Santai lives up to its 5 stars.

Don't worry, your stay in this hotel will not be spoiled. We have only the most pleasant memories. Second time in Turkey. Both my husband and I really enjoyed this hotel.

We rested together with my husband, we are 28 years old, since October 1.2005.
Huge tour operator. Everything is on time, comfortable, accurate, no overlays, and delays. Smiling guides accompanied us from and to, filled out the cards at the hotel themselves, escorted us to passport control upon departure.

Not bad. In my opinion, the hotel is suitable for a relaxing and comfortable stay.

Let me share some secrets first:

A) Be sure to visit the SPA Center. If you don’t feel sorry for $30, then go through the “KESE” procedure, you won’t regret it. You are given a peeling with a silk mitten, and then a soapy massage. To make it more interesting, you can choose a male attendant. They are more attentive. The skin after the procedure is silky for two weeks, and you relax. There are many other procedures out there.
B) Be sure to try Ayran = salted kefir. Very refreshing in the heat. They pour it in the Pool Bar and in the Turkish tent. We poured into a bottle of water and took to the beach.

C) Be sure to try the Turkish flatbread in the Turkish tent. They are not the most delicious there, which they could be, but they are exotic.

D) You can find natural juices only in the Vitamin Bar.

C) You can get to the Kadri village by tractor for $1 or by taxi for $14, the driver will be waiting for you while you go shopping. Prices should be brought down by 30% minimum. Bargain! I liked silver, gold, ceramics, cashmere. Very low quality bags - sucks.

E) In order for your safe to work, you need to insert the magnetic key into its door and leave it there. The key is received at the reception after filling out the card.

E) In order to change towels, throw them on the floor.

Hotel report:
1. Check-in at the hotel took about an hour.
We arrived at the hotel at 10 am, we were afraid that we would hang around for a long time, but at 11 we were already in the room, by this time we had breakfast. The room was standard - 24 sq. Metra, overlooking the sea. (No surcharge at the reception)
The room is clean and comfortable, without defects and breakages.

2. The territory is large and well-maintained. Everything is buried in greenery, which blooms in October and stinks pleasantly. The presence of greenery, when choosing a hotel, was my main wish.
The interiors of the hotel are great. Enjoyed, drowning in soft sofas. I want to note the presence of 4 pools. 1-covered. We only swam in the sea.

3. Staff. The day receptionist speaks Russian, almost all waiters speak and understand. The restaurant rustles quickly, I did not notice any sluggishness or preference for the Germans. Everyone is very attentive. The restaurant has a "Special Box" for tips.

4. Food: There were 2-4 types of meat every day (not chicken), I really liked the sweet baklava. Lots of greenery. Diet table.

At the end of the rest, my husband ate only fruits, and I only ate greens. There was practically no seafood. Never got poisoned.

5. Weather in Belek in October: How lucky! We arrived +17, rain; we were just in shock, but the next day it hit +30. The sea is steamy and relatively transparent. The beach is sandy and pebbly. At the entrance to the water, 2 meters of pebbles, then a clean bottom. It is better to sunbathe from 10-14, it is possible up to 16, then it is cool (you need to wear a shirt or put on a pareo), it gets dark at 19. I repeat - the sea is fresh.

6. The animation is unobtrusive, with a sports bias: the husband played football, volleyball. There were games of petanque and step-aerobics (in a secluded corner). Evening performances consisted of gags and professional dance numbers. Dancing is great, Gagi is bullshit. In general, not bad.

7. Room cleaning and replenishment of the mini-bar. All obligations were fulfilled, but without zeal. There is a reaction to the tip.

8. Alcoholic drinks: Tolerable. The husband drank campari, tequila, whiskey.

9. A la carte restaurants.
I really liked Chinese. I recommend menu #2. All meals are gone.

Disadvantages:
A) not enough seafood.
B) Cognac sucks
C) some people didn’t like how the paths in the territory were planned, but personally I don’t care.
