очень понравилось liked it very much

I'm back from Eldar!! ! And now I can objectively evaluate this hotel.
Arrival and settlement.
We arrived at the hotel at 3 o'clock in the morning, since our flight was delayed for 8 hours ((((therefore, 1 day was 100% gone. Naturally, the mood was not the best, because we were traveling for 7 days anyway. We were in Turkey for the first time , so we expected that there was noise, dancing, entertainment all night long, in a word, developed nightlife was in full swing. Surprisingly, it’s not like at 3 am, but already at midnight (as we later found out) everything dies out. right to the entrance, went into the lobby of the hotel and we were met by very nice young people at the reception, we checked in and carried our suitcases to the room. to our surprise, we were offered to eat, because they were told that our flight was very delayed, and for this day it was paid. For our sake, they even opened a lobby bar, which closes at 12 at night. We refused to eat, but we went to drink. In general, We went to bed at 4 am And the alarm clock was set for 6 am.

Food.
For breakfast we went to the very opening at 7 am. Since we like to go to the beach in the morning and there are not many people yet. So early, few people came down for breakfast, so there was no pandemonium. Once there was scrambled eggs with fried sausages. And there are mostly many types of cheeses and sausages, as well as a bunch of all kinds of buns. So who loves rolls - this is paradise))) Well, we don’t eat them, so we ate mostly boiled eggs, cheese, vegetables, drank juices, tea and coffee.
For lunch, the opening at 12:30 was always much more crowded. So I had to hurry up and get a table. Put something (we put a plate with watermelon) and collect food further. For lunch they gave a lot of goodies, there was always a lot of food, all kinds and varied.
But the most delicious was given for dinner. Oooh, dinner there is royal. We were late for the opening at 19:00 once on the first day. It was something (((It was not possible to find a free table ((we waited until at least something was free. So, wiser by experience, we subsequently went even earlier and waited for the opening at the door, like many others. We are sorry we looked at other people who had just arrived and did not know all the intricacies of eating in Eldar))) One elderly couple could not find a place for half an hour.
By the way, at the reception immediately ask for a leaflet with the opening hours of bars, restaurants, etc. etc. In a hotel. They forgot to give it to us, and we went around asking everyone when dinner, when lunch, and so on. Then only at a meeting with a guide from a travel agency, he told us that they give him at the reception upon arrival.

After breakfast, we went to the room, changed clothes and went to the sea. We thought that the people would be dark in the morning, because everyone here wrote that the beach was small. I myself here asked everyone about the beach))) so we rushed headlong. As it turned out, the beach is not at all small after it was expanded. Not only was it half empty, but also from the neighboring beach they came to us and asked how we like it in Eldar. Because the neighboring beach Queen's Park 5 * was teeming with people, just tin (((we were shocked. There was nowhere for an apple to fall. And small children - darkness ((((just horror. And I'm not exaggerating. money is given for 5 *, but in the end there is only inconvenience. It's like on the city beach in Yalta))) remember the movie "Be my husband"? and there too. At any time there are places on the beach and in sufficient quantities. The sea is clean and very warm.
We really liked it) The only thing that is boring in the evening. Still, this is a family-friendly hotel. All families, with children. We never went to animation programs, we didn’t like it. In the evening we went for a walk to Queen Elizabeth 5 * (by the way, go, the hotel is of incredible beauty, made under an exact copy of the ship of the same name) and back. There is no place to play. Which upset us too. We are accustomed to a slightly different type of recreation: celebration, fun, music, discos, embankment. And there’s nowhere even to put on outfits of which we scored a whole suitcase (((in the end we wore 2 sets of clothes, and one of them was a swimsuit)))) so don’t drag bags full of beautiful outfits and hairpins with you. There is simply nowhere to put it on.
As a result, we liked Turkey and Eldar, but we will not go again. We prefer a slightly different kind of rest. This is a holiday for those who only like to eat, sleep and sunbathe.
