We stayed at this hotel from 09/20/2024 to 09/27/2024. We really enjoyed the rest, the hotel is super. The food is excellent and varied, the alcohol is excellent, the bartenders are handsome, they do not regret alcohol, especially in the 24-hour bar) The staff is friendly and friendly) the animation is great, the sea is super, the beach is not big, but there was always enough space for everyone) a bunch of bars and where to eat, you will not stay sober and hungry)) in general, everything was fine, my wife and I really enjoyed our vacation at Senza the inn)) Important tip: if you want the room to be clean every day, leave a small tip for the cleaners (we left $ 1 every day and we changed towels every day and changed bed linen twice a week, do not be stingy, friends))
Pros:
* nice big pool, interesting animation it has;
* the choice of food at first glance is varied, but on the second or third day it gets boring. For the most part, the food is delicious.
Cons:
* the chrome parts in the room are in an inappropriate form: bathroom faucet, front door handles. This applies to the Standard room, there are rumors that things are better in Comfort;
* elevators look disgusting: the glass looks like pigeons have made a mess;
* There is no free Wi-Fi even in the lobby. Moreover, the tour operator said that it was available, a colleague was on vacation in May 2024, wi-fi was;
* in general, alcohol is a minus. As far as I am aware, 'Ultra all Inclusive' implies imported alcohol, but there is none here, regardless of the cocktail chosen, it is made on raki, it can be replaced with local rum/whiskey, if you point it out. Beer is nothing.
* the refrigerator in the room was not working, it was fixed only from the third request to the address;
* sandy-galichny beach, in fact, I collected the disadvantages of a sandy beach (muddy water from raised sand) and galichny (it hurts to move without corals);
* a free hammam is announced... but only 30 minutes for the entire rest time, ignored it altogether;
* To the east of the hotel is the Arabi Mosque, at 5 a.m... into the microphone... some kind of prayer begins for the whole area, which is very audible in the room;
* Tennis table... the grid is wobbling in all directions from the wind, the gap is 3 centimeters. I asked to fix it, the grid was tightened, they scored on the gap.
We stayed at this hotel with a young man in October. The hotel is not bad, beautiful, the food is all delicious and varied, the service is good. The most important thing is the beach and the sea is clean. I would like to mention Katerina and her assistants, who in a short time organized a table for the proposal, rose petals, candles, balloons, etc. everything is on top and very beautiful👍
I liked the hotel, I was with my girlfriend and her little daughter in early November. The room is nice, 3 separate beds, which is quite important, clean. The plumbing is certainly not new, but everything works fine. The only thing is, the elevators are very dirty, beautiful, but it was not very pleasant to enter them, especially for the first time. All the hotel staff are very friendly and attentive, there is quite enough entertainment for children, a playground, a children's pool, the animators of the girls are also good. There is definitely a lot of food))) But to be honest, almost everything is not delicious, well, or I'm too picky. There is practically no choice of fish or meat. Maybe it's just the end of the season.
I'll write the pros first: the water park is super👍, the food is also excellent, booze of all kinds in any quantity, everything is very tasty in the bistro restaurant too, we also got a good room with a sea view and a huge balcony😍 cleaning for 4. Cons: of course this is the beach, very dirty sea👎, we went to Cleopatra beach a couple of times, in principle, it is not problematic (the fare is 40 lira, the time is 20 minutes and there), animation is in principle there, but there have never been any visiting artists, a very big minus is also the music by the pool - it is not exactly designed for Russians. We didn't pay anything extra for the room, we had a late check-in, we came to the reception at 12 o'clock, our bracelets were not removed, we used the territory and went to lunch))) So, there will be more positivity and the same attitude towards you😉 For the price we paid, I am very happy in principle, despite the disadvantages. If the price of the hotel is good, then go without hesitation😀
We rested at the hotel from 4-14.10.24
We drove from the airport for about 2 hours, thanks to the guide (we are from anex), the trip was fast and we learned a lot of interesting things about the country, since this is our first time in Turkey.
Upon arrival at the hotel at 13:00, we were offered early check-in for $ 10 per hour, of course we refused, put our things in the luggage room and went to explore the surroundings. We returned at 14:00 and we were safely settled.
Our room was standard on the ground floor, the room was not bad - stylish interior, balcony.
Of course, there were nuances in the room: when taking a shower, water runs all over the bathroom, because the threshold in the shower is very low.
The room also smells of sewage. At first we thought it was from the bathroom, but then we found a way to get rid of the problem: just always turn on the air conditioner, no matter what temperature and power, the main thing is that it just works and there will be no smell!
TV, mini-bar are working. There are Russian channels on TV, many foreign ones in different languages. There is a kettle, but pay attention to its cleanliness from the inside. The bottom of ours was covered in white plaque and these white flakes were floating! It is better to take boiling water at the bar.
Room cleaning:
The cleaning is actually very mediocre, one day the room will be cleaned, the other day only the bathroom, on what principle the choice is unknown to me. But at least they offered cleaning every day, even if they included "do not disturb".
Towels were changed about once every 2 days, bed linen 1 time in 10 days. Soap and snout reported, please note that toothbrushes and toothpaste are not provided - take your own.
Meal:
There is a lot of food and you can eat 24/7. There are many bars and restaurants.
There is a large selection in the main restaurant, not everything can be eaten, but you will definitely not stay hungry. Lots of salads, cheeses, sausages, vegetables/fruits. Very tasty pancakes for breakfast, delicious mashed potatoes, grilled turkey, fish (but not all)
There are a lot of sweets, but they taste disgusting, although they look very beautiful
There is also a wide variety of drinks. Alcohol: wine/champagne sucks, cocktails more or less, strong alcohol will do.
Ala kart fish restaurant: very tasty shrimp, squid in 50/50 batter, fish and soup are delicious. The only disadvantage is that you have to wait until the waiters bring your dishes (10 minutes each dish)
The guests smoke always and everywhere, even at the table. If you don't want to smell these scents, dine indoors, not on the terrace
Animation:
As such, I didn't notice the animation at all. In the afternoon, about every hour, there was a five-minute session by the pool (something like a warm-up), sometimes water polo was held, and evening animation was complete boredom. But it's not critical for us, that's not why we came.
Pool and beach
A large and clean swimming pool. There have always been sun beds (mb due to the fact that the end of the season). But the water is colder than in the sea
The beach on the sea is small, there have always been sun beds as well. The entrance is pebbly, but we are on our beach and have not swum once. We always threw things on our sun beds and went to the next beach on the right. The water is much warmer there, the waves are smaller and the approach is more gentle and without stones. In the evening, the water is already cloudy, it is better to come in the morning. There is a bar on the beach: drinks and French fries + burgers. There is a normal clean toilet, shower, changing room. We always walked to the beach - it took 7-10 minutes to walk, we never accidentally got on the shuttle
Water park:
There are mini slides and there are basic ones. The main slides are for older children and adults, but keep in mind that the pool itself is shallow and when leaving the slide (personally, I) constantly hit my back / ass on the bottom. In general, it is normal, but it certainly cannot be compared with the slides in land of legends.
WiFi is paid, it's better to take a SIM card so as not to be tied to the hotel. The SIM card cost us $ 38 for 30GB of Internet - we took it from the anex guide, but there are a lot of other places - the choice is yours
Many people still write about music by the pool, to be honest, I didn't notice it at all - it plays quite quietly.
By the way, I already wanted to write that there are no cockroaches, as 3 days before departure I met him in the toilet at night. It was unpleasant, but I didn't see them anymore.
The staff, except for the reception, speaks Russian poorly or does not speak at all, so remember basic English.
The general impression is that it's fine for your money, there are disadvantages, but generally uncritical. We liked it.

General information:
If, like us, you are thinking of not taking any things like slates, razors, hats, etc. with you, be sure to take your own!!! Prices in stores are 2-3 times higher than in Russia. It is better to buy on the WB for pennies than to overpay here.
It is better to go shopping in migros (5 min walk), it is more expensive at the hotel and at the market. By the way, they don't like to bargain in the market. At best, they will throw off a little, and then they will give up and leave😂
As for the currency, the locals like the currency of $ €, because of the high inflation in the country, but it is better to have lira with you. Because sometimes the price of a product is 8€ / 8$ / 340 liras, if translated into rubles, then it is not the same thing. But most often it is more profitable to pay in lira. By the way, we always paid in lira. Some shops on the market accept rubles by transfer.
Excursions: we took the hotel from our guide from anex, but they are a little more expensive than near the hotel. But keep in mind that the group will be Russian-speaking, including a guide, and if you buy around the corner, then the group is a combined hodgepodge and it is not a fact that someone will be Russian. We preferred to overpay a little for our comfort. Anex buses are very comfortable and new.
By the way, I recommend visiting an excursion to Pamukkale (balloons, Lake Salda, wine tasting and Toros Safari (rafting, buggy, zipline, jeep safari (in fact an open gazelle). In Toros safari, do not spare money for a wetsuit - the water on rafting is very cold!
We also went to the hammam and the Turkish Disneyland. Keep in mind, everywhere you will be bred for money, do not be fooled by this.
Well, the cherry on the cake, at 5:45 every day begins to shout something very loudly in Turkish (apparently the time of morning prayer), fortunately it ends in 5-10 minutes, but it's not pleasant. Due to the large time difference, we went to bed at 21-22h, the music of the neighboring hotels did not bother us, although it could be heard.
THE BEST VACATION!
We went to Turkey for the first time with my husband and a 3-year-old child. Before that, I was only in Russia and Hainan.
PROS:
1. Varied and delicious food. Fish, meat every day. Various fruits. Delicious desserts.Delicious pancakes for breakfast.All the most delicious things are cooked on the grill.
2. Good non-alcoholic drinks and alcohol.There are juices, coffee, soda, they can make a cocktail without alcohol, good Efes beer is tasty and without bitterness, champagne from bottles is good, wine is not so tasty, dry. Tequila is super in its pure form, brought in shots with lime. You can make gin and tonic, whiskey cola, blue lagoon, etc. My head doesn't hurt the next morning.
3. There are a lot of places where you can eat. You won't stay hungry.I attach photos of all places where you can eat.
4. Although the beach is small, there are always free sun beds, in the evening there is almost no one.There is a pebble to the left of the breakwater, it is not very convenient to enter, but if the waves are good, you can swing. If you walk to the right of the beach, there is perfect sand, a gentle entrance to the sea and fewer waves.
It takes 5 minutes to walk to the beach through an underground passage. You can drive a blue tractor (shuttle) from the water park.
5.A good water park separately for children and separately for adults, there are queues. The slide on the tubing is a buzz.
6. A nice big playground. There's a small trampoline, tube slides, and a swing.
7. There are 2 large adult pools and 1 children's pool with a slide. The water is comfortable for swimming.
8. The rooms are good, they have everything you need to stay. A huge 2-bedroom bed.We were given a room on the 3rd floor with a huge terrace. There were a limited
number of rooms like ours, they were on the streets of the building.
9. In 10 days, not one cockroach was found in the room.
10. They give beach towels. You can receive them by cards, you can take them every day until 19 in order to get clean ones the next day from 9.
11. The air conditioning in the rooms is built-in, not above the bed.Therefore, it is comfortable to use it for sleeping.
12. There is a local supermarket Migros nearby. It is better to buy everything you want in it. The prices are not inflated, as for the locals.
13. Those who stay for 7 days can visit the Fish Restaurant by appointment. It is better to sign up immediately upon arrival, the places are quickly disassembled.
14. The hotel is 17 km from Alanya. You can get away from the rest of the public transport by 101.01 bus for 40 liras per person. It takes 30 minutes to drive. The buses are comfortable, with a conder, you can pack your luggage.A taxi costs from $30. In Alanya, you can ride a cable car for 345 liras per person. There is a fortress on the mountain, entrance is paid. Beautiful Cleopatra beach next to the cable car. Turquoise sea and snow-white sand made of small stones. The entrance to the sea is convenient to the left of the mountain. In other places there are natural slabs.
15. There are 2 outlets nearby. 1 towards Alanya in 10 min walk. 2 towards Konakla at 15 min. There you can pay with cards and rubles. The bank will charge a service fee. They took 99 rubles from Tinkoff.
CONS:
1. The hotel is 100 km away from the airport. It takes 2-3 hours to drive.
2. The elevator. It's a long time to wait for him, it's easier to go up the stairs. And it's stuffy in there.
3. We came across a not very good hotel guide from Anex tour. After meeting him, half of the information was different from reality. And excursions are much cheaper to take in other places.
4. Paid Wi-Fi. You can pay every day, if necessary, or take it for a certain number of days. 1 day - $ 3, 10 days - $ 20.
Take euros or dollars with you and exchange them for lira in Turkey. At the hotel, the guide can transfer money to the savings account, he will give you the currency you need.In duty free, excellent prices for everything, when you fly home, leave money in the currency for this.It is very hot in July (32-45). If you go, then either in late May or early June, or in the velvet season. Who smokes and from Russia. Take your cigarettes with you, there are terrible cigarettes there, even the ones we have. They are super light.
A very cool family hotel. We stayed for 10 days using the ultra all inclusive option. A children's amphitheater, a water park with races, a well-equipped beach, a huge number of restaurants, food 24/7, without restrictions. Entertainment of animators in the pools every day. Game zones.
Hello, everyone. I'm resting here now from 22.07 to 30.07.2024.I want to say right away I really liked it. There are a lot of advantages to the food, (there is always a lot of varied fruits, the sea) alcohol is also good, not greedy))) if necessary, they will pour a whole glass of whiskey, gin, tequila. The water park is super. The beach is also good, but with stones ((((Massage on a separate step is excellent (Thai people do)
But there are also disadvantages: few Russians (very few) Germans are very arrogant. Nearby there are youth hotels from there the music screams until 3 am. There is a highway nearby, cars are buzzing day and night. The staff does not understand Russian well, but the English school curriculum helps them learn. Wi-Fi is paid, but it takes a very good charge everywhere on the beach and in all hotels. You can also use it to communicate through a translator. Have a good rest and good luck!!!
A wonderful hotel and friendly staff cleaned the room every day and changed towels every 2 days, everything was at a fairly good level for food and drink. It takes about 15 minutes to walk to the beach. There is a grocery store near the hotel where you can buy all sorts of Turkish sweets and souvenirs.
Great hotel! I rested in it for 3 years in a row. The food is good and varied, we always walked to the sea, but you can drive for 2 minutes)). I really liked the rooms, they were cleaned every day and the bed was changed even more often than necessary)). We always had fun. I advise you!!
A good hotel, excellent service, and delicious, high-quality room cleaning, give tips at the reception upon check-in - there will be a room with a gorgeous view. There are shops.
The sea is far enough away, cosmetic repairs would not hurt, there is no gym.
Overall, a good hotel, delicious food, clean pools, good slides, lots of sun beds on the beach and by the pool, good animation. When the air conditioner broke down, they came to us within 5 minutes and repaired it. In general, they react quickly, the staff is friendly. There is a bazaar nearby, you can buy gifts for yourself and your family. There is a shuttle service to the beach every 30 minutes, but you can walk in 15 minutes. The only drawback is that in the 10 days that we were there, we never changed the towels. I'm surprised, because it's 5 🌟. But it didn't spoil the impression much, let's come here again!
We rested from September 30 to October 10, 2024, the air temperature is 28-32, the water is 25. A great place to relax, 2 coastline, a trailer transports vacationers from the hotel every half hour, although we only used it 2 times in 11 days, it's interesting just to walk. The walk to the beach took 7-8 minutes. The entrance to the sea is with large pebbles, it is better to use the neighboring beach on the right there is sand. The food is varied: fruits, vegetables, sweets, cakes, meat (chicken, turkey), fish mostly fried (mackerel, something like sprats, some kind of pile and once they gave red salmon fish), soups from the category of mashed potatoes (lentil, tomato) but on day 7 Turkish food gets boring. On the 4th day we visited the ala-kart fish restaurant, it was very good, served, some kind of incomprehensible salad made of grass, shrimp, dorado fish, 4 types of sauces, with champagne. Those who are going to Turkey for the first time will certainly enjoy both food and rest, and those who will not come there for the first time will certainly find their disadvantages. Every evening except Sunday there is a concert with local animators. Local alcohol vodka-rake, whiskey, rum and so on is based on the same rake only mixed with cola fanta, etc.
It's a great hotel, even if it's a budget 5.The food is varied, there is always something to choose for every taste. There is a chicken restaurant and a bistro cafe by the pool. Pizza is on fire there and delicious salads.
The animation is cool, the drinks are not bad. The staff is helpful. It's not very close to the sea, but there is a train running. The water park is good, the children enjoyed visiting it.We liked the hotel.
Nice, beautiful, big hotel. Cozy rooms, friendly staff, delicious food, the only drawback is the beach. I don't like to write negatives, so about the beach - it's all the details. In the village of Turkler, this hotel was accidentally visited by T. Unfortunately, there were no seats in the Senza Grand in Mahmutlar. And they bought it there. We stayed at this hotel for 4 days, which was reviewed, then we were returned to Mahmutlar. In Senza Grand.
We always relax with a positive attitude, so we took these trips to 2 hotels with a sense of adventure character. We liked the hotel very much, cleanliness, beauty, delicious,))) and by the way, we had very nice bonuses for our ordeal ..... in the form of free Wi-Fi in both hotels and rooms with sea views!! And Wi-Fi for a minute, for 10 days, 20 euros. Thanks a lot for that. They also brought fruit and wine to the room. This is the first time in this hotel chain, we will recommend it.
Nice hotel. We were in Turkey for the first time. We were more than satisfied. It's clean and beautiful, the food is good. The only negative is the location. It hurts to have nowhere to go. It takes a long time to get to the city.
A gorgeous hotel. The kindest kind staff, two huge swimming pools. However, first walk to the sea, and then go through the underpass. Insanely delicious food. High slides in the water park. The rooms are of the same type, but clean and spacious
The location is 400 meters from the sea, every half hour there is a trailer to the road leading to the sea, then you will have to walk 35 meters on foot through the underpass, anyway if you ate a lot after going to the beach, just a little food is packed, there is a bazaar with ATMs, a pharmacy and of course products and things nearby through the fence. There are cafes, bars and restaurants within walking distance, a large base and a shopping center within a 10-minute walk. The entrance to the sea is sand , half a meter of large Pebbles and sand , clean in comparison with neighboring hotels, the sea is very warm (25.09-05.10), it rained once for 20 minutes. Private sun beds, free of charge, bar and kitchen by the sea , delicious. The kitchen itself is all edible, you can lick your fingers, meat is always, fish is a little less common, there are plenty of greens, for desserts for an amateur, if you mess around, you will always find something delicious. French fries, always, pastries, always, fed to the slaughter, thank you. The rooms are clean, refrigerator and air conditioning, a view of the sea and a private water park with a swimming pool, 5 slides in the water park, and a separate area for children under 6 years old. There are also tortillas with cheese and meat, a bar nearby. A separate area next to the pool, where pasta, pizza and burgers are prepared according to your order (pasta is so-so, Bergers and pizza are normal)
To be honest, a nice clean hotel , with delicious cuisine and adequate staff . Paid WiFi, works everywhere.

I do not recommend the hotel for those who come to relax from the hustle and bustle of the city. It's beautiful, big, and clean. There is a large swimming pool for adults and children, a separate water park, Playground, gym, sauna, spa, 6-7 min walk to the beach. The beach is not big, but clean, pleasant service. Meals for 4, I liked the pastries for breakfast. I liked the coffee shop, a quiet and pleasant place. One of the disadvantages. you will arrive at 12, and they will check in at 14. If you want, pay earlier. Wi-Fi is paid. There are many children and foreigners from Europe in the hotel. There are two hotels nearby with loud music playing for up to 2-3 hours. It is difficult to fall asleep. There is a musty smell in the sauna complex, and ventilation is clearly required. Such a large hotel is not easy to maintain. Turkey is experiencing difficulties, inflation is high, and prices in the store are "biting." But it's generally good. The sea is beautiful, the water is clear, early in the morning you can see schools of Fry of different fish. Have a good rest, and prosperity and peace for the Turkish people.😊
A GOOD HOTEL WITH A POSITIVE ATTITUDE
I don't understand bad reviews , if people go deliberately looking for cons who always don't like something , so it's better to stay at home , I think so !!!
We liked the hotel, we arrived earlier than 14.00, but we were almost immediately checked in, waited for 30 minutes, we were told that the room would be prepared and you can check in!
The room is not large, but the furniture is modern , everything worked and plumbing including , cleaning was daily , we even refused several times because we were in the room at that time, towels were also changed systematically, in 11 days of arrival we changed bed linen 1 time, there was a lot of food , meat, chicken, turkey, beef , fish, snacks, salads , cheeses , vegetables and fruits , sweets as much as the whole table , we were always full , we always found something to eat , there is also a restaurant where pizza , spaghetti, burgers are prepared , they work according to the menu and also all inclusive , one free visit for a stay of over 7 days in a fish restaurant , alcohol is locally produced , we were fine , we drank beer , various cocktails .
Now to the cons, this location is located in the area , it takes 30 minutes by bus to Alanya , there is nowhere to go in the evening , some shops with a surcharge of 2-3 times , this turned out to be a minus for us , since we really like to go shopping after dinner , and there is nowhere to go , not so far Neva outlet , we went for variety , but there 's nothing to buy there , just old junk and fakes that pass off as originals .
Another disadvantage is the beach , the canopies are comfortable , it is not convenient to sunbathe , we had to put sun beds between the sun beds so that the sun gets in , the sunset is rocky , and there are a lot of people , we found a wild beach between the hotels , if you look at the sea , you need to go left, there is a sandy sunset , but lately there have been a lot of people coming there but it 's still more comfortable than on the main beach .
But if you go with a positive attitude, even these disadvantages are not so significant , we are happy with the rest! Maybe someday we will return to this hotel, I wish you prosperity and improvement!!!
So, hello everyone. The hotel is a big anthill, this is not a minus or a plus, for me personally. Let's start in order, I'll just describe my opinion. The rooms, the rest area at the reception and, in principle, the territory of the entire hotel is kept clean. The staff is really watching this. There are many different nationalities staying at the hotel, there were no problems during the entire 10 days. The territory of the hotel is small, for such a giant. 10 minutes walk to the sea, walking distance. Also, the blue tractor shuttle runs every 30 minutes))) one of the disadvantages for me personally is food. I have something to compare it with, I was in 3*, 4* and 5*. The nutrition here is solid 3. Already on the 4th day you are happy with French fries... Variety at the dining room level. During the entire rest period, there were meat dishes: fried chicken wings, overcooked cutlets, questionable meatballs. That's all... I was at 4 and everything was much more interesting there. And, as expected, the wife has food poisoning. Separately, a couple of lines about the restaurant (as stated at the time of booking, during the rest you can visit the fish restaurant by appointment. Located on the territory of the hotel) visited, the same food from the hotel restaurant is only served in portions and by the waiter). Oh yes, the most common question of our (Russian) tourists is alcohol. I drank and stayed alive))) the usual alcohol of Turkish hotels P.S. in general, we were satisfied with the rest!
The hotel is NOT 5 stars). They do NOT clean every day, as well as change linen, towels, and dental kits were not put at all at the entrance, there is no sewing kit. There is a lot of food, but it is specific, a lot of spices! Our bellies are not familiar))We didn't have much to eat, only rolls, grilled, and edible rice. There are no fresh juices, they are made dry and diluted with water, Wi-Fi is paid, tripe soups)))) there is one ironing room for the entire hotel with a working schedule from 9-16))) kick-ass. Public toilets don't have time to clean up. Turkish fries alcohol, their production, quality is below average, you can only drink EPHESUS beer. Cola fanta sprite is delicious. The beach is small, they don't clean it. Among the advantages: several pools, a water park- always clean. Next to the hotel there is a Migros store, as good as the Crossroads network (Pyaterochka), you can buy anything you want at an affordable price. The room was nice, the standard was a corner balcony, about 20 squares. An excellent mattress, a large bed, a refrigerator in the room at the entrance was with water, cola, fanta and juice, but they never refilled it again. Instant coffee with tea. The kettle is electric, but the simplest is the station. Nice view from the balcony to the pool. In general, they are not very good with the service, but such standards are possible. We rate a maximum of 4 stars.
We rested here in the first half of September 2024.
In principle, the hotel is not bad. But not 5*, that's for sure. . We had a good rest, trying not to pay attention to the nuances, so as not to spoil our rest. The animators are trying, but it's the same thing every day, without variety. Also for children. Nice pools with slides, there are bars near all the pools. Own pizzeria with delicious pizza. No coffee is brewed, only coffee machines. They said that in the lobby bar, which is inside the hotel, they cooked Turkish, but we never got there, there was no time and I didn't want to go specifically to the hotel.
The guys in the bars are friendly, you ask with a smile just to "make the most delicious cocktail" - they will make a cool one,
But.. the nuances begin upon arrival. Minus 1 star in the rating: Your ticket was activated when you boarded the plane. You arrive early in the morning, and check-in is at 14:00. That is, everything is paid for, but you cannot use anything before check-in. And here you have a choice, either sit in the lobby without food and water before check-in, or pay $ 50 at the reception (naturally without a receipt), and they put bracelets on you, you can have breakfast, and you will be checked in early to a "better room". It's really bad with cleaning and replenishing the necessary things, the hotel workers speak only Turkish, you can't say anything, you can't explain. They begin to fulfill their duties and provide comfort, which is written about in the hotel's advertisement, only if you complain to a particular guide. It's useless at the reception.
Manus is another 1 star. The hotel is aimed at Turks. About 60% of the vacationers were Turks. And they smoke everything, men and women, everywhere. And the food, accordingly, is more oriented towards them And European vacationers are all smokers without exception. There was nowhere to hide from the smoke. It was forbidden to smoke only in the restaurant, and on the terrace, by the pools - just a guard. Moreover, we were told that the hotel is family-run and non-smoking. In general, foreign tourists pay in full, and Turks rest at budget prices. That's the concept.
The beach by the sea has its own, with sun beds, within walking distance, there is also a bar.
The food is good, varied, but the focus is the same. There is little to choose from among the Turks' national food preferences. Yes, for other peoples, eggs or omelets or pancakes are served every morning. There are a lot of fresh greens, cucumbers and tomatoes, but mostly their sausages are everywhere, pickles, sweets, fried dough, French fries, rolls, bread. You can eat, no one has ever been hungry😊 But it turned out monotonously.
Despite these nuances, the rest was good, it flew by quickly. To say that I would like to come here again-no, I don't want to. There are better options.
When choosing this hotel, do not count on 5* service. This will not happen, but if you are determined to have a good rest, not paying attention to some moments, you will have a good rest, just like us.
Have a great holiday to everyone!
We were there at the end of September 2024, in principle we liked everything, the room was cleaned, towels were changed daily, animation all day, food all day, but of course monotonous, but nevertheless you can always find something to eat, water parks are quite good, entertainment in the evenings, discos, the only thing that Wi-Fi is paid, but you connect 1 you distribute the device from it to others, well, the lack of ice cream also spoils the picture, the safe is in the room, we paid for it and used it, and the neighbors just put the password in use, it's the usual standard one. The staff is Russian-speaking, everyone will always help. The sea is nearby, there are drinks and food on the sea. In principle, for such money it is a good option.
Hello! I want to share my impressions about my vacation in Turkey, which recently ended. The hotel left conflicting feelings. On the one hand, the appearance and positioning as a five-star hotel are impressive, but the service leaves much to be desired.
I'll start with the number. The walls were not washed, cleaning was not carried out for three days, the supply of tea and coffee was not replenished. Instead of a duvet cover, an old plaid was given out, which created a feeling of saving on the quality of service.
The restaurant was also disappointing. There were no tablecloths on the tables, only old napkins. There were not enough waiters, the tables were practically not cleaned, dirty plates had to be rearranged. The waiters did not offer drinks, and you had to stand in line for them. The bartender worked slowly.
The inside of the hotel was also not cleaned, there were greasy stains on the glass, walls, railings and tables. There was a heavy smell in the restaurant.
Another problem is the noise from the fan outside. He howled like a wolf around the clock, which prevented falling asleep and created discomfort.
The Wi-Fi in the hotel was paid and of poor quality.
The hotel staff seemed indifferent and tired to me. Perhaps the reason is the small salary.
A broken shelf was found in the steam room, about which you can get hurt on nails.
The indoor pool was closed for renovation, and the water in the outdoor pool is not heated, it is impossible to swim.
There is animation in the hotel, but maybe the guys are tired too.
The water park also disappointed — the pool is not heated.
Despite all the inconveniences, a vacation in Turkey in November can be pleasant. But if you want a quality vacation, it's better to choose another hotel.
However, there are also positive aspects. The hotel is beautiful, the views are especially impressive. Guest Relationship Manager Katerina tried to help tourists and deserves gratitude.
In general, a vacation in Turkey can be pleasant, but it is important to choose a hotel carefully.
I would like to express my deep gratitude to Ekaterina, the guest relations officer! Responsive , kind , helped throughout the rest , without her as without hands ! I helped my husband prepare a surprise for Dr. Ekaterina, thank you very much for everything ❤
I can't give you five stars. It's a little short. And so I really liked everything. The food is delicious, high-quality, there is a lot of it, just a lot and all day long. They cook something, pour it, you get tired of eating on the third day. You have to go to the beach, but this is not a problem at all, many people do not get out of the pool at all
A good hotel , they feed delicious food for their money, clean in a timely manner,linen is changed every day,there is a menu to choose from,there is something to do for both adults and children,newans alone with children will not be comfortable, everyone smokes where they want, as well as 5 hotel bold
A great hotel! There is nothing to reproach! The territory is well maintained! The hotel itself with carpets in the corridors! They clean every day, towels are changed too, the bed was made, etc. The food is beyond praise: the variety is off the scale, everything is fresh - cheeses, sauces, vegetables, herbs, cereals, meat, fish, sweets, fruits.... Any drinks at any time, alcoholic drinks at the pool bar, the rest at several counters throughout the hotel. The beach is clean, small, but there are enough sun loungers for everyone, and by the way, they are super soft. Beach towels are also changed. The staff is always helpful!
I advise everyone!
The food is super for all tastes, the fish is sweet, the meat is full, everything is fresh and varied. The service is excellent, the staff is excellent and responsive. The rooms are clean, cozy, modern, cleaning for 3 points you need to poke your nose. The beach is sand with pebbles, the entrance to the sea is terrible, but worse is the exit from it, there are sun beds for everyone, there is no garbage in order, the beach is not big, there is a restaurant from the hotel to eat burgers, wine and beer with French fries. Entertainment on the beach is $ 40 per person. The hotel has a small territory with nowhere to walk, little vegetation, a 5-point pool, 2-point animation sucks and the songs are old and very loud. The water park is small, clean and comfortable , there is trouble with places, there is no food and drinks, the transition to the water park from the hotel is underground, closed to left-wing people. I take off the ball for trying to charge extra fees for everything that is possible: wi-Fi $ 3 a day, check-in if you arrived before 14.00, it costs $ 10 an hour or wait for your time (do not use the restaurant and pool without a bracelet), safe for a fee, weigh luggage $ 1 one bag, lunch box is not allowed on the road.
What I didn't like.
Garbage on the beach.
Impolite staff. They do not greet, do not respond to greetings.
Upon arrival and check-in, we were not escorted to the room and were not shown its condition and equipment.
There were stale cut vegetables in the salad.
There are only 2 coffee machines in the large hall of the restaurant, and the coffee ran out very quickly, I did not have time to pour, I was late ...
I came across poorly washed coffee cups.
The napkins under the plates on the tables in the restaurant were stale.
We haven't changed the bed once in a week.
And the towels were changed only when we threw them on the floor in the shower.
The magnetic lock on the room door is broken.
I had to go to the reception and then wait for the master.
In the elevators, there were sloppy glue marks on the walls from the removed information leaflets.
Wi-Fi is paid in the arrival area of the hotel. It is also paid in the room and the administration raised the price for Wi-Fi 1.5 times 5 days after arrival. 1 day - 2.5 dollars or euros.
Instead of a blanket, there is a thin cotton bedspread. And in November, the nights were already cool, and we slept in sweatpants, socks and shirts.
The floors were made of ceramic tiles, and there was not even a small rug near the beds so as not to get up on the cold floor.
In the shower, they saw a cockroach on the floor.
On the beach in the surf zone, it was impossible to get out of the water without the risk of falling on the rocks and getting injured. And there was no lifeguard in sight. On the third day of their stay, after several people fell and hurt themselves on the rocks, the staff cleared the beach of large pebbles.
I will not go to this hotel anymore.
The worst buffet of those that should have been visited , the choice is about nothing . In Turkey, but without Turkish sweets - where has this been seen?)) the rooms are cleaned to the dump , replenishing with water and coffee only on request , when it was possible to catch the maid . Our room was near the elevator, all the delights of the elevator system and its sounds were especially audible at night, it was difficult for me, as a person with insensitive sleep. The staff is nice. In general, if you haven't been anywhere before, you will come in))But it's not even close to a top five
Animation sometimes did not give rest until 12 o'clock with the windows closed and on the top floor. Oh yes, if your check-out or check-in is earlier than check-in, do not waste money on the restaurant, pay $ 20 and we are glad to see you again, otherwise drive hungry. My advice to you is to go and eat brashly, we wore long blouses so that the absence of bracelets would not confuse anyone
I would like to write a review about the hotel regarding services, we rested in the middle of August 2024, we arrived at the hotel 1 hour earlier before check-in time. Upon check-in, we were told that if we want to check in earlier, then we need to pay $ 10, we refused and said that we would wait and asked if they had Wi-fi, to which we were told that Wi-Fi in the hotel is only paid and in order to buy it, you must first check into the room, respectively, there is no paid check-in even at the reception, for 2 people we paid $ 30 for 7 days + $ 10 check-in total, we were charged $ 40. Further, at the end of the rest, we rented the room, and we were told that now it is possible to stay only at the reception, restaurant services and everything else, including a swimming pool and so on for an additional fee, and 4.5 hours before departure to the airport. In general, in general, the hotel is not bad for a family vacation, a variety of food, etc., but they rip off the full program.
Good day, we decided to change the hotel, read the reviews, everything is fine , well, we arrived and from the very beginning we were not delighted with the angry staff. The cleaning is not what , everything is greasy in the elevator , the rooms are cleaned according to the mood, the food is not what , the territory is divided. To the sea either on foot or by tractor, you will not rest in the pool with children who are afraid of harsh noise, music is constantly playing and an uncle shouting into the microphone with an incomprehensible interpretation of what he wants, the sea did not like the backwater at all and all the oil and dirt is nailed to this backwater. It's a long way to stomp to the bus to go to kanakla or somewhere else. In the bars of which there are 2 in the evening , the queue is huge , the staff is just unhappy , but the bucks decide everything . good luck
It was a wonderful stay, the kitchen is super, the staff is friendly, the service is excellent, there are practically no stones on the beach. We were very satisfied!!!
We went on vacation in August 2024, on ultra all inclusive. It's just terrible. Wi-Fi is paid. The rooms on the ground floor are all smelly and dirty. The staff are louts. We checked in in the evening, we didn't have the strength to look at the room, after washing, we went to bed. In the morning, the suffocating smell of sewage appeared. The water on the floor goes very badly, the humidity in the bathroom becomes unbearable. We contacted the reception, we were offered another room, but again on the ground floor, or a room on the fifth floor with a dirty Jacuzzi with an additional fee of $ 150. We refused these options and offered to move us to at least the 3rd floor for a lower surcharge. The man behind the counter just snorted in displeasure and turned away! He refused my requests to come to our room and make sure of the nuances. They absolutely did not want to deal with us anymore. As for the minibar and other aspects of the provision of services. At the time of check-in, you will have water, juice, mineral water, fanta and Coca-Cola. You won't see anything else there during your entire vacation. The water must be replenished daily, as indicated in their list, but no one has ever put it in the refrigerator for all 9 days. We carried water ourselves from lunches and dinners. I also repeatedly had to go to the reception and ask for soap, shampoo and toilet paper, which must be added daily. There is no cleaning in the room, the cleaners come in once a day and the most they can do is make your bed. By the way, the linen is changed once a week, but for 9 days it has not been changed for us... Towels are changed every 2 days. The floors have also never been washed. No matter how much you complain at the reception, in response, see only the back of the staff. There are no special complaints about nutrition. Of the fruits, only watermelon, melon, apples, peaches and plums. Otherwise, the menu is quite varied. Tortillas (pita bread with cheese) are also prepared at the water park, you can also have a snack there. Those who live for more than a week can visit the fish restaurant for free 1 time. There is a bar on the beach where you can get a drink and a snack (fast food: French fries, onion rings, etc.). You will definitely not stay hungry. But check the plates and cutlery more carefully, they are just as bad at washing dishes. In general, guys, I do not recommend it. It is better to choose another place for a comfortable stay 😁
The only drawback is that the menu is not very diverse. There is a private beach with a kitchen, but you still need to walk to it or wait for the time to be taken from the hotel.
The guides are trying to sell expensive travel packages and send them to a pre-prepared store, which welcomes them with expensive prices) in general, a decent hotel for a family holiday.
We arrived in Turkey on 17.11 and stayed for 2 weeks. We were supposed to have a rest at Senza grand Santana, but they brought us to a closed hotel and told us to go to Senza The Inn Resort 50 km away and back. And how to go? By the way, we had our own transfer, we paid for it. Well, the driver was decent, and he took us back. They gave him an extra 50 km. for tea, a little. The transfer itself turned out to be not as expensive as in a Qiwi taxi. They didn't pay anything in advance. They gave me the money when we arrived. Alik (there is a transfer from him) has decent drivers – all doctors of sciences and good minibuses.
"Senza The Inn Resort", where we were brought, is probably better than "Senza grand Santana". There really was a lighted embankment, life. And here there's a village, blackness, no embankment, just an unlit path. But in other respects, the hotel is good. The food is varied, booze, sun beds, animation, a good gym, hammam, cleaning. It is easy to get to Alanya. It was November, and there were a lot of people. Everyone behaves culturally. But if they drink, they make noise. So, if you like silence, don't settle down with a view of the pool. The beach is clean, the water is clean. It takes 10 minutes to get there, but it's good, there are no extra people, they drink by the pool. I'm really writing about November, it's probably different here in summer. There were no incidents. They didn't take a paid safe, the Internet was on 2, and it was expensive at the reception. Near Migros and all kinds of shops, a music school.
We also took a transfer from Alik, and we got there quickly. What else can I say? Don't go with the old-style 100 and 50 dollars, we transported them and only in Russia I barely changed them. Buy lira in Russia. The Lira in Turkey is the very thing.
I didn't see Alik before I left, but I wanted to thank him for handling difficult transfer situations. I recommend it, especially if you don't speak Turkish. I had no problems with him, everything was clear, both with transfers and with excursions.
Hello.
I'll start with the cons; We arrived at six in the morning, with a small grandson (7 months old), very dishonest employees turned out to be at the reception.
When I asked them to give us at least bracelets before check-in, they ignored all my arguments, I just turned 50 on the day of check-in, but it was a weak argument.
As a result, we sat until nine o'clock, until Katerina came, with whom we managed to talk at least humanely.
She explained to us that they could check us in if we paid an additional $40!!!!!😡😡😡😡
But since we have a small child, we had to pay.WiFi is paid, safe is paid,scales are paid.
We took an excursion "Dream of Alanya", I will warn you right away, do not take it, we studied terribly.
Especially the first half of it, until they found themselves in the wine cellar😉
On the plus side; You are not in danger of hunger, cleaning the room every day, although it goes without saying it should be, after all, five stars.
Aah, the beach is not very good, especially going into the sea.
In short, the second time, I would not go there.
We had a rest in July 2023. I liked the hotel, there are many options to eat, a great restaurant on the 1st floor: pizza, burgers, pasta. They cook great! The main restaurant has a variety of delicious desserts. The animation is unobtrusive. A great water park for both children and adults, the children were delighted (7 and 18 years old) . The only negative is the tour operator Biblio-Globus, disappointed with the organization, changed flights and just 2 days disappeared from our vacation, but this has nothing to do with the hotel.
A budget great five for your money.
Nice family hotel! For $ 20 we settled on a high floor with a sea view. The beach is the 2nd line. There is a shuttle service every 30 minutes. The water park, children's animation, food - everything is in order, everything is clean. Cons - wi-fi is only paid, the territory is small and the adult animation is weak. I Put A Budget 5*.
Great hotel. Friendly staff, nice rooms and excellent room cleaning. The food in the restaurant is varied and delicious, there is a mini water park and a large main pool. A great beach by the sea. I recommend it to everyone!!!
1) The hotel, the jokes began immediately upon arrival, at the reception they offered to check in ahead of time for a modest $ 30, after hearing a refusal, they offered the best room for $ 20, brand new with a balcony (although as it turned out they all had balconies). In fact, the room is tired, the walls are all scratched, it stank terribly of sewage (and at all), there is no sound insulation at all, with the door closed, the only difference is that the wind does not blow.
The floors didn't seem to have been washed or vacuumed at all.
2) Food. The choice is disgusting, everything is tasteless, greasy, the assortment of fruits is just no and everything is not tasty. As a result, on the 3rd day I had to buy a remedy for heartburn, the staff had nothing, and the doctor does not stay at the hotel all the time.
3) Drinks, the hotel was positioned as a UAI, which should include foreign drinks, in fact they are for money, only local swill is free, which is even difficult to call alcohol.
4) The staff, at first, serves quickly and efficiently, then they pretend as if they do not exist. Russian is spoken disgustingly.
5) The beach is dirty, the sun beds all seem to have survived more than one war, the beach bar can only pamper you with another disgusting fast food and drinks of the same taste.
6) Swimming pools, the water is not heated, but at least it is clean.
As a result, the hotel is worthless, it does not pull at 5 stars in any way, with a stretch of 4 at most, and certainly not UAI.
Terrible hotel!
Two stars and three in the sky!
If you want to come back hungry, thin and in a sad mood, come here!
I don't understand people who put above three))It's suspicious.
We traveled with our family to a lot of hotels in Turkey from top premium to simpler hotels ... but this is just a misunderstanding!
The beach is dirty and there are few places, there is practically no territory in the hotel, the food is not tasty, the desserts are disgusting, the fruits are sour, the rooms smell and are very noisy, the staff is rude, they want to heat everywhere!
They even charge money from Wi-Fi and a safe in the room, but they could take care of normal pillowcases!
Extremely unpleasant service!
There is no animation, entertain yourself)
In general, if you don't like someone, you can safely recommend this exclusive))
If you want to spoil your vacation, come here. If you want adventures with cockroaches and music that beats from 9 a.m. to 23 p.m. without a break, choose this hotel. Cleaning and service at 0. You will find: garbage from previous owners, sand on the floor immediately after cleaning, dust on the balcony and dirt in the bathroom. If you need an air conditioner, you will have to go to the reception for two days and beg for it to be fixed. The food is too salty and too much seasoning. There is nothing to feed the child except French fries. Soups in the best Turkish traditions are impossible to eat. You can wait 5 minutes for the elevator if you live at least on the 3rd floor. If I walked alone, then walk around the elevator with the child. At check-out, you will have to pay money to stay at the hotel for 2 hours. That's what I understand - 5 stars ultra. 👍
The hotel is beautiful from the outside, beautiful pools, but they are of no use, they are icy, as if you are swimming in a spring, you never managed to swim in it. We were put in a dirty room with dirty pads on the floor, someone else's hair and dirty towels, but our guide promptly decided everything the next day. However, the smell of sewage throughout the room, a broken hair dryer and sometimes missing hot water has not been canceled, as well as an open balcony door, take what you want.
The food was good, the bar can be considered non-alcoholic, since I do not know how much to drink to get at least a little in my head.
The waiters are wonderful, everyone's work is prompt, a very nice guard.
Paid Wi-Fi, but I think it doesn't matter.
Most of all, it's a shame for the pool and the stench in the room, and I also had to live in the mud for the night.
We had a rest at this hotel. In early May 2024. I liked everything, there wasn't always enough fish. We cleaned on our floor, room 2 was 20-47, if I'm not mistaken, everything was great, we cleaned every day, well, everything was reported to the shampoos, the animation was weak, it could only be the beginning of the season, let's say that's why we rested. I liked it, I probably would have returned again, but I didn't like that there is no normal beach, it is divided by a slash, but you can literally walk 100 meters to the right and there is another beach, the sand is very fine. Of course, it would be great for small children, that is, you don't worry, but the only thing is that you are unlikely to take the sunbeds of someone else's hotel. I still put a five, I would have returned here if there had been an adequate price, that's all right, normal adequate staff, that's all I liked.
We rested at the hotel in the middle of May. This is not the first time in the hotel.
The rooms are clean and cozy. We had a wonderful view of the pool and the sea.
The room has various hygiene products, slippers, kettle, tea, coffee, cups, mini bar is filled on the first day.
They cleaned well, towels and pastel linen were changed on time. The restaurant is cleaned quickly and well. There are no dirty tables. So they will also help to bring tea with a smile, for example)))
The choice of food is large. Vegetables, meat, fish, etc. A huge selection of sweets.
The hotel staff is very helpful and friendly.
The staff at the reception is excellent, always friendly, very quick to help solve problems and answer all questions. And everyone is always smiling. Well done Resul, Fevzi, Tolga, Elif, Macit, Baran, Emrah,!!!
Special thanks to the animation team!!!!!! You guys are doing great, Ali, Aytash, the main animator Ercan and the girls! Pool games, darts, shooting, evening shows, disco. Thank you for your time!
The rest turned out to be good!
