Before buying a hotel, I read the reviews, I understood that there were difficulties. Not everything is so scary.
We arrived at 11 o'clock from Bodrum airport, 3 hours on the way. Check-in at 14. Until that time, filled out the cards, received a bracelet. From 12 o'clock already a snack bar (burgers, french fries, nuggets, a bar with drinks) walked around the area nearby and inside.
Room on the 3rd floor. Soul killed. Honestly. Everything flows, including from the ceiling. There is shampoo and soap. No paste, no brushes. Hairdryer works exactly one minute.

Towels are changed every day. Everything is clean, fresh. The toilet is OK, but the flush button is broken. The room has a normal bed, a refrigerator, (water in it) tea accessories, a mirror, a wardrobe. The TV set is old, tube : ) there are 3 Russian channels. The air conditioner works fine, but we didn't use it : ) There is a warm blanket and a spare pillow. Linen was changed every 3 days. Balcony - 2 chairs, table. Ashtray. Non-smoking room : )) no clothesline for drying clothes. The balcony is dirty, they don't wash it.
Water. She is tough. Lots of chlorine. Soap does not lather.
Kitchen. Good. Very. Many, varied. Vegetables, fruits, meat, chicken, beef, fish. Salads, greens, side dishes. Sweet (from oriental sweets and pies to dried fruits). Fruits were watermelons, very tasty. Melons are so-so. Plums are delicious, peaches, nectarines are sweet but firm. If you lie down in the room for a day, then clear: ) the grapes are incomparable.
From 12 to 17 snacks.
Cocktails, beer, local wine, water, children's cocktails. Coffee, water.
Animation - try. Well done. Guys especially. Children's disco in the evening is monotonous, boring for children over 6 years old. During the day they draw and sculpt. For adults darts, boccia, pool Jim, basketball. The boys are great. Learn to speak Russian. One, the eldest, speaks perfectly.
Swimming pool. Good. The water is clean and there are plenty of chairs. One thing is bad - there is no division into smoking / non-smoking areas. I’m lying with a child and there’s smoke from all sides: (((It just pissed me off.
An employee walks around, collects glasses, ashtrays, wipes tables and floors.
Reception. Special thanks to the administrator Svetlana. Smart, bright person. He will always help, tell, tell, advise. Russian is her native language. She is not always on shift, but I was just waiting for her. Hasan still speaks Russian, but not much. But understandable. Everything is more in English. Both bar and reception.
How to get to the city. The city bus number 5 stops in front of the hotel. The fare is 3 liras per person. Some drivers speak Russian.

Beach. There is a hotel. The shuttle goes there according to the schedule. The beach is narrow and full of grass. The sun beds are partially broken. But there are no cigarette butts : ) clean. Umbrellas only from the hotel Silai Trezot. Next to the hotel is the city beach Ladies Beach. Walk 5-7 minutes. Down the road. There is a small market along the way. More expensive than the city, though : )) Beach with umbrellas and sun loungers. 15 lire per person. The sand is very dirty from the word. Tons of cigarette butts. Millions of locals on weekends. Everyone smokes. Better not even bother.
Excursions. Wherever you spit - history is everywhere : )) Ephesus, the house of the Virgin Mary, Pamukalle, Daylyan, fortresses. Who travels to Pamukalle and Daylyan - early departure, breakfast on the road dumb, meager. Take burgers, nuggets, water with you from snacks. For a breakfast of 1 egg and a slice of tomato will please few people : ). Lunch is included in the meals on the excursion and it is relatively normal : )
The blue crab in Dailyan is bullshit : ) even with beer.
In general, it is better to take excursions not from the hotel and the company (coral, mez and others) but in the city or on the beach. Or directly with taxi drivers to negotiate. It's much cheaper. Our guide from Koral did not speak Russian very well, to be honest, and he constantly brought us to some factories, wineries and other places of retreat. It got specific. What does all this product can be bought at the city market 3 times cheaper... are we going on excursions or going to factories? Okay, this has nothing to do with the hotel.
Leaving September 27th. It's already the end of the season. The hotel will then be closed for renovations. He really needs him.
The hotel belongs to the Sealight chain. This is Amara, sealight resort, Sealight family clab. I think the owners will be able to bring to mind this potentially large hotel. Apart from comments on plumbing and smoking, I have no complaints. Thanks a lot for the holiday!
