Отдых в условиях карантина Rest in quarantine

We got to the hotel by accident, "thanks" to the quarantine. At first, Sharm was transferred to Kusadasi, and a day and a half before departure, they learned that the hotel on the Aegean Sea was closed and the vacation itself was covered with a copper basin))... but we managed to transfer the trip from Bodrum to the Antalya coast with incredible efforts, and find a more or less decent , at least according to the rating, the hotel... But in fact, due to all the transfers, we lost two days of vacation...
So - Long Beach... ))
We rested from July 7 for two weeks, as a family mom-dad-son (9 years old). We arrived early in the morning at Antalya airport, we traveled by bus a little more than two hours, with a stop at a Shell gas station + a local bazaar. Even on the bus, with the help of a guide, we managed to quickly and without any extra payments get a cool room (5237) - with a view of the sea, water parks, in general, the entire territory of the hotel. We were sent to have breakfast and settled immediately after breakfast. The room is small, but you can’t really call it small either - a room of 18 meters + a corridor + a bathroom. The beds are good, orthopedic mattresses, air conditioning worked properly, refrigerator, kettle, glasses - everything was there. There were slippers in the room, I begged for bathrobes for three days, then spat - they never brought it)))

The territory is not huge, but large, green, well-groomed. Many pools, there is a pool with sea water, 3 + water parks.
One water park near the hotel, 2+ - on the coastline. More from the free amusement park for children. Works from 19.00 to 21.00.
The access to the beach is very convenient. The beach is long-and-other - corresponds to the name of the hotel. Two piers, you can go down to the sea from the ladders, you can jump at the end of the pier - 2-2.5 meters to the water.
Beach and entry into the sea.
Many complain about the stones in the water under their feet, but if you go to the left corner of the beach, then there are no stones from the word at all... Local families with children often made their way there . . The sea was warm 29-30 Celsius - measurements were made by hand... not really transparent, but I'm afraid the hotelier cannot influence the purity of sea water . . ))
Nutrition. To be honest, I expected (due to quarantine) much worse. . . but you can get used to everything if you don't yawn)) There is a lot of food, quite tasty, some just edible. Special frills are not noticed, but everything is up to the mark. Everything was there - no one went hungry. The guys tried their best.
infrastructure around the hotel.
There are shops on the basement floor of the hotel, there are souvenirs, textiles, sweets on the street... everything is like everywhere else . . Well, what can I say about prices - bargain... Divide the price you named by two, and Allah will help you! ))) By the way, the same thing with the hotel guide and his tours. Somewhere in the middle between his and your figure, you will reach a consensus, bargain and shake hands! ))
To Alanya (20 km) there is a dolmush (a very decent clean bus with air conditioning) that costs 6 liras / 1 person. Lucky to the bus station in Alanya. Take the return bus there.
Currency exchange.
There are two ATMs in the bazaar below the hotel, you can withdraw in lira... be sure to indicate that you are changing from hryvnia to lira, bypassing the conversion into dollars... save on commission.

I like to change dollars in Migros at the checkout, the most favorable exchange rate.
Entertainment/Animation
They were, despite the quarantine, in full . . And children's animation and mini-disco . . And adult loud concerts with dances of vacationers until two in the morning... or three? And entertainment programs in the evenings, a circus, dogs, acrobats and jugglers - everything was... In fact, the fact that now the quarantine was visible only by the ammunition of the staff - masks, gloves, shields... Vacationers were not infringed on anything and were not bothered by anything - the mask was removed upon entering the hotel on the morning of arrival and put on when sitting on the same bus going to the airport.
Well, now about the main thing - can I recommend this hotel for a holiday and do I want to come back here again?
Definitely, I recommend it to families with children - here the children will not be on your head for the whole vacation, but in one of the three water parks, a children's room, an amusement park or a mini disco... And this is great! )))
Well, we would have come here again... we liked it! ))
