We rested at the beginning of June 2019 at the ACAR hotel, all inclusive.
Hotel:
He does not have any stars, at least I did not notice them anywhere on the signs of the hotel. Wi Fi and internet paid. The hotel is not suitable for the elderly, families with small children.
The hotel is noisy, but if you are going to hang out until 12 am, then it is bearable, because 1/3 of the new hotel building is above the restaurant and loud music plays there until 1 am, on one side of the hotel, and on the other side, until 11 pm , local animators, loud, backward music, 90s, entertain the public of the hotel, as a result - a stereo. At 4 o'clock in the morning, you, within 5-10 minutes, persistently, will be invited to prayer in the mosque, which is located half a kilometer from the hotel. If you paid for a standart room, you should be given a plastic card, and if you have an economy room, you will be given a plastic card with a key and settled in the old building.

In a new building, very noisy rooms: from 101 to 110, from 201 to 210, from 301 to 310.
Noisy: 111 to 115.211 to 215.311 to 315.
More or less noisy: 116.216, 316.416, 515.516.
The old building is very noisy: 122.123, 124.222, 223.224, 322.323, 324.
Quiet in the old building: from 117 to 121, from 217 to 221, from 317 to 321.
Maids:
When the guests are at breakfast, then, until 12 o’clock, on the beach, the maids make tea in the morning, have a snack, arrange meetings, and when after dinner it’s + 35 and you want to relax, they start to break into your room and hang a sign “ Do not disturb, they don’t care, they need to clean up your number, my requests are in English, don’t break into me like that again, the next day - like a “stop” signal to a hare. Baksheesh, 2 dollars each. left, did not conflict, it is felt that the hotel is without stars.
Swimming pool:
In the mornings and evenings, I watched how 5 liters were poured into the pool. a tank of smelly liquid and throw pieces, judging by the smell, of bleach. When I asked one of the waiters on what days of the week they change the water in the pool, he opened his mouth in surprise, said that they only add water to the pool, he never saw when the water was changed. You have to hate yourself so much to swim in this shit, this applies, first of all, to the Germans, Scandinavians, who spend all day near the pool, swim in this shit, swim in the sea they are not allowed by insurance, insurance to the sea, swim they can't.
Nutrition:
You won't die of hunger, but nothing special to enjoy.
Do not eat maroon sausage, even local cats do not eat it.
Fruits - hard apples, tasteless watermelon.
Ice cream and freshly squeezed juice - for a fee.
Warning: If you decide to have breakfast near a smelly pool, 2 cats live there, do not feed them especially, cat-cats in Turkey are like holy cows in India, do not try to offend them.
Staff:

On Facebook, the hotel declares that the staff communicates in Russian, English, German - this is far from the case, with the Turks, you can negotiate in any language - for money, but the staff is friendly. We, the Russians, are not liked in the hotel, the brothers Slavs, as always, for free, they don’t know the limits. I made friends with a German, he asked me if there were problems with vodka in Russia or if it was very expensive. For half an hour I tried to explain what the Russian mentality means for free, I'm afraid that he did not understand the size of the breadth of the Russian soul. I myself saw a drunken German, Scandinavian, Russian in the smoke. Difference: a German, a Scandinavian stands quietly swaying and smiling, does not particularly stick to anyone. The Russian, with an embittered face, begins to ask the bartender why he does not see the edges in the glass, noisily and in a combat stance. To tell the truth, in this hotel, as a rule, Russians are poured 1/3 less, both wine and whiskey, although in Alanya, every fourth speaks Russian, alas, they do not appreciate breadwinners.
Beach:
from the hotel Nr. 7 paid, Nr. 12 free, but only 3 rows of sunbeds from the volleyball court on the right side, there is a sign, an administrator with a "higher education" walks there, who moved sunbeds on the beach all his adult life, he can tell you, so that later, you put the sunbeds in place, you can answer him that you have all inclusive. WI FI is paid everywhere.
Bazaar shopping:
Bazaar on Mondays, from the hotel to the left after 100 m, on Thursdays, after the 17th beach, the first turn to the left. It is best to buy for bucks and after lunch at 14-15 hours. Prices, if you are offered to buy a thing for 10 bucks, then the cost of the thing is 2-3 bucks, for 4-5 bucks you can take it. Your tour operator can offer free shopping at a jewelry store and a leather, fur store, I bought my wife a mink coat without a hood with detachable sleeves, a hem, of good quality, sang 1800 euros, agreed, within an hour, for 1070 euros, also with jewelry, bought with Turkish sultanite, the stone is mined only in Turkey, he asked for 127 bucks, in half an hour they agreed for 55. Tip: if you want a tangible discount, it’s better to buy in cash, because. when paying by card, you will not get a good discount, VAT is shown for them.
Bottom line: I didn’t like the hotel, I won’t go there again, I respect myself and my money.
