It is not clear where so many rave reviews come from. There is no desire to return there again. Some disadvantages. At the reception, the receptionist talks through his teeth. The rooms are terrible, there is only a shelf in the bathroom, toilet paper is on a barrel, there is nowhere to hang a bath towel. There is no buffet as such, there are carrots, beets and cabbage, porridge on water, in the evenings salted broth with crackers and cutlets. Of the fruits, only some not tasty apples. Watermelon was given 2 times. And then we got only crusts. You have to go to the checkpoint for fruits, it's about 30 minutes on foot. But since the boarding house has no territory, all this road is used for walking. Umbrellas are naturally not enough for everyone. The beach chairs are mostly broken, but if you try hard, you can find a whole one. You can not borrow them, you will face a fine for this. But everyone does not pay attention to this and leaves towels. About fines, they are for everything, for late delivery of keys, for taking food out of the dining room, for smoking on the balcony, for sun beds. There are only signs with fines everywhere. Animation can be said no. The animator is trying to entertain somehow, but he's no good. The only plus is the beautiful nature and the sea. We were lucky, the sea was calm and clear all the time. It was stormy for only 2 days, and at that time they did not know what to do with themselves. Because apart from the sea, there is nothing to do there at all. With this quality of service, prices are very high
We were in late September-early October 2023.
The best vacation for your money: 30t.r for two 8 nights with 3 meals a day.
Buffet meals, everything is high-quality, fresh, the choice is somewhat limited, but everything is there. The sea is just fire. Nature is super!!! There is no Turkey nearby, although I have been there more than once, in Abkhazia for the first time. Everything is sincere.
We will go in 2024, at the same time.
We rested 03.07.23 to 12.07.23. Wonderful place, I really liked it. We checked in very quickly, the room was clean, refrigerator, kettle, cleaned daily, changed bed linen and towels after 6 days. The room has a very beautiful view of the sea. Every day they posted a schedule of entertainment, exercises on the beach, in the pool, a movie, a disco, the kids are also not forgotten, they have dancing, and educational workshops, beauty! The restaurant is large, there is a terrace, the distribution of dishes is replenished very quickly, the waiters work smartly, the chefs cook very tasty, just the wizards of the kitchen, I was pleased with the buffet. Three elevators bring vacationers to the 13th floor without delay. The door lock in our room broke, it was repaired very quickly. Excursions are offered for every taste. Our guide, a very pleasant young man, Almaskhan, heroically, in the rain, conducted a wonderful, memorable tour with a great sense of humor, answered numerous questions. We went down to the sea by elevator, the view from this site is amazing. The beach is clean, there is no garbage lying around, if the sailor throws out sticks, branches and other nonsense, everything is immediately cleaned. There is a Penguin cafe on the beach, where we tasted awesome khachapuri on the first day, and in the following days we went there as if to work for delicious pastries and fragrant coffee. Another restaurant on the beach with the same name was also visited, so as not to leave without a barbecue. We will remember this place for a long time, good luck to the staff and thank you so much for your work!
A magical place.Amazing nature, complete isolation from the outside world.The nearest village is a 30-minute drive away.The warm, gentle sea.A vacation for those who prefer peace and solitude
Excellent boarding house, the food is delicious. The rooms of course require renovation, there are no air conditioners. Cleaned every day, clean everywhere. The sea is gorgeous.
The rooms and the hotel are clean and comfortable, but the price tag does not meet expectations. The food is modest, the Buffet - what can I say? Around the perimeter of the camera and the announcement that the take-out of food is 15 t.r. - fine! Outdoor shower and tu.in a deplorable state.The price tag in the kiosks at the hotel is also not encouraging.The beach is rubbish, but the sea is clean and the sunset is good.
