Очень приличный отель, до пляжа идти 15 мин или бесплатный трансфер от отеля Very decent hotel, walk 15 minutes to the beach or free transfer from the hotel

I'm from Russia. Many countries that I flew to before are now closed to us. Therefore, I flew to Turkey, where else now)). Chose the ratio - price - quality. Rested alone. Impressions are not even bad, and the hotel did not disappoint. Firstly, it is located in the center of Manavgat, but in a quiet place, and all the shops, bazaars and cafes of the center are nearby, 10 minutes on foot. Manavgat, by the way, is a green and flourishing city, unlike the stunted dried Side. Around - pine forests, a waterfall, lakes, canyons, so it's not boring and there is something to see. The hotel rooms are decent (renovation was a couple of years ago), new multifunctional air conditioners and stable Wi-Fi throughout the territory. There is also a refrigerator in the room, it does not freeze much, but it will be enough to cool the water. There are no queues at the restaurant, just a lot, the food is delicious, the desserts are good (be careful). At the reception there is a meeting area, where juices, cookies, fruits are served.
All drinks included in the price are local, it is quite possible to drink, I did not notice negative emotions and health problems after them, rather, on the contrary. Life hack - Turkish fragrant fire tea, tea leaves for it - in metal teapots, with constant heating, I always revel in it in Turkey. By the pool almost every day on the grill - meat (bararina, chicken and beef), also fish, with bprah and restaurant 'clean water in cool plastic packages of 200 g, it's convenient, they take it without any restrictions. Right on the territory of the hotel, a Turkish woman in a hijab, by order, will fry kuzlim (stuffed cakes) on the tandoor, from the heat, from the heat. The hotel has three bars, one of them is on the beach (flat cakes are also fried there)). From the hotel to the beach, the distance is about 1 km, the road through the center, which is full of shops, shopping malls, restaurants and cafes (if you haven’t eaten)). There is a free shuttle from the hotel to the beach and back, every hour from 9 to 17. It runs exactly.
True, there is not enough space for everyone in it, but it takes 4-5 minutes to go, and it’s close on foot. The driver is good, but the bus itself is so-so, old, in season the hotel needs a more spacious bus. I sometimes went to the beach on foot so as not to get fat (which is very likely with such a diet) or when I went swimming late at night. About the hotel's beach - sandy, from the shore to the sea, a smooth descent, go to the depth of miekta 3, the water is clean and warm. Sun loungers, 1.1 and an umbrella, they even help to open them, and stools to put bags. Parasailing, parachuting, shower. At 50m bar. There are no complaints about the beach. Yes, there are also such cool healthy clay pots under everyone’s stools so that they don’t throw garbage into the sand. Purely. Parasailing, parachuting, shower. At 50m bar. I return to the hotel. The staff is friendly, they respond to everything quickly. The rooms are cleaned normally, all linen and towels are changed constantly, toilet paper is updated.

Cons - ignore empty containers of soap, no cotton pads, shower caps. I asked the maids 2 times - they nod, you leave satisfied. You come - in fact, none of this was put. But these are trifles. Now about animation. In small hotels, this is always a problem, because the territory is small, and this is not a priority. But the hotel needs to develop this direction, and they started. Two talented animators came this year - a girl and a guy, students, very positive, smiling and sincere. They are trying to stir up the eternally phlegmatic Europeans, although, of course, this is difficult, since the area for the stage and the dance floor is not large. During the day, animators conduct aqua aerobics by the pool so that Germans, Turks, Poles and other internationals do not crack from eating while lying on sun loungers.
There are also evening shows with invited participants, but the shows, in general, are modest and focused more on Armchairs, tables in bars are decent, guests constantly drink something, but there are no drunk people, and everyone behaves very civilized, including Russians. )) Every evening, the animators offer guests disco tours, starting at 2.00, with a transfer and their accompaniment, it's safe. Discos are different, including some cool ones. I visited one of them, very good, I liked it, there is a level. When new guests arrive at the hotel, the animation team immediately seeks to get to know them and talk to them. This is also useful for extending language capabilities. This is probably the merit of their boss - a kind smiling guy who sincerely wants everything to be at a good level in their hotel. As a result, I recommend the hotel. If I go to Turkey again, I will consider it.
