We took a burning tour. Mid June 2021. It turned out cheaper than in Zatoka. Well, the sea and the beach you know where is better. I ADVISE!!!
The hotel is not brand new. Both inside and outside. You can't take good pictures here. Except by the sea or by the pool.
The main thing is convenient. Plumbing is ok. The rooms are being cleaned. Towels are changed. Hair dryer doesn't work.
Everything you need is nearby. You don't have to go far. Sea, swimming pool, dining room, reception.
Nutrition. Will do.
Breakfast is poor. Lots of cheese. One kind of soy meat. Dates and other dried apricots. Tomatoes cucumbers. No warm milk for cereal. Only cold.
Lunch is ok. Everything you need is there.
Dinner. Norm food. The lines for dinner are the longest. It's best to arrive an hour late. Because at the very beginning they will give you one piece of meat,

that would be enough for everyone. And if you come half an hour before closing, then there is a mountain of meat left. Take as much as you want. And what delicious they make pancakes with cheese for dinner... And french fries !!!
Local salads look like Olivier or some expensive salads from our supermarket. It tastes like you have covid and you don't know what you're eating. . . Grass.
More or less norms are cucumbers, tomatoes. Watermelon for dessert! Yummy. Apples, oranges. I do not recommend local draft juices-yuppies. Children may have allergies.
Alcohol. Didn't expect it to be this good. This is not moonshine, as in Egypt. Tequila and whiskey fire! Beer pours like a river and not 100 grams, but half a liter.
Additives? Not a problem! Cocktails. Everything is delicious. But I didn't see any drunk people.
Maybe at night they were, but this is already without us...
Staff. Doesn't know English well. Only some. Russian knows 1 Uzbek. I advise you to learn the words in Turkish: plate, fork, spoon, knife. Table. Cup. Napkin. Thanks Please.
Numbers 1.2, 3. It will be easier in life.
Well done staff!
Mesud at the reception knows English well. Well done.
Sea. It was chilly. A little warmer than our Black Sea. But before Egypt it is heaven and earth. Maybe it was not yet the season, or maybe some kind of cyclone passed recently.
The wind was sometimes, and cool. And the temperature is +30... Not stuffy and not soaring. Such a climate there.
Sunbeds and umbrellas are free. There were rugs but no beach towels.
There are evening discos. Some kind of light and not long... We did not go to them. They didn't bother us.
Lots of Ukrainians and Poles. Few Turks. Maybe someone from Europe was - I do not know. Nobody bothered anyone. THEY ARE NOT THERE - that's the main thing : )
Were with children and without children. And lonely people of different ages, but who found entertainment here : )
Excursions. It's separate. They have nothing to do with the hotel. Pamukkale. $35 for 1 adult. Child free.
Departure at 5-45 am. Drive 6 hours one way (they lie that 3.5 hours), including all stops and 6 hours ago. Breakfast is not included, you need to take it with you. Stop after 2 hours of the road at a roadside cafe,

where coffee is $2. Buns for 1-2 dollars. All local excursions in any direction stop there. Joint business. LIFE HACK. 70 meters from the cafe there is
refueling. There's coffee for $1. Buns are also 2 times cheaper. Water for 10 UAH. for a bottle. Chocolates, cookies.
On the way, check in at some factory for the production of jewelry and cups from some kind of stone. Tip - don't even go there. Come in, don't buy.
Pamukkale itself is only 2.5 hours. During this time, you need to swim in thermal springs (included in the price). In the Cleopatra pool (+$12 per person).
Cleopatra is worth it! Visit the amphitheater. If you take Cleopatra, you are given a storage cabinet with a key. Changing rooms are free for everyone.
Lunch is included in the price. Hours at 15-00. The food is so good that we had enough for dinner. Next, visit a textile factory. Advice - don't go there.
And if you go, don't take anything. The cost of everything is overestimated by 1.5-2 times. We arrived at the hotel at 21:30. We didn't have time for dinner, but we weren't hungry.
Excursion Dalyan. $35 per adult. To go somewhere 4 hours one way and 4 hours back with all stops. Departure at 6-15 am. Breakfast in the same cafe. Check in
wine stop. Wine
$20-$22 a bottle. Let everyone try. Try, but don't take anything. Next is dirt. Not bad. Next, a trip along the river and lunch there. Lunch included, but redneck.
They feed so that they are slightly hungry. Pomegranate juice is constantly imposed. It's not bad, but it doesn't last long.
On the way to the tomb. Reminds me of Lord of the Rings. Something that reminded me.
LIFE HACK. Upon arrival, you are promised a crab for $10.
To feed the turtles with scraps. They don't eat anything but crabs. At the crab meat the cat cried. Buys almost the entire bus, this is from everyone + $ 150 - $ 200
for those pathetic crabs. Then another juice for $2. In general, they are not bad. Although the turtle emerges, it is certainly beautiful. Well, swimming 1 hour in the Mediterranean Sea.
We got to the hotel at 20-40. Made it to dinner.

Excursion. Yacht rides with swimming. Drive 20 minutes by bus to the yacht. They ask $ 20 per person, but we bargained for $ 17, the child is free. Oh how is it
impose this beer for 100 UAH, this cola.
LIFE HACK. Each time, briefly, confidently and clearly say NO! No explanation. Don't say you'll be later. Do not be shy, otherwise they will insist. This is part of the tour
Unfortunately. By the way, they speak only Turkish and English (1 person). Well, think about what they will tell you about local beauties there. Look to the right, look
left. Although they pointed a finger at some shore and said. This is Greece.
Lunch included, but redneck.
Bring snacks and water with you. I don't know about beer. One of the stops will be with camel rides. Like 4$. Optional.
Swimming with your own masks. There are few fish there. There are no corals. So, swimming at a depth of 6-15 meters is nice.
Free guided tour. You will be delivered in Bodrum to THEIR store, where prices are 1.5-2 times higher than the market ones. You can go, but buy some useful little things there.
Better yet, do not buy anything and go about your business around the city. To the market in the center, on the embankment. Prices for shrimp there are 250 Lira per kilo. They'll cook it for free. But such
there are very few places. I found one where me and the seller understood each other. In other places, their English level is slightly worse than: My name is Mustafa.
Travel by bus from the center of Bodrum to the hotel or to the local promenade like 6 Lir. Do not give more, otherwise they will tell you 9 Lira and more. Cash no problem.
Taxi 5 $ to the center of Bodrum. But they are fooling... You can also pay 7. Agree clearly!
Buy Turkish delight at the bazaar in the center. 120 Lira per kilo. Good. But buy 1-2 days before departure. It must be eaten in the first 5 days!! ! Soft and gentle.
