We chose the hotel at the last moment, based on reviews and photos on the Internet. Initially, they chose hotels in Side in Antalya for October, but when they saw the photo of Atlantis, they fell in love in absentia and decided to take a chance, despite conflicting reviews. So, we arrived in Izmir at 5 in the morning, we were already at the hotel at 6:15, but they settled us closer to 11, they said they were preparing the rooms.

We chose the hotel at the last moment, based on reviews and photos on the Internet. Initially, they chose hotels in Side in Antalya for October, but when they saw the photo of Atlantis, they fell in love in absentia and decided to take a chance, despite conflicting reviews. So, we arrived in Izmir at 5 in the morning, we were already at the hotel at 6:15, but they settled us closer to 11, they said they were preparing the rooms. But they immediately invited me to breakfast. By the way, the staff really does not speak Russian, English and German are a priority, since the hotel is focused on Germans and locals mostly. Inspection showed a huge green area, with palm trees and clean alleys between 2-storey bungalows, sea views from above, an old mill, lawns, everything blooms and smells sweet. The beauty!! ! Figures of fairy-tale characters, an amphitheater, Harry Potter's castle, all as in the photo in the reviews and description of the hotel, were immediately struck by the views from the restaurant to the sea and mountains. Our room was on the 1st floor, no complaints in principle, but we noted the "tired" plumbing and a smoldering hair dryer, there was a reason not to dry our hair once again. In general, everything is tolerable. Cleaning and change of towels in the room daily. Well done, and no rewards, by the way. The food suited us well. . A large selection of vegetables, greens, fish every day, from meat-chicken, kebabs, stew with vegetables of various types, french fries and nuggets, a lot of pastries and sweets, delicious pita bread with cheese, from fruit-melon, delicious sweet grapes, plums, apples . Coffee, Turkish tea, carbonated drinks from vending machines, standard. During the day, a woman baked cakes in the Orient bar. Alcohol is worse. Beer is tolerable, from cocktails - gin, vodka with various drinks, once they gave something like Baileys. There are only three bars. Near the reception, Orient Bar - they serve Turkish coffee and tea, ayran, fresh cakes from 14 to 16, in the evening there is a hookah, etc. , there are many locals there and in general it is very colorful. The main bar in the hall near the stage, in the evening sometimes worked extra. bar in the main restaurant. And another bar on the beach where the rocks are. There are four beaches: the first (it looks like a municipal one) across the road from the hotel with a gentle entrance to the water, the second is next to the restaurant down the stairs, which with a bar, we almost always were there, it is the most comfortable, another small beach near an artificial waterfall below, and the fourth beach is the beach of the neighboring Maya hotel, they enter the sea from a wooden platform. No one from the beach of the Maya hotel drove the guests of Atlantis away. Pools: three adults and two children, 4 slides. Animation worked not very intrusively: with children during the day, games, volleyball, yoga (in German - a bummer), in the evening there was also a program, well, such an amateur, as they say. There is nothing directly next to the hotel, there are only three hotels on the coast. We traveled on emerald buses to Sigasik and Seferihisar, there is a bus stop next to the hotel. Sigashik is the old fishing district of Seferihisar, there are several beautiful old streets with pensions, cafes and shops, super! We bought souvenirs and handmade dishes there. Prices are absolutely acceptable. There are many ships on the pier, you can take a day trip with swimming at very low prices, we did not succeed. Closing of the season - it is more profitable for captains to fish as we were told. : ( On the other hand, we went to ancient Ephesus, took a taxi and drove off ourselves. Delight! They didn't let each other get bored. Lesha, Liza, Sasha, Tanya and Lyudmila, hello to you if you are reading a review. : ) What can I say for sure - our family is happy with the rest, I, my husband and son are 11 years old. There is no disappointment or unpleasant aftertaste at all. I can recommend the hotel to people who know at least a little bit of English, lovers of a relaxing holiday (clubs are far away, and discos in the hotel are specific), well, not lazy : ), the territory is large, you need to walk decently. We were glad of this after hearty lunches and dinners. The hotel is quite a solid 4ku.

Rested in August with my daughter and grandson 4 years. This hotel is mainly for Turks. They allow their children to throw stones into the sea. The result - my grandson's head was smashed. We spent the day in the hospital, sewing up the wound. None of the hotel administration bothered about the health of the child and did not apologize.

Rested in August with my daughter and grandson 4 years. This hotel is mainly for Turks.
They allow their children to throw stones into the sea. The result - my grandson's head was smashed. We spent the day in the hospital, sewing up the wound. None of the hotel administration bothered about the health of the child and did not apologize.
The next day we rested in a makeshift gazebo near the sea away from the sun. There are Turks in the gazebo, but they smoke everywhere, There is no ban on smoking in public places. No one heard our request not to smoke close to the child, including the administration.
A couple of days later we wake up at 2 am from the noise of a walking Turkish company. Please be quiet, we are sleeping. At first we were advised to close the doors (and they are already closed), then take a pill and sleep. We called the reception. I'm waiting for the arrival of Russian-speaking staff. It turns out that this is a problem for such a hotel! The guy from the reception came and said that the Turkish tourists had no problems, but I had problems and showed my hand at the door so that I could sleep. I didn't go to bed. But she began to loudly describe the problem. Then he waved his hands and said to wait 5 minutes. After 15 minutes, someone who understands Russian came. For about 20 minutes, he, with vacationing Turks, a hotel worker and a dozen other service personnel, allowed themselves to discuss me in my presence (the word "light brown" was often used) and, moreover, I did not understand them.
After listening to the Turks, this guy came up to me with the words that the company did not violate anything. To my indignation, he first said that I was a guest, and not he was a guest, then he calmly says, she went to x-th. HERE IS YOUR TRUE PERSON - ATLANTIS HOTEL!! ! Turns out it was the animator.
In the morning, the Russian-speaking Sonya at the reception said that she knew everything and that the Turkish vacationers were reprimanded.
Simple as that! No one said a word about the boorish behavior of the hotel staff. Everything is covered! I was not provided with a meeting with the owner of the hotel for 5 days. Sonya said that he was not. There is no one to talk to, I don't know Turkish.
SUMMARY
About a thousand people rest here. Constant movement. Here they do not want to know about the problems of the hotel staff. Here they DO NOT RESPECT YOU and they wanted to spit on your vacation. Be quiet and you will be smiled. If not, then they will calmly say "FUCK YOU! "
I DO NOT RECOMMEND A STAY IN THIS HOTEL.

The first impression is not bad: a huge territory, landscaping, clean water, sea air, but... If you read this opus to the end, you will understand that there are no four stars here at all, and three - with a big stretch. Our check-in turned out to be quite long, allegedly “the rooms were cleaned for a long time after the departed guests”.

The first impression is not bad: a huge territory, landscaping, clean water, sea air, but... If you read this opus to the end, you will understand that there are no four stars here at all, and three - with a big stretch.
Our check-in turned out to be quite long, allegedly “the rooms were cleaned for a long time after the departed guests”... The Coral tour operator did not even bother to ensure the presence of its representative upon the arrival of our rather large group, later it became clear why... Most of us solved the problem for € 10 - 25 with the acceleration of check-in through the hotel staff (apparently, the representative of the tour operator is also in the share), but upon arrival in the room there was not even a shadow of this long and painstaking cleaning (windows and mirrors are dirty, century-old dust under the furniture... ).
Bed linen and towels are always dirty, poorly ironed, all stained. There are stains on the walls from water leaks. No soundproofing in the rooms! It is better to take pillows with you, it seems that the available ones are made of ropes twisted and tied into knots. Often there are interruptions in the water supply!
The number fund for a long time and persistently requires deep and thorough modernization!!!
On the one hand, I was pleased with the restaurant: a varied and high-quality menu, and on the other hand, it was frustrating - complete unsanitary conditions, worse than in Egypt: the tables are dirty and greasy, flies everywhere, dishes and cutlery are washed very poorly, just like fruits and vegetables, but stray cats and dogs roam freely throughout the restaurant, horror!! ! Be sure to take medicines for gastrointestinal infections with you if you still decide to visit the hotel!!!
Very upset, though free, but sooooooo slow Wi-Fi and the complete absence of Russian TV channels!
The declared daily cleaning of the room is of poor quality and does not stand up to criticism, the vacuum cleaner is not used at all, the dirt is simply carried around the room with a smelly rag, the plumbing is not cleaned at all!! ! There were cases when the room was not cleaned for three days and you had to call and call the staff to order. Cleaning of rooms, their pest control, as well as mowing the lawns under the windows are carried out not during the absence of vacationers in the rooms, but during the afternoon rest (sleep) and nothing else. It is during lunch in a restaurant directly in the eating area that they will dismantle the roof and change the smoke exhaust system, not earlier or later, so that your plates with dishes are covered with a decent layer of “seasoning”. This is a customer-centric approach
The main beach just sucks, there are more cigarette butts on it than grains of sand! Two small beaches on the rocks for only 50-60 people are in complete decline, however, sun loungers must be occupied on them until 6 in the morning, there are no places after. But the sea is gorgeous) Sometimes there is a breeze and a storm, after that the water cools down a lot, but this is nonsense compared to the rest... And not a single lifeguard!!!
There is absolutely no first-aid post, no thermometer, no brilliant green, no iodine. Only an attentive dude with a beard, more like a jihadist than a doctor.
You can't find an iron and ironing board in the hotel, but there is an ironing service available for €2!!!
Animation for children is available, however, it is very monotonous. There is a day care group for children. For adults, all the entertainment is designed only for the Turkish-speaking audience.
Excursions offered by the tour operator, in our opinion, are very expensive and it is far to go everywhere. It’s better not to think about a shopping tour at all, a complete scam and a waste of time at four baited spots!
Surely, the ignorant will be interested in observing the local public: there are plenty of Russians, but most of all the Turks (some of them have long been Germanized and brought their Bundesfrau to their historical homeland), there are enough Germans, Belgians themselves, even Poles and Ukrainians come across.
It seems that the hotel is really designed only for locals, apparently, that is why the Turks just openly spoil themselves, litter, our compatriots, oddly enough, appeared in the best light compared to them and other "hotbeds of civilization") The young offspring of Turkish are constantly yelling Sultan with the complete indifference of their mothers. Ours would have given a slap and it would have been enough for a month in advance) We watched a scene here when a mother in a restaurant, with the full connivance of the staff and tenderness of civilized Europeans, during lunch, substituted an empty glass from the table for her 3-4-year-old son to urinate !! ! And at the end of this sacrament, she calmly put this already filled glass on the table and, as if nothing had happened, continued the meal!! ! Who will then be lucky to drink from this glass? Maybe you)? Wild country - wild customs... And yet they are breaking into highly cultured Europe)
The “highly esteemed pasha” also rested here with a harem of four dull-draped ladies... The 21st century is in the yard!
Periodically, a German-speaking lesbian couple came across with the sister of one of these “pious ladies” who joined her and the daughter of this sister, who is 15 years old and she, like everyone else, watched their gentle mutual hugs and strokes. And this is in a Muslim country!
EVERYTHING AND EVERYWHERE smoke and this is a big problem!! ! With children and without them, a mess!! ! Even Muslim-dressed women smoke! You will definitely burn beach towels and clothes!!!
Children from a year and older are all with smartphones, left to their own devices! We saw how in the common hall this child for about a year and a half first tormented the smartphone, sitting on a chair next to his relatives, and then climbed onto the table and continued the lesson. Nobody even said a word to him!
If you have read to the end, then you have almost all the information to make a decision on the advisability of purchasing a tour to this hotel) complete absence. In addition to two or three employees of the reception and accommodation service, NO ONE knows Russian at all! But do not flatter yourself, if you, if necessary, turn to the staff who understands you with a request to provide the “late check-out” service for an additional fee of € 30, then you will definitely be refused even if you have such an opportunity (tested on yourself), while they will smile broadly and deeply regret about it. In our opinion, for a two-week tour, the red price is $ 2.000 for a family with a child with a flight, transfer and insurance, but we wouldn’t even go here a second time for that kind of money...

Photoshop rules. We are in this hotel for the third day. There has never been a worse vacation in my life. The hotel is dirty, there are flies in the rooms on the first floors, in the rooms under the beds there is a carriage of dirt. But!!! ! I will give credit that bed linen is changed every day. Around the pool cigarette butts, diapers, plastic glasses roll around.

About the sea is a separate issue, the beach is dirty, sewage is nearby and it blooms, green water. The rocky beach has about 20 sun loungers and...... turu-tutu-tutu...... the water does not warm up and +19 degrees. children don't swim
