We rested in this hotel from the UNICORN tour operator, Smartavia air carrier. The flight was postponed 2 times not in our favor (the flight to Turkey from 04.05 am to 13.40 pm, and back to Russia from 18.40 pm was postponed to 13.10 pm), so we practically lost 2 days of swimming in the sea. But these are claims against the air carrier. Although the flight was normal, the seats are comfortable, the food on board was delicious. The transfer from UNICORN was like everyone else, they took us to the hotel quickly. What I liked was that one family got lost at the airport, so the guide personally ran to look for her. We didn't go anywhere without them. The hotel guide was not intrusive, he offered tours only to those who wished. Check out information was posted on time.

We arrived at the hotel after 20.00, there was still dinner, we were first offered to have dinner and after that they only began to be placed in the rooms.


Room: we got a very good number 516 in the Villa building on the 3rd floor with a gorgeous view from the balcony, but without a refrigerator.
Although I had a rest in 3-star hotels in Spain and Italy, there were no refrigerators in the rooms either. The room is quite spacious, 2 beds (double and single for a child), an old TV, a wardrobe, a mirror, an ottoman, a bedside table and a paid safe. The bathroom has a shower, hair dryer, pleased with the toilet with bidet. Surprised by the presence of only one towel for a person for the body, towels for the face and feet were not provided. Bed linen and towels are not new but clean. There is no elevator in the building, but this only made us happy, as there was an additional burden of burning extra calories. They cleaned the room as it seemed to us every other day (washed the floors, made the bed and threw out the garbage).

The food was modest, but we did not go hungry. All food was fresh, there was no poisoning. But lovers of the buffet are clearly not in this hotel. The variety of food is not great.
Breakfast: eggs or scrambled eggs or scrambled eggs, fried sausages, 2 types of sausage, yogurt, jam, honey and butter, fresh bread, cucumbers, tomatoes, deep-fried eggplant and peppers (not spicy), olives. Lunch: soup and the main course are always in the same form, what is cooked is what you will eat, the chef puts it personally on the plate. If you haven't eaten enough, you can always ask for supplements without any problems (the menu alternates for 3 days). Usually 2 types of garnish, salads fresh cucumbers with tomatoes, 2 mayonnaise salads (I didn’t try them because I don’t eat mayonnaise), olives and deep-fried eggplants and peppers, watermelons. Dinner is the same as lunch, but the second course is always tastier and 2 types of side dish, every other day for dinner they gave very tasty baklava. Before that, I thought that I didn’t like her, but I tried her in this hotel.

We only drank wine from alcohol, they always have dry bottled wine, each time different, there is no beer, about alcohol, I saw that they poured crayfish, made cocktails, but I can’t say anything about them, because I’m not a fan of alcohol and have not tried . The hotel has very tasty coffee from the coffee machine. I mostly drank it. We bought beer in supermarkets, which are located next to the mosque. There are also shops with clothes from local firms.

The hotel does not have its own beach. We went to the city beach and lay on our mattress for free. It is next to the port and pier from the TURKIZ imperial hotel. The beach is pebbly, clean, well-groomed, at lunchtime on Sunday there is a foamy disco, which pleases that it is free. I recommend taking slippers for the sea, because walking on the pebbles is not very pleasant, but the water is clear as a tear…

Staff: very nice and friendly, always smiling, always trying to help.
Swimming pools: located on the territory of the Villa, 2 deep, 2 shallow. Always cold water. The pools are cleaned every evening.

Animation Entertainment: animation stated in the description of the hotel was not, but strangely enough in the evenings every other day it was, though in a miniature form, but nevertheless it pleasantly surprised us.

Conclusion: we had a great time. The hotel is worth the money. It cost us only 5.000 rubles. for two, which is much cheaper than other hotels. We bought beer, ayran and fruits ourselves in supermarkets (we spent about 50 dollars on them), we brought vacuum-packed smoked sausage with us.
