Молодежный отель с необычной архитектурой, из которого не хочется выходить Youth hotel with unusual architecture, from which you don’t want to leave

Let's start with the fact that the tour to Turkey, as usual, was booked in advance back in March, but alas, the quarantine made its own adjustments, namely, the initially chosen hotel had not yet opened, and three days before departure, the money had to be returned and rebooked to Orange County Resort Hotel 5 ( The procedure took a day, but I had to be nervous). My advice in these difficult times is to book hotels that are definitely open, although you can be sold tours to closed hotels, assuring that everything is ok and will open.
Upon arrival, we saw a chic view of the hotel, made in the style of a train station in Amsterdam, we arrived at 6.30 in the morning, very friendly staff sent us to breakfast and settled into the room at 9.20.
The room is clean, the repair is quite fresh, a free safe and a mini-bar that was replenished every day (Efes beer, Pepsi, Fanta, mineral water, juice, water), air conditioning worked properly, bathroom accessories are also available. The room is cleaned every day and towels are changed.

Unusual hotel territory, made in the style of a street in Amsterdam, the main restaurant (tomorrow, lunch, dinner), then two bars, a fast food restaurant (burgers, fries, pasta), a pizza stand on the street, at the end before going down to the beach cafe with a variety of sweets and ice cream. There are also several open bars around the area.
The hotel building is one, but long.
Great beach, and a pier with a bar. The bars also have mixes of nuts and chickpeas (there are many of them in different forms).
The beach is large pebbles, it is better to go down into the water from the pier or wear anti-corals, the waves were strong and you can hit the stones if you want to sit in the water near the shore.
Now 8 animators work in the hotels, very active guys, aqua aerobics, water volleyball are held at the pool, several times there was a disco with a DJ during the day near the pool, and they inflated water slides with games and a presenter.
At 21.00-21.30 evening show, during the week of our vacation, Colombian guys danced twice, and the standard mis, mister, couple of the hotel, there was bingo one evening (they handed out tickets at dinner).
Until 00.00 bars are open and music plays.
Iran, Turkey, Kosovo, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Tajikistan, and a little Ukraine rest in hotels.
Since the hotel is a youth hotel until 12.00 there are almost no people, they begin to wake up by lunchtime.
There is imported alcohol at the bars, but you need to ask, by default they pour local. The beer is good ephesus.
The vacation was great, the unusual architecture of the hotel makes you forget that you are on a beach holiday, the feeling that you are somewhere in Europe and go to places.
Special thanks for the service, not intrusive, all polite and friendly.
If we talk about covid safety, all the staff are wearing masks, at the entrance to the restaurant they give out masks and ask them to put them on, antiseptics are everywhere, the doors to the toilet open automatically, they clean constantly, the territory is clean and well-groomed.
Of the minuses, the hotel is famous for its discos, which are not now available, clubs in Turkey are closed and if somewhere they risk holding discos, fines.

Since the hotel is filled with a third of the strength, the food is less varied, we arrived on Saturday when many Turks were still resting, the food was more and tastier, already on Tuesday we felt the difference (one type of fish, two types of meat, mostly something stewed or from minced meat), of course you won’t stay hungry, but since it’s not the first time in Turkey, that is, with something to compare, even in 4k it was better.
For me personally, smoking was very disturbing, there are no smoking rooms in hotels and it is allowed to smoke everywhere, at the dinner table, watching the evening program, lying on sunbeds.
There are few children, this is more a party hotel, but 4 animators work for them, there is a disco in the evening, there is also a kids club and a swimming pool.
The change of towels is not very well thought out, the first time they bring it to the room, then you need to change it near the spa, which is in the basement in the reception area, and listen to the intrusive invitation to the hammam, due to this inconvenience, towels were rarely changed.
There is also a free sauna and two gyms (cardio and strength).
I definitely recommend the hotel for young people and, in principle, active people, and I can say that most likely we will come back in better times for full-fledged parties.
