Отлично отдохнули Have a great rest

I went, mom and son 1 year 9 months. The hotel is just right for families with children, in my opinion.
The travel agency offered this hotel on a special offer, so they didn’t really think about it, because. the price was very attractive, but after reading the reviews at home, after we bought the ticket, we were a little upset. Now I can say that I do not agree with many of the negative reviews.
So, we flew out of Kyiv. We always flew from Moscow, so Borispol airport shocked us. Everything is so ill-conceived, for some reason additional queues are created, everything is somehow not like with people. Anyway. Flew out. We had a small stroller with us, which would have fit like hand luggage in size and we wanted to take it with us to the aircraft cabin, but the flight attendants took it to the luggage compartment, promising that upon arrival it would be returned to us immediately. Alas, upon arrival, they didn’t immediately return it to us, and I had to drag a 12-kilogram child in my arms through the entire airport in Antalya. Moreover, it was not on the baggage carousel either. As a result, we found her quite by accident at the other end of the airport. Okay, put the child in the stroller, breathed a sigh of relief. They got on the bus. They brought us to Belconti at the beginning of the 10th morning. In the permit, the category of the room was "standard with a garden view", but oh, horror! we were given a room in the main building on the second floor overlooking the restaurant. Those. do not go out onto the balcony, do not put the child to sleep either during the day or in the evening. We ask for another number. We are asked to wait until 14:00. First we decided to wait. But seeing the exhausted child, at about 12 o'clock they could not stand it and asked for at least something, if only it was quiet there. They gave me a room in block D, the balcony was larger than in the first room, the view, however, was on some kind of solar panels, a side view of the trees. Believe me, we were just happy with this number compared to the first one. Yes, the view is not very, but always quiet.

Now about the hotel:
The food is good in my opinion. For breakfast, breakfast cereals, cold and hot milk, omelettes, scrambled eggs, sausages (though second-rate), cheeses, sausages, pastries, various sweet sauces (jams, peanut butter, etc. ), some vegetables, pancakes, vermicelli, etc.
For lunch: meat dishes, fish dishes, side dishes (potatoes, vermicelli, rice), soups, lahmacun or flatbread, lots of fresh vegetables and salads, pastries, fruits (oranges, grapefruits, plums). The meat was turkey, chicken, lamb, beef. The fish is bad, but you can eat if you want.
For dinner, in addition to the above (there were some dishes from lunch on a separate rack, there were new dishes on 2 other racks) there was also a grill and berries (watermelon, strawberries).
During the day you can grab pastries from the pool bar and burgers and fries near the beach. Also ice cream from 16 to 17. The pool bar opens at 10, but alcohol for those who wish from 12. Drinks are diluted UPI, but decent, very similar to ordinary store-bought juices from packs. Freshly squeezed juices for $3 for breakfast. Oh yes, a 4-course diet table - rice, boiled vegetables, boiled chicken or turkey (many mothers took broth for children from there) and something else, I don’t remember. Our child refused to eat from the diet table, at the end of the rest we generally allowed him to eat whatever he wanted, because. It only made him look healthier.
2 times went to a la carte - 1 time in Turkish, once in Italian. Turkish was very good. I especially recommend going there on a day off, because. large Turkish families come for the weekend and there is a Babylonian pandemonium in an ordinary restaurant. Didn't like Italian. By the way, be prepared for the fact that visitors with small children are not very welcome there.

The sea is normal, often strong waves, but it's nice to go in, sand under your feet. There is also sand on the beach, but despite the fact that there are signs all over the hotel asking not to bring anything in glass to the beach, Russo tourists still bring bottled beer, etc. , thanks to which I drove a huge glass into my leg, but there could be a child in my place.
As for tourists, I will say separately: 99% are immigrants from the CIS, mostly families with children, 1% are German pensioners. So, on the first day we were left without sunbeds, because. our tourists occupy sunbeds from 9 am (they would have occupied them from the night, but the hotel administration forbade it). From day one, we also occupied sunbeds from 8:45, otherwise we would simply not have got it. At the same time, many manage to take sun loungers not only by the pool, but also on the beach. And not only for themselves, but also for things. Although if it weren't for such a rush, there would be enough sunbeds for everyone.
Swimming pools 2 adults and 2 children. The most fun is by the pool without slides, where all the daily animation takes place. Chlorine was not felt, the water is always clean.
Animation during the day is normal, very nice animator girls who lead aqua aerobics and oriental dances. But I didn’t like the evening animation - I was there 2 times - once stupid contests. The host says: "I want a bra" - 1 person from the team runs around and asks those sitting in the hall for a bra. Either I'm getting old, or it's really stupid, vulgar and uninteresting. The second time was some unprofessional dance group. It got boring after 30 minutes. So in the evening it is better to find other entertainment. Very nice on the open veranda of the lobby bar, for example. Or you can go to a stake bar (near the large pool) or go to Belek. Once a week Turkish night.
We did not appreciate children's animation, it was still too early for us. But we liked the playground and the mini-club, it was impossible to take the child away.
The hotel area is very beautiful. Mulberries and apricots grow on the property. Many, apparently, do not know mulberry, therefore they do not tear it. Sheep periodically walk around the territory, nibbling bushes, geese, turtles crawling.

The staff is friendly, all very smiling and attentive, but the room was not cleaned well, despite the tip. Cleaning consisted of cleaning carpets with a vacuum cleaner and changing towels and bed linen, plumbing was not cleaned at all. Once there was no hot water, but after a call to the reception, a boy came running and turned on the water very quickly.
In general, I liked the hotel. Of course the rooms are in need of refurbishment. But the hotel grounds are very beautiful. In my opinion, the value for money is good. There are more luxurious hotels, but there prices are higher.
Oh yes, a few words about the Anex tour. Our return flight was scheduled at 15:00, but the day before departure, as happens with charters, we moved the time to 8:30. At the same time, it was necessary to leave the hotel at 5 in the morning, the child, respectively, to be raised at 4. And what was my indignation when, on the way to the airport, we were stopped at some store with sweets, where we spent 40 minutes! This has never been seen anywhere else.
We will no longer fly to this hotel, because. We don't like flying twice to the same place. Also, we will no longer fly from Kyiv and through the Anex-tour. But overall, I highly recommend this hotel. Have a good holiday everyone!
