The cuisine is very diverse, there is a lot of meat, there are excellent dishes, there are so-so, but this is a matter of taste, the main thing is to choose from. I liked the fact that different chips were arranged for dinner, for example, they arranged an evening with crayfish or a sushi dinner. And once the cooks sang an operatic aria for us (although I suspect that they were professional singers dressed as cooks, they sang painfully well). Swimming pool with a slide, constant animation, between lunch and dinner, everyone on the sun loungers of the pool was treated to either ice cream or corn. Competitions at the pool all the time.
On the beach from 9 a. m. to 3 p. m. it’s almost impossible to lie on a sunbed, everything is busy, but then it’s easier... I liked that the all-inclusive also includes a sauna, a Turkish bath and a hammam with the hotel’s indoor pool in the spa area. A large gym is also included, but did not work at the time of the quarantine. We liked to relax in this hotel, especially not far from the cable car, shopping centers and the airport - because the hotel is in Antalya)) And to describe a little of our emotions, I concocted videos about this hotel))
"Porto Bello 5 *" city-type hotel, located in a residential area of the city of Antalya (towards Kemer), in the "Liman" area. Located on the first coastline on the beautiful beach "Konyaalti". A comfortable underground passage leads to the beach, right from the pool area. Right there in the transition, perfectly equipped, there are showers, washbasins with mirrors and dryers, and excellent toilet cubicles... everything is clean, modern, serviceable and in excellent condition. There is also a "cold shower" on the beach itself and around the pool. All this creates an atmosphere of comfort, coziness and good mood.
The beach itself is large, wide, pebbly. I did without special beach slippers. Pebbles are medium and small... quite acceptable for a bare foot. I counted 96 "fungi" on the beach next to them 192 deck chairs (3 spans of 8 fungi along the length of the beach and 4 rows in width). In front of the "fungi" to the sea is an empty strip of beach 6-7 meters. Always full of empty seats. There is a good bar on the beach, chair tables with soft pillows... beer, cola, tea and coffee... closer to 12 o'clock sandwiches, and from 15. . 16 ice cream (all inclusive).
The hotel has excellent customer service. I arrived early in the morning (at 8 o'clock) and immediately went to the dining room, and then, without delay, was settled in a good standard room with a balcony on the 8th floor overlooking the sea and the pool. In the room, all personal belongings are free - these are: a safe and a mini-bar with daily replenishment (a bottle of beer, a can of cola, a can of fruit tea, two bottles of water, two bottles of mineral water). The room is spacious with two armchairs and a glass table, TV (three Russian channels, "Channel 1").
Now the Canteen (the so-called "main restaurant"). "Buffet" with a large selection of appetizers, a lot of greens, salads, a lot of olives, cheeses, eggplants, zucchini and peppers in various variations and more. other. There are always two types of soup (for breakfast, lunch and dinner)... one of the soups is traditionally Turkish, the second is according to the European standard.
Always fish (delicious, but very bony), one of the dishes is meat (meatballs, goulash... or kebab), one of the dishes is poultry (chicken or turkey). For dinner, as a rule, they do something on the grill...
Great variety of desserts. Very tasty cakes with fruit dessert. Fruit was, but not yet the season... tasteless. For dinner, watermelon and melon.
Peculiarity. At lunch, in the main hall, there is no tea or coffee. Drinks, without limitation (beer, cola, wine, juices, etc. ) are brought by waiters who constantly come to the tables and ask what else to bring you. They even bring ayran. You can also bring your own drink if you wish. In the large hall, where the reception, all day, until 24 hours, all drinks are served. It is very pleasant to drink delicious coffee with nuts.
There are a la carte restaurants in the hotel (on the menu). These restaurants are not included in all incl. I didn't visit them. . .
I recommend the hotel to those who want to get a comfortable beach holiday, while at the same time being in a large resort city, which is Antalya. The minus of the hotel is a great distance from the main entertainment center, from "Kaleichi", and the hotel does not have its own park area. This is a city hotel. For those who are used to walking around the hotel with a large park area, "Porto Bello 5 *" is clearly not suitable. After all, this is a city hotel.
I liked everything in this hotel, I had a great 19 days in sunny Antalya!!! !
When we were going to this hotel, there were very few reviews, so I will write in detail for those who travel to Turkey and this hotel for the first time. LOCATION: very good, you can see the sea right from the window, you can see your own beach (a small underground passage leads to it, as there is a busy road nearby, but this does not interfere with rest at all). There is a big pool. The hotel is not located in the center (20 minutes public transport. ), but you can easily get everywhere from it. Wi-Fi catches everywhere, but when a lot of people sit in the evenings, it gets a little dull. The animation is unobtrusive, every evening a concert, then a show.
ROOM : not very big , but you can not hear the noise from the street . If you put a green card on the bed (it hangs on the handle in the bathroom), then they will change the linen for you, so that they change the towels - just throw them on the floor. Towels are provided separately for the beach. The bar is replenished every day. FOOD : what is called goodbye figure , many things and for every taste .
SHOPPING: guides always offer a shopping tour, and take you to pretentious shops, where prices are inflated by...... times. So it's better to refuse and organize your own shopping: leave the hotel, turn right, then left and to the end, where the busy highway begins, turn left and you will see a glass stop, you need a KL 08 bus, sit down and pay 2 lira (they take and in dollars, but it's expensive) and go to the WAIKIKI store, the bus stops right in front - and you are on a busy shopping street. The WAIKIKI store itself has democratic prices and there is where to roam, here, by the way, you can pay in dollars, the exchange rate is good. By the way, it’s better to pay in lira, of course they are happy to take dollars, but they consider the exchange rate extortionate, so it’s better to go down the street from WAIKIKI and see the exchanger, the normal rate is 1 dollar = 2.73-2.75 lira). In general, here you can buy everything from T-shirts to gold. BARGAIN, you can bring down the price by 30-40%. To get back to the hotel you need to go to the opposite side from WAIKIKI and go up to the ring and traffic lights, turn left and go to the glass stop. If you want to go to the MIGROS shopping center, the same bus stops right in front of MIGROS. But the prices there are exorbitant, but buy the same as near WAIKIKI. Although here you can visit MANGO, ZARA, WAIKIKI. The prices are democratic. On Tuesdays in this area there is a bazaar (they have them moving). Do not be afraid, I am writing this for a long time, but everything is close - slowly 10-15 minutes. You have to go to the bazaar in the afternoon, they sort out the goods for half a day. Well, like everything, this is my vision. Who wants to find a negative, will always find it, even in 5 stars. hotels. Therefore, do not get hung up on trifles, relax and have fun, and do not look for cons. PLEASANT REST ALL, IF YOU ASK, ASK.
It is noticeable that the owner of the hotel has changed. Some of the automatic doors from the hotel stopped working and were replaced with normal ones. And a couple of little things. The image has been changed. Most importantly, there are all sorts of cafes or something interesting nearby. Here you need to go to the interesting, but there are a couple of tasty places nearby. On tourist forums they write about this hotel as a bit pretentious, and that people travel too businesslike - I disagree. And, of course, Spa on the level. I flew with the tour operator Moda Cafe. The tour is good, this trip turned out to be a wonderful holiday.
but after spending a day there, I realized that it was a wonderful choice for my wife. It was she who looked through all the neighboring hotels and reviews about them and "hit the top ten" and the service and the hotel itself and its territory, and especially the beach area, cannot be compared with the neighboring ones and close.
Previously rested in Sri Lanka and Thailand - but not in the city. And here with the child there was no particular choice and had a great time and walked around the city - and here the outskirts are quiet and cozy and the center took a ride on buses with and without a stroller - no problems and went to Kimer and Phaselis on regular buses - in short everything is fine. We had an all-inclusive tea, coffee, local alcohol in the lobby - whatever you want, as well as a sauna, a Turkish bath, swimming pools - do not refuse anything - and ice cream from 14-16 by the cafe by the sea for your vacationers and concerts in the evenings.
And also a shop there http://maps. yandex. ua/-/CVrl5-nQ
best prices and super nice seller - recommend this hotel.
