A good hotel for a relaxing family holiday. Friends recommended him to us. And my husband and I did not regret that we went. We rested from November 4 to November 12.
From Antalya it takes about 2 hours. Opposite the hotel there is an intercity bus station, if someone plans to travel to other cities on their own. There is also a public transport stop behind the bus station. For example, bus 2B goes to the Alanium shopping center and others. The fare costs 30 liras. The cable car to the fortress is a 20-minute walk from the hotel. A round-trip ticket costs 345 liras.
The hotel room is spacious, designed for a family of 3 people, each with a balcony. Women do the cleaning. Not perfect, but overall ok. Every day they removed the trash, brought drinking water and, if necessary, added shower gel, soap, and shampoo. The room has a small refrigerator, TV, air conditioning. When we asked to change the towels, they changed them right away without any problems.
The cuisine is varied.

During the week there was chicken, fish, lamb meatballs (!!! ). Garnish with pasta, mashed potatoes, French fries, various vegetables, salads. Soup is available for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Sweets are basically the same: in the morning it’s halva, waffles and Turkish delight, at lunch and dinner there are cakes with cream such as soufflé with sponge cake. Plus, from 15:00 to 16:00 you can assemble your own hamburger, and from 16:00 to 17:00 you can snack on cookies (3 types) with coffee/tea. The bar has light beer, red/white wine, various sodas, and cocktails. I think everyone can find something suitable for themselves. The employees and managers themselves eat in the same restaurant, so the cooks approach their work responsibly.
All the staff are friendly and polite, especially if you say hello or thank you in Turkish. The restaurant is mostly young people. They quickly clear the dishes and wipe the tables. Quite clean and tidy.
One evening there was a brief power outage in the area.
Within half an hour the generator was turned on in the hotel and everything was working as normal.
Entry into the sea in the area of ​ ​ the hotel is excellent. The stone slab there is flat and smoothly goes into the sand.
Of course, the hotel also has its shortcomings. Of the minuses, I would note the unpleasant smell coming from the shower siphon. As my husband (a plumber) said, this is because they installed a regular siphon without a water seal. We solved this issue by simply closing the bathroom door tightly.
We also lacked hooks for towels in the bathroom. There are only 2 of them on the door. We had to take a chair from the balcony to hang towels on. Perhaps it was only in our room.
Also for us, as non-smokers, it was unpleasant to breathe in tobacco smoke because of the tourists who were smoking on their balconies on the floor below. At night I had to get up and close the door to the balcony. There is also no division into smoking and non-smoking areas on the restaurant terrace.
It seems like there is an opportunity to eat in the fresh air, but those sitting next to you start smoking, and in the end you are forced to breathe smoke or go indoors.
Generally speaking, compared to other hotels, it is ideal value for money.
