Settlement
Upon arrival at the hotel, a representative from Anex, instead of sending us to lunch (we still had time for lunch, it was 13:50, and lunch until 14:00), at first he played for time, then he took us on an "excursion" to SPA-center. We are tired and hungry after the road, what SPA center? ! And they wanted to make money! He began to tell fables that only today and only now we have the opportunity to buy a spa at half price for $25 instead of $50, then there will be no discounts. And whoever does not buy a SPA on the first day will not be able to visit the sauna and bath for free later. Although the description of the hotel states that these services are free and without the purchase of SPA services. The gym is closed during the quarantine.
After that, we waited another half hour for check-in ...clearly no one is in a hurry. In total, from the time of arrival at the hotel to the settlement took about 1 hour. They just gave us the key and told us which floor ...EVERYTHING ...no one showed us, let alone helped with the bags.
Hotel
Animation may have been, but we did not notice it. In the evenings, the noise from the stage was very disturbing. The music blared until 12 midnight, and sometimes longer. I can't imagine how you can relax here with children. Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel. More than half of the tourists are locals.
Number
Spacious, bright. The room had 1 double and 1 single bed, sofa, table, mirror, TV, wardrobe, refrigerator, balcony with table and chairs. Wi-Fi is available in every room (free of charge). Every day they give 1.5 liters of water to the room. During the week of stay at the hotel bed and towels were not changed.
Beach
It is located 3-5 minutes walk from the hotel. There is a beach with free sunbeds and a canopy. There was always enough space for everyone. Beach towels are not provided. The sea was dirty - rubbish floated from the beach. If you swim a little further, a wide strip of stone blocks begins, on which you can stand, but because of the waves you can injure your legs there. A couple of times stumbled in the sand on hooks for fishing.
The beach has a bar serving snacks and drinks. Nearby there are water attractions, shower, toilet.
Nutrition
Food is poured by restaurant workers. It is better to come to the beginning of the meal, because then the queues are longer. Fruits: watermelon, melon, grapes, apples, oranges, pears. Meat, fish, rice, potatoes, spaghetti, vegetables, various salads, sauces, soups, buns, cakes. There was enough food.
Excursions from the tour operator
I would like to leave special attention to excursions from the tour operator Anex tour. The representative at the Ravdan hotel sold us 2 excursions to Pamukkale (for 2 for $118) and Demre-Mira-Kekova (for 2 for $107).
P. S. : Initially, these excursions cost $65/person for Pamukkale and $59/person for Demre.
Since these excursions with an early departure, we skipped breakfast, and a late return, we did not have time for dinner, the hotel guide Ravdan said that the excursions included breakfast, lunch and dinner, which we really counted on. Since the hotel does not issue dry rations for excursions.
In fact, only lunch was included in Demre-Mira-Kekova. We didn't take any food with us. We arrived at the hotel hungry and angry. Ravdan promised to settle everything later, to find out...but nothing...the sediment remained.
On an excursion to Pamukkale, everything was in order with the food, there were the promised breakfast, lunch and dinner. This time, Ravdan double-checked everything, no matter what happened on the previous one.
But the conclusions have been drawn ...from this tour operator we will no longer go. Tourists everywhere want to make money. They promise everything and more just to sell the tour. And on each excursion they will be brought in on the way to shops, wineries, etc. , from sales in which the tour operator receives a percentage. Business is business. BUT because of these stops there was not enough time to enjoy the stay in Pamukkale. I recommend renting a car and driving on your own.
