WE HAVE TRIED TO MAKE THE MOST DETAILED REVIEW...

We specifically went to this hotel for three days to check the quality.
FLIGHT: Transaero (Boeing-747)
LOCATION:
At the beginning of the Belek resort area, closest to the airport, Kadriye district (6 km), it takes exactly 18 minutes to drive from the airport (if you have a car). On the left is the Sirene Golf-5 * hotel, on the right - Barcelo Tat Beach - 5 *. After the hotel left the MAGIC LIFE chain, the hotel was transferred to the management of the Swiss Golf Company (one owner with the Sirene Hotel). The level of service has become a little lower. And the prices, respectively, too.
HOTEL:

Consists of the main building. Very interestingly made, in the shape of the letter V, facing the sea. Floors 8-9. The floors go in ledges towards the sea, gradually descending...Transparent elevators, it's great to take pictures from them. Many rooms have a sea view. It is convenient to go to the restaurant, it is on the first floor. The kitchen doesn't smell at all. In addition, there is a complex of 2-storey bungalows, everything is in greenery, there are mostly family rooms.
When you arrive, it seems that the reception is a little uncomfortable, like a courtyard, but after an hour you forget about it
NUMBERS:
In the main building they are small (no more than 20 sq. m. , including the corridor and the bathroom), so if you take for 3 people and need an extra bed, you will feel cramped in the room. The balconies are also tiny, one chair hardly fits. The floor is carpeted, everything else is standard. Plumbing is not old. Of course there are flaws, but do you have any at home? Mini-bar is filled upon arrival and then replenished every 2-3 days. Sea view rooms will get hot in summer so see what you ask for. Replacement numbers and no money is made. Guides help with this. Since the rooms go like a ladder, on each floor the last room has its own large terrace with an umbrella, there are quite two sunbeds placed there. So there is a solarium ...
BUNGALOW is a 2-storey building in the shape of a square, inside there is a garden and doors to the rooms, and balconies go to the outside. Family rooms Very comfortable: a corridor with a closet, a bathroom with a shower and two doors to different rooms (vest), in each room there are 2 1.5 beds. So the child can be put in one room and closed. Two air conditioner controls in each room. Balcony 1 x 2.5 meters, three sit freely. Each bungalow has its own name. The closest to the sea is called Side. The safe in the room is free electronic. TV seems to be Channel One and music, but that was enough, because you turn it on only as a background when you are going ...There is also a building of family rooms, which stands at the farthest end from the sea, it will be good for athletes here: the windows overlook the tennis court.
TERRITORY
As in any hotel in Belek Big and Green.
Between the main building and the sea there are 2-3 pools, quite large, including one relaxation (without children), animators constantly hold various activities in the pool, the language, in short, is not boring.

Large wide lawns, where you can also sunbathe. Straight meadows. There is a relaxation zone, there is a silized waterfall, herons walk, hammocks hang. The idyll is complete. Turtles crawl freely everywhere. The pool bar is open until 24:00 and hosts live music evenings in the evenings.
There is enough space for everyone. On the right side there is an arcade of shops, including leather, clothes, everything necessary for women (creams, lotions, etc. ) Here, they sell cherries, watermelons all day ...Three water slides work by the hour, the kids do not get out of them. There is still a pub, open until midnight, located on the first floor, stylized as an Irish Pub, beer and cocktails ...WIFI zone on the first floor of the main building, internet is free.
At five o'clock in the pool bar cakes and tea. In short, the food is all right, do not bother.
SERVICE
The entire staff is divided into two parts: those who stayed with Magic Life and newcomers. Old-timers know 2-3 languages, including Russian, they are getting old enough, but they are waiting for money anyway. Newcomers do not know languages, but they also try. The door handle fell off in our room, after 5 minutes they came, did it ...We gave 3 dollars. Then they all went side by side: they checked the electricity, plumbing, filled the bar, brought extra towels ...In short, they used any excuse to come and earn money. But if you really need something, they will do it quickly. Well, give them 50 rubles (2 dollars), they will smile at you for another 2 days.
BEACH:
Big and wide. The entrance to the sea is gentle, everywhere there is fine sand, only small pebbles always wash right next to the water.

But it’s not scary, it’s more unpleasant that the sand is very hot, so without slippers you can walk 2-3 steps and already want to go back. Sunbeds, as usual in Russia, are occupied from 6 in the morning (I’m not lying! ), I came to take pictures of the sea in the morning, so the sunbeds on the first line by the sea were tied up with some rags, almost signed ...SCOOP! Well, that's not a problem either. Sunbeds lie in three rows under large awnings. We just dragged sun loungers from somewhere and put them right by the sea, it is always free there. It’s just unpleasant to see our compatriots frantically bandaging 2-3 sunbeds with their pareo and still swearing that, they say, it’s short, there aren’t enough sunbeds for 5 … A lot of them with children, they hang out with each other and play together, dig in the sand. There is a VIP zone (50 euros per day), a separate shed, soft pillows, waiter service. Free entertainment: you can rent a catamaran, pedalo, canoe. Well, volleyball, of course, boccia.
The bar on the beach regularly supplies everyone with drinks, there are no queues, because everything is given quickly. On the second day, if you drink the same thing, the waiter pours without words. Well, here, too, every 2 days we only left $ 1 each. From the pier you can dive or sunbathe on the pier, there are also sun loungers, rocked to eat with a hammock. They go out of the restaurant once every 2-3 days, they put on a show. We went with a large cart with cucumbers and treated everyone. . Well, it's cool to eat a cucumber on the beach))).
ENTERTAINMENT (DAY AND EVENING):
•Animation by the pool, archery, all kinds of entertainment on the beach
•Animation performances in the amphitheater in the evenings (not every day)
•Live music at the pool bar
• Disco-evenings on the beach near a lit fire and clips on the big screen (after dinner until one in the morning, until the fire goes out))).
•Disco on the minus-first floor in the main building, from 23:00 to 03:00. Small place but crowded with a lot of people
PURCHASES:
Everything you need is in the hotel, 4-5 shops, souvenirs, clothes, leather, jewelry. Prices are 2 times higher than in Kadriye (village 5 km). T-shirts 5-15 dollars, jeans 20-60. Gold 35 dollars / gram. In Belek (10 km) things are of better quality, but also 30-40 percent more expensive
SPORT:
There are six tennis courts + a bar on the courts. Artificial grass, rebound slow, for dummies. But the socks are clean. All courts - with lighting. Also beach volleyball, us tennis, free surfing, boccia, archery. There is something to do, there would be a desire.
HOLIDAYERS:
Our entire Soviet Union in various manifestations. Since the prices for the hotel have decreased, then the parent and grandmothers with children and the middle class come here for a long time. Russian overwhelming number. There are foreigners, but they are somehow imperceptible. But drunken companies are unnoticed, quiet and calm. Corporates sometimes come, because there are conference rooms.

WHAT IS FOR CHILDREN:
•Children's Russian-speaking animators, the girls are trying.
•Large children's section in the pool
• Three or four playgrounds with swings, houses and grass
•Water slides in the pool (two curlicues, two straight)
•Separate tables and chairs in the restaurant, their own "mini buffet", children aged 2-6 years old sit at round tables themselves.
•Stall with cotton candy, popcorn and boiled corn (2e)
• A real sweets shop (open until 22:00), toffees, lollipops, sweets are the same as they sell in Mega.
•Mini-zoo (rabbits, different animals in cages)
•Ice cream at certain hours for free
•Slot machine room (chargeable but fun)
CONCLUSION:
1. Inexpensive quality 4+ hotel in Belek. This is already very good.
2. the hotel is good for the MIDDLE class and parents with children (a lot of services for children).
3. If you give 1-2 dollars here and there, then in two days you will be treated well and everything will be in order.
4.
In order to have a normal rest, in addition to AI, you also need to use a system of paid services: good whiskey, cakes, breakfast in the room, freshly squeezed juice ...Well, let it take 20-30 dollars a day, but it's nice ...We're on vacation!
We will be happy to tell you what you forgot to write and we will select a tour, if necessary.
