Hello! I'll start a little off topic - we rested with Anex - a tour that did not solve our problems at all, of which there were oh so many. Therefore, I post a self-survival course (without the help of a tour operator) at the Renda Hotel. It all started with the check-in - the representative of the Anex-tour left us and another couple from Ukraine at the reception, without even finding out whether they would check us in or not.

Hello! I'll start a little off topic - we rested with Anex - a tour that did not solve our problems at all, of which there were oh so many. Therefore, I post a self-survival course (without the help of a tour operator) at the Renda Hotel. It all started with the check-in - the representative of the Anex-tour left us and another couple from Ukraine at the reception, without even finding out whether they would check us in or not. And then it turned out that there were no free rooms in the hotel and there was nowhere to accommodate us. More precisely, there is one double room where we were offered to live in four - two families unfamiliar with each other and live there together for 4 days. To put it mildly, we were terribly delighted with this prospect and expressed everything that we think about it. It is a pity that the English language is not able to express all our Russian thoughts. It will not be possible to communicate in another language - only the animator Jeremy speaks Russian in the hotel. Yes, and English is spoken by a couple of people at the reception. After two hours of disputes, we were offered two rooms, but in a different hotel, on the condition that we will eat in Rende. This hotel was located 2.5 km from Renda, that is, if you want beer or some water - hands to feet and run 2.5 km to Renda. For the figure, of course, it is useful, for the psyche not very much. In short, after calls to our homeland and to the Ukrainian Anex-tour and threats to demand money back from the hotel, after 6 hours we were settled in TWO!! ! separate and clean rooms, in which no one has obviously lived before. The representative of Anesk Tour did not come to us, although we called him 4 times. All Russian-speaking tourists had problems with check-in, and not only - yesterday, when we checked out at the reception, the Germans were sitting, who had not been settled for 10 hours.
The rooms turned out to be quite good, everything worked, there are no Russian-language channels, so you can’t watch TV there, the “Menu” on the TV is blocked - nothing can be configured, there are no hair dryers declared in the rooms. They cleaned more or less, we didn’t leave any money, but they cleaned it all the same normally, they even sculpted swans on their towels.
Meals at the hotel can be called "all inclusive with restrictions" - if you want to lose weight, then you are here. Without limitation, only vegetables and watermelons - everything else is strictly given to you on plates, even pasta and potatoes, they don’t give additives. The food is monotonous - there was rice every day, breakfasts were just disgusting. Meat and chicken were not every day, mostly there was inedible soybeans, and then with restrictions. But wonderful waiters worked in the restaurant - friendly and cheerful, respect to the guys! Alcohol is strictly limited and diluted, and if the administration believed that they drank a lot yesterday, then today they did not pour alcohol. And it's not about trying a Russian drink, a lot - it's more than half a liter of beer or 150 grams of vodka. The general manager of the hotel hates Russians and kept saying that we are alcoholics - since we are not enough, but the Norwegians avenged us - upon arrival they drank the whole bar in an hour (in the concept of administration), so when we left the manager said that Renda - this hotel is not for Russians and Europeans, but for Turks. By the way, we were the last "Russians" who left the hotel - at three o'clock in the morning even the administrator came out to see us off, apparently they were afraid that we would not leave.
The declared free beach turned out to be paid in fact - 5 lira per room, the disputes were useless.
But in spite of everything, the rest was wonderful - we made friends with the guys with whom we were almost settled together, went to a disco in Alanya, where the animator Jeremy (a wonderful guy) took us for free, the sea and the weather did not let us down either. A good Russian-speaking company picked up at the hotel - it was fun. So the hotel is not the main thing, but I would not advise you to go here.

Many thoughts! We arrived yesterday. I want to share everything. I'll start in order. I went on holiday with my boyfriend. I am a very picky person and I love comfort. I know a lot about good resorts and hotels. We chose for a long time where to fly and in which hotel we would stay. But this time we were pressed for money.

Many thoughts! We arrived yesterday. I want to share everything. I'll start in order.
I went on holiday with my boyfriend. I am a very picky person and I love comfort. I know a lot about good resorts and hotels. We chose for a long time where to fly and in which hotel we would stay. But this time we were pressed for money.
And we were offered this hotel... the photos seemed normal to us, BUT here are the reviews... HORROR. We were even afraid to go there. Decided already that the holiday failed. But still we took the risk. When we arrived at the hotel, we were pleasantly surprised by the room! Two rooms + corridor + bathroom + balcony. A beautiful marbled bar counter immediately caught my eye, there was a beautiful bed in the bedroom. Everything worked properly! The air conditioner saved from the heat! Nothing was broken. Cons: Small TV. But it doesn't really matter : )
The hotel is very outstanding. Very beautiful, original and bright. Cool idea with a restaurant on the roof. The bad thing is that alcoholic drinks are EXACTLY until 23:00 and not a minute later. Food until 21:00.
The staff is normal. Even funny. Especially Alia. He is the pinnacle of the program!
The room was cleaned every day. Almost all staff speak Russian.
There were no entertainment programs. But what do you want! ? It's 3 stars.
The beach is close. Sunbeds and umbrellas for free.
The hotel is located in the center. Not in the city of Alanya. But in the center of the resort town. Lots of restaurants and shops. Book excursions only in the city. At the hotel, pay double for the same service. Super excursion-rafting. Everyone will like it! The food is a bit the same. Morning breakfast is terrible. But in the end, we recovered by a couple of kilograms : ) It seems that she told everything. We were very satisfied! Nice little hotel! Have a good holiday everyone! Till.

The hotel is ok, the service is not very good. Especially the waiter Ali - beware, he is a blue type, but he sticks to girls only in this way, he probably forgets why he is needed there at all. Anechka at the reception is a very nice girl. do not believe it - if they say that there is Ultra all inclusive. Complete crap, the hotel serves only local drinks - the beer is very weak.

I drank 4 glasses, at least in one eye. , you can live. We only went to the room to spend the night. The adult pool is not very large, the maximum depth is 180 cm.

There are few pluses: the sympathetic view of the hotel and the bartender Gerce. And now for the cons: 1. Poor housekeeping. We changed towels only after 7 days when we gave the cleaning lady a buck. Fresh towels were no different from the old ones. 2. Terrible service. Especially the bartender Ali. . . Terrible type.

2. Terrible service. Especially the bartender Ali. . . Terrible type. Swimming in the pool is not allowed in the evening. You cannot take more than one glass per person from the bar. First you need to drink one, then come for the second.
3. Terrible food. Monotonous and tasteless.
4. This hotel is a family business. Accordingly, if there are complaints, they simply score on them... The whole family is fine and fine... The owner of the hotel is boorish.
This is not only my opinion, although I rode with a positive attitude. Everyone we met there was shocked by what was happening.
Enjoy your holiday, but not in Rende.
