In my review I will try to state all the pros and cons of both the hotel and the rest in general.
PROS:
1. Green area. Very nice to be in the hotel. Lots of greenery, small paths, small three-story buildings. Looks cozy. Despite the fact that the territory is small, there is where to walk.
2. Delicious food. The chef and his assistants are just smart. Everything was very tasty. The food is quite varied: chicken, fish, barbecue, shawarma, rice, potatoes, pancakes, donuts, cakes, vegetables, fruits (watermelon, melon, apples, peaches, plums, grapefruit, grapes). There were no queues for food, but there were sometimes not enough tables. Therefore, I had to come to dinner not on floor 8, but on floor 9, when people made room. In general, I give 5+ for the food.
3. Clear sea and good beach line. The sea is within easy reach and what is most pleasant, although the beach is pebbly, the pebbles are small. They took special shoes for rafting, but walked in ordinary slippers.
Playing volleyball on the beach was not painful. Good entry into the sea. All beds with mattresses, which also adds comfort.
4. Hamam. The cost per person is $20. We liked everything, especially the fact that in the sauna, and when we were given a massage, there were no strangers and we were alone. There is a trip to the hammam in Kemer, where tour operators invite, but it is better to go to the hotel, because in Kemer the sauna is completely public.
MINUSES:
1. Old furniture. This is not a huge minus, but once again a reminder to the hotel that it is time to update the furniture. We had a fairly comfortable room, cleaned every day, but the room was on the first floor and the view from the balcony overlooked the fence of the neighboring hotel. Large gaps on the front door, and not only in our room. You go to bed and hear all the rustles in the street. The safe in the room is paid - $ 2 per day, but we did not use it.
The air conditioner was very loud, the hair dryer only worked when you constantly press the button with your finger, the shower leaked a little.
2. There are no discos. For those who do not like discos - this is not a minus at all. Every evening the animation invites you to go to a club in Kemer for $15. We didn't go, but we heard that the drinks there were very expensive: 0.5 glass of beer costs $12. My advice is to take a night boat ride where the foam party is included and drinks are fully included and the cost will be much lower.
3. Internet. A huge minus is Wi-Fi, but rather the lack of it. He worked slowly and then disappeared, then disappeared. You can contact your relatives only in a small stuffy room, where there is still a billiards. You are trying to hear what they are saying to you, and in the background the noise of falling balls, the conversations of everyone else. Our room was 10 meters from the lobby, but Wi-Fi was no longer catching.
NEUTRAL:
Those who travel to Turkey know that Turks are very intrusive people.
All the time they try to sell you something and foist it off, and it is very difficult to get rid of them. The same thing happens in every hotel. Our hotel is no exception to the rule. You lie on the beach and they start coming up to you and inviting you to look at the skin and fur, ride a boat, go to the hammam, play something, etc.
Ahmed can be called the most intrusive animator. I would say that he will raise the dead from the grave. It was really annoying, because you don’t always want to run, jump and have fun. I just want to lie in silence and look at the sea. But this rarely succeeded. The shows of the program were not always cheerful, rather laughter through tears. But sometimes dance groups performed, which added variety.
ADVICE:
DO NOT TAKE EXCURSIONS FROM TOUR OPERATORS! ! ! If you leave the hotel and walk to the left about 30 meters, you will see an agency called GINZA TRAVEL.
They normally tell everything, do not foist a trip and prices are two or even three times cheaper. For example, an excursion to Demre-Mira-Kekovo from Pegasus cost $60, and from Ginza - $35 (entrance to the temple is included). They were even better than Pegasus. The buses are large with air conditioning, a guide with excellent knowledge of the Russian language (Pegasus - Russian in Turkish style), the guide went with the group to all places (Pegasus - spoke only on the bus). I can say the same about rafting: Pegasus - $50, Ginza - $20. When people meet in the same boat and pay different prices, there is a lot of resentment. Ginza provides its own insurance.
You can independently go to the ancient city of Phaselis for $ 2.5. You just need to leave the hotel on the opposite side, stop the bus with your hand, go in, give money and say the word "Phazelis", then the driver will give you a lift to the ticket office. It opens from 9 am and the entrance costs 8 lira (only lira is accepted).
Pine forest, ancient ruins, clean beach and no rush.
I recommend this hotel to those who care about the beach, hotel grounds and food. For connoisseurs of exquisite interior, discos, it will not work.
