We are happy with our vacation, thank you very much to the employee Olga and Natasha from the SPA.
2. Beach: Sandy + Pebble. Good gentle entry. The beach is from the hotel, there are soft drinks. New sunbeds interspersed with old ones. Straw umbrellas are beautifully decorated. There are a lot of them on the beach, there are always free ones. The road to the beach is long 10-15 minutes, but there are benches along the road. Beach towels provided!
3. Check-in at 14:00. We arrived early in the morning. We waited a long time, but they immediately gave good rooms with mountain views, 2nd floor. The stairs are dangerous, but there is an elevator. No surcharges. The room is very modern but dirty. The bed is white. Bed and towels smell a bit of bleach (we even liked it). There is a TV, refrigerator and air conditioning. All equipment is working properly. No kettle or safe.
4. Territory of the hotel: small, but very cozy. Divided into zones. Lots of beautiful vegetation.
5. Food. Breakfast: boiled eggs, fried outside.
Cheese and cheese 4 types. Olives and olives. Bakery. Jam 6 types, waffle cups for it. Flakes are different, milk. Sausage by the standards of Turkey - DELICIOUS! Greens, fruits, vegetables. Lunch: there is always soup. They bake bread for you. Salads, sliced separate table. Dinner: similar to lunch, grill is added. There is always chicken and fish. Sometimes duck, turkey and lamb. From fruits: apples, watermelon, oranges, lemons. Sometimes melon. There is a night soup.
6. Drinks are different all day long. We do not drink alcohol.
7. Swimming pool 1 large and small for children. Chlorine. We did not swim, only the sea. Seemingly normal.
8. Animation is not bad. Wi-Fi is paid. 10.7 days
9. Service: a large number of people in the hotel, the staff is always busy. They try to please everyone. Sometimes they don't make it.
I am in Turkey 15 times. After the pandemic, hotels are losing a lot and do not live up to their stars. Prices have risen. We bought this hotel at the price of a budget 4k. For such a price, you can close your eyes to a lot.
Cons: lack of people to clean the territory and rooms. The floor in the dining room is very slippery. I want more meat. On the beach, the drink machine is electric, not much, but unpleasant. The beach is far away.
2. Conders do not work, you too, the water in the pool is cloudy)
3. The staff, to put it mildly, constantly wants to send "far away", at least the look indicates this)
Conclusion: if you want to spend money like on 5k, and find yourself in barely 3k, then this is the hotel for you. Vacationers every day at the reception swear at the staff, this is a complete ahtung !!!!! !
This is definitely not a 5, but if you caught a super low price, like us, then complaining is simply a sin.
Check-in: arrived at the hotel at 7 am. There was some discrepancy when booking (this is not the fault of the hotel, so no complaints). We were immediately offered to leave our things in the lobby and go to the restaurant to have breakfast and see the territory.
At 10 am we were already in the room.
Number: 4th floor, room 4144.
The room is clean and tidy. The bed is perfect. There is a small fridge, no mini-bar, no bottled water in the room. Safe and Wi-Fi for a fee. $1 per day.
Cleaning is a real problem. In principle, as with cleanliness throughout the hotel. This is the main drawback that left not a good impression. Somehow everything is not up to the end, I see that the staff walks all day, cleans something, with rags, scrubbers BUT !! ! stains on bar walls, elevator walls, table legs, etc. It catches the eye. Unpleasant.
The condition of the hotel is generally good. There are two elevators (4-storey building).
Sauna - free only from 12 to 14.
There is no animation. Yoga/aqua aerobics around 10am in the pool. In the evening they turn on music, like karaoke 1 song -1 dollar.
Food is all good. Yes, the choice is not crazy, but everything is delicious, there is enough food. Every evening grill fish or meat, vegetables. From fruits watermelon, melon, plums, oranges, apples, grapes.
As for alcohol, I didn't even expect it. Not bad enough. They make cocktails. Gin, vodka, whiskey, many different liqueurs/cocktail toppings.
All in paper cups.
Coffee is a different story. Only coffee machine with powdered coffee. And that's it. About custard and do not dream.
To the beach 10 min walk. There is no transfer. Your own beach. The entrance to the sea is sand + pebbles, no corals are needed. Very nice big canopy. The sun loungers are dirty. There are no mattresses. There is a type of bar on the beach, but there is no alcohol there, there is a small machine with powdered drinks cherry, pineapple, just water. From 14 to 16 - snack bar - it's bread + sausage + cucumber.
Watermelon melon.
The area is not big. But, plus the hotel - to the very center of Kemer (mosque) 10 minutes walk. In the evening you can walk, there are a huge number of shops, cafes.
You can rent a motor scooter for three places for $ 5 / hour. Very popular there.
Or rent a car 40 dollars / day.
Big bazaars come to Kemer on Mondays (food) and Thursdays (things). They are worth a visit!! ! We only got there on a Monday. You can really bargain there.
In general, the impression of the hotel:
This is a solid 4. You can go there, but with the understanding that there are questions about cleanliness, and no one will run to blow dust off you. Although from morning to evening the manager runs around the hotel (a cheerful, bald, tight guy of about 30), communicates with guests, asks if everything is OK, helps to resolve issues.
He communicates well in Russian / English, he is also a guy who meets guests after settling and tells what is where and at the reception. Waiters, bartenders do not know either language, but they are very positive, they smile, they work smartly.
We didn't hang out at the hotel all day. We took two excursions for the whole day, went to the market on Monday (a half-day trip, no less)) and of course the sea.
Choice. We were looking for an urgent trip and the environment of all available hotels in the travel company was offered by Armir. I will tell frankly - it was tempting that 5 *. The price was not very low ~ $ 900 for two for 6 nights, base AI.
Hotel. It looks pretty much nothing, good area, renovated.
It is clear that the owner cares about the well-being of guests, because he constantly went and checked to see if everything was working well.
Number. Our room was 2125. When we came in, we were disappointed, because some moments in the room were just scary (I don't know if it's a fungus or just from the moisture due to the peculiarity of the shower).
We had a room with a terrace overlooking the pool. It looked beautiful.
The plus is that the beds were new, very comfortable. The room has a TV, wardrobe. Cleaned daily and without tips.
Food. Very tasty, not much variety. But on the evening of the night, grilled dishes were prepared. Pleats in the hotel could be from 7.30 to 00.00. There was meat and fish. Lots of fruit, delicious watermelon.
Internet. Salary! ! ! !!
And this is extremely unfair. We went to many 5 * hotels, but this is the first time we saw it. The price of each device for 7 days is $ 10. That is, my husband and I had to pay $ 40 for two phones and computers, because we work remotely. Good earnings, right?
Sea. To go to the sea not declared 150-200 m. And 800 meters so, that is approximately 15 minutes in slow motion.
The beach is not too cared for, sunbeds are free. On the beach from the bar - only a machine that dispenses sweet juices of three kinds and water. At 12.00 workers made burgers or pizza. And it was quite tasty.
Entertainment. We traveled through Maxwell, well organized, close to the hotel.
Right behind the hotel is an arena garden, which fell on unripe oranges, but incredibly beautiful.
The hotel has a playground, swimming pools (large and children's), a stage where there were night animations. They lasted until 00.00, and then everyone could sleep peacefully.
In general - not bad.
But with such opportunities it could have been much better.
The hotel area is small. The hotel itself consists of 4 floors. There are two lifts.
Wi-fi and safe for a fee. Hamam is offered for $20. Around the corner is $10.
We arrived at the hotel at 6 in the morning, they said that there were no rooms, that we had to wait until 14:00. They immediately put on bracelets and sent them to walk around the territory and wait for breakfast. After breakfast, we lay in the lobby and most likely they have already run out of patience that we all hang out there, and already at 9:30 a room was found. Settled. I got a room with a view of the mountains (it's good that it's not with a view of the pool, in the evening when something is grilled, then all the smoke goes to the balconies overlooking the pool). By the way, the rooms that overlook the mountains, it is very quiet there. But the hotel rooms are in poor condition. The plumbing is in need of repair. There are problems with cleaning the room, you have to go to the reception yourself and ask persistently to clean the room.
There is no iron in the room (at the reception they will also refuse you, they will say that this hotel does not have an iron (here go to the hotel informant and he will give it to you)), there is no kettle, etc. There is air conditioning, refrigerator. Tv.
The bathroom has a hairdryer, shampoo, shower gel.
Nutrition:
Breakfast:
Breakfast starts at 7:30. The breakfast sucks, really. Every morning is the same. Sometimes there are pancakes.
Very few people go for breakfast.
Dinner:
Starts at 12:30. But lunch is tastier than breakfast, but you will not be pampered with assortment and variety (rice, pasta, chicken and salads (this is every day at lunch)), but terrible queues (you will stand in line for 20-40 minutes).
Dinner :
At 19:00. Everything is really cool here. Grilled (different types of fish, chicken, vegetables) and everything is very tasty. True, if you are not a Turk or a Turkish woman, then you will have to stand in a huge queue (30-60 minutes) to get your pieces of meat (Turks and Turkish women climb out of line and they immediately get the best of everything).
Bar:
Local alcohol, plastic glasses. The bar closes at 23:00.
An important point (the hotel has disgusting coffee (their powder), it is impossible to drink. Our soluble one turns out to be very personal. Therefore, take it with you.
Distance from the sea:
Get ready that you will need to walk somewhere 1 km.
Other:
The hotel has its own beach, and there is a bar that will pour you wonderful vitamin drinks (yupi).
The center of Kemer is about 3 km away. Taxis are available near the hotel. The cost depends on your ability to bargain.
The hotel smokes stupidly everywhere, you dine in the dining room, you can smoke near you and everything is fine.
For 7 nights, the maximum that this hotel deserves is $500 for two. For this money, you can close your eyes to many things.
The reception does not solve anything, they just pretend that they are doing something. It is better to contact the manager or the informant of the hotel immediately. The guys will help you right away.
Huge minus of the hotel:
The hotel is very, very crowded, at lunch and dinner there is nowhere for people to sit down and eat. All tables are occupied. They stand over their heads with trays and wait for someone to finish eating, and this is very infuriating. Because you are constantly rushed. Because of this, already on the 3rd day I wanted to leave this hotel.
The contingent of the hotel is 50% Russia, 20% Ukraine, 20% Turkey, 10% Moldova and Kazakhstan.
Results:
For 7 days the price of this hotel is $500-600.
For a budget hotel, the food is delicious.
Far from the sea, keep that in mind.
Huge lines for food.
Will I return to this hotel again? Not!
Will I recommend it to my friends? Not!
P. S. A lot of tourists bought tours to this hotel from $ 1200-1800 and over people are very disappointed with the queues and food. For such money in neighboring hotels every evening seafood.
Yes, this is not the five that happens in Rixos and Hilton, but you also need to include logic and understand exactly how much you paid for this ticket.
That is why I can recommend this hotel as a budget five!
The food is very good and always fresh. They fed 5 times a day. That is, between lunch and dinner there were 2 more meals. At will, of course. We had no problems with stomachs during this wonderful week of rest.
Naturally, a slide worked in the pool at certain hours, which brought additional pleasure to everyone.
The moment that upset me a little was the weak air conditioner, which did not pull out the heat of 44 degrees in July, so it was cut off. You can ask to repair, if it does not help, then you will be moved to another room.
These are all such trifles, compared with the beauty around and the opportunity to enjoy a pleasant stay. Relax and you won't regret it.
