Замечательный отель Wonderful hotel

On August 15.2012, at about 9 o'clock, a Sanmar tour bus took me to the Laguna Hotel. Check-in took no more than 10 minutes and I ended up in "my" room. Since the flight was at 4 am from Yekaterinburg, I had no strength and really wanted to sleep. After a short rest, I went to look for the beach, since the bus that takes you to the beach left at 9:30, and the next one at 13:00. The sea turned out to be nearby, but the shore is rocky and there is a park on the shore. Taking pictures of everything and twisting my head to remember the way back to the city beach, I reached the city in half an hour. The beach is a pebbly strip of small pebbles, then large. In 2007, I was vacationing in Beldibi, where the beach is full of stones of all factions, which poke my feet from all sides and turn the rest into hell. After that "rest" I did not think about going to Turkey with my foot. But this year the prices jumped up and there was not much to choose from. My vacation cost me 32 thousand rubles for 10 days. Therefore, I had to go here where seaside holidays, shopping and a cultural program are combined - sightseeing. After sunbathing and swimming, since it was the first day of my stay in Antalya, I didn’t know where the hotel bus stops, so I had to go back on foot, overcoming the climb up the mountain along the serpentine, which meandered like a snake and increased the path two or three times. But I had to enjoy the views from such a height. Entertainment in the evenings - at a distance of 10 minutes walk was the Gulyuk shopping street, where the bulk of tourists buy clothes, gifts for relatives and friends. Walking through the shops, where in August they make discounts on many goods, I went to watch the "singing" fountains, the performance starts at 21 o'clock. I was in Barcelona and Dubai and there I already saw a show of "singing" fountains, but there was a trick here - during the performance of a song (something patriotic, judging by the reaction of the Turks), images of state leaders and national attractions were projected onto the fountains. Singing fountains, the old town and the Evely Minoret, Andrian's Gate attractions that are 15 minutes walk from the hotel. There you can walk along the streets of the old city, buy souvenirs, tea, various spices, take pictures against the backdrop of historical monuments and simply beautiful nature. On the second day of my arrival, I visited the archaeological museum in Antalya, which was located on the road to the beach exactly in the middle of this path. The entrance ticket costs 15 lire. An electronic guide can be purchased for an additional fee. We walked around the museum for about 2 hours. Interesting. There are many parks in the city, it is pleasant to walk under the shade of trees or just sit on the benches. I also liked the mini-city there, the only ambassador was about 10 o'clock and walked in the open air for a couple of hours, there is no place to hide from the sun, it is better to go there in the evening. Nearby is an aquarium, water park, amusement park and Migros shopping center. You can walk from the hotel in 40 minutes, or you can take a regular bus in 5 minutes. . But walking on foot you admire the parks where ducks swim and rabbits run. And not much about the hotel itself, the hotel itself is very decent, clean, the bed linen is snow-white, no insects were noticed. calmly carried drinks and food, fruits, no one said a word. Naturally, the food was kept in the refrigerator along with local bar offerings, but where would she be when it was 40 degrees outside. The air conditioner worked properly, I set it to 17 gr. I woke up at night from the cold. The temperature is adjustable, which one you need and set. Meals, but there is little meat, but there are various salads. In the morning, as in other hotels, eggs, several types of cheeses, sausages are tasteless, there are dry breakfasts. In the evening, salads, and meat - there were several times chicken, kebab is similar to our stew with meat and there is a lot of meat in it, stuffed eggplants with meat. Meat dishes were present every day. Fruit - watermelon. But the Friday market comes and there are peaches and figs for 2 liras or 34 rubles. per kg. Lots of shops nearby, shop and enjoy your holiday. The staff is very friendly, but not intrusive and speaks Russian, Marina works almost every day, who will tell you where everything is. Where is the best place to change money? How and where is the best way to get there. The only guy at the reception does not speak Russian, but "on the fingers" if necessary, you can explain yourself. No language barrier issues. The holiday went well, which I did not expect. If you are surrounded by children and want to lie on the beach all day and sip alcohol, there is nothing for you to do here. And if you combine relaxing on the beach, shopping and excursions, this hotel will suit you and its price is relatively low. Disadvantages - the bus to the beach 3 times at 9 30.13, and 1.30, that is, they will be taken and picked up in the morning, and stomp from the beach in the evening. Well, food, more meat and fish, except for watermelon, there would be something else.
