Large area, pine forest, many eucalyptus trees, . Animals - squirrels, turtles, lizards, hedgehogs. Large beach, enough free sunbeds on the beach.
The hotel was not completely full, which was very good while visiting the restaurant, the beach. There were always empty seats.
Disadvantages:
Few flowers.
The beach leaves much to be desired. Dirty sand, beds, mattresses, tables. Not very convenient shower for washing feet from sand. You don't see garbage collectors all day long. Garbage pots are poorly cleaned. The bars that are near the beach for 10 days are practically not working. In general, a sufficient number of bars and restaurants were built throughout the hotel, but apart from the pool bar and the central restaurant, nothing else worked. And in the bar, apart from Raki, vodka, beer, there was nothing else. For many years of vacation in hotels in Turkey, for the first time I met a hotel in which the famous Turkish cakes were not baked.
There was no snack during the day. Ice cream from 15-30 to 16-30, always a long queue.
A large number of small children, many were constantly yelling, both on the beach and in the restaurant, which greatly overshadowed a relaxing holiday.
In the neighboring Papillon-Belleville hotel, the restaurant provided separate areas for parents with children.
There was practically no animation. Pretty boring.
100% vacationers are Russians.
Central air conditioning (almost not felt his presence).
Do not leave the hotel in the evening. Empty, dark area.
Well, the most unpleasant thing that happened during all the days of rest was the environment of dissatisfied vacationers, who were brought every day, due to the non-acceptance of the hotels to which they were sent. Well, this is probably the fault of Coral Travel.
We flew back to Moscow with RED WINGS. Flight instead of the scheduled time at 18-15 was moved to 8-15 in the morning. Almost the whole day was stolen. It's a shame.
Everything else is just cons.
We were supposed to go to Crystal, but 12 hours before departure, they called us and said that this hotel would not be able to accept us (and they booked a week in advance) and there was only Altis. I had to agree. When I read the reviews at home, I was terribly upset, just hand over the tickets. (it was necessary to do so) Well, I thought, maybe people are very picky. Still a 5 star hotel…
Starting with air conditioning. This word does not even come close to what they have blowing there. They changed the room twice because hot air was blowing. It was cooler outside during the day than in the room. I can’t imagine how people rested there in August.
Food is a separate story. Turkey has always been famous for its buffet. In any case, I have been in Turkey 15 times already and have always been satisfied with the food. But in this hotel there are very few hot dishes. And they were probably prepared by a person who had no idea how to cook. If fish, then dry, if meat, then burnt and healthy salted. In general, meat dishes are presented in the majority of semi-finished products. I am calm about meat products, but my husband was hard. I won’t say anything about the sweet table - I don’t like it. From fruits - watermelons, plums, absolutely tasteless melons, grapes. Grilled in the evening (one dish) Lord, the grill is small, and the smoke is on the whole territory. You spend the whole dinner in this smog.
We stopped going to breakfast on the 4th day. I thought it was 5 stars. the hotel could fry in the morning, if not pancakes, then scrambled eggs and scrambled eggs.
At the expense of alcohol was only beer, wine, vodka. Have not tried.
In the first days of our arrival, people were brought from all hotels in connection with Ramadan. 4 days was a complete horror. The queue for all dishes is 15-20 minutes. And then you stand with a plate and there really is nowhere to sit. Then somehow many parted and it became freer
In general, this is a topic when people were supposed to be brought to other hotels, but they were brought to Altis. People were sincerely sorry. They paid quite a lot of money and had to go to Arcadia, Papilone and others, and they were brought to this sump. Some did not want to check into a hotel and spent the night at the reception. They created some initiative groups, but this did not help much. It was a pity they were terrible. After all this, I vowed to go at least to Turkey with the company Coral. It is still a mystery to me how they can refuse a hotel if the room has been paid for and confirmation has come?
There was no animation either. One guy was running around, calling for volleyball, some competitions in the evening. Went a couple of times and almost fell asleep. Naturally, the Turkish night and day of the hotel was not even envisaged
The beach is really very dirty. At the expense of the toilet, which is far from the beach, but you can quickly find it by smell. I generally keep quiet. It seems to me that it is removed only closer to the night. Public station toilets are then samples of cleanliness.
The a la carte restaurant was not promised - everything was closed. Juices, Turkish coffee, even for the money there. There was some kind of water, compared to which UPI is a divine drink.
PEOPLE! DON'T BELIEVE THE GOOD REVIEWS. Even 4 to put this hotel you need to have a very rich imagination. Maybe not so it would be a shame if it was a 3-star hotel and the price was lower. Still, for two for 9 days, I think 76.000 is a bit too much in the absence of service. If offered this hotel do not hesitate to refuse. Do not spoil your vacation for your own money. It is better to pay extra and go to a really 5-star hotel. Hotel. Compared to this hotel, there are very decent 4-3 stars. Hotels where the price is much less.
The food is delicious, a lot of fresh vegetables and fruits. Just a feast of the stomach, no indigestion... Attentive staff... The room was cleaned almost every day, although tips were left only 4-5 times for 2-5 dollars.
Entertainment is not intrusive... You can always find a quiet and secluded place... They are engaged with children, entertaining events are held...
A good place for those who are tired of the metropolis... The service is not intrusive, but everything is on time.
Too bad there is no playground.
