This is the second time we have stayed at this hotel, a few years ago. The hotel did not get worse in terms of service. Replaced plumbing in the rooms, including new bathtubs. Cameras have been installed in the corridors. Mattresses have been replaced. The TV is old and barely shows. Linen is clean. There is cleaning. Soap dispensers. The paper is good enough. The rooms have wooden shutters instead of windows. It is impossible to open the windows in the evening, there are no nets - mosquitoes fly. Safe at the reception paid (20 pounds per day). The hotel has a farm with goats and green monkeys. Children are interested, but the smell in the hotel is appropriate. Air conditioners in the rooms in winter and spring work only as fans, so the rooms are damp and cold. They took dichlorvos from mosquitoes, it helped a lot. The equipment of the room is ordinary, only the beds are on stone bases. There are boards under the mattresses. Most of the rooms do not have balconies. The water in the shower was summer, there was always.
Nutrition is poor: in the morning - vegetables, scrambled eggs, boiled egg on request, stale rolls, tea, coffee. In the evening - two soups, stewed potatoes, pasta in tomato sauce, beans in tomato, stewed vegetables, rice, two soups, pita bread. Fruit - thinly sliced ​ ​ oranges. At the beginning of dinner, the queue disperses in half an hour. The hotel was full, filled for 90%. Animation active in the evening, sometimes very loud. In general, the architecture of the hotel is reminiscent of an Egyptian village. The only thing that annoys is crafts made from empty bottles, burst balloons and tinsel on every corner.


The pool is clean but cold in March. Pool chairs are good. Beach towels are issued without cards, by appointment. From the hotel carry on two beaches. A blue minibus, hired by the hotel, arrives. They are taken free of charge to the beaches of Hala (in a sandy bay) and Fanara (next to Jaz Fanara). The beaches are small, there are many hotels on Fanara, but there is no discomfort. They take you every other day to each beach, the bus is at 9 am and at 9.30, back at 13. Entrance to the beaches is free.
Italians, British, Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians have a rest in the hotel. There were even families with children. We did not meet dissatisfied people. The hotel is small but sometimes comes at a good price. We were, in principle, satisfied with everything. We rested for $ 350 for two on half board, 11 nights with a flight from Minsk. We won't go to this hotel for the price.

The atmosphere in the hotel is calm. Check in immediately upon arrival. Extension of departure for three hours 100 pounds (about $ 7). Weather in early March +26...+28 °C, water +22 °C. The evening is cool and windy. The rest is comfortable for both sunbathing and excursions.
