We rested at the hotel with a family (4 people) from August 12 to 21 from Aneks. The hotel at that time was half full, maybe that's why we had no problems with the settlement. We were met at the airport by a personal car, which took us to the hotel in 15 minutes, and the settlement took no more than 20 minutes. Our room was on level 4, we had no problems with walking up and down stairs. But I want to note that the lifts in the hotel are really steep and, therefore, for those who like to ride the elevator more than walk, it will be difficult. If you consciously do not want to pump up your leg muscles, then you should think before choosing this hotel. Although foreigners (English, Germans, Turks) with small children lived at levels higher than ours, they did not change their numbers, but ran upstairs with strollers. In general, this hotel can be called a family hotel, because the main contingent is families with small children, and most of them are foreigners. Fans of noisy, entertaining holidays have nothing to do here, you will be bored. We got to the beach by a hotel minibus, which runs strictly according to the schedule - once an hour. Take only sitting. There were no problems, everyone was always taken away, so I won’t even call the remoteness of the hotel from the beach 2 km away as a disadvantage. Once the whole family went on foot to the beach and from the beach. the journey takes about 40 minutes. Very hot and heavy, especially on the mountain. We no longer experimented and traveled by bus. Loved the beach with lots of free sunbeds. The sea is clean and transparent, very convenient for children, because the shallow (ankle-deep) spit is divided into 2 parts, shallow and deep. The length of the shallow part is 30 meters. The water in it is much hotter than at depth, and after swimming in the sea we sat in the shallow part for 30-40 minutes. Especially cool in the evening. They took with them a mask, snorkel, fins. Near the beach, the fauna is very scarce. only flounder, sometimes stingrays and rare fish. But I advise those who like to swim with a mask to go along the beach to the right side to the cliff. There is a quiet wild bay, and if you swim near and along the cliff, you can see sea urchins that sit in groups on the rock, and flocks of all kinds of fish, large and small, crabs, needle fish. In general, the spectacle is quite pleasant. . There, in the bay near the rock, there is even a source of mineral water. We went crab fishing with "crab man" Mike (a tall man of about 50, with a red bandana on his head). He arranges the tour himself. We really enjoyed. A sort of "green tourism" in Turkish. Crabs were caught and then eaten at Mike's house. He also takes him to a hydrogen sulfide source with mud. (Although the dirt is washed off, it is better to go in an old dark swimsuit). I recommend a trip with Mike, a very pleasant and not pushy person! About wasps at dinner. All 9 days we dined on the street, there were a lot of wasps, but they did not bite. In spite of wasps, all the tables on the street were occupied. Only families with small children sat inside the restaurant and those who did not have enough seats. With the onset of dusk, the wasps flew off to sleep. The only drawback I can name is not very liked the animation in the evenings. But this is purely our subjective opinion. I think that she suited many and it was fun. We watched TV in the evenings - there were very interesting films on the Planet RTR channel and we preferred their animations. And after the films we went back to the table on the terrace in the restaurant to drink drinks. The views in the hotel are really wonderful, a very beautiful area, immersed in greenery and flowers. At lunchtime, when you come from the beach, the air smells of pine needles and flowers, there is nothing like it downstairs. If you wish, you can diversify your vacation with excursions, but they are expensive and costly for the family. We walked in Sarigerme, nothing interesting, and the prices for small souvenirs are more than in a hotel. We were satisfied with the room, everything worked. they gave out 4 large and small towels for everyone, we didn’t even use them all. On the terraces in front of the rooms there are very convenient dryers, things dry perfectly. We had no complaints about the work of the staff, they do their work as established in the hotel, and not as some would like. It is advisable to learn at least elementary English phrases, then it is easier to solve possible problems and understand what others want from you. If you do not try to download your rights, but rest calmly, as foreigners do, then you will not notice any neglect of yourself. Enjoy your holiday! Kariya is a great choice!
