We have been to Marmaris 4 times. We chose the hotel because of the large territory, which is rare in Marmaris, and good varied food, we did not expect something supernatural from the rooms, but even modest expectations turned out to be even worse. I don’t even want to talk about hospitality, complete zero and disrespect for our tourists.

We arrived in it by a full bus, they said to expect until 16-00 and by this time almost everyone was settled in the neighboring Elysium hotel, which is 150 m away, for 2 days. We demanded a settlement in Pineta, they gave us the key and said that they would not change the room . Seeing the room, on the top floor under a roof, similar to a chicken coop, no more than 6 square meters in size, I wanted to cry. It was the worst room we have ever lived in, worse than the cheapest 3* hotels. As it turned out later, only Turks were immediately settled in the new building, and ours were in the farthest and worst rooms. They categorically refused to change.

At a meeting with the guide Elena, we heard the dissatisfaction of those tourists who were accommodated in a nearby hotel, but judging by the photo of Elysium, it would be better if they stayed there. In addition, there is a water park, free for visitors.

The host of the Meeting point said that they do not solve hotel issues, they only sell excursions. Why are they needed at all if they are of no use? Excursions can be bought anywhere and cheaper. The inveterate tourists did not want any excursions, they wanted to have at their disposal a room paid for in Pineta. Calls to the manager Rustam did not help either. He promised to relocate and did not. The warning that a negative review would be posted on Tripadvisor was answered in the affirmative. They do not care. We are used to the fact that tourists are dear guests, but here there is such an attitude, as if it were your own fault for coming.
Wi-fi is generally zero, late in the evening and very early, when there are fewer tourists breaking into it, you can write something in Viber, but we used the Internet from a travel agency, which is 50 m down the road from the hotel, having bought an excursion from them. The guys are cunning, they help our tourists like family, so many people buy excursions from them, although they are somewhat more expensive than others. Also, as a gift, they give an evening excursion on a korbalik with a foam disco without foam. If you refuel a little in front of her with alcohol, it will be very fun. For some reason, the Turks think that we are dancing to "Hands Up" and Verka Serduchka, guys, we have more modern songs, turn on yours better, it will be more exotic. They also give hamams with an additional $5 fare. We bought from them a trip to Rhodes and the islands, such as VIP, but to VIP, oh, how far. Wish to improve musical accompaniment and food.
It should be in trays of your choice, like in a hotel, and not pasta with sour salad, fish and 2 shrimp each on a plate))


If you go to the marina in the city and buy a tour directly from the owner of the boat, it will be no less interesting to ride along the bays with stops almost three times cheaper, although without shrimp and beer, but if you pay extra for beer and fish, it will still be much more profitable.

In terms of food, this is so far the best thing that was after 3 * hotels. Lots of variety, enough for everyone. When it ran out, they brought a new one. Drinks - delicious light beer, wine, cocktails from local alcohol, which is better not to drink. A very big plus is the work of 4 bars until 23-50.

The animation was good, games, competitions, shows in the evening, dancing with children for children.

We also looked at three Turkish weddings that are walking on the territory of the same hotel, but neither we nor they interfered with us, there is enough space and it is fenced.
For us, Marmaris is the pearl of the Turkish coast. It makes no sense to sit in a hotel, went on excursions or the cleanest beach of Icmeler. We recommend Nirvana or to the farthest corner from the final stop and to the right through the pier to the stones, immediately the depth and swim in the purest turquoise sea, as in the open.

The sea is a 5-minute walk from the hotel, we swam there 2 times, on the 1st day and the last, but we are not happy with it. Although tourists saw turtles there and swam with them and rejoiced.
We highly recommend shopping-MGM, Migros, Koton, Defacto.

You can take a walk in the center of the Old Town, see the singing fountains at 21-00, along the promenade with cafes and yachts. A lot of interesting. This is the city that never sleeps.

We recommend this hotel only at the lowest price if for two no more than 560 euros for 7 nights and during periods when they do not have Bayran, if you do not want to sleep on the street or in neighboring hotels, although it could be better there)
And we wish the hotel employees, in particular Rustam, the same hospitality in our countries that they provide to us.
