We went to this hotel with a 9-year-old child. I can say that I liked everything in this hotel. We don't find fault with anything like other people do. This hotel gets a solid 4. The rooms are clean and nice, with everything you need in the rooms, even a kettle with tea and coffee, which was a real surprise for me. The safe is free, which is also very pleasing. The territory of the hotel is not very large, but everything you need is there. The pools are clean, there is enough space for everyone. For children there is a pool with slides, which is also very good. We also liked the animation, it won't be boring. Every day something new and interesting. Regarding the food, everything is as written in the reviews. There is a lot of it and it is very tasty. You will definitely not be hungry. Delicious ice cream is served every day, not ice like in other hotels. Towels are free. Wi-Fi is free only at the reception.
As for the sea, the hotel does not have its own beach as such, but if you go to the left you can swim on the nearby beach, only you cannot lie on the sunbeds there. In general, if you go on vacation with a good mood, then you will like everything, and shortcomings can be found in every hotel.

My husband and I arrived at this hotel at about 10 am, tired and killed by a long journey, at the reception we were greeted by an administrator of Asian appearance, they didn’t remember the name, but a nice young man, he understands Russian perfectly. We were given bracelets, shown where to leave our luggage and offered to have breakfast. We used the restroom on the first floor, which is of course a quiet horror, as I understand it, this is a toilet for staff, including no one cleans there. I advise you, go up to the second floor, there the restroom is in perfect order, you can wash and change.
They settled us at 12, and not at 2 (tipping was not given) is already good. We were taken to the room, everything was shown. The room is old and the floor is not great. clean, but everything works, the shower, the toilet are clean and the drain works, the hair dryer is working, there were mini-cosmetics and towels, we even got swans, a working refrigerator with water and juice, a working safe, air conditioning and a TV set are also normal. While we were having lunch and going to the beach, they cleaned the room, changed linen and towels, brought more paper and shampoo / soap / gel, and also brought fruit and wine to the room on the first day. Wi-Fi works in the room, which is good. pleased with the sea view.
As for food, the food is homemade and delicious, a lot of vegetables, greens, there is also enough meat, every day there was a grill on the street, a lot of sweets and fruits, with alcohol: beer, white and red wine, gin, whiskey and vodka, for lunch there was ice cream and cocktails, coffee on the beach, water, hamburgers and pizza, fruits. In general, you will not be hungry, some of the bars are constantly working.
The hotel beach is disgusting, we didn’t even go to it, we only chilled Turkish grandmothers there, all the young people went along the coast to the turtle beach or other sandy beaches, it was not difficult to find a cool entry, but without a sun lounger, but we love sunbathing and beach towels in hotel issue.
In the evening there was animation, dancing, the hotel has a beautiful "amphitheater", but we went there once, at night the village walks, a lot of shops.
In general, we liked it.

We went to the hotel with a child. I liked everything very much. Honestly worried because there were no fresh reviews, and the price was very pleasant. We went on fear and risk and were very pleased. The room was on the 1st floor in fact (3rd floor). With pool and mountain views. The view is certainly very beautiful.

The room was on the 1st floor in fact (3rd floor). With pool and mountain views. The view is certainly very beautiful. The room had everything except a bathrobe (they said the crown) and a kettle. There were slippers, washing, towels were given as much as you ask)) in general, the staff is responsive. Already upon arrival, we realized that we needed separate sleeping places with a child, and the room was with a large bed, at the request they brought a good folding bed with a mattress. The hotel has a Russian-speaking office manager Farid. Handles all issues very well. The food was good, everything was enough. On the beach, in general, there is a choice either to go down the stairs from the pontoon (full-fledged steps) immediately to the depth there and it’s clean, or go a little to the left there is a sandy beach. Animation was every day. We were satisfied, I can advise as a family hotel.

Compared to 4 * rooms, the same thing, there are no bathrobes, shampoos and gels were delivered only after being reminded twice at the reception. There is no kettle in the room, as it was in 4 *, tea and coffee in the room is also not allowed. Sea view room is a plus. Service in quarantine at 4 *, they wanted to take money only for giving a remote control from the air conditioner.

Service in quarantine at 4 *, they wanted to take money only for giving a remote control from the air conditioner. In terms of nutrition - food is also not 5 *, maximum 4 *, there is enough food, but there is practically no fish, only fried, there is no children's cuisine, but the barbecue is super on the street!
In the morning, when checking out, they were allowed to eat earlier, which is a plus. Along the beach: at first we were scared because it was dirty, but if you go to the left to the rock there is a great beautiful place without people.
The bar is open from 10, with alcohol only vodka, whiskey, gin. Even in 4 * they make cocktails, here I know only one (vodka, grenadine and orange juice) and gin plus sprite.
For comparison, 5 * and 4 * in Side, there is little difference, and then, in 4 * rooms were more careful in terms of repairs, etc. Animation enough, every day is different. H, there is no indicated HAMAM and a bath! Fitness doesn't work. Very weak internet, and only in the lobby, like 5* could be cheaper than 3 dollars a day.
Do I recommend to go here?
Look at your capabilities, if you pay a lot of money and go here - it's not worth it. If you don't have a big budget, you won't regret it.

In this hotel, you are greeted by one big minus at the reception named SEGDAR (I hope I spelled the name correctly). It's not afraid of the word DAMN this hotel. I can't call him a man! I was alone with two children! In vouchers we have standard rooms! He gave a card and sent to look for a number. We found Anex in the building, although when we took a ticket, we clarified whether there was also a standard in the main building! The tour operator said in advance that there are both there and there, we ourselves will choose where we want! But this non-human began his divorce! So he does with everyone that in the main building there are only VIP rooms.

The hotel is just terrible. It all started with the fact that at the entrance we were given a bungalow, referring to the fact that this is a standard room. There is no cleaning, hair was everywhere, the toilet is all dirty, mold on the walls, dirty bed linen, there are no soap accessories, towels, of course, too, there is no water.

After we began to swear that this did not suit us, we were told to sit in the hall until 2 am and they would give us a normal room, the time was 21.00. At 2 o'clock we were given a room, but there was also nothing there and it was dirty. The staff at the hotel are all rude, or they pretend that you are not talking. The food is disgusting. Wi-Fi paid - $ 9 per week. There is no free. We didn't see any positives here. We do not recommend this hotel.

I will say right away to avoid comments that we are too spoiled and picky, that we have been in Turkey 18 times already, we have rested in all regions - in Kemer, Belek, Side, Alanya, Marmaris, Bodrum. So there really is something to compare. We started with expensive (relatively) fashionable hotels, but then we realized that everything is about the same everywhere, and it is often better to choose a good 4 * than a weak 5 *.

I will say right away to avoid comments that we are too spoiled and picky, that we have been in Turkey 18 times already, we have rested in all regions - in Kemer, Belek, Side, Alanya, Marmaris, Bodrum. So there really is something to compare. We started with expensive (relatively) fashionable hotels, but then we realized that everything is about the same everywhere, and it is often better to choose a good 4 * than a weak 5 *. So for the last few years we have been going 2-3 times a year to 4 * hotels. We love Turkey with all our heart. Good-natured, friendly people, climate, sea, Turkish cuisine. We always like everything, we are always satisfied, we do not pay attention to minor flaws, we come home really rested, ready, as they say, for new labor exploits.
Based on our experience, we trust reviews by 50%, because often upon arrival at the hotel, we saw that, to put it mildly, they were not true. Often a scandal is inflated from some insignificant trifle, people really sometimes come across too “arrogant”, and good things are not noticed at the same time. We ourselves have never written reviews before, it is very difficult for us to ruin a vacation, we are always positive. This happened 17 times. . .
But, as they say, even an old woman has a hole in her face... And so we ended up in Limoncello (we really got it! ). But let's go in order.
Firstly, the hotel, of course, is not 5 * either in terms of location, or in terms of territory, or in terms of the service provided, for such ridiculous money 5 * UAI does not happen. We were counting on the level of 4 *, but everything turned out to be "a little" worse...
So. . .
1. Settlement. I put a firm mark of 2.
We arrived at the hotel at 5:30 am.
Yes, we, as experienced tourists, know very well that check-out is at 12.00, check-in is at 14.00. This is a world practice, but... We often came to Turkey both at night and in the morning, and usually 10-20 dollars always solved the problem. In addition, 2 families drove in, and after 5 minutes 4-5 families left. They were able to clean the rooms for us only at 13.45, although the cleaners rustle already from 7.00 (by the way, shamelessly they start vacuuming in the common corridor at 7.30, I also want to sleep on vacation, but it’s so, little things). In short, after 8 hours of waiting, forcing us to still give 10 euros, settled.
2. Number. More or less. The furniture is not very old. View directly to the sea (which is not so important for us). The hair dryer in the bathroom was torn off with meat, the glass doors on the bathroom were broken, I had to hold it so that it did not fall off when closing, the TV sound was very quiet, although we don’t watch it on vacation. But, again, we haven’t paid attention to such small things for a long time, so we can put 4 points for the number.
- Cleaning. For 3 with a plus, as elsewhere in Turkey. They always left 1 dollar. True, they changed the linen regularly, even the swans were twisted out of towels for us a couple of times. We asked for a second blanket - they gave it without any problems.
3. Beach. For the beach - a solid rating of 2. The point is not that the beach is only 20 m wide, but that everything is very run down, dirty and no one is even trying to fix something. There are only 30 places under the canopy. The remaining 50 sunbeds stand in the open air. The entrance to the sea is terrible. The rock slab is slippery and ribbed. I saw how a man with a child in his arms went into the sea, slipped, fell, scared the child and got scared for the child himself. If you know how to swim, then it’s better to go from the pier along the stairs. It’s easier for me, I dived straight from the pier, it’s not high there, up to 2 meters.
Walk 700-800 meters to the beach (but for us this is more a plus than a minus. On the way to the beach, by the way, there is an inexpensive shop. There, for example, sweet pomegranates for $ 1 per kg). The bar on the beach doesn't even have beer (It's 5* UAI). Of the drinks, 2 types of chemical UPPI and shmurdyachny diluted coffee. From snacks, only one dish every day is a burger with a soy patty.
3-1. Sea. Overseas rating 5+. The sea in Turkey in September is always 5+. This is perhaps the only thing that Limoncello could not spoil us. The water is warm and clean (were 2 months ago 5 km in Caretta 4 *, for some reason there was a lot of garbage in the sea, although the hotel is a cut above in terms of service. But here, apparently, it still depends on the season and on the wind).
4. Territory. Grade - 3. Total area - 12.000 sq. m. I have never seen such small fives before. Dirty, not well maintained, which is nonsense for a Turkish hotel, I have not met a single gardener for all the time. There is only one bar on the territory, the assortment is the same as on the beach - none. True, there is beer, but it is bottled in 100 gr. plastic glasses. If you do not count the foam, then 70 grams are placed in a glass. The bartender is in a dirty tunic (like all the staff associated with the kitchen and products).
The pool seems to be normal, but we didn’t swim. We came to swim in the September sea, and I can splash around in bleach at home.
5. SPA. I put 4 with a minus. Minus for the fact that everything is very old, shabby and broken. The peeling was done so-so, but the Ethiopian chocolate massage was excellent, I enjoyed it. If you do at least one paid procedure, you can go to the sauna when and how much want. Although it is always included in 5 * UAI initially, but in this hotel everything is a little different. Well, since this is one of the few positive points of this hotel, every day we ran for half an hour to the SPA center, sit in the sauna.
6. Nutrition. SOLID ONE!! ! This is the biggest downside of this hotel. We love Turkish food very much, but here it was one big upset. The cooks at the hotel are armless, just a translation of products, meat and fish dishes are not fried, with blood. The quality of the products leaves much to be desired, he personally threw out suspicious, "smell" dishes several times. I personally heard about a dozen stories from people about poisoning. The family that drove with us on the same bus got hurt all together, fell out of vacation for two days. We are beaten tourists, we always have a first-aid kit with us, threw them medicines for poisoning at night, and in the morning, when local pharmacies opened, we went and bought them more different medicines, they themselves were not able to go out (and they were afraid to go far from the toilet, in order to avoid accidents).
There is no dishwasher in the restaurant, the dishes are washed by hand, with barely warm water, and they are washed only from above, from below fat and food residues remain. A very cool picture, you go into a restaurant, everyone stands and rubs plates with napkins and swears. The dishes are all chipped and cracked, from previous seasons, 7 or 8 sizes, different colors. A constant problem with forks, people take spoons or dessert forks instead of forks. In short, the kitchen is a complete ambush, we encountered this for the first time in Turkey. One thing saved us - drinking strong alcohol before eating. We brought two bottles with us and had to buy two at a local store. Expensive, of course, they have alcohol, but health is more expensive . I tried a couple of times for dinner to take free vodka, gin and whiskey (it's UAI) - shmurdyak is full, diluted exactly in half, i. e. maximum 20 degrees.
7. Service. No less than the kitchen killed the boorish attitude of the staff (not all, but the middle level, in particular the reception staff). When we were waiting for the settlement, we went to the toilet at the reception, and there....It’s cleaner at the rural bus station, it’s scary to approach this toilet, let alone sit on it. A woman (who later poisoned herself and whom we bought medicines for) made a remark to them, to which this receptionist, who identified himself as Ilyas, said: "Welcome to HELL! ".
At first I thought that he just decided to smooth everything over and turn it into a joke, I look at him, and he looks at us contemptuously and smirks. I just freaked out. So I wanted to punch him in the face, but, unfortunately, it is categorically not recommended to do this in Turkey, it has already been checked, it comes out very expensive.
Then this woman (Tamara from Ukraine) asks the second worker (name is Gennady):
- Would you sit on such a toilet yourself?
He doesn't even look at her and says:
- And I'm at home.
Then Ilyas retorted again:
- If you don't like something, complain to your Zelensky.
ALL. THE CURTAIN.
Here you go. What rating for the service to put - decide for yourself.
Later, the hotel employees themselves told me why all this was happening in the hotel (by the way, another plus of the hotel is that almost all the staff speak Russian).
In short, the owner of the hotel is some kind of party boss from Erdogan's party. Naturally, a very busy person is engaged in politics somewhere in the capital. The hotel is rented out. The lease is about to end. The money for the rooms has basically already been paid for. Therefore, everyone is fucked. The tenant, apparently, is not a very clean person (in the sense of morality). They have already calculated their profit, so they cut everything as much as possible. There is not even hot water in the hotel. I measured the water in the hot tap with a thermometer - +32. Such a summer water. It is still normal for an adult to wash, but how do people wash children?
So. OUTPUT:
- If you are only in the process of choosing a hotel - definitely refuse. Add 50-100 dollars. Go to some 4 *. This hotel is hardly 3* today.
- If you are with children - definitely a refusal, unsanitary conditions, there is no children's or dietary cuisine in this 5 * UAI, and you cannot pour 100 grams of vodka for a child for disinfection.
We are sociable people with elastic, and in the process of communication we came across several people who are completely satisfied with the hotel, but in the process of communication it turned out that they were in Turkey for the first time and had never been anywhere except Crimea before. Although, I think that now in the Crimea, probably, the service is not the same as it was 10 years ago. For such money, it is probably better to go to the Crimea than to Limoncello. Yes, and healthier.
If you have already “stumbled” and bought a ticket to Limoncello or get there by FORTUNA, then I will try to give you a couple of tips.
- In the US Army for female soldiers there is an interesting point in the instructions for behavior in extreme situations: if you are being raped and you have no way to prevent it, then just relax and have fun (I wonder if such an instruction really exists or is it a bike? ). So, you need to do the same here. Try to make the most of the pros (although there aren't many) and ignore the cons as much as possible.
Pros: sea, sun, walks in the evening (there is a whole block of shops, about 100), sauna, spa treatments. They offer many excursions (by the way, right in front of the hotel, all these excursions are half the price of the hotel guides).
- If you swim badly and plan to enter from the shore, then it is better to take a special one. slippers.
- Medicines in Turkey are expensive, though there are no fakes. So at least take the basics with you.
- Be sure to take strong alcohol. In this hotel it's really a matter of security (well, for fun again).
And most importantly - TAKE A GOOD MOOD WITH YOU.
Based on our experience, we trust reviews by 50%, because often upon arrival at the hotel, we saw that, to put it mildly, they were not true. Often a scandal is inflated from some insignificant trifle, people really sometimes come across too “arrogant”, and good things are not noticed at the same time.

4. Territory. Grade - 3. Total area - 12.000 sq. m. I have never seen such small fives before. Dirty, not well maintained, which is nonsense for a Turkish hotel, I have not met a single gardener for all the time. There is only one bar on the territory, the assortment is the same as on the beach - none. True, there is beer, but it is bottled in 100 gr. plastic glasses. If you do not count the foam, then 70 grams are placed in a glass. The bartender is in a dirty tunic (like all the staff associated with the kitchen and products).
The pool seems to be normal, but we didn’t swim. We came to swim in the September sea, and I can splash around in bleach at home.
5. SPA. I put 4 with a minus. Minus for the fact that everything is very old, shabby and broken. The peeling was done so-so, but the Ethiopian chocolate massage was excellent, I enjoyed it. If you do at least one paid procedure, you can go to the sauna when and how much want. Although it is always included in 5 * UAI initially, but in this hotel everything is a little different. Well, since this is one of the few positive points of this hotel, every day we ran for half an hour to the SPA center, sit in the sauna.
6. Nutrition. SOLID ONE!! ! This is the biggest downside of this hotel. We love Turkish food very much, but here it was one big upset. The cooks at the hotel are armless, just a translation of products, meat and fish dishes are not fried, with blood. The quality of the products leaves much to be desired, he personally threw out suspicious, "smell" dishes several times. I personally heard about a dozen stories from people about poisoning. The family that drove with us on the same bus got hurt all together, fell out of vacation for two days. We are beaten tourists, we always have a first-aid kit with us, threw them medicines for poisoning at night, and in the morning, when local pharmacies opened, we went and bought them more different medicines, they themselves were not able to go out (and they were afraid to go far from the toilet, in order to avoid accidents).
There is no dishwasher in the restaurant, the dishes are washed by hand, with barely warm water, and they are washed only from above, from below fat and food residues remain. A very cool picture, you go into a restaurant, everyone stands and rubs plates with napkins and swears. The dishes are all chipped and cracked, from previous seasons, 7 or 8 sizes, different colors. A constant problem with forks, people take spoons or dessert forks instead of forks. In short, the kitchen is a complete ambush, we encountered this for the first time in Turkey. One thing saved us - drinking strong alcohol before eating. We brought two bottles with us and had to buy two at a local store. Expensive, of course, they have alcohol, but health is more expensive . I tried a couple of times for dinner to take free vodka, gin and whiskey (it's UAI) - shmurdyak is full, diluted exactly in half, i. e. maximum 20 degrees.
7. Service. No less than the kitchen killed the boorish attitude of the staff (not all, but the middle level, in particular the reception staff). When we were waiting for the settlement, we went to the toilet at the reception, and there....It’s cleaner at the rural bus station, it’s scary to approach this toilet, let alone sit on it. A woman (who later poisoned herself and whom we bought medicines for) made a remark to them, to which this receptionist, who identified himself as Ilyas, said: "Welcome to HELL! ".
At first I thought that he just decided to smooth everything over and turn it into a joke, I look at him, and he looks at us contemptuously and smirks. I just freaked out. So I wanted to punch him in the face, but, unfortunately, it is categorically not recommended to do this in Turkey, it has already been checked, it comes out very expensive.
Then this woman (Tamara from Ukraine) asks the second worker (name is Gennady):
- Would you sit on such a toilet yourself?
He doesn't even look at her and says:
- And I'm at home.
Then Ilyas retorted again:
- If you don't like something, complain to your Zelensky.
ALL. THE CURTAIN.
Here you go. What rating for the service to put - decide for yourself.
Later, the hotel employees themselves told me why all this was happening in the hotel (by the way, another plus of the hotel is that almost all the staff speak Russian).
In short, the owner of the hotel is some kind of party boss from Erdogan's party. Naturally, a very busy person is engaged in politics somewhere in the capital. The hotel is rented out. The lease is about to end. The money for the rooms has basically already been paid for. Therefore, everyone is fucked. The tenant, apparently, is not a very clean person (in the sense of morality). They have already calculated their profit, so they cut everything as much as possible. There is not even hot water in the hotel. I measured the water in the hot tap with a thermometer - +32. Such a summer water. It is still normal for an adult to wash, but how do people wash children?
So. OUTPUT:
- If you are only in the process of choosing a hotel - definitely refuse. Add 50-100 dollars. Go to some 4 *. This hotel is hardly 3* today.
- If you are with children - definitely a refusal, unsanitary conditions, there is no children's or dietary cuisine in this 5 * UAI, and you cannot pour 100 grams of vodka for a child for disinfection.
We are sociable people with elastic, and in the process of communication we came across several people who are completely satisfied with the hotel, but in the process of communication it turned out that they were in Turkey for the first time and had never been anywhere except Crimea before. Although, I think that now in the Crimea, probably, the service is not the same as it was 10 years ago. For such money, it is probably better to go to the Crimea than to Limoncello. Yes, and healthier.
If you have already “stumbled” and bought a ticket to Limoncello or get there by FORTUNA, then I will try to give you a couple of tips.
- In the US Army for female soldiers there is an interesting point in the instructions for behavior in extreme situations: if you are being raped and you have no way to prevent it, then just relax and have fun (I wonder if such an instruction really exists or is it a bike? ). So, you need to do the same here. Try to make the most of the pros (although there aren't many) and ignore the cons as much as possible.
Pros: sea, sun, walks in the evening (there is a whole block of shops, about 100), sauna, spa treatments. They offer many excursions (by the way, right in front of the hotel, all these excursions are half the price of the hotel guides).
- If you swim badly and plan to enter from the shore, then it is better to take a special one. slippers.
- Medicines in Turkey are expensive, though there are no fakes. So at least take the basics with you.
- Be sure to take strong alcohol. In this hotel it's really a matter of security (well, for fun again).
And most importantly - TAKE A GOOD MOOD WITH YOU.

For us it was the first trip in our lives. We were settled in a room in which it was not even tidied up and towels from previous tenants were lying around. Since we arrived at night and were very tired from the road, we didn’t care about the room, we just asked them to clean it, they didn’t even want to change anything.

Since we arrived at night and were very tired from the road, we didn’t care about the room, we just asked them to clean it, they didn’t even want to change anything. They sent some kind of grandfather who took out the trash cans and replaced the linen. Everything was good except the cleanliness of the room. From the sea 10 minutes walking distance. The beach of the hotel itself is stone, we went to another beach, where there was sand, and it was nice to go. The food is good, if you come early, you will have to queue for dishes. There was always enough food and variety. For the cost that we went to this hotel, I could recommend this hotel to my friends and relatives, but I would warn about problems with the rooms.

I was wondering how such a hotel can be given 5 stars? ! ! We flew for the first time and we were convinced that all this should be so. But after talking to people who have at least a little experience, they assured that this hotel is not more than 3 stars. There were a lot of questions. Especially when it comes to nutrition.

But after talking to people who have at least a little experience, they assured that this hotel is not more than 3 stars. There were a lot of questions. Especially when it comes to nutrition. There is no children's menu, the child could only drink tea. There was almost no food on the beach. French fries in general were great, they are far from french fries. The hotel itself is large, very well built. But it needs repair. There used to be another owner here, everything was fine. And now everything is running here.
For those who want a budget holiday in a 3-level hotel - this hotel is suitable. If it's a holiday with children - then I do not recommend this hotel.
