For the first time in the history of my reviews, I have to start with the shortcomings in order to add at least something good at the end. So,
Minuses:
1. Public beach (not private on public territory, namely public in the domestic sense, that is, common to everyone, VERY (! ) Dirty and unkempt.
2. A pack of stray (! ) dogs that constantly lives on the beach and turns a morning trip to the sea and swimming in it into a second-rate horror movie.
3. The beach is so small that it is constantly packed to capacity (at least at the end of June).
4. Between the hotel and the public beach - a public street (you can’t call it a promenade), along which crowds of vacationers from other hotels continuously roam.
5. Periodic daily blackouts in the hotel, in connection with which, for some reason, the water in the rooms is also turned off.

6. The food is VERY (! ) tasteless and monotonous: total and constant chicken in different forms, lamb was twice, beef more often, but tough as a sole. Red sausages not eaten for breakfast are crumbled into "meat" stew for lunch, and for dinner - into pizza. In the street after dinner, tasteless donuts are fried; when no one wants to eat them, they transfer the donuts to a nearby hotel.
7. VERY (! ) small territory. The hotel is already in June (! ) full, places on the beach and near the pool need to be taken very early. Almost everything is packed with vacationers: the sea, the beach, the pool, bars - in general, the entire territory.
8. Seventy-year-old vacationers can come to dinner in shorts, and twenty-year-olds only in long trousers - apparently so as not to seduce the wives of seventy-year-old vacationers. Strange attitude towards people, to be honest.
9. VERY (! ) a lot of incredibly biting mosquitoes, which is not quite common in Turkey.
10. Savings (or rather, wild GREED) in everything: food, air conditioning (disabled in general places of recreation), service.
11. Killer price/quality ratio even for Turkey. However, I do not exclude the possibility that this is not the fault of the hotel, but the indefatigable greed of Russian-Ukrainian travel agencies. So, a similar tour for two, but from Sweden (! ) for our neighbors turned out to be 25% cheaper. Apparently, in Sweden, either the purchasing power of the population or the greed of tour operators is 25% lower.
12. In the rooms between the bedroom and the bathroom / toilet there is not a wall, but a transparent partition. Perhaps there is some kind of perverted romance in this, but in reality it is very uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
Pros:
1. Good service for the disabled.
2. The lack of good meat dishes is compensated by an abundance of good vegetable dishes.
3. Ice cream all day and everywhere.
4. Spacious rooms.
My conclusions and sincere recommendations:
1. The hotel is clearly not a five-star hotel, it does not meet modern requirements for a good seaside holiday at all.
2. Only very elderly couples who are indifferent to delicious food, clean beaches and swimming in the sea may like it.
3. It may also appeal to elderly people with disabilities, but only to vegetarians.

4. If you still decide, book rooms only "sea front" (direct sea view) or "sea view" (almost direct), - at least a good view from the balcony will please.
5. Do not under any circumstances participate in persistent polls about the opinion of vacationers about the hotel, at least do not give out your email address. Apparently, it is from these addresses that admiring reviews about the hotel are then sent to the famous, most visited travel sites. At least, I, a traveler with great experience and a fairly high degree of tolerance (see my reviews of other hotels) - could not find other reasonable explanations of how high ratings of this hotel and rave reviews about it could appear on sites I respect. By the way, after such surveys, the hotel does not get any better: the chicken that is boring to everyone is not replaced by other types of meat, the air conditioning is not turned on, the beach is not cleaned, and dogs with mosquitoes do not disappear anywhere.
6. (Related not to the hotel, but to the tour operator PEGAS, Kyiv). As a result of moving the flight to Turkey 8 hours ahead and departure from Turkey 7 hours ago, my family lost 15 (! ) Hours of rest and got a sleepless night in return - without any change in the price of the tour. We learned about each of these transfers the day before. We did not receive any explanation or compensation from our tour operator. As a result, the tour operator "PEGAS" (Kyiv) will never be our tour operator again, we will strongly recommend to all our friends, acquaintances and colleagues who love quality service to refrain from its services and bypass it on the tenth road.
7. Do not be disappointed in Turkey, as I was not disappointed in it - even after staying in this hotel and receiving services from this tour operator. Turkey is a wonderful, hospitable country with a large number of excellent and very good hotels for every taste. And there are such unpleasant exceptions to the rule everywhere. HAVE A NICE HOLIDAY!
