I will briefly try to describe my impression of the Pigale Beach Resort (3 *) hotel. And so I’ll start in order: the information about the hotel in the tour companies is false: there is no disco on the territory of the hotel, it’s very far to go to the beach, the beach is dirty, and there are very few chairs, there aren’t enough for everyone, the hotel staff is not friendly and doesn’t know Russian, rooms the hotel is very modest and the water in the tap is salty and nasty from the entertainment on site, only music and slides in the pool, which are often closed, and the photos of the hotel on the site do not correspond to reality…. Everything is very boring, one gets the impression that this is not a hotel at all, but a boarding house for grandparents who decided to spend their old age in silence, there are no young people at all, there are no Russian-speaking tourists. After 23.00 both inside and outside the hotel there is a quiet hour... Animation is presented from a bunch of constantly stoned photographers who have fun only themselves, but in no way cheer people up, if they go out and start dancing by the pool, then they only dance they, yes, in principle, there is no one to dance there, because, as I already wrote, purely pension is resting there. The hotel area is very small and is located next to the highway, so all the dust flies into the pool, and outside the territory there is nothing to do at all: a landfill, bushes and nothing else. The city center is far away, as a result, you can’t rest in the hotel and it’s expensive to get to the city. There is only one discotheque "HAVANNA", which is located nearby, but 2 times we went to it and made sure that apart from three Turkish guards with badges, no one dances there, because there is no one, the disco is empty and they just poke you in the face a menu for you to buy something, which is not cheap and pointless, because there is nothing to do in this disco. As for food: since we were in Turkey for the first time, it seemed to us that the food seemed to be not bad, but when we got to another hotel and compared, we realized that this was not even food: instead of meat, thin slices of cheap soy sausage, everything is far not the first freshness and to eat you have to stand in line. And to drink, if you take more than one glass, then they look askance at you, and if you ask for more than 2, then it is imperative that you bring more people at the rate of 2 glasses per person. In general, the hotel is very terrible, no service, no entertainment, food is nowhere worse. And we are very glad that the first days were very noisy and interfered with others, and because of this we were kicked out and settled for free in another Grand Efe (4 *) hotel, if we compare them, then this is an absolutely different level, this is a vacation where no one who does not interfere and in the soul is a solid positive, the food is super: a bunch of meat, delicious fish, shrimp, mushrooms, a bunch of salads, garnish, vegetables, fruits, watermelons, melons, apricots, oranges, a lot of sweets and desserts. You won’t try the entire assortment in a week, everything is in an unlimited number and at any time. From alcohol - vodka, crayfish, beer, wine, liquor, brandy, various cocktails, if you like the bartender. The hotel area is huge, its own beach 10 meters from the hotel, 3 swimming pools, good animation, a lot of entertainment, tennis courts, golf, football, volleyball, basketball, catamarans, canoes, disco, bars, restaurant, shop....I have not been to other places in Turkey, but if you compare these 2 hotels, then this is equivalent to comparing a vacation in a cheap resort and a vacation that will be remembered for a lifetime. Many of the staff are Russian-speaking and all are quite friendly. There are a lot of Belarusians among the vacationers, there are also Russians. But the hotel is more family friendly and if you already choose a youth hotel, then it is better to fly to Kemer, Alanya, Antalya or Marmaris. But, for a family holiday, the hotel is perfect and value for money is good. Some paid even less for a ticket to this hotel than for Pigale Beach Resort (3 *)
