In the summer, we spent an unforgettable 10 days of rest at the Fairy Tale base, the building is new, all conditions are in the room, air conditioning, TV, refrigerator. meals in the dining room breakfast and lunch are included in the ticket price, we ordered dinner in advance. The beach is nearby, the water is like fresh milk. The base is clean. The staff is super.
The "Fairy Tale" was chosen as a stopover for exploring Lake Balkhash. The choice turned out to be successful. Advantages: polite and competent staff, (special thanks to Nursultan), well-groomed territory, buildings made of wooden log cabins, its own beach. The room has a water heater, refrigerator, air conditioning and a shower stall, toilet... The disadvantage is poor sound insulation
In general, the area itself is not bad, there are amenities, the room has a refrigerator, air conditioning, shower, toilet, kettle, TV, there is a lot of space inside the room, spacious, parking is large on 2 sides, the beach is 2 minutes walk from the room, there are sun beds, there is a bar but there is not much choice, ice cream, drinks cola dizzy water, beer polar bear, vodka, there is a sauna on site, dining room, gazebos
the beach is rocks and sand, in principle, as everywhere else in the recreation areas in Balkhash
prices are expensive, of course, 48,000 per day, with breakfast, 3+1 people went, the barbecue area at the entrance is not equipped, there is another barbecue area but it is far from our building, so I had to fry closer to myself, the administration spoils everything the impression of rest, a rude girl, does not listen to anything, talks in the trash, of course, the staff is not really visible there, they gave us the key, they also wanted to take the certificate as collateral, we started asking why and why, she said then give us the money as collateral, but in the end she just gave us the room key without taking anything as collateral and we went to the room
they asked if it was possible to extend the room for a couple of hours if suddenly no one was on the reservation, she started shouting something again, talking rudely, although we were not going to sit there for free, we would have paid extra, but we could not even clearly and understandably say something, only rudeness
The recreation area is good. The rooms are clean, cozy, everything is there: toilet, shower, air conditioning, small refrigerator. The beach is just outside the territory-it is very convenient. The beach is clean and well maintained. First the rocks, then the sand. Breakfast is included in the price. You can also have lunch and dinner in the dining room, but for a fee. Lunch cost 16,000 tenge for 5 people: second course, salad and compote. I think it's expensive. And besides the barbecue area, there is nowhere else to cook. For this, a minus star.
In August 2023, we rested for 5 days at the base. I liked everything, the houses are wooden, air conditioning, dining room, bar, the beach is clean, they keep it clean, the beach itself is very convenient next to the apartment. The staff is polite, the territory is tidy and clean. I recommend.
The territory of the recreation area is excellent! The rooms in the new building are cozy and clean. The room has air conditioning, refrigerator, wardrobe, desk, TV. Our room had a triple double bed, a single bed and an armchair, which can also accommodate 4 people. Our room cost 36,000 tenge on weekdays and 42,000 tenge on weekends. Breakfast is included in the price. The prices in the dining room are horse, let's say okroshka costs 1800, pilaf 2200.
A big minus is no Wi-Fi, the road to the village of Tarangalyk is ideal, but there is a 2 km grader to the recreation area.
A great place to relax!there is a private beach, a large territory, a dining room and entertainment for children. The rooms are fresh. The staff is very sincere)
Everything is very untidy, money is not invested in the rooms, even a penny shabby faucet on the sink for some reason does not bother anyone, not to mention the rusty shower tray. There is no sound insulation at all. The music is monotonous, the food is expensive. And the door in the dining room needs to be oiled, it creaks very much in the morning.
He did not live at the hotel, but visited a cafe. I liked the cafe. The price of the dishes is average, in principle everything is delicious, like a kaganate.
Everything is fine, and the rooms and entertainment for children have their own cafe. The beach is its own, but its huge disadvantage is that it is pebbly. I would even call it crushed stone, and the entrance to the water too. And be ready to walk on the stones for 20 meters. So either swim in shoes, or go to a public beach where the sand and entrance are sandy.
We were in a Fairy Tale five years ago. Back then, we cooked our own food, there was a kettle in the room. This time they said that the kettle was not allowed. Now the package includes breakfast, it is convenient and delicious, the portions are good. You can also have lunch and dinner, the prices are reasonable. The service is lame, of course, to book a room, you need to wait for a response all day, you need
to ask for towels yourself and take toilet paper with you, otherwise after the one that is offered, you can return home with injuries of a soft spot🤪 And we also arrived on the weekend in the evening, we paid for the day in full, but they didn't even give us a light dinner after the trip. An unpleasant and ill-conceived moment. We are from the train, if we arrived in the morning, we would have to provide breakfast, and since the train is in the evening, we could feed dinner, especially with the children.
We arrived at 6 a.m., the gates were opened, we were launched, we were settled at 9.00, for which thank you very much! The maid girls are great, we ask you to clean up, we always cleaned up. That's where the advantages ended.
The audibility in the rooms is of course very strong from all sides. For breakfast, either scrambled eggs or porridge, bauyrsak or bread and tea, margarine instead of butter, the rest is paid; lunch for two 6600 is half a portion of borscht, meat with rice, 1 bread and tea, very expensive, there is no menu with prices and output of dishes, you do not know what you are paying for. Mostly people in cars with their provisions, tiles and kettles, there is a barbecue.
On the shore at the water's edge and 5 meters into the water are sharp stones the size of a child's palm, so take aquashoos with you, I was never able to swim because of the sharp stones, they write that the beach is sandy, yes the beach is sandy, but the water washed these stones, so the rest is spoiled
We were passing by, we wanted to stop for the night. They didn't let me in. Check-in only in the morning. We drove past and spent the night on the shore of Balkhash!! In general, I even enjoyed spending this thunderstorm watching in the front rows!
The rooms are clean. The breakfasts are not bad
The only disadvantage is that there is no Wi-Fi for guests. Only at the administration building, it's bad for guests without a local connection.
A good base, the feeling of a Soviet boarding house. The food is good, the coast is normal, sun beds, a bar, rooms made of pine log. No frills, it's okay to rest for a couple of days
A holiday home for three, then there is no water, there is no medical point, there is not even a first aid kit 🤦♂️ There is an air conditioner, but there is no remote control 🤷♂️ there is a remote control from the TV, but there is no TV 😆 The beach is clean, the staff is polite, but the administrator is incompetent!!!
A convenient place. Acceptable living conditions. The proximity of the beach, just a few meters from the rooms. At the time of the visit, there was a large construction site. An expensive dining room.
Everything is cool, location, Services, hotel. The rooms are clean and cozy, the air conditioner, refrigerator, shower are all in acceptable condition.
I really liked the rooms. The advantage is also that the zone is located right off the coast of Balkhash!!! But the prices in the dining room were upset, although the food is delicious!
The rooms are dark, there is no housekeeping, the prices in the dining room are overpriced, where have you seen for a mug of compote for 300 tenge? The bathroom amenities are simply not thought out, There is not a single towel hook
The breakfast is terrible, the staff in the dining room is rude, there is no service and there is no politeness. The coast is very rocky. The room is dark and dirty.
