Initially, they wanted to fly to Larissa Sultans Beach Hotel 4 * in early June and already paid 25% in February, but the coronavirus made its own adjustments. We thought that this year it would not be possible to relax at all, but by the middle of summer, good options for recreation began to appear. But since our funds were frozen with the TUI operator, we could only take a tour from him and only 2 weeks before departure. This hotel was advised to us even when we initially chose Larissa, but now we remembered it and decided to take a chance. The tour cost us 956 euros for three (child 14 years old), Larissa cost 202.975 euros in February. The price seems to be the same, but in fact, due to the course, they paid 5000 UAH more. But this is an introduction. Now about the hotel; )
We arrived at the hotel around 17:00. Settled immediately on the 3rd floor room 209 overlooking the mountains and a huge parking lot. When asked about food, they said wait for dinner from 19.30. The hint that today is my birthday did not make any impression on the staff.
I had to have a bite to eat at McDonald's, since it's across the road and went to the beach.


Now the cons begin.

The hotel does not have its own beach this year! It is necessary either to the city or to Moonlight Park there are several different beaches (Dakapo, Sultan and others). The difference between them is in price and coverage: there are large pebbles in the city, my wife was not comfortable, but the price was 10 lire or $ 2 per sunbed. It is located to the left of the hotel and, accordingly, to the left of the G-MARINA KEMER port, from where all yachts and sea excursions depart and which is 1 minute walk from the hotel! To the left of the port near Moonlight Park, there are several beaches and, accordingly, a cafe where live music plays right on the shore in the evening, and, accordingly, beaches with a sandy sunset, but the price in Dakapo is 30 lira for a sunbed or $ 5, in Sultan they took for 20 lira. The course was at the beginning of our trip 6.65 for $1, the last 2 days it was already 7 lira for $1.
My advice is to immediately change a certain amount of dollars for lira, since it is cheaper to pay in lira in shops, on the beach, in the market and in transport!

The second big minus is the food at the hotel! THERE IS NO BUFFET AT ALL! It was probably before, but now, since there are few people, all the dishes are simply brought by the servants and you simply can’t choose anything, that’s what it is! And another interesting point - there were about 20 people in the hotel: 3 girls from Belarus, a family of 2 people. from Western Ukraine, the three of us, and on the second day an elderly couple from Ukraine also arrived, the rest of the Turks, well, it turns out 50 to 50. For breakfast, it’s always a few sealed jams and olives and 2 slices of salty and plain cheese and a waffle basket of honey (tablespoon). It's every day. On all other days, meat was given only 3 times and in the last days 2 chicken legs and fish 3 times like mackerel or something like that! That is, 3 times is generally, i. e.

Day 1 for lunch, second day for dinner, mostly for dinner. That is, the children have nothing to do there at all, my wife and I were not hungry, but we would like fish or poultry at least once a day: (From fruits there was only watermelon and unripe plums, that is, we believe that they were not at all! )

And one more thing: one Turk is sitting - they bring him everything like ours, french fries and everything else, and watermelon, and we, too, only in ONE SERVING, but for three !! ! THIS IS TOTALLY GOOD! That is, if you are alone, you get everything, and if there are three, then olives in a plate, cheese 3 pieces, and potatoes and watermelon ONE!! ! Just TIN! In general, we sit for breakfast once: we look around, they eat watermelon, but they don’t bring us! We ask, why didn't they bring us? Their answer is - what didn’t they bring to you? Gritting their teeth, they brought 3 miserable skibs, it was honestly unpleasant to ask for something at all! This is a very big loss this year! But I will repeat! This is probably only THIS year, because earlier, according to reviews, there was meat every day and more variety!
As for the room, it is wonderful, spacious, everything is new and everything works! But if you go to the parking lot, you can only sleep with the balcony door closed. The location is just great, close to everything. And this is the main advantage of the hotel. Also in the bar very good beer was poured from glass bottles into glass glasses, wine is also good red and white and that's it! NO hard alcohol!! ! WI-FI for free is very good everywhere: in the lobby, on the street, in the hotel up to the 3rd floor! Since we were on the 3rd floor, we didn’t catch it anymore, we had to either go outside, or on the second floor there are very comfortable chairs and a sofa! The rooms are very nice and spacious, LCD TV 32 inches.

In principle, I really liked the hotel: excellent location, close to the sea, everything is within walking distance. We went on the cable car to Antalya, we liked it very much! For a walk on a yacht all day - it's generally a bomb! And lunch, and a foam disco and 3 stops to swim!

We understood that we were going to the top three and did not expect much. I liked everything, except for the food, I wanted more choice and the buffet, and not what they bring to you! And to have its own beach. And so the holiday was very successful! The water was 30 degrees, the sea is beautiful!
