The location is so-so, there is no transfer to the beach and the beach is very far, there is also 1 small beach for free, all the rest are paid, this is the only thing that I did not like about this hotel.

Beautiful landscape, hotel surrounded by coniferous forest. Good food, clean rooms, friendly staff. But not Russian-speaking and resting Russian-speaking units. Excellent spa with Thai massage. But the nuance with the sea. It is far away, the hotel does not have its own beach. Transfer to a private beach in the morning there, and in the evening back with the obligation to rent a sunbed from 15 euros.

You can get to Aludeniz for 4.5 lira on a public minibus (to the stop 5-7 minutes on foot) + entrance to the reserve 7 lira per person. for a day. You can rent a car for a day for the price of 1 taxi ride and visit different beaches (20-25 lira per day per car).

We purposefully searched for a hotel in Oludeniz with a large territory, in a quiet place. We found it on Booking, looked at photos, reviews and made our choice. We checked in at 3am and got checked out in 5 minutes. All information about the hotel is true, the photos on Booking correspond to reality. Very beautiful landscaped area.

We purposefully searched for a hotel in Oludeniz with a large territory, in a quiet place. We found it on Booking, looked at photos, reviews and made our choice. We checked in at 3am and got checked out in 5 minutes.
All information about the hotel is true, the photos on Booking correspond to reality. Very beautiful landscaped area. I liked the multi-level modular layout of the hotel buildings, which helps to avoid crowding of vacationers, there is no feeling of a "crowd", everyone will find a cozy place for themselves at the bar, on the site for the show program, and in the restaurant, and by the pool. A lot of space, picturesque, pleasing to the eye, a beautiful view of the bay and the sea, mountains.
The room (there were small nuances with the settlement) is small, for two people there is enough space and space, the "standard" room, in pleasant beige and coffee tones. Furniture, all equipment, in excellent condition. Everything is working properly. The balcony is small, with a beautiful view of the restaurant veranda, pool, mountains and the sea. I can't name any cons, I liked everything. True, there is no place for drying towels, swimsuits. Vacationers use for this purpose a balcony fence, a plastic table and chairs that are located there. We had a rope with us, built an impromptu dryer, no problem. ))))
Food - varied, for every taste, everything is fresh, tasty.
For breakfast (from 7.30 to 10.00 - boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, fried sausages, sausages with stewed vegetables; fried mushrooms with onions; oat milk porridge; flat cakes; fresh vegetables; salad; greens (4-5 types); cheese , cheese; sausages; jams (6-7 types); sweets; yogurt; milk and muesli (4-5 types); buns; pies; dried apricots; raisins; figs; Turkish delight; fruits (plums, pears, peaches, apples, grapes, watermelons, melons), olives
Drinks: ayran, coffee (automatic machine - 6 programs); tea (brewed and
sachets); water with syrup (4 types).
Lunch (from 13.00 to 14.30) - cream soups (1-2 types); rice, spaghetti, pasta; fried potatoes; mashed potatoes; French fries; beef stew with vegetables; curry chicken; baked chicken thighs; vegetable stew; fresh vegetables separately and in salads; vegetable salads (7-8 types); cold meat and vegetable snacks; sweets; buns; casseroles; fresh fruits, olives
Dinner: (from 19.00 to 21.00) - local cakes with cottage cheese are cooked in the oven in your presence; fish baked or fried right in front of you; stewed meat with vegetables; grill oven - meat is also baked in front of you; wings; grilled vegetables; side dishes - various; cold meat appetizers (sliced); squids; mussels; salads; vegetables; greenery; sweets 8-10 types; fruit; vegetables. Olives.
Often took fruits, dried fruits with them to the room; no problem; for dishes throughout the territory there are special coasters where you can leave a glass or a plate.
I would especially like to note the staff - very positive, smiling, attentive, it is very pleasant to feel such an attitude towards yourself.
Enjoyed the hotel and stay very much. I can’t say that I didn’t like something, rather the nuances:
1. We were settled in a room by a night porter, the room turned out to be without a separate balcony, a small gallery shared with neighboring rooms. with a view... on the roof of the restaurant, hoods; small window. In the morning we turned to the day porter - his name is Ziya (she speaks Russian, a very attentive and positive person, patiently answered all our questions. Many thanks to him!! ! ). The room was changed to us (without any additional payments) within a day. By the way, in the description of the hotel it is indicated that all rooms overlook the pool... no, there are rooms with a view of the forest, of varying degrees of picturesqueness of the view, overlooking the mountains, utility yard (although everything is decorated there, clean and tidy ). Everywhere flowers, tropical plants.
2. All staff speaks Turkish, English. Most vacationers are British, many Turks. There are not many Russian-speaking tourists.
3. Internet is available both in the room and by the pool, but it is best to catch it at the reception (checked), there is a large comfortable lounge with armchairs and sofas.
4. The hotel is not located on the coast, but in the mountains, in a pine forest. You have to go to the beach. We traveled by bus. (4.25 lira fare, dollar exchange rate 1:6.1). Initially, they planned to walk - not really, far away, part of the road - along the highway. Ride - 6-7 minutes.
5. The hotel has its own beach, it is located on the shore of the lagoon from the side of the mountains. We didn't go there. There is a transfer - not convenient: two flights down at 9.45 and 10.45. Back to the hotel - 16.00 and 17.00.
It is good to relax in the lagoon with small children, there is shallow, very warm water. But there are just a lot of people there )))
We went to the city beach - "Beljengiz", went to the neighboring bay, the beach "Kedrak"... but, this is not about the hotel))))
6. There are animators in the hotel, to be honest, we had a great time, we did not participate in their activities.
7. Every evening - thematic entertaining concert program. On the day of Turkey: Turkish dishes were offered, even the tablecloths were in the range of the Turkish flag; concert - national Turkish dances.
8. Snack bar... for an amateur - rolls with a cutlet, french fries... Once they took a pizza (quite tasty). There was enough food in the restaurant, there was simply no need.
9. Ice cream - the most common, 6 varieties to choose from in a waffle cone. Tasty.
10 . A very colorful grandmother baked Turkish cakes with cottage cheese - gozleme: delicious.
Thanks to the hotel staff for the excellent organization of the holiday!! ! We will always remember you with warmth in our hearts! )))

The hotel staff is English-speaking, but there is Ziya, who speaks excellent Russian. Their English is clear and slow. If you listen, you can understand everything.
The room was on the 3rd floor, on the right a view of the mountain, on the left to the mini water park, the sun practically did not enter the room. The room has everything you need: comfortable beds, air conditioning, TV, slippers, etc. , water, refrigerator, functional furniture. . . what else do you need on vacation?!
The food is varied: breakfast: yogurt and everything for it, fruits, vegetables, eggs, scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs, cheeses, soy sausages and sausages, sweets. Lunch: all kinds of side dishes, several types of meat, mashed soups. Dinner: a lot of grilled dishes, shawarma, side dishes, meat, fish and even red fish sandwiches, fruits.
Bar: free of charge: beer, wine, crayfish, gin and tonic, cola, tea, coffee, water, various cocktails. For a fee: imported alcohol.
I didn't see any hungry people. Also at the pool bar: pizza, hamburgers, hot dogs, french fries.
Free wi-fi, at the reception I caught it best, you won’t be left without a connection.
Beach: there are many beaches, we didn’t go to the free one from the hotel, as I read the reviews before that and decided not to waste time in vain. Were on Oludeniz beach, this is a city beach, free, only sun loungers and umbrellas are paid. The cost of 2 sun loungers and an umbrella is 45 lira (1 dollar = 4.25 lira approximately). For those who want to lie down on the sand-pebbles, everything is free. We were also on the Kidrak beach, the entrance is paid, 7 liras per person, I didn’t recognize the cost of sun loungers and an umbrella, there was no need, we just came to swim and admire the unrealistically clear water.
We got everywhere by minibuses, there is a stop not far from the hotel, you just need to go down to the shops. Minibuses run to Oludeniz every 5 minutes (cost 4.25 lira). Do not be afraid to get into the wrong minibus, minibus drivers immediately ask for directions, minibuses are comfortable, with air conditioning, the ride takes 7-8 minutes. Visited also Kayakoy place. The locals call it "Ghost City". This is an open air museum.
Well, now about the main thing! Of course it's paragliding! Do not spare money, these emotions cannot be expressed in words, you just have to try, the sensations are indescribable and by the way it’s not scary at all, I want to repeat the feeling of free fall !!!! ! Fethiye does not exist without paragliding. I advise you to take excursions and paragliding not from tour operators, but just take a walk along the Oludeniz embankment, there are many agencies. Paragliding cost $80 + $35 photo.
Have a good holiday everyone!!!! !

The food in the restaurant is like in the Soviet canteen, the chefs are trying, but still, very cheap products.
the waiters are dirty, but friendly... Room cleaning, no complaints, they clean well.
The room is in need of refurbishment, the walls are peeling, the plaster is crumbling. lived in the middle building.
Animation is just a nightmare, stupid contests, jump on the ball, and the best dance....
The bartenders at the bar are not attentive, they spill drinks when serving...
They gave me a meal plan that didn't match the reality. The timetable and the information plate indicate one time, but in fact it is transferred by half an hour or an hour
I don’t understand one thing, there is a sign at the reception booking review 8.7... Where did they get it from ???
This is the worst vacation I have ever seen.

We chose the hotel in the area of Oludeniz and the Blue Lagoon. Hotel Nicholas Park near the village of Hisaronu. I love small compact hotels, with well-groomed territory, a lot of greenery and not a lot of people in the hotel. The location of the hotel is amazing: around the mountains, below the sea, on the territory of pines and cedars.

We chose the hotel in the area of Oludeniz and the Blue Lagoon. Hotel Nicholas Park near the village of Hisaronu. I love small compact hotels, with well-groomed territory, a lot of greenery and not a lot of people in the hotel. The location of the hotel is amazing: around the mountains, below the sea, on the territory of pines and cedars. The air is amazing, cool in the heat (the temperature in the hotel is 5-7 degrees lower than down on the beach in Oludeniz). The views from the observation deck of the hotel, from the pool area and the dining room are mesmerizing. The feeling that you live in a botanical garden. Everything in the photo is even more beautiful in reality.
Number: We were very lucky with the room, we lived in a standard with a patio and a view of the bay (rooms 604-609), two adults and a child of 12 years old (1 bed was delivered). The room is not big, but cozy, clean, bright, always in the shade. Comfortable beds, white furniture good repair. The only thing is a small shower, for overweight people, probably not very convenient. Of course, this number is not guaranteed. We wanted a triple room (the hotel has them), but our tour operators provide only standard rooms and at a price slightly cheaper than on the hotel's website. There are very few of us Russian speakers. Europeans and Turks mainly rest in the hotel, and rooms are booked on the hotel website or on other sites such as booking... , and there the prices are different.
Every day, high-quality room cleaning and very pleasant staff, always greet, smile.
Meals: The kitchen at the hotel exceeded all expectations (this was noted in all reviews), many thanks to the chefs. Everything is freshly prepared, a huge selection of dishes. Beef, chicken, liver, tongues, fish - fried, grilled, with various sauces. Each dinner is a dish from the chef, never repeated in 12 days. All kinds of vegetables (eggplants, zucchini, tomatoes, ... ) fried, baked, stuffed, vegetable stew. Fruits, raw vegetables and baked goods are always fresh. In the morning there is always cedar honey and jam cooked (not factory-made) from cherries, apricots, raspberries, strawberries...
There are always free tables, dirty dishes are removed very quickly, tablecloths are changed if they are dirty, and they are served with new appliances.
Beach. There is a beach from the hotel, where they are taken for free, two flights in the morning and two flights back after 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Sunbeds and umbrellas on the beach are paid. We didn't like it, we went there once. We were twice in the Blue Lagoon, we liked it, it was very beautiful, we rode a catamaran, but after 12 there were a lot of people. Most of all I liked the city beach, it is huge, there are not many people, the sea is of amazing color and very clean. The cost of a sunbed and an umbrella is 15 lira. You can use your own umbrella and bedding (zones cost 30 lire), because. the beach is municipal and a lot of space is very convenient. Many vacationers do this. Many write about special shoes, but we didn’t need them, we reached the water in flip flops (for me, moving along the Yalta beach has always been a big problem), we saw that some people walk in special shoes, in which they swim.
It took 15-20 minutes to get to the beach, 5-7 minutes to the minibus and 10-12 minutes on the minibus to the beach. They go very often (we hardly ever waited more than 5 minutes) and costs 3.75 lira per person. But these costs can be reduced by buying a ticket for the number of trips that are needed. At some stops there is a manager who sells these tickets, then at the entrance to the minibus you need to attach it to the display.
The afternoon was spent mostly at the hotel. The pools are not very large, but it is always clean around, clean water, a slide works, there are always free sunbeds, including in the shade under the pines.
For those who need a beach in the hotel itself, this option is not suitable. You need to connect to Wi-fi periodically, in some places on the territory there is no coverage. For us, these moments were not fundamental and therefore we were very pleased with the rest.

ROOM Placed us immediately upon arrival. The staff is very attentive: the employee helped carry the suitcase to the room. We were placed on the 2nd floor with one double bed, there is also a single bed in the room. The room was overlooking the pool. In the room: safe, TV, mini fridge. Number as a number, no complaints.
CLEANING. The room was cleaned every day. If you really find fault, I can say that the floors were constantly sticky, shampoos were given out on demand. We brought shampoos, conditioners and soap with us. We didn’t get hung up on cleaning, because. only came to the room to sleep.
LANGUAGE. In the hotel, the animator who leads the evening show and an auxiliary worker speaks a little in Russian. We did not meet more Russian-speaking staff at the hotel. The shops also speak English. You can often find prices for goods in pounds. You can also pay in lira or dollars. This area is very popular with the British and the Turks love them. As one Turk told me, they have money). If you do not speak English, I advise you to download the translator application to your phone.
FOOD. The food was delicious, BUT a lot of spicy dishes. Finding food for the child was a problem: pepper is not spared and is added to almost all dishes. I love spicy dishes, but even for me, the food seemed very spicy: meat, chicken, soups (I didn’t like any), potatoes and even pasta burn everything... I put literally a little food on the plate to taste whether the dish was spicy , it happened that there were not sharp ones))). For breakfast for children, you can choose 3 types of cereal with milk, pancakes, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs. Very tasty sweets, there were practically no fruits in early June: oranges, sour watermelon, apples and sometimes green melon. Free ice cream for children and adults from 14.30. In the dining area there is a refrigerator with water and ayran, bottles of water can be taken to the room or on an excursion, which is very convenient, because. on excursions, ordinary water is sold for $ 1 per bottle. So take with you to the beach, excursions, a few bottles of water in your room.
BEACH hotel is something))). Pond overgrown with reeds. The minibus from the hotel to the beach runs at 9.45 and 10.45, it goes back only in the evening, i. e. You won't have time for lunch if you're waiting for the bus. I advise you to relax on the city beach. The city beach is very beautiful, the water is clear. Stock up on suitable shoes, because. in shoes with thin soles and barefoot, it hurts to walk on pebbles.
I would advise tourists who stay at the hotel for the first time, to get acquainted with the area, take a free bus to the hotel's beach. While you are eating, you will see and remember where the bus turns, drive past the city beach. The bus does not stop anywhere, even upon request, the driver has clear instructions to take people to the hotel beach. When leaving the bus, go back (there is only one road, don't get lost) and after 5-10 minutes you will reach the city beach. There are many shops along the beach, where you can also book excursions. You can return to the hotel by minibus (dolmush). Dolmushi are white fixed-route taxis. You need to take a minibus to Hesaron, or just say the name of the hotel. The price of the minibus for June 2017 is 3.75 lira per person. Leaving the minibus, you will need to turn left and you will have to walk uphill to the hotel for about 10 minutes.
HOW TO GET TO THE BEACH BY YOURSELF. Leaving the hotel, go down the hill, after a minute or two, with the usual step, you will see the adjoining road on the right and the water slides of the hotel below (I don’t remember what it’s called), continue walking along your road without turning anywhere, soon go to another road (landmark - in the middle there is a tree on the road, there is a red road sign on it with the inscription DUR, on the right - a garbage dump), turn right (pass the garbage dump) and then go straight, the road will be straight for some time, and then there will be a descent down (landmark iron red and white posts in the middle of the road ), go down and see a lot of shops and another road, it will be perpendicular to the road you were walking on. Immediately on the right is a minibus stop (remember where you got on the minibus, so that when returning back, stop the driver in the same place). Entering the minibus, immediately pass the fare (3.75 lira per person). On the way back you also take a minibus to Khesoronu. Minibuses run frequently, every 10-15 minutes.
WHERE TO EXCHANGE LIRA
The hotel usually does not have a favorable exchange rate, do not listen to the guide, and do not change money at the hotel. On the street, the course is more profitable. You can compare yourself. The nearest exchange office is opposite the minibus stop that goes to the beach (I described above how to get to the stop).
EXCURSIONS
If you have money and do not want to bother, then you can take excursions from a hotel guide.
On the street (next to the nearest exchanger, see above), we took an excursion to the Ovacik Water World water park. For a child, ask for a discount, and for an adult, you can also ask to drop the price. For two, we paid 80 lire (50 lire for an adult + 30 lire for a child). At the indicated hour, a taxi pulled up for us and after 10-15 minutes. we were at the water park. At the entrance to the water park, we saw a sign 60 lira for an adult, 40 lira for a child of 6-12 years old and were pleasantly surprised, it turned out that we paid 80 lira instead of 100. A taxi also arrived at the indicated hour. Now about the water park itself. The water park is small, only 8 slides, not counting the children's area, there is a small pool with waves. The water park has its own website, do not be too lazy to go to the site to see photos in order to have an idea about it in advance. Despite the fact that the water park a small child liked it there.
We also took a trip to Dalyan. On the excursion we caught blue crab, saw Caretta-Caretta turtles, visited the Ituzu (sand) beach. We were transported along the river in boats. At the end of the tour, we were brought to the mud, it was possible to smear ourselves with 4 types of clay. In general, I liked the tour, but it takes a whole day, which is tiring for children and this tour is definitely not worth the money that hotel guides ask for it. Once again I will repeat and write that it is better to take excursions not in a hotel, but in agencies on the street, where they are much cheaper.
Paragliding is developed in Oludeniz, you can fly in tandem with an instructor. A minibus goes to the mountain from which jumps are made, a magnificent view opens from the mountain.
ANIMATION
With small children, I would not recommend this hotel. Children will be bored: there is no animation. There is also no children's menu.
ROOM Placed us immediately upon arrival. The staff is very attentive: the employee helped carry the suitcase to the room. We were placed on the 2nd floor with one double bed, there is also a single bed in the room. The room was overlooking the pool. In the room: safe, TV, mini fridge. Number as a number, no complaints.
CLEANING. The room was cleaned every day. If you really find fault, I can say that the floors were constantly sticky, shampoos were given out on demand. We brought shampoos, conditioners and soap with us. We didn’t get hung up on cleaning, because. only came to the room to sleep.
LANGUAGE. In the hotel, the animator who leads the evening show and an auxiliary worker speaks a little in Russian. We did not meet more Russian-speaking staff at the hotel. The shops also speak English. You can often find prices for goods in pounds. You can also pay in lira or dollars. This area is very popular with the British and the Turks love them. As one Turk told me, they have money). If you do not speak English, I advise you to download the translator application to your phone.
FOOD. The food was delicious, BUT a lot of spicy dishes. Finding food for the child was a problem: pepper is not spared and is added to almost all dishes. I love spicy dishes, but even for me, the food seemed very spicy: meat, chicken, soups (I didn’t like any), potatoes and even pasta burn everything... I put literally a little food on the plate to taste whether the dish was spicy , it happened that there were not sharp ones))). For breakfast for children, you can choose 3 types of cereal with milk, pancakes, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs. Very tasty sweets, there were practically no fruits in early June: oranges, sour watermelon, apples and sometimes green melon. Free ice cream for children and adults from 14.30.

Although we have been to Turkey many times, we decided not to refuse the opportunity to visit the Blue Lagoon, and the hotel offer was good, so on September 26 we flew from Boryspil to Dalaman with a clear plan of where to go and what to see. Departure in the morning, from the airport to the hotel about an hour's drive, so around 9 am we were already at the hotel.

Although we have been to Turkey many times, we decided not to refuse the opportunity to visit the Blue Lagoon, and the hotel offer was good, so on September 26 we flew from Boryspil to Dalaman with a clear plan of where to go and what to see. Departure in the morning, from the airport to the hotel about an hour's drive, so around 9 am we were already at the hotel. The hotel itself is in Greek style, located on a mountain, in a coniferous forest, quite green, 3.5 km from the beach. The check-in happened earlier and at about 12 o'clock we received the keys to the room. The room is tired, clearly in need of cosmetic repairs, the food is good, quite tasty dishes, especially those cooked on the grill, juices and coffee, of course, leave much to be desired, in principle, there is no service, the staff is friendly. The contingent is mostly 70% of the British, everything is oriented for them, even the prices are in pounds, in the evenings there are standard animation programs. Well, there’s nothing more to write about the hotel, I’d better share my impressions of where they were and what they saw. So, for comfortable movement in the local rental car "Optimus" a wonderful Citroen C4 was booked in advance, which the representative of the company drove right to the entrance to the hotel. The first stop was a visit to the village of Kayakoy, which is more like a museum, consisting of hundreds of ruins with two Greek churches, and really looks like a ghost. Next - Fethiye, a cozy town, with a beautiful promenade, but a terribly dirty city beach (by the way, on this coast all the beaches are municipal, a set of umbrella + 2 sun loungers - 21 lira). Further, located 50 km east of Fethiye, the incomparable "Turkish" St. Tropez - Kalkan with its narrow streets and overhanging balconies twined with bougainvilleas (oh, that's something! ), Cute cafes and the cleanest city beach. Also, 6 km from Kalkan is one of the most picturesque beaches of the Lycian coast, and maybe the whole of Turkey, Kaputas, with soft golden sand (it somehow reminded me of Devil's Harbor in Crete). Continuing along the national highway D400, along the rocks, we get to Kas, also very colorful and not at all "Turkish", I would say more "Italian", a town with wonderful beaches-platforms. By the way, you can see the Greek island of Kastellorizo from Kas! A 20-minute drive east of Kalkan is Patara, where St. Nicholas the Wonderworker was born, also in Patara there is a beautiful temple of Apollo, where archaeological excavations are still being carried out (reminiscent of Ephesus) and, of course, the beach is sandy, stretching for many kilometers, in general landscape, as in the Egyptian desert. We also drove to the Saklikent gorge, looked at the waterfall and drove on. Well, in order to diversify the program a little, we took an excursion to 6 islands with a visit to the “valley of butterflies, the “aquarium” bay, where the water is of an unusual azure color and several more islands of the Aegean Sea. On the penultimate day we went to the Blue Lagoon and I agree with the opinion of those tourists who considers that Oludeniz looks more convincing from a paragliding height. Summarizing, I would like to note once again that Turkey is a wonderful, comfortable country where it is pleasant to relax in all respects!

Hello. The three of us (mother, me and son) rested from June 5 to June 12.2012. Wonderful hotel. In general, I (we) really liked the hotel and the rest in itself, there are more pluses - there are many of them than minuses - only 2 in my opinion. I'll start with the positives. The holiday was SUCCESSFUL, we will remember this trip for the rest of our lives.

Hello. The three of us (mother, me and son) rested from June 5 to June 12.2012. Wonderful hotel. In general, I (we) really liked the hotel and the rest in itself, there are more pluses - there are many of them than minuses - only 2 in my opinion. I'll start with the positives. The holiday was SUCCESSFUL, we will remember this trip for the rest of our lives. Firstly, amazing views: the hotel is among the mountains, they can be seen from anywhere in the hotel, even from our balcony, the cleanest air. Buildings-corps - white, like small cottages, they all stand next to each other, it turned out cozy. Our room is large, with a beautiful view right on the mountains, next to which the sun rises in the morning. Very romantic!!!... The dining room-restaurant is wonderful, the food is all delicious, although there were few types of hot dishes, desserts, etc. , compared to other large hotels, but this is very much enough, most importantly - edible, tasty, enough for everyone. There are always a lot of places in the restaurant, no need to run around to take a table. And the staff is very friendly, helpful, they go to look at the tables and immediately remove the extra dirty plates. After each meal, a clean tablecloth is laid, even if it is not dirty. . They try to communicate with guests, they always greet with a smile, in a word, if they hear Turkish in response (we could speak a little), they were happy and flattered. Turks are great patriots. The pools are cool, there are never crowds of people, a lot of free sunbeds. The hotel is mostly English, a little bit Germans, Turks, and very few Russians. So the language is needed - English or Turkish. The territory is small, green, well-groomed, even a turtle lives there. A bus takes you to the beach. A day later we went there, swam, rode a catamaran. We went to Fethiye on our own, looked at the city, the port, the tombs - a real Turkish town, shopped. In one local shop, a very hospitable owner did not let us go until he treated us to Turkish coffee and apple tea. Ufuk, respect to you big!! ! His store and others are in a colorful Turkish style, which is not there. We went on an excursion - a jeep safari - cool, fun, one excursion combined a lot of things - Tlos, Saklikent, Patara beach, we saw many cozy and not very Turkish villages. In general, the beauty. We went to the hammam, it was expensive at the hotel, we came across a bathhouse in Hisaron, in which we were washed 2 times cheaper. By the way, Hisaronu is a 10-minute walk from the hotel, where nightlife is in full swing, with parties. There are many shops, our main purchases were there. I want to say a few words about the British, they were the most everywhere. They aroused great respect, very well-mannered people, not arrogant, like most of our people, who have at least some money, absolutely no complexes, simple and friendly people for the most part. In short, SUPER REST! And now about the cons, I hope they are the only ones and only with us. We bought a tour in Coral as 3 *, although it turned out to be a real 4 *. One of the first minuses (by the way, has nothing to do with the hotel) is the host Odeon Tour, which proved to be an ordinary sham: to meet us at the airport, we were met and that was it. Although we organized the whole holiday perfectly for ourselves, the guide did not deign to appear at the hotel even once, at the reception they don’t even know their representatives by sight. We needed to clarify the return flight and transfer, thanks to the receptionists - they helped to find out by phone. Well, the second minus - minus the hotel - is the settlement. We were held back for a long time, in the evening, after clarifications and disputes (even $ 15 did not work), they finally settled us, because we began to almost swear. The room is large, but damp (1st floor), with a beautiful view of the mountains and close to the center of the hotel. That's all the minuses on which we did not become obsessed and spoil our vacation. And everything else is SUPER, we left with tears in our eyes from there. I am not a supporter of monotony, but at the next opportunity I would go to rest again in Fethiye, and in this hotel. I hope my review will be useful to someone. Have a nice holiday
