Loved the hotel, nice clean room, comfortable bed. Booked shortly before the trip, but managed to "catch" a discount. The program was general health, every day I drank mineral water, went to exercise therapy. Tasty food.

To the sea, of course, inconvenient to get. But it makes up for it with a gorgeous pool. And also a very beautiful view, as the sanatorium is on a hill. And the hotel itself is beautiful.
At the end of October it is not as hot as in summer, but still not bad. Plus, there are few people. The first time I went in the "off season" and was surprised at how much quieter, calmer and more comfortable than in the summer months.
I can recommend the hotel.

We came on the recommendation of a work colleague and did not regret it. We did not expect such service from a Russian holiday. The food is beyond praise. The hotel is new, clean and comfortable rooms, as well as the whole area. The beach is pebbly, requires special shoes. 7-10 minutes walk to the beach, back up the hill.

The hotel is new, clean and comfortable rooms, as well as the whole area. The beach is pebbly, requires special shoes. 7-10 minutes walk to the beach, back up the hill. Sun loungers and umbrellas are always available. The disadvantage of the beach is shading after 15 hours (September m-ts) due to the mountainous terrain and the presence of tall buildings. Most of the holidaymakers prefer swimming pools from lunch; there are three modernly equipped swimming pools on the territory of the hotel. All staff are polite and responsive. Live music almost every evening. After 22 pm the area is quiet. My birthday coincided with a holiday at the Iva Maria Hotel. I was pleasantly surprised with a bottle of champagne and a cake donated from the hotel.

I do not recommend. The hotel is not able to provide the declared quality of accommodation. On all promotional photos of the hotel, images of the rooms of the "new building" of 1.2, 3 floors are modestly omitted, i. e. , which fall under the category of junior suite relaxation. So in order: 1) The new building is located on the border of the territory of the complex, under the balconies of the new building there is a footpath for residents of higher-lying houses and hotels.

So in order:
1) The new building is located on the border of the territory of the complex, under the balconies of the new building there is a footpath for residents of higher-lying houses and hotels.
2) Architecturally make a canopy over the 3rd floor, this is the "floor" of the site on which the pools, restaurant, barbecue, etc. are located. (what we see on the promotional photos of the hotel), i. е. under the visor accumulates all the dirt and sound from:
- passing cars;
- chemical smell to sore throat from either dry cleaning or laundry located on the 1st floor;
- from the bakery located on the ground floor, guests of the bakery drinking not only tea;
- aromas of a garbage truck, whose body is higher than the railing of the balcony of rooms on the 2nd floor;
And in the whole building there is a smell of either a pharmacy or a spa salon.
Immediately under the windows, cars will turn around and park not only for the guests of the IvaMaria Hotel, but also for the guests of the BlueMarine Hotel and other nearby hotels. Also, all night long you will hear the loading and unloading of cars of arriving and departing guests.
Equipped closed parking for 10-15 places, the rest are parked at a neighboring construction site.
For the rest of the service:
- buffet, maybe it is buffet, but with a very developed imagination (4 years ago, when there was no buffet yet, the quality of food was much higher);
- Wi-Fi in the room, this is a mockery, you can’t even read the mail, downloading 0.6 MBot, downloading 2.1 MBot.
I don’t even want to describe further, drunken guests appeared on the territory, the pools were all “mixed up”, it used to be strictly - for children and for adults, now kids are everywhere.

To be honest, the hotel itself is good, but it's impossible to relax separately from the road to the sea, from the narrow pebble strip, on which everyone who lives in neighboring hotels has accumulated! There are three swimming pools, funny animation for children, but for adults only music and then not every evening.

There are three swimming pools, funny animation for children, but for adults only music and then not every evening. In general, there is nowhere to walk, yes, you can walk to the central embankment, it's about 15 minutes walk, but you have to go along the highway, where cars constantly run. Not a very pleasant walk with children. I would not be able to call this place quiet and secluded, due to the huge crowding of hotels, in order to go on an excursion by car from there, we had to stand in a traffic jam for about 40 minutes, simply because two cars hardly drive apart, especially if on the sides there are parked cars of visiting tourists. Maybe the hotel is not to blame for this, but why not honestly tell that there is no beach? Or, for example, lay out the road to the beach, so that everyone can understand where you will get?

The hotel is the best, but it’s bad that the sea is at least 15-20 minutes away and sometimes too lazy to go down to the hot pagoda on the sea and swim near the pool here 3 pools 1 large clear water, 2 sea water, breakfasts are so-so you can put a C grade and the animators can also say so bored with boredom.

We were waiting for a vacation for a very long time... We chose for a long time where we would go, opted for IvaMaria and did not regret it. The feeling was that we were at home, our key to the territory, peace and quiet - this was the most important thing in our vacation, to take a break from the everyday bustle.

The feeling was that we were at home, our key to the territory, peace and quiet - this was the most important thing in our vacation, to take a break from the everyday bustle. The view from the room is amazing, the rooms are spacious. All staff are smiling. The villa was so calm and quiet that it seemed to us as if we were resting ourselves, there were almost no people to be seen, we sometimes met near the pool, they cleaned the rooms imperceptibly. The weather let us down, the whole holiday was rainy and overcast. A couple of times we went on an excursion to Alushta, the rest of the time we spent at the villa. The water in the pool is warm, but when you go out it is very cold, you immediately ran into the room for a warm shower. The breakfasts were delicious, but since we are not lovers of milk porridge, it was not enough for us) We dined mostly on the spot, it was nice to eat on the balcony in the room. I love mashed potatoes very much, so I judge all cooks by it and it let me down. We went to the sea once, but it was very cold and we left. The hotel lacked its service for organizing excursions. And, of course, in rainy weather for vacationers, I wanted some kind of games: mafia, chess, backgammon, something like that. Every year we choose a new city and a new place of rest in the Crimea, and I want to say if we go back somewhere, it would be IvaMaria.

The hotel is really very clean and comfortable. The pool is constantly cleaned, we rested with a baby for 2.5 years - my stomach never got sick. But the food is disgusting. The restaurant is more like a station cafe. Twice they brought us frankly raw food, ordered from the children's menu for the child. The first time it was a fish, the second - a cutlet.

The restaurant is more like a station cafe. Twice they brought us frankly raw food, ordered from the children's menu for the child. The first time it was a fish, the second - a cutlet. By the way, if you are with a child, then this becomes a serious problem, since there is generally nowhere to eat more, apart from ready-made food in the store and restaurant in Lazurny. For adults, this is not such a big problem.
By the way, it’s not far to go to the sea, but IvyMaria’s sunbeds are on the concrete, and not on the beach. For this reason, we never used them. It is not difficult to get to Alushta, an electric car runs from the Sea Corner - 10 UAH to a worker, 20 UAH - to Alushta.

Foreword: If something does not work the first time, there is nothing to try further...
After reading the reviews, looking at the photos of the hotel, I decided - I need to go. I tried to get into this hotel for three years in a row, some obstacles appeared all the time: either the child would get sick, then work, then financial difficulties. But finally it happened - we're going! How they were looking for an entrance to the hotel is a whole story, as our driver said - “the second Santa Barbara”, at first we did not understand what he was talking about. It turns out that in the Crimea there is a small resort, where some hotels are stuck next to each other and is called the Santa Barbara resort, but oh well, they found it. We arrived very early, before settling another 6 hours, we were saved by the fact that two rooms were booked, and we crowded into one. Thank you for not leaving our suitcases on the street))).
Well, now about the hotel. I must say right away that I was surprised by three things: cleaning, coffee and waiting time. So, let's begin. I will not write about the numbers, so much has been said about them - everything is fine. In general, the hotel is very good and so are the staff. You can see that people are trying. Surprised by the cleanliness of the room. The corridors of the hotel were cleaned every day, I even saw how the walls were washed, but they forgot about the rooms. On the fourth day of my stay at the hotel, I wanted to throw out the trash and change the towels, those that allow me to take to the beach with me. No one writes here, or maybe it’s just a curiosity for me))), but there are 4 types of towels in the room: for the face, for the legs, a towel after the shower, and those that you can take with you to the beach (or to the pool). Well, after throwing the towels on the floor and hanging the corresponding sign on the door handle, we went for a couple of hours to eat and take a walk. We arrive at the sign in place, so no one has left. I call reception and ask them to leave. An employee came running right away, I won’t call her a cleaning lady, I don’t like this word, she replaced the towels and took out the trash. The administrator asked me to call them if you need cleaning! For me it was strange. Next is breakfast. About what kind of food, I will not expand either, we were not hungry. But here's the coffee! I can't live without coffee in the morning. And then there was the impression that one can of instant coffee was issued for two days, and for the entire hotel. If on the first day everyone had time to drink, then on the second day, as they say, "who did not have time, he was late. " Not seeing coffee, the question “where? ” immediately arose, the answer was “unfortunately ended. ” Well, I had a surprise. And when the same “trick” was repeated, then there was already irritation - when I don’t drink coffee, I “become violent. ” Next is the waiting time for food. Having made an order for a certain time, and having arrived, respectively, by this time, we waited another 20 minutes, and sometimes 30!! ! It is not very pleasant to be in a hungry state, even the fish on the tables did not save))) (there was a small aquarium with a fish on each table - very nice, I tell you).
I repeat - I really wanted to get into this hotel. But these little "troubles" somehow spoiled the impression, and the hotel itself is not located in the "quiet park area of the Professor's Corner of Alushta. " You still need to get to the corner, and along the way you will see a not very “picturesque” landscape in the form of garbage, dirt and heaps of stones after the landslides, but this is not a question for the hotel.
P. S. who are not embarrassed by the little things that I wrote, and these are really little things compared to the nature of the Crimea, then you will definitely like it there.

The hotel is small, the administrator is friendly, it was impossible to program the safe for two days, she came twice without any problems, she showed everything, there are already two pools for children and for adults. Three-course breakfasts change the menu every day, you can order lunch here from 85 UAH . Dinner from 70 UAH. Menu to order in advance. Walk to the center of the corner, walk 10.15 minutes, walk to Alushta for about 40 minutes. Drive along the embankment mini tuk tuk elekromashinki 10 UAH. Per person, the rooms are very clean, booked directly through their website in the internet, 10 percent advance payment. From the cost of the room and it’s yours, they didn’t disappoint in anything, the territory is super and there is billiards and there is wi-fi, sometimes it was buggy, but then go swim, the beach has its own sun loungers for free, the beach of the sanatorium, like everywhere else in the Crimea, but there were just a few people, and where are the stones on the left for diving, there is no place at all. the hotel is just class, few people bothered anyone, the rooms are quiet, the walls are thick, there are balconies, the sea view from the 5th floor is super, come here in silence, and everyone can walk in alushta party day.

The hotel is in a beautiful location, the view from the balcony is simply magnificent, the staff is polite, the room is clean and comfortable! The road to the beach goes through the park, so 5 minutes is nothing for Crimea! Breakfasts are also pleasing, I have never eaten everything to the end)))) Everything is fresh and tasty! I don't see any negatives about this hotel at all!
