отдыхали в Lagune vacationing in Laguna

I rested in June 2011 with my son and mother. The child is already suffering - what a pity that the vacation is over. They gave an excellent room, on the 4th floor, a long balcony overlooking the pool, 2 rooms, a living room, a kitchen.
The air conditioner worked perfectly, although in June it was not much needed - all windows were opened at night. I'm not used to sleeping with air conditioning, I'm afraid of getting sick. True, sometimes a mosquito flew through the window. Next time I'll take a raptor. Friends said that there are no mosquitoes in Turkey. It turned out that mosquitoes are poisoned in the city, I saw a special car drive and spray something into the air.
I liked the number. Everything worked except for one burned out light bulb. Cleaning every day, even towels changed. Everything is very clean. Very quiet in the hallway. 2 silent elevators. Near the mosque. She wakes up at 4:30. The first time I was a little shocked because of the volume, but then I got used to it, I got so tired during the day that I instantly fell asleep again.

The pool is small but deep - 1.80 meters deep, very heavily chlorinated. After the pool, the child was immediately sent to the shower. There were many children of all ages, although it seems to me that with very young children, a hotel closer to the sea is better.
Interestingly, Turkish children are so blond that I mistook them for Europeans. The contingent of the hotel is different, and Russian, and Turkish, and English are heard.
Breakfast is modest - juice, coffee, tea, milk, cereals, eggs, croutons, cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, herbs, olives, soy sausage, jam, pita bread, oranges.
Dinner is good, even overeat. Several types of greens, a lot of fresh and stewed vegetables, stuffed peppers, zucchini, mushrooms, beans, pasta, rice, potatoes, pita bread, sweet shortbread or balls, something in batter, 1-2 meat dishes, oranges.
The staff is unobtrusive, very polite. At the reception, the girl Marina speaks Russian, very smiling, always ready to help. When I complained that I could not go to the city because of the rain, I handed over a huge umbrella. Gave a business card of the hotel and a map of Antalya for free. (I had my own map printed from the Internet, which is not very convenient). Many thanks to Marina for her responsiveness and friendliness!
The business card helped a lot when I got a little lost and needed to ask for directions. I just showed it to the Turks and asked where to go.
Pegasus guide I found only towards the end of the holiday. He did not come to the meeting, they waited in vain. However, I did not plan paid excursions. The memories of the tour in Pomukkale 2 years ago are still alive. Only 3 hours were in Pomukkale (and there you need at least a day to see all the beauty) and 5 !! ! hours of shopping (onyx center, carpet factory, expensive textile store, sweet shop, wine tasting), I don’t need it at all and + is expensive.

I specially chose a hotel in the center of Antalya so that there was something to see. Near the hotel there are many shops, retail outlets, all sorts of cheap goodies. On the main streets a little more expensive. Water, fruits, food were brought to the hotel calmly, in a closed bag, despite the inscription - it is forbidden to bring food and drinks. My fridge was full of food. There were no problems with this. We also found a cheap market near the hospital. On the second floor there is a clothing market.
Money exchanged for lira. It turns out 18 rubles = 1 lira.
It is advisable to know a little English or better figures in Turkish. In Antalya, Russian is known worse than in Kemer.
The bus to the beach and from the beach carries 2 times a day, there was enough space for everyone.
You go down from the hotel towards the sea and you find yourself in the Ataturk Park. The park is very beautiful, long, above the rocks, there are many viewpoints. If you go to the right, you will reach the descent to the Konyalti beach. There is a museum nearby. You can go down the serpentine road, and we found a staircase leading straight to the rocks. They rarely walked. The sea is clear, clean, round small pebbles on the shore. The water is cold, especially near the shore. Probably due to groundwater. It gets deep fast. In the evening, there are often waves, sometimes rubbish is nailed by the surf.
If you follow the road along the beach, it is easy to walk to Minicity. It's like a museum-garden with small models of houses, mosques, sights of Turkish cities. I like it. Above Minicity is the Migros shopping center, but everything is expensive there. It is better to shop near the hotel. Between Migros and the sea there is a water park and a dolphinarium.
If you walk along Ataturk Park in the opposite direction, you will reach the singing fountains. Included 8:30-9:00. Very beautiful. Classical music. I also remember the Russian "Kalinka-Malinka", some other patriotic Turkish song. On the fountain, a projector displayed pictures with a portrait of the President of Turkey, a flag, a coat of arms. Behind the fountain, the old town of Konyalti begins with many attractions, shops, and a bazaar.
We took bus 31 to the Duden waterfall (from 100 yel street)
We returned back to 36. There is a park and a cave around the waterfall. Very beautiful.
Glad I chose this city center hotel. Not boring, because there are many things you can see for yourself. In the evening, we fell down from fatigue and impressions.
