It’s been 1.5 weeks since we returned from this hotel and I decided to write this review. I’ll say right away that the review will most likely be useful for people with children, since they themselves were with a child of 2 years.
Meeting. We met well at the hotel. Our check-in was at 9-10 in the morning, we were greeted with a glass of juice. At the reception, the girl Natasha, speaks good Russian, said that there were no rooms available yet, offered to leave things and go to have breakfast as soon as something was free she will immediately give us the number (we were the only ones who checked in that day), there was no thought of giving dollars to the passport, we were with a child and of course we were given the first vacant room, but by 12 o'clock.
Number. The room is good. I'm not one of those people who like to criticize furniture, etc. I'm going to the sea to relax, not to live in a room. The room is large, spacious. For three people we had 1 double bed, 1 single bed and a folding chair, but we did not use it. Cleaning, change of linen, replenishment of the free bar was daily and without any complaints. from the reception, to the sea about 10 minutes at a slow pace, it was a pleasure to walk.

Food. Upon arrival at the hotel, we were asked to choose the time for dinner, as there are a lot of people and so that there is no crush, you choose dinner either from 18.30 to 20.00, or from 20.30 to 22.00. We chose option 1. If you are late somewhere and do not have time for any meal, you should not worry, near the beach if the main restaurant is closed, there is a beach cafe where 50% of the dishes are served that were in the main restaurant. The food was varied from 5 types of meat and fish, many side dishes, vegetables, sushi (albeit quite primitive). There is oatmeal for breakfast, about 4-5 types of eggs (omelettes, poached eggs, etc. ), yogurts, cheeses, etc. On lunch 2 types of soup, 2-3 types of pasta, a bunch of meats, side dishes (vegetables, mashed potatoes, dumplings, well, a lot of everything). children 5 years old have all sorts of free cards, pizza, nuggets, etc. For younger children, there is also something to feed. For babies, milk, baby puree in the refrigerator. nictarines. There were enough sweets too.
The drinks. Ephesus beer is very tasty, it even seems to me that they didn’t dilute it, as it was thick and I got drunk with one glass. The wine is dry, I did not like it. In the evening they make cocktails for every taste and manner. My husband made friends with the bartenders and at the beginning of the holiday he gave them a good tip, so they poured real Bacardi rum and whiskey for him. If I went for cocktails, the bartenders did not know me and poured Turkish rum and unknown whiskey stamps to me. So draw your own conclusions...
Vacationers. 80 percent of vacationers are Europeans. Elderly couples and couples with children. There were Americans, British, Germans, French, Belgians. The rest are Russians with children. speech, och even liked it.
Animals. Once we saw 2 small turtles, we didn’t come across any more. pat.
The sea and the pool. We went mostly to the sea. The sea is warm. It can be calm in the morning, waves in the evening. There were always free sunbeds on the beach. There was also a playground under a canopy right in the middle of the beach (two small slides and a house). a child plays in the sand with other children under a canopy, you lie in the sun nearby and sunbathe. There is a pool for the little ones and for the older ones with slides.
Animation. Since we slept in the room at lunchtime, I won’t say anything about daytime animation, but it seemed like there was a separate building for children’s animation. Adults had fun at lunch near the main pool, there was animation. I got it. The evening show began with children's dancing for about 1-1.5 hours to different music. Then there was a show for adults. Various dance groups entered, live music, a Chinese circus (I really liked it). Well done.

Shopping. There are several shops in the hotel, but we didn’t buy anything there. We found out that there is a Dee poo outlet about 40 minutes drive from the hotel in Antalya, sort of. All famous brands are sold there with huge discounts. In particular, we were advised LC Waikiki as a quality brand of children's clothing. We got there directly from our hotel for $ 7 for three. We bought a child, me, my husband (clothes for the whole family, really high quality and stylish), left about $ 400 there, took out 6 huge bags, that we had to buy a suitcase there. But we overpaid a little for it. The next day we went to Kadriye, the local bazaar and there are a lot of shops there. You can buy a suitcase there 2 times cheaper. Dipo also has an amusement park, cinema, cafes. From the brands Beneton, Adidas, Calvin Klein and many different ones, I don’t remember everything. Don’t buy souvenirs there, it’s cheaper at the bazaar. bazaar $ 2. In Dipo only for clothes.
In general, there are a lot of impressions, I liked everything very much. If you have any questions, ask, I will definitely answer. I recommend the hotel to couples with children in the first place. You will not regret it!
