Rested with my husband in September 2018, still in shock. Special thanks to our travel agent, they asked for a sandy beach, to which they answered: sandy beaches are usually chosen by families with small children, and sand and pebbles will do for you! Well, we did not know what a pebble beach was and agreed. A ticket for two cost 130 thousand (one month before departure). We arrived at the hotel at 9 am, had time for breakfast, we were offered to either wait 12 hours or pay for a room with a sea view for $30. They took it with a sea view (as it turned out later, last years these sea views were free, and this year the prices are different for everyone - from a bulldozer, someone takes $ 25, acquaintances generally threw $ 10 and settled them). The rooms are the most ordinary, in principle, there are a lot of photos on the Internet. Everything is standard. No bathrobes, slippers, toothbrushes, pastes. There is a liquid soap dispenser in the bathroom and a gel/shampoo dispenser in the shower. 3 towels per person (Beach is issued separately). The room is cleaned badly. Dust, dirt... even the toilet brush was in a foreign city. The room has a kettle, tea bags, coffee, sugar. Half a cup of water. The first 2 days they didn’t give water, they bought it themselves, then they started giving out a bottle every day (if they drank the old one). Just visiting tourists are beginning to spud a man who advertises a bathhouse, a spa. The prices here are also from the bulldozer, we went for $ 50, our friends were lucky for $ 45 (foot massage with fish-sauna-hammam-massage-salt room) the salt room is generally tin, the salt fell off along with the plaster) after the massage - mask on the face, delicious tea and a lecture about the benefits of massage and that here we can get a massage course -5 sessions for only $85. It's discounted, so $100. Restaurant: the first 5 days I was sick of this cuisine, probably out of habit, then I liked everything very, very much. Enough variety, tasty. In principle, the products are the same, but cooked differently. From meat: chicken, local fish, once there was fried trout, beef, lamb, turkey were rare. There was a barbecue at dinner. Skewers, struganina, grilled vegetables. In general, there are no complaints about the restaurant, I liked it very much. True, the fruits came across rotten, well, no one forced them to eat. And the cake is just divine. In the evenings there were big cakes and small pastries. For lunch, only pies, but a lot of variety and sooooo delicious. The hotel area is small. The pool is clean. There is a children's pool and water slide. The water is cool (the sea is warmer). Bar near the pool and on the beach. Drinks: beer, wine, vodka, crayfish, cocktails, all sorts of whiskey-cola, or you can ask to mix something.
Beach: sun loungers with umbrellas, volleyball net, pier. Sand comes first, pebbles closer to the water. It is very, very unpleasant to enter without special shoes. Place for "entry" into the sea a few meters, carved out of stone. Therefore, almost everyone bathes in a pile. For comparison, they were on the beach in Alanya: sand, nearby palm trees, flowers, showers, toilets. There is simply nothing to see here, at the very least, thanks to at least the water is clean, transparent. For 10 days we took 2 excursions, had a little fun. The hotel itself is boring. No animators. In the morning, 10 minutes of water gymnastics, in the evening at 21 o'clock children's animation (every single day is the same), then some sluggish entertainment for adults (drunken karaoke, dance performance of local schoolchildren..... ) Nothing at all. From 21 to 23, strong drinks are served at the bar, but you can already have your own snack or buy it. And at the same time, the begging for tips begins. They pour a glass of $1 or $2, sort of as a joke, but you see someone is paying. And our friend came up for a drink, they told him: it was over. He gave money, they poured him. However, if you describe the situation with tips, it is very long. The Turks cash in on everything they can. Especially the tradition of paying the driver for paid excursions. . . Or lunch is included in the cost of the excursion, and drinks (even water) from $1. Nothing to do outside the hotel either. Shops with horse prices, designed for tourists. Look at nothing. Village in one word. In Alanya, for example, it’s interesting to walk along the street and there are a lot of shops, with normal prices, if it’s on sale, then it’s cheap, and not panties for $ 10 for tourists.
Generally a 3-4 star hotel. Rest here is better for pensioners. Quiet, calm. Ate, bought, slept. Again, poor vision, you can not see how badly removed. The bed linen was torn once, the beach towels we also once got stained and torn. By the end of the rest, balls of dust were rolling on the floor.
