отпуск удался! vacation was a success!

we are from Kyiv, ukraine, rested in greece for the first time - 2 adults and a child 6 years old. I'll start from the very beginning. We were brought to the hotel in the evening, at the reception they immediately offered to go for dinner. First impressions did not please us, but rather it was from fatigue. we got our room (by the way, the one that ordered, with a sea view). The room is quite spacious, there is a separate bed for a child. In the morning we went for breakfast - the usual, without any bells and whistles, well, in general, like breakfast. Dinner made me happy. But after 2 days the food became much better - breakfasts remained the same, but lunches and dinners became more varied - seafood every day, meat snacks for every taste (rabbit, pork, turkey, lamb, chicken) Large selection of pasta, t. because there are a lot of Italians in the hotel, but more on that later. The variety of olive oil was simply amazing, as well as cheeses. Drinks for every taste, starting with water and ending with national vodka-uzy. The bar also made pizza, ice cream and snacks all day. as for animation: it was divided into 2 camps: Italian and German-Polish-Russian-English-generally hodgepodge. Italians predominate in the hotel, although when we left many Russians stopped by. as for excursions. We took one from the guide on about. Simi. The cost is 45 euros per person. and then only because it was necessary to swim. But then we rented a car at the hotel (Marathon company), they are cheaper (3 days - 100 euros) and plus a full franchise, which the guide does not have. We traveled the whole island, visited all the excursions ourselves, it was wonderful, the roads were especially impressive, we would have such! And more information for women! Fur coats! We visited all the shops on the island. They even took a free transfer to the Georgia store - just awful: the choice is poor, the service is bad, not to say worse and the prices are outrageous. But we found the "Karre" store, 3 km before reaching Rhodes, the owner of the Georgians (name is Odysseus). They have 2 halls, the choice is the best and bargaining is appropriate. the staff is top notch. From our check-in at the hotel, 6 people bought fur coats from them. , including us and that's just who we knew, information about them was transmitted along the chain. Prices - 4600 white mink with a lynx) were taken for 2300.2700 (Canadian mink, brown) were taken for 1500. The quality is excellent. The main thing is to bargain. and besides, if you try the local cuisine, you won’t lose, take moussaka. have a nice holiday!
