We had a rest with a child from August 11 to 22, 2024. It's not all that scary. A few rooms after renovation, we had no fresh repairs, but quite normal. Bathroom, conder, you. Two days later they brought a mini-bar. They washed and changed the linen. The food is normal. No frills. Drinks are cola, fanta, sprite always. A bar on the beach. Problems with the elevator, lack of staff, old carpet that spoils the view in the lobby... There are not enough plates, because of this there are queues in the dining room. Of course, the guests still take them to the room and do not bring them back. A gorgeous beach, 7 minutes on foot without hurrying... In general, you can live. But not for long and not expensive
Review of the stay at the Side Orange Paradise Hotel (02.09 - 08.09)
Unfortunately, our stay at this hotel turned into a real nightmare. Let's start from the beginning — check-in. We arrived at night, and the young man at the reception, instead of helping, just sent us to the 5th floor with suitcases. The elevator wasn't working, and it didn't seem like it was going to work during our entire stay. We were not even offered a bottle of water, and the background information about breakfasts and lunches was completely missing (I found the information on old reviews).
When we finally got to the room, horror awaited us. An old, dirty room with a bathroom that looked like something out of a horror movie — mold everywhere! We asked for room improvement, but were refused. There are air conditioners only in the rooms, and none in the rest of the hotel. Wi-Fi is paid and is not cheap at all.
The impression was that the hotel had not been cleaned for several years. The carpet was covered with old dried stains, in places it was not there at all, and glasses and garbage were scattered everywhere.
As for nutrition, this is a separate story. If you have children, I strongly do not recommend this hotel. The main course is potatoes in three versions and some chicken giblets. There were almost no vegetables, and only watermelon from fruits. The tea station was so dirty that I didn't even dare pour myself a cup of tea. The alcohol was just terrible.
The pool was also not happy: muddy and dirty water, glasses and bottles were lying around. The beach, which the staff had to take care of, resembled a garbage dump — garbage is everywhere. The hotel is located on the second coastline, and the beach can only be reached via the road without a pedestrian crossing. The shuttle stopped running at 15:30.
And the worst thing is that half of the vacationers were poisoned by water from the pool. People were throwing up right on the beach and in the hotel lobby, an ambulance came and took people to the hospital!
As a result, we wanted to save money, but we got the worst vacation of our lives. I strongly do not recommend choosing this hotel!
Side orange paradise hotel.
We arrived at this hotel in late August and early September 2024.
I'll start with the most important food, it's enough, but it's impossible to eat meat (only chicken), fish, stewed vegetables, fried and everything hot is made so that it's impossible to eat....There are queues of 40 minutes before lunch, dinner, plates, spoons, places, not enough, only watermelon and melon from fruits, it is possible to eat only breakfast food.. The main% of tourists staying at the hotel are Turkish families, there are very few Russians. There was also a case when the vacationing Turks of the same hotel, seeing Russians in you, passing by, shouted in a dissatisfied, indignant tone: Rush? Rasha, raaasha!???? In short, we are not happy to see you if you are from Rush.
Also, if the attitude was excellent before, now they look askance...
About the pool: if you are not with children in any case, do not approach it, there is no disinfection, rotovirus begins in children right without leaving the pool, in the truest sense of the word: they vomit right next to the pool ...
The room was good. Comfort. The rooms are not cleaned, the towel is not changed, you come up with a trolley, you change the towel, the cleaning does not reach the room. The elevators don't work, and if it suddenly works, you will definitely get stuck. We walked /descended to the 5th floor on foot.
The beach is dirty, the Turks eat there, they throw plates, burgers, cups there.. The beach is sandy, the water is clean,
I can give the staff 5 only to the reception. The girl is young and her partner is a man, responsive, friendly.
Internet is paid for 1 day 3 euros.
In shops, in markets, there is no difference between euros or Dollars for them. There is no recalculation, 5 € = 5$.
It's up to you to decide whether to go or not) everyone has a wonderful, unforgettable vacation (in the good sense of the word))) 😎👍🏻
