Not 4 stars, as we were sold, but 2 solid
Room got on the third floor, clean but no frills! (compared to others, just gorgeous, some were settled in the basement, tin), the elevator did not work! ! ! WI fi $ 7 for 10 days, we didn’t take it, because someone handed it out for free on our floor (thank you kind person). At the reception they work without a uniform, in their worn T-shirts (looks like a hanyg), at the pool bar there are plastic cups, no cocktails with umbrellas))) wine, a certain limit, and sour (I won’t even do this for free), but here beer as much as you want ...Food for vegans, I really didn’t have enough meat for a girl, not to mention men. . mostly some chicken, chicken giblets, and semi-finished soy products. Once they gave nagits, it was as if the people had not eaten them for a century, they made a basin in 5 seconds)) there were also few fruits, mostly free oranges, from the garden behind the fence, they gave them a couple of times a day. Strawberries, cherries bought themselves.
The beach is a separate issue, no 200 meters, they were not too lazy to measure 33 steps along the sea, broken sun loungers, and there wasn’t enough for everyone, it wasn’t cleaned, there were broken windows, there was no toilet either, take your own towels. Animation - Jamal handsome, the children love him mostly played with them, as adults do not shake, well done, tried his best. The hammam at the hotel is just super massage, they also do it at the level, I advise everyone you won’t regret it, they went to do it from the neighboring 5 stars, since they are more expensive! I liked the excursion from ginza on a pirate ship with a foam disco. (three minutes walk from the hotel to the left. And cheaper than the tour operator)

Let's start with a big plus - many thanks to Alena at the reception for her patience and professionalism! (Alyonushka, you deserve the best 5 * hotel). Another plus is volleyball on the beach (although the animator does not have his own ball and he "shot" it at the vacationers). The rest, solid cons: everything listed in previous reviews is absolutely true.

Another plus is volleyball on the beach (although the animator does not have his own ball and he "shot" it at the vacationers). The rest, solid cons: everything listed in previous reviews is absolutely true. Let's add from ourselves: the bartender - "I'm not asking you for alms, I paid for everything", Kemal (animator) - the working day begins in the morning, and not when I wake up after a night disco, darts for a hotel are a very expensive pleasure - it hangs all covered in mold and rust without darts, a feature of the hotel - THE BAR CLOSES AT 22:00, SO AT 21:30 EVERYONE SHOULD HELP THE ANIMATION MANAGER TO MAKE A "TUNNEL FOR THE SAKE OF THE CHILDREN" SO YOU DON'T "MAKE TIME" FOR THE BAR AND THE HOTEL SAVED (literally - stop drinking), THE EXACT HEIGHT TO CEILING OF THE UNDERGROUND PASSAGE TO THE SEA - 180-185 cm (wear a helmet) and carefully - slippery, it’s really possible to enter the sea only in calm weather in rubber sneakers and in a sober state, food: you won’t die of hunger, but you will miss your home very much (this happens to me the first time) and by the way the bar does not work during breakfast, lunch and dinner, but closes 30 minutes before them, afternoon snack: biscuit))))) one plate for the whole hotel, carefully: when you check out the room, the security checks the room for availability stolen) There was a problem to take food on the road, and go to the airport about 3 hours. However, there were people who liked it, and after the Soviet recreation centers, this hotel is cool for them. It’s a sin to complain if you get a Bingo for a penny (and this is 99% of vacationers), but it’s stupid to choose this hotel on purpose. Composition of vacationers: 60% Russians, 2% Belarus, 30% Ukraine (really adequate people), the rest are impudent Turks!

It took 4 hours to get from the airport. We arrived at 23 pm. We didn't get any food, so we ended up without dinner. I had to eat at a nearby street restaurant. The service is not the best. During the stay (10 days) bed linen was not changed. Towels were changed only once. Everyone asks for a tip. Somehow they sweep the room, not to mention washing.

The guides had already sold the excursions in the morning, everyone was in a hurry. They didn’t even talk about the sights of Turkey. The reception did not leave lunch packages before the tour. Wifi was chargeable.

We were taken from the airport in more than 3.5 hours, the road is long, terrible. We arrived after 12 at night, no snack, no one showed us to the room, they didn’t even say the floor. The hotel area is very small. There were not enough sun beds, there were not enough tables in the dining room for everyone - they ate in turn, the tables were on duty.

We were taken from the airport in more than 3.5 hours, the road is long, terrible. We arrived after 12 at night, no snack, no one showed us to the room, they didn’t even say the floor. The hotel area is very small. There were not enough sun beds, there were not enough tables in the dining room for everyone - they ate in turn, the tables were on duty. The pool is small, there are no water slides, the jacuzzi is paid. On the territory of the hotel there is a mini-stall with towels, magnets, etc. Internet, WiFi, safe - all for a fee. The room is normal if you come to the sea, and not enjoy the apartment. View from the rooms - to other hotels. The air conditioning was broken, despite the temperature up to 51 degrees. Cleaning at will, soap and shampoo was given only on the first day, toilet paper was not brought. Service in the room as such was not, after cleaning it was even dirtier. The staff spoke Russian, but not all. In the bar, the bartender threw glasses, often leaving when ordering. Everyone agrees to come to the rescue there, if they loom in the face of dollars. The food was not very good, what was not eaten for lunch was given for dinner. The only fruit was watermelon. The pastries are the same: the same semolina biscuit, but spread with different jams. In the restaurant, only booze, all drinks are divorced. There is no assortment of dishes, it seems to be a lot - there is nothing to eat. For example, bell pepper with cucumber - one salad, the same pepper with tomato - another salad, just pepper with herbs - the third salad, Pekinka cut into slices - a new dish, ordinary cabbage chopped without anything - a new dish. There was nothing to eat for breakfast, either leftovers from dinner or coffee and bread. The sea was stormy, stormy all 7 days. The water is of average purity, there are many sharp stones in the water - when the wave covered, the husband fell and broke his ear. And it was impossible to go there with children. There were not enough sun loungers on the beach, the umbrellas were broken, dirty. There was no pier to enter the water, nor any devices. But there were broken bottles along the beach. There were no animation games either during the day or in the evening. Evening shows were watched from the balcony in a nearby hotel (there was no show). There was no live music, there was a laptop and low-quality acoustics, from which there was a lot of noise. Sports opportunities - unless on foot to go to the floor, because the elevator was constantly busy. SPA was - 50 dollars per person. There was a small children's pool, a maximum of 5 kids. There were no playgrounds, and there were few places for adults. The children were actually entertained by their parents. A couple of times a boy danced with them to 2-3 songs - and bajushki. The hotel is bad, if you give 2 * - it will do, but not 4 at all. I do not recommend going there, a waste of money and time, and as a result, vacation and negativity are spoiled.

They have developed a system - people come, they are accommodated in other hotels, explaining that there are no places in the hotel. We fell for this trick, settled us in a hotel opposite (where nothing worked, the sheets were full of holes, etc. ), went to eat in Ares, swam in the pool also in Ares. They raised a fuss, called the central office of Corol Travel (through which we went to rest), two days later we were settled in the Ares hotel.

Breakfast is poor, but at lunch and dinner you could eat, and very well. Rooms are good, cleaned every day. The sea is crystal clear and transparent. Go to the sea for a maximum of 10 minutes. The entry into the sea is stone, but in some places there are small pebbles, the entry is good. The entire beach is small pebbles.

Rested with my husband in the hotel "ARES" in July 2015. The hotel was chosen according to the description on the tour operator's website, they did not choose the cheapest tour, because they wanted to come to a good 4 * hotel, but upon arrival it turned out that the hotels were barely up to three stars. It all started with the fact that we were generally settled in the building of another hotel, and only after a scandal at the reception we were moved to the building of our hotel the next day.

It all started with the fact that we were generally settled in the building of another hotel, and only after a scandal at the reception we were moved to the building of our hotel the next day. Further, it turned out that the refrigerator did not work in our room and it smelled very strongly, besides, the bed interferes with the door to open completely, the air conditioner and the toilet stick, even after the second request to fix it, they did not. The electricity was periodically cut off in the hotels, respectively, the elevator, the machines with coffee and cold drinks did not work, to our surprise there was no water in the taps. The territory of the hotel. There was no promised garden, no terrace. There was only one shared toilet by the pool in the basement, very dirty but not the worst. Worse than this toilet was the staircase to it, many people slipped and fell on it, a young guy broke his collarbone on this staircase, even after such an incident, the hotel administration did not take any action, they just hung a note that it was dangerous to run and walk around the pool! Fitness Center and the bath were paid, although it was stated otherwise. Only those who paid for the services of the hammam were allowed into the fitness center! The beach does not have its own bar and it is forbidden to take out drinks from the pool bar. The road to the beach is much longer than the promised 50 meters. The entrance to the beach is dangerous, however, like the underpass itself. Special attention should be paid to food. For breakfast, overly salty cheese, bread, cucumbers and drinks are served, it is impossible to get enough of this breakfast. For lunch and dinner, the choice of dishes was also very modest and did not reach the assortment of a 4 * hotel. At the same time, hot dishes were given out in portions. Only after our requests to change the hotel and calls began to feed a little better, but they agreed to change the hotel only for an additional payment of $ 530 for three days, saying that our hotel denies everything written above. And a little about the lunch box. It consisted of a piece of bread, a cucumber, half a tomato and a piece of salted cheese. Water was not included in it, although it must be in any lunch box. photos https://cloud. mail. en/public/j4un/ryzdowt87

The worst hotel on the coast! We were in Turkey for the first time and for ourselves we concluded that it was the last. It's just not our country either in terms of climate, or in terms of the mentality of the attendants and the people in general, or in terms of cuisine... In general, it turned out not to be a vacation, but a complete disappointment.

The worst hotel on the coast!
We were in Turkey for the first time and for ourselves we concluded that it was the last. It's just not our country either in terms of climate, or in terms of the mentality of the attendants and the people in general, or in terms of cuisine... In general, it turned out not to be a vacation, but a complete disappointment. But get to the point! It all started with the duration of the transfer: 3.5 hours from the airport to the hotel is too much. We entered the territory of the hotel, an oil painting - all Russo-tourists are hanging out near the pool, the music is blaring, like in a disco, the furniture in the lobby is tattered, the rooms are not yet ready for check-in, they say, wait until they clean it up. I go to the bar, ask for a glass of water or juice (according to the conditions - all inclusive), the answer is - no juice, water in the cooler... While we are waiting for the room to be prepared for us, brave guys of local nationality come up and offer us a tour of the hotel . We go down to the -1 floor - a hammam, a sauna, massage cabins and a mini-gym. All this is presented under the sauce “don’t go there, we have the best quality and price” or “the cost of the procedure is $100, but for you, as for dear guests, there is a promotion - 50% discount only today. ” Impressions are aggravated after we, after an hour of waiting, get into the room: smoky, the bed will hold together terribly, the air conditioner does not work. But that is not all! The food is terrible! If you are not picky and you basically still need to fill your stomach - ok ! , but if you are at least a little gourmet or just used to eating well - you will definitely be surprised to say the least. We come for dinner - all the hungry have gathered, like animals at a watering place, and are waiting for the doors to paradise to be opened to them. The cherished door opens, and a frenzied crowd bursts into the dining room, sweeping away free juices, wine, beer, etc. along the way. My husband and I watch in horror. We stand in line, which before our eyes reaches a kilometer. Many pass us by, someone stands behind us (apparently, they also just arrived today). I ask my husband to stand still, take the instruments, and I myself go for reconnaissance. What was my surprise - no soups, no meat, no fish, solid sauces, salads with pasta, two or three types of potatoes, but they didn’t taste like anything... As a result, we decided to try everything that resembled our usual food. They didn’t eat, but they took a sample. We sat down at a table with long-term vacationers (determined by the degree of sunburn), and began to ask what and how. The guys from St. Petersburg laughed and said, they say, get used to it on the 3rd day. Accustomed to the 4th, waiting for departure back home. I'm also lucky that my husband has a sense of humor, otherwise it wouldn't be fun at all.
By the way, wi-fi in the hotel is paid, it works only in the lobby on the 1st floor, and then intermittently (I could not download the mail).
As for the village of Mahmutlar itself. Small, more or less clean, there is a market (works 2 times a week) where you can buy fruit. Opposite the hotel there is a supermarket where we bought food and Turkish delight when we left. The beach is dirty and unkempt. To get to it, you need to go through the underground passage, in which, judging by the aromas, "cultured people" relieve themselves.
In general, if you want to relax, I strongly do not recommend choosing this hotel! Although, if you are accustomed not to worry too much and after all of the above are still thinking, I think you will like it. In that case, I wish you a pleasant stay!

I read the reviews and wonder what people want by paying such ridiculous money for a vacation? ! So that the Turks would provide you with "full stuffing" at their own expense? The hotel pulls quite well for the money paid! 14. The hotel, of course, is not for the pampered and spoiled, but still amazing service, friendly staff and a favorable atmosphere cover all the shortcomings that exist in any hotel.

I read the reviews and wonder what people want by paying such ridiculous money for a vacation? ! So that the Turks would provide you with "full stuffing" at their own expense? The hotel pulls quite well for the money paid! 14. The hotel, of course, is not for the pampered and spoiled, but still amazing service, friendly staff and a favorable atmosphere cover all the shortcomings that exist in any hotel. The rooms are comfortable, overlooking the sea and mountains, in the center of Mahmudlar, within walking distance from all shopping centers, restaurants and of course the sea!! ! The transition to the sea is gloomy of course, but no one asks you to climb there, there is a pedestrian crossing across the road! Please, if you are already so squeamish))) They feed normally, those who write that they poisoned and other advice. . . less you need to cram unfamiliar food into yourself and drink from dawn to dusk at the bar! And so the food is quite normal, especially the breakfasts are excellent, there you have a children's table with cereal, milk, sweets, various types of jams and honeys, as well as pancakes, omelettes, salads, meat. I rarely went to dinner, so I can’t say what they were treated to. They also fed us an afternoon snack: cookies, sweets, drinks. Fruits are always for dinner: melons, watermelons, oranges, chicken, fish, a sweet table and a bunch of various local salads and more. . . The rooms are cleaned every day! Show by the pool every evening! There are a lot of young people in the hotel, there were almost no children. City-type hotel, the territory is really small, it is not for those who plan to sit the whole holiday on the territory! There are so many interesting things around the territory, just have time to come up with a program for yourself! Go to Alanya at night, visit local restaurants, on Saturdays, scooter shows on the water and a disco on the pier, arrives on Tuesdays and Sundays the bazaar in the center of Mahmudlar. Excursions are generally a separate issue, expensive, but the emotions are worth it.
