The question of the sea
Tell me if there are strong waves? Is it really the 2nd line (on this site it says that the 2nd and on the rest the 1st ??)
is it far to the beach?
is there a bar on the beach? (for all) is it free?
With regards to lying on mattresses, towels and umbrellas, tell me what and where for a fee and for free (sea, pool)

during our 11 days of staying on this beach there were no strong waves, the presence of a breakwater affects (we went to another beach at night - there were very big waves, and there are also waves on the sandy spit in Manavgat)
The line is really the second, but the promenade, first between small shops, and then along a shady flowering street, personally gave me pleasure and took about 5 minutes of easy walking with stops for photo shoots.
There is a bar on the beach. from 10 o'clock you can take water and drinks, and from 12 - french fries and hamburgers, in which (let the dissatisfied people throw them at me) you can feel the presence of meat (!!!), and not just soy, as they said here. All this is free until 16.30, then the bar closes!
There are no beach towels, it is forbidden to take out bath towels (a fine), if you don’t want to bring your own, you can buy it in shops (at the same time a souvenir will remain) - $ 10, you can bargain.
On the beach, sun loungers and mattresses are free, you can always find a place under an umbrella, not on the first line, of course, or take it early in the morning where you like (we didn’t take it, you can put things anywhere)
Near the pool, paid mattresses are supposed, but no one took them), and the sunbeds are free! Get in touch if you need anything else!

I really liked the beach. and if you move a little further, that the hotels have cemented the entrance to the sea, which is very inconvenient. Therefore, many people come to swim with us too. de jure, this is really the 2nd line, but believe me, walking to the sea among beautiful blooming flowers is a pleasure!

yes, Sentido beach is much worse, there is a lot of algae and even in calm, and there are more huge stones
And there are zones for water sports every 3 beaches, and I didn’t notice gasoline stains

I recommend to go to "Turpravda" to see the reviews. There, in addition to the screams of those who are always dissatisfied with everyone, there are quite objective reviews with photos. Last year, my sister rested there in May on a last minute trip, she was very pleased.

100 meters to the sea along a flowering alley, so it's not even worth talking about. Waves in a storm are everywhere, even in hotels of the Kempinski level. As for bad reviews, in most cases it is from the inability and unwillingness of our fellow citizens to compare the amounts of money they paid with their own requests. The hotel is not without flaws, but quite normal for an average budget.

Do not be nervous. It is worth talking about the distance to the sea, since the question was "is it really the second line, how far is it to the beach." Yes, the second one, no, not far, but running into the room in swimming trunks will not work.
The fact that there are waves in Kempinski does not negate the fact that they happen on the beach of the wonderful Bella Sun hotel. What the citizens compare - them, the citizens, is a private matter. The task of the tourist is to take into account objective things (such as the lack of beach towels) and draw conclusions on their own.

The second line, 150 m along a shady alley between flowers and sculptures. There is a bar on the beach, you can drink and even eat. The beach is shallow, sandy, there are stones in the water, big turtles swim to the shore.

The "Wikimapia.org" line from the beginning of the promenade, from the first shop to the arrival in Verano gives 91m, to the beach bar another 184 (total 274m), to the water another 85 (total 360m).
It used to go to the beach for 3 days a day, it’s cool at night, but by no means deserted! Do not forget to show the children the mullet on the pier and organize a "hunt" for crabs on the breakwater, where you can also meet turtles if you are lucky. Good luck!

To what extent? Ie, SW. The author must (zhna) conclude that your compatriot knowingly turned off her vacation on the 4th day of her stay?
You advised Belek 3*, thank you, but is it +XXL to the food budget?

Walk in the shade even 200 m without straining. We spoil the rest ourselves. As a rule. If you are set to positive, then the rest goes well, and you need to measure your appetites with the resources invested in the rest. I recommend SANRAIS QWIN 5 * to the author, but the price will not be in Bell

Yes, I completely agree with you. I can understand this position, but I can't accept it. Well, it happens, well, no luck: we spent a day with the children at the airport, then on the bus for 3 hours, then you “live” in a suitcase until you check in, then at the reception they offer a combination or another hotel, then in the lobby you notice a chip on the table leg .. And away we go... Really then look everywhere (and find!!!) Troubles. BUT WHY???!!!
And Sunrise Queen impressed us too ... Upon arrival, I searched on the Internet, where for our family 2 + 2 from $ 5350 / week, "observation" begins, and this is a completely different topic and for me personally it is not interesting, I spend this money differently I can, for example, on a yacht similar to the Adriatic or the Cyclades.
People spend 2 days just getting to know this hotel. "Peacocks, you say? Hmm." That's just not to find fresh reviews from compatriots, in confirmation of my thoughts about the expediency of spending ...

I'm glad for the coincidence of opinions. That's why lately you've been reading more and more in the reviews - the lack of - THE PRESENCE OF RUSSIAN. This year I was looking for a vacation where at least 25 percent of Russians, no more. This year I was in Kemer Sailors Beach Club, well, there wasn’t there are problems, take a sunbed on the shore or the beach, score a place at the table or at the bar to demand a glass of vodka.
In terms of expenses, this year I went on my own, ignoring travel agencies. It turned out cheaper and no worse, or maybe something better

Very interesting!
I mean, did you SUCCESSFULLY compete with monsters like Tez in their field?! Cool. But the guys buy hotels by floors and for months, and air tickets - by the sides. Well, with hotel services, I can understand - a direct dialogue can bring a decent discount (the same Finnish cottage on a St. Petersburg site and in English-speaking Finnish is twice the price). In terms of insurance, the differences are even more interesting - however, these are pennies. But flying to Antalya in the season is expensive, if you don’t take care of it in the spring (I don’t look that far). Justify, pliz.

I justify - I book the hotel via the Internet at the time when I need it. I flew with a low-cost airline (budget airline) at the end of June. The plane was half empty. Not all hotels work with monsters, and you also don’t want to get involved, like with KARIYA TOUR.

Guys, your opinion is just as valid as mine.
I think this hotel is bad. And it’s not at all about a flight delay or chipped legs, you yourself understand this very well.
"You advised Belek 3 *" Not true, did not advise. I don’t even know if there are 3 * in Belek at all.
But 3 * in Fethiye, even on HB, will give odds to this Bella Sun in all respects - from the cleanliness of the pool to the QUALITY of food. Those hotels in Kemer that I mentioned work for the all.
And by the way, I also went on my own last year, and I'm going to this year. So, the choice of budget hotels for self-booking is very extensive.
Sailors Beach is a great hotel, I agree, and there are few Russians, which is a plus.

Thank God that we have not yet reached Fethiye with our nihilism, otherwise all the garbage heaps in the area will also see mosquitoes on the walls. Again, I repeat about the correspondence of price and quality. In Sunrise, they meet you with flowers from the airport (read the reviews), but...
the price is 5-7 times more expensive. Let them rest within their means, even on tattered sofas, even in a hut.

It feels like you just don't hear me :))) In each category and for each price there are normal offers and there are bad ones. If for the price you paid for "Sailors Beach" you got, for example, "Kemer Rich" you would also be dissatisfied. And it's not about "rest within your means."
By the way, in the same Fethiye, in mid-July, I paid $ 330 for Seketur 3 *, I flew from Tez Tour, and this hotel cannot be compared with Bella Sun.

SW. Pachok, with great pleasure read the reviews about SEKETUR3 *, with even greater pleasure I would go there ... without children. Alas, the views from the window and the springs will not replace slides and animations. And for 330 "green" - absolutely Gut! How many nights is this? Reviews about Fet(x)ie hotels here, on Turpravda, vary in the same way - from "Wonderful" - "Great" to "Do not believe" - "Disappointment" through "Think carefully". Alas, the same rake ... I don’t understand what is the reason for such a spread of opinions - after all, there is no such polarity in real estate valuation, right? Even for cottages, where there is much more subjective than when evaluating an apartment (I will make a reservation right away: I am not a realtor).
This is incomprehensible to me!
And you yourself, for an hour, were not in San Bell until 2008? There are opinions that the hotel has changed a lot for the better since the season before last.
Personally, I'm here trying to understand for myself personally what you can count on in Turkey for some money.
I already said: this year the budget and deadlines were tight, but the pleasures were received - the sea! What cockroaches? What kind of dogs? Nothing to eat or drink? What are you people talking about? It would be great to find a hotel - a real pearl, I'm afraid only of him, like a chorus nanny, they pass from hand to hand and once again they don't "shine" :)

330 for 7 nights and 7 full days turned out.
I think reviews vary for several reasons:
- everyone has different expectations
- everyone has different goals
- everyone has different previous experience (is there anything to compare with)
- subjective factors such as "cute animators" and the amount of alcohol
- even more subjective factors, for example, my friend never writes good reviews for hotels that she likes, so that "ours" do not throw them there, and the hotel does not deteriorate :)))
And some other comrades, even if they didn’t like the hotel, they still praise it and write rave reviews, such that it’s not so insulting that they “hit” themselves, let others rejoice :((
Personally, I always voice negative experiences, because I don’t want other people to get into a bad situation, and I voice good experiences, basically, only to friends, taught by bitter experience.
Because I had a case when I praised the hotel on one forum (I'm not the only one, however), and then for many years I could not buy a ticket to it because it became "stop" in the spring for the whole summer, and then prices were so inflated there that I don’t go to it because of my unwillingness to give 2500 USD. for a modest Turkish 4 *.
Yes, in 2008.

Probably so. My friends accidentally ended up "from among the guests" in a sanatorium in Belarus, they liked it so much that now they only tell the coordinates in the closest whisper :)
Actually, I still think that it is much more interesting to drive around the country than to sit on the same beach. If there is permission from above, the next time the rest will be active, with trips and visiting friends. If the situation of this summer repeats itself, I will try to take Bella Sun, only through Minsk, if this is possible.

I just returned from Kumkoy, a friend lived in Bella Sun, the hotel, compared to the hotels offered in the area, which are sold for Russians, is not very bad. The beach is excellent, the road to the beach is 5 minutes, as they wrote along a shady street, the food is good 4 *, there are no queues in the restaurant. Value for money is excellent, the staff is friendly, not pushy. Indeed, locals say that tourists were not happy with the hotel before, but recently they have been praising it.
This time I also went on my own "competing with monsters" (Pachok, many thanks for the transfer contacts, excellent company, everything is clear and not expensive), I liked it. She lived in an apartment, no children, no drunken compatriots - beauty.
