We spent our honeymoon at this hotel. Before going to Kusadasi, you need to know that mainly locals and Europeans rest here, the hotels here are all good, but not at an excellent all inclusive level. Only a few speak Russian, English at a very basic level. On weekends, hotels fill up with a lot of locals - keep all this in mind before choosing Kusadasi.

For us, the main criterion was a beautiful view, a room with a sea view, good food, a sandy beach. What we received in fact, I will tell you in more detail about each item:

About the beaches

There are two beaches on the territory of the hotel: from concrete slabs and sand and pebble (more of course pebble). Sunbeds, umbrellas in sufficient quantity, especially on weekdays when there are no locals.

There are also two pools, one of which has slides, but we do not swim in the pools in principle when we come to the sea

So it was important for us that the hotel had a sandy beach, but in this sense, the hotel certainly disappointed: the beach is small, there are a lot of pebbles, there are a lot of large stones at the bottom, a lot of algae washed ashore (probably it was high tide), the staff does not serve the beach practically, only periodically remove garbage.

BUT 10 minutes walk from the hotel there is an ideal urban sandy beach Ladies beach: no stones, clear water, gentle entrance, clean. Umbrella and two sunbeds for the whole day ~$8. But it’s better to go there on a weekday, because a lot of locals come to Kusadasi for the weekend

Russian is practically not spoken on the Aegean coast. The staff of this hotel is no exception - no one speaks Russian and I will say even more: English is normally spoken only at the reception, but it was possible to explain with simple English words and gestures)

About food

There is a main restaurant, 2 a la carte restaurants, 2 snack bars near the pool.
Three of the declared 5 places are open: the main and a la carte restaurants, and one snack bar near the pool.

Main restaurant: there are long queues, the choice of food does not change every day, but becomes more or less varied by the weekend when the locals come. There are many types of meat / fish, vegetables, rice, french fries and pasta, cherries, watermelon, peaches, apples, pears, sometimes melon from fruits. Delicious pastries are served only on weekends, on weekdays you should not even take them. The food is very tasty and we liked it, in general, the main thing for me is that there are french fries and this is the perfect place for me

Snack bar by the pool: during the day they serve delicious pizza, burgers, pasta, so you can easily arrange lunch here. In the evening they serve ice cream and pastries.

A la carte restaurant: we remembered about it on the last day, of course, there were no places, so sign up early in the morning and probably a couple of days in advance.
Drinks are standard (cola, fanta, sprite, yuppie), there is instant and Turkish coffee, I can’t tell you about alcohol, but the cocktails were more or less normal

The visiting card of the hotel is the views, the pier and the waves. Dinner overlooking the sunset, the waves, the atmosphere is magical.

Animation is, entertainment shows are arranged every evening.
