Отдых удался Rest was a success

I didn't get a chance to write a review right away. I read reviews of other tourists today and realized that everything is known in comparison and of course "tastes are different. " Rested with his wife and daughter 11 years from 12.06. to 27.06. I bought vouchers in Ukraine and flew with Coral Travel. We took a room in the Anex building (second) from the sea, right across the road, bought the cheapest standard double plus child room, did it on purpose in the hope of changing it if it didn’t work. The flight was from Boryspil, everything went fine, I was pleased that they did not charge entry fees from Russian citizens, they took 30 bucks from crests.
We arrived at the hotel at 11-00, I thought we would have to wait until 14-00, but no, we were settled immediately, only that's where.......The room was in the basement and stank of urine. I decided to change, at the reception they said that there were no problems, it's all about the price - 6 bucks per person per day, to the main building - 12 bucks. I was satisfied with my building, they went to look at the rooms, I didn’t like any of those offered, but when I walked along the 4th floor (upper), I saw how they were cleaning room 1464 (the room was with 3 full beds), asked if it was possible to check in in this number, received a positive response. I went to pay at the reception, they told me that there was no extra charge for this room, which I was incredibly happy about. He gave me a 5 bucks tip and went to check in.
I liked the room, there was a small balcony, a view of the road and the sea. A spacious room, a small corridor, a closet and a bathroom with a toilet, in general, everything is as usual. There are two buildings on the territory of Anex, the third one is away from the sea, one bar and two swimming pools, one is right in front of the entrance to our building. The truth was not cleaned very well in the room, although every day, the tip did not save the situation, I had to take his hand and poke his nose, then everything was ok. The floor was not washed, but only swept, towels must be thrown on the floor to be changed. I used waffle bedspreads and I didn’t like it, but the cleaner sculpted all sorts of animals out of them.

We went to eat in the main building, not stressful, there is also a swimming pool, but there are a lot of people there, so we swam in ours. The beach is large enough, a lot of sun loungers, enough for everyone, the sea is clean, there is a parking lot for water transport, which serve the hotel population for money, sometimes they interfered, fuel got into the water and it was unpleasant to swim. To take a place closer to the sea, you have to come to the beach by 8 o'clock, which I did, threw beach towels (they were in the room) and left for breakfast.
Beach towels must be changed in the main building at 17-00 (if later, it may not be enough). They are changed in the bathhouse, on the basement floor, where the dining room is also located. They fed well, did not remain hungry, but on the contrary, added 5 kg. For the second week, the food was simply tired, I wanted borscht, okroshka, pork. From meat there was only chicken, once they gave beef. There were many fruits, but mostly the same - watermelons, melons, plums, cherry plums, apricots. There were many sweets. From alcohol - beer, vodka, brandy, wine, cocktails. In principle, what to drink - it was difficult to get drunk, but some of our compatriots managed.
There was another cool thing, in the period from 14 to 16 hours, in some bars there was a snack hour where you can make hamburgers for yourself, they gave french fries, vegetables, it was cool (that is, gluttonous).
Of the vacationers - 70% - Soviet, and it was striking that many Kazakhs began to appear, this had not happened before. The rest are Germans, Poles, Serbs, etc.
I liked the animation - their composition is 5 people - 3 Russians, Turks and Moldavians, the last one in charge. Turk Eddu is a cool guy, somewhat reminiscent of Celentano. Every evening there were performances, including for children. Christina took care of the children. They lived in a nearby hotel, it was cheaper there. During the day there was volleyball, darts, bocha and other sports. In general, the hotel seems to be everything.
The staff is friendly, trying to please, many speak Russian.
On the fourth day of our stay, we took a shuttle bus to Antalya, a bus stop next to the hotel, the price to Antalya is 4 bucks or 6 liras (in general, the rate is 1 bucks - 1.75 lira), so it’s more profitable to pay in lira. We got to the Migros store and stayed there until the evening - I really liked the store, you can buy inexpensive things, there are inderim everywhere, that is, discounts.

The M-Migros supermarket also sells food, alcohol and clothes, of course, the prices are even very good. A bottle of beer costs 1 lira, while in Kemer it costs 3 bucks. We also bought fruits and sweets there, my wife bought a swimsuit, and my daughter bought a swim ring. Compared to Kemer, everything is much cheaper. I advise you to set aside one day and go there.
It is better to pay in bucks, change will be given in lira at the rate of 1.81 liters. - very profitable, I bought gum twice and gave 100 bucks. The bank costs 1.75, and they take a commission. After the store, we went out onto the road, closer to the sea, there is a bus stop, opposite its water park, got on the bus and back to Kemer. You can also dine in Migros. There are many cafes on the top floor.
I wanted to buy a local sim card, but it turned out a little expensive, I decided to use Skype. The hotel has free Wi-Fi in the lobby.
Every evening we went to the city center - to go far, it worked out for us, with shopping - 1 hour. There is a clock tower in the center, a restaurant below, near Attaturk Square with fountains. There is also a bus station. Nearby there is a Kerrifo store (you need to turn right from the road you were walking on, in front of the tower), there are relatively good prices for food and alcohol, opposite the hardware store, too, with normal prices. If you go further past these shops, then go to the highway.
You can get to the port and the dolphinarium, you have to go straight past the tower, leaving it on the right, then, the second intersection, to the left - there is Valkin Street, you have to go all the way (that is, to the sea), the dolphinarium will be on the right side of the road. A one-time visit costs 19 bucks, but it is short-lived and not worth the money, it is more profitable to go to Antalya, to the water park, where there is also a dolphinarium. You can walk in the center, there are many shops, cafes, foreigners. One problem is that it is far from the hotel, and the taxi is not cheap.
Yes, I almost forgot, never buy excursions from your tour operators, it is very expensive and not always of high quality. In Kemer, it is better to take tours from Ginza, the largest agency on the coast, their own buses, Russian-speaking guides, pretty well, you can bargain. Located on the right side of the road, on the way to the center.

Excursion to the church of St. Nikolai, for three they took for 60 bucks, with lunch, however, he was dumb. On the way they brought to Kekovo - a sunken city, rode on a boat, swam in the harbor, fed Dorado fish (15 bucks) and shrimp (8 bucks), it's worth it. Then he looked at the map - it turned out to be the Aegean Sea, well, or very close to it. Then they drove to the city of Mira - this is a city in the mountain, next to the amphitheater, little time was allocated for inspection. Then, as usual, they brought them to the store with icons - the prices are exorbitant, it’s better to take the icons with you and light them in the church of St. Nicholas. Then we went to the temple. Moreover, the cost of visiting the temple is paid separately - 10 bucks or 15 lira, it is better to pay in lira. I liked everything very much. On the way back, they again brought them to a store where onyx products were sold. At 19:00 we were at the hotel. We left at 09:45.
We didn’t go on excursions anymore, except for the water park in Antalya, we also took vouchers in Ginza, it cost 65 bucks for three - cheaper if we went on our own. I advise. The water park is good, they serve lunch (pizza or hamburger, ice cream, drink, beer). Enough. It is better to take water with you. It's best to go on a weekday. Lots of Turks on weekends.
I don’t tell about Antalya (review), since I was in Turkey twice before and this time I didn’t go anywhere else, but just roasted on the beach, fortunately, the weather allowed. It was about 40 degrees, water 27.
Before leaving, we were glad that they changed the flight for us, that is, we fly with another company, while later by 18 hours, that is, our vacation was extended, although we were evicted from the room at 12-00 and until 19-00 we lived on the beach, handed over our things to reception, took a shower in the sauna. It was ok, because we could use everything else without restrictions.
We flew back with the Wind Rose company - a very good carrier - the plane was new, the food was good. Duty free in Antalya is very expensive, in Kyiv it is better and cheaper, but the coolest was Domodedovo. Well, it seems that he told everything, if anything, I will add. Ask if you're interested.
Yes, I also forgot to say, one day, two tourists from Russia decided to go parasailing behind a boat, there was a strong wind, they were torn off and carried away to the mountains, thank God they survived, only got scratched. The Turks were sad about the parachute, but the next day they again began to ride everyone.
Have a nice holiday everyone.
