We rested in Rio Kaya Belek with a large family with three small children. 8 years 4.5 and 1.9. From June 23 to July 2. I always approach the choice of a hotel carefully. I chose according to the reviews of last year, before the flight I read negative reviews. I started writing a review back at the hotel, especially in detail because I myself am looking for such informative reviews. The hotel is close to the airport with children who can hardly endure the road is a plus. The territory is not small, not comfortable, everything is very scattered, but beautiful. There are many flowers, they smell pleasant in the evening, various palm trees, many oranges, lemons, and other southern plants. We didn't see turtles, but there were a lot of cats. Now the hotel itself. It looks like the hotel hasn't been refurbished in a long time. The rooms, I’ll say right away, I’m not an auditor, and I won’t pay attention to the little things and describe them, how is it possible because 5 stars. Yes, there are stains, the bathtub is a bit beaten, but it’s unpleasant, but these are trifles, otherwise everything is clean, the rooms are spacious,
so that you understand, at 5 it was not crowded for us, the staff provided for everything, everyone had a bed + a crib for an infant. Of course, the baby didn’t want to sleep in the crib, the three of us slept on a double bed, but the two bed was big. The mattresses are good, there are no stains anywhere, mattress toppers are everywhere, I would like to say separately about the pillows, I see this for the first time. Attention there is a menu of pillows! Orthopedic with memorial foam (just super), feather quill, microfiber pillow, and pillow with silicone balls, also written what each does. We had huge pillows upon check-in, very uncomfortable, a call to the reception and after 10 minutes they brought orthopedic pillows. Be prepared for the fact that if you ask in Russian, they will not understand you, (or rather, they will pretend) ask in English. The bathroom has towels, liquid soap, shower gel, washcloth, cotton swabs, cotton pads. If you need room slippers (parquet in the room), bathrobes, toothbrush and toothpaste,
then feel free to call the reception desk, they will bring you everything, they even brought a razor and shaving gel to my husband. You can also ask for a potty for a child, we asked but didn’t understand the roofing felts, in general they didn’t bring it. The room was on the 1st floor with a side sea view, I booked for 2-3 and at first we were upset, but unexpectedly we found a huge plus, because the room is located above the lobby in the room with excellent Wi-Fi. At night, the air conditioner is noisy downstairs and buzzes, plus crows yell in the morning. So if the children are a light sleeper, take the odd numbers, the even numbers go out to Kaya Palacio. Cleaning in the room is normal, it happens every other day, but it's worth paying tribute: the maid quickly remembered when the child was sleeping and tried to clean on time. Textiles are top notch as always. Noise isolation is weak. To post a lot of video numbers on youtube. Further. The territory of the water park is not very large, but everything is thought out for children, I would like to say separately about the pool in the form of a pirate ship with slides,

I also posted a video on youtube, otherwise the review turns out to be huge, there are adult pools they wrote a lot about them, everything is clean, they constantly take care of the territory. The beach is large, but I see such dark sand for the first time, because of this, all the beauty of the sea is lost, and you also encounter the strange behavior of many people (Slavs), they throw towels, but they themselves are not there until the evening, you come and the picture: everything is busy, but a lot of people no. Beach. Sand, little pebbles, smooth sunset for children, paradise, magic water, a lot of fish. Swimming is better closer to Kaya Palacio, there are fewer people. Food. You can write about food for a long time, everyone has their own preferences, so I’ll say this: you can’t try a lot of everything, at first you want everything, but then everyone will find their favorite dish. Briefly. For breakfast, omelettes are different with vegetables / sausage, eggs in all variations, sausages, several types of ham, several types of sausage, olives, black olives, delicious cheeses, a sea of ​ ​ pastries,
for children there are three milk porridges - rice, oatmeal, semolina. There is cream soup. there is also a video about breakfast. Lunch and dinner are similar, there are a lot of things, but I would like to note that there is always seafood, several types of the freshest fish (trout, bye, mackerel, sea bass, sea bream), crab salad just a song and mussel salad, sauté ed seafood with shrimp, mussels and squid, separately squid rings, saute vegetables from lamb, beef, chicken (alternate) you can safely give them to children, they are not peppery, but in general you need to try everything yourself, but the meat is seasoned with many spices, spicy, there are mashed potatoes and Definitely a masterpiece. Many types of pizza, pide, pasta, and sauces for them, cream soups. A huge number of vegetables, vegetable salads from tomatoes and cucumbers to various variations with them + there is a separate table with pickled vegetables. Sauce, and salad with mayonnaise.
There is also a diet food all without salt and oil, there are boiled vegetables, cereals, potatoes, boiled turkey. Dear moms, if you are looking for the soup you are used to, you will find it in the pasta section for lunch and dinner called spaghetti soup, in our opinion it is chicken vermicelli soup, very good. Try cream soups, they are delicious, but tomato soup is very sour and there is soup with mint after it, my daughter flatly refused cream soups. There are a lot of fruits, watermelon, nectarines (sour ones come across), plums, cherries / strawberries, melons, apricots, apples, tangerines, bananas, pears, grapefruits. Bread for every taste, in the morning Fresh orange juice for free, the rest of the juices are like yuppies, I didn’t give the children. Plenty of cocktails and milkshakes, including picut gezmele on the beach. You can’t take it out with you, but since the children are sometimes capricious, then they bathe and hungry you can take cookies and fruits, no one will say anything. You can take water and ayran. Saturday fish day
a lot of Turkish-style sushi, and they baked a huge salmon, very tasty, the children ate, and they were also brought. for lunch and dinner there is chilled white and red wine. if you speak English well, they will bring very good wine, ask in a green bottle, one of the best wines in Turkey, served to your own and only to foreigners. Girls, I’ll tell you right away about mashed potatoes, because Many children love it, mashed potatoes are here, this is our mivina, it’s powdered, if you want to take potatoes in the dietary department, add butter and crush. It's all about little kids. Oh, and there’s a lot of fast food, all of us love it, it’s a hamburger, french fries, for us it’s not food, sometimes once a month it’s possible, but for the sake of justice I’ll say that they fry in fresh oil and constantly change it. There is also Chinese cuisine, but we did not try it. I would like to once again note the quick service and snow-white tablecloths, clean plates and glasses, as well as cutlery. Animation. IT IS NOT.

especially for children!! ! For all the time the children were not approached not once !!!! ! I’ll say that we didn’t want to push the children away, it’s just that my daughter makes applications and sculpts with pleasure, and here it is... MINI DISCO. It’s a shame for the children, two sad and lethargic girls and a man who obviously doesn’t like children very much, always chased the children off the stage because the stage is for them (((the music is very specific woodpecker Woody scared the children, the music is different from duck dance to Turkish, for children in principle, I like it, it’s boring, but for children from 8 years old, it’s like that in general... There is a trampoline, please, parents are very careful! ! I'm not responsible!!! Don't let the child out of sight if it's small, in general, many parents stick to the trampoline, from the side they came to the zoo and stuck to the cage with the monkeys. Adult animation is not intrusive,
very interesting in the pool, the guys held far outstanding competitions, it was interesting, water aerobics is carried out in the sea. Since the room overlooks the neighboring hotel, you can hear and see the chic animation (((The amphitheater is still very dirty, they don’t clean it at all, and they also don’t have time to clean the public toilets. Now I’ll say about the attitude towards the Russians just like that because for the Turks there is no difference Ukrainian, Belarusian, we are all Russians for them, and so the hotel is 90 inhabited by Russians and a few Turks, but indeed the Turks are more loyal, but maybe we ourselves are to blame? As a result, the hotel is beautiful, the sunset is beautiful, the food is good, but there is no desire to return, there is no soul at the hotel, everyone is trying in the restaurant, but the animation, neglect of children spoil everything very much. Waiters communicate more with children than animators where are the animators?
Finally, a few tips, if you eat with a small child, take a couple of instant cereals with you, even if he already eats everything, believe me, water is another different unusual taste of food, at first the children refuse, then everything will work out, so cereals, as a fallback option. Secondly, before giving a child, try a lot of spicy foods, especially meat, if you are not sure, don’t give it, believe me, even such a trifle as bloating in a child will spoil the rest decently. 3. If you want to eat more or less calmly, take a tablet with you, a phone with your child’s favorite cartoons, by the way, the deeper you sit in a restaurant, the better the Internet. It is better to have breakfast and lunch in a restaurant where it is nice and cool, you can dine outside. Don't forget sunscreen. And be sure to take a good mood and a sedative with you just in case))) I'm not saying that I'm just delighted or upset,
the hotel is good, family, I recommend it if you don’t need anything other than food and the sea. , and the animation is not important. We got a pleasant stay and expected more.

Dear hotel administrator, if you want to be in the top and not lose your reputation, put things in order with the animators!! ! Especially for children!! ! This is unacceptable for a 5 star hotel!
We just arrived, the flight was difficult, the children all got sick, IN THE HOTEL from the 1-3rd floor, almost all the children are sick, high unrelenting temperature, purulent Angina in children (((I can’t say that the hotel is to blame, because I am well acquainted with medicine I can say that this particular bacterial infection was brought by someone (who can only guess, staff or tourists) this is not a virus, it is necessary to contact specifically in order to get infected, elevators are common children like to press buttons, handrails, etc. everything that is possible touch and put your hands in your mouth and say hello.
And all will be well.
