Vacationing with my sister. At the time of the purchase of the tour and check-in at the hotel, there was not a single review of it on the Internet, only information on the website of the Biblio-Globus tour operator. Everything that is written there, you can forget and read the reviews.
A short conclusion immediately: price-quality, this is a guest house, hospitable hosts, 7 minutes from the sea, the food is delicious, for those who are not biased.

Our tour cost 3.000 r. For two from Moscow for 8 nights AL. Price-quality absolutely match. In the summer of 2020, it would be more expensive to relax in Crimea.
The hotel is run by a large family. The hotel is quite old, which can be seen from the bathrooms, air conditioning, TV, etc. But it was renovated in 2020. Cosmetic repair. Previously, the hotel was rented out by room to locals. Now it's more of a guest house than a hotel.

The hotel consists of two three-story buildings (no lift). The hotel has only one category of rooms - standart, but all rooms are completely different in size and condition.
To the sea ~ 600 m or 7 minutes.
The beach is sandy-pebble, pebbles in the sea. There were also umbrellas at the hotel (at the moment they are free), but you need to check at the reception where they are.
In addition to the rooms, the burial place has a small patio - it is also a garden / dining room / pool / bar and reception. There are ~6 sun loungers around the pool. There are tables around for food. Breakfast and dinner for two hours, for lunch only an hour. Food was taken out to a table outside. There was not much of it, but the food was very tasty and enough for everyone. There were always plenty of vegetables and some kind of fruit. Access to drinks around the clock: tea, coffee, water. During meals: soda and wine. The staff is always helpful and you can additionally ask for milk/butter/sauce.
Leaving the hotel on the road along the sea, if you look at the sea and turn left, there will be a Volmar supermarket - this is a chain, prices are fixed, you can pay with cards / contactless payment / dollars / euros / liras. You can also exchange money there.
The course is not the most profitable, but the closest exchange.
Wi-Fi is free in the hotel, but it works very poorly and very weakly. Sometimes downloads and sends messages to WhatsApp and that's it. If you go out onto the main road from the streets of the hotel, but opposite to the right there will be a cafe with a white fence - there is good Wi-Fi, there are drinks and kebabs. Not expensive. And also a hand crow. Wi-Fi password is changed every day.


First, we were settled in a 104-room on the first floor with a small veranda and an entrance (aka a door and a window) to the courtyard, i. e. to the pool garden, and it is also a place for breakfast / lunch / dinner. The room had a double bed and a single bed, an old sofa, a new dressing table and two bedside tables, an old wardrobe and air conditioning. Also ants and midges. Another curtain hanging over the bed and a non-working air conditioner. We stopped by at the end of dinner, it was evening. It immediately became clear that it would not be quiet in the room because of the people resting in the garden. We were asked to be relocated. In the morning we were moved to room 501.
It is located on the 3rd floor of one of the buildings. Looks fresh, but much smaller. Especially the bathroom, where the shower / toilet / sink is one small room and with a weak pressure of water. This room was more comfortable, there were no midges and the air conditioner worked, but only in one mode - cold 18 ° C. From the relocation to another room did not become quieter - the audibility from all the rooms is terrible. The walls are cardboard, and the doors are plastic, which are usually placed on the balcony. Maybe you will have more luck with vacationers, but at lunchtime we listened to children screaming by the pool, for dinner they and adults drinking until one in the morning, at 5 in the morning, roosters. And so in a circle. Sleep was impossible.

If you do not take into account the misinformation of the tour operator and talk only about the hotel, then 100% price-quality. The hosts are very welcoming, they care and try to help in any matter (especially if you are also friendly), they clean on request, every day they tried to improve something for tourists.
They cook very tasty.
If it wasn't for the screaming kids and uncultured vacationers, this would be a great family run hotel.
P. S. There are no loud music, children's discos and pool parties. The mosque can only be heard in the distance. The sea is clean. There are few cafes in the area. In general, a quiet Turkish village.

P. P. S. Perhaps someone will be interested in how to get to Antalya. Get out on the road along the sea - stop on the right. Waiting for bus 07 Kemer-Otogar (bus station). The bus (rather like a large minibus) stops by raising your hand. The fare at the time of the recall was 7.5 lira one way. The price is on the driver's side. You go either to the Migros stop (a large supermarket and shopping center) and go through the parks to the old city (5 km), or go to the Otograr metro stop (it's a tram) to go to this stop from the hotel about 40 minutes. Get down to the "metro" and go to the stop "Iametpasa" (closest to the old town). The fare costs 3.2 lira (40 rubles).
), you can pay with a contactless card at the turnstile. You can also take the tram to the Mall of Antalya - a large shopping center with athletes (it takes 40 minutes to drive from Otogar). Also along the tram route, in the center, there is the Mark Antalya shopping center - also large. And nearby are large LC Waikiki and Fulla stores (local brands, there is a Fulla outlet on the way to the Mall of Antalya). Go back to Beldibi by tram to the stop "Otogar", follow the signs "Otogar" to the bus station, ask for a bus to Beldibi and you will be prompted. For all movements, I advise you to download the maps application. me and download Antalya and Beldibi there. The application is free. Works offline and will help you find your bearings a bit.
