It was an incredibly wonderful 7 days! Melas HoliDay Village - we fell in love with you!
Date of rest: 02.06. -09.06 2019
Composition: Me, woman, son 4 years.
I'll start with the most exciting questions:
1. STONES IN THE SEA.
They really are. There are enough of them. BUT! They did not cause us any inconvenience. First: the hotel is struggling with this problem and soaps the bottom. Secondly, there is a place where there are no stones. LIFEHACK: swim at the Melas Resort (officially allowed) opposite the main entrance to the Melas Resort. Go from Melas HoliDay Village, pass the entrance in front of the tower, where the lifeguard sits and go to the next entrance to the beach.
2. Wi-Fi.
There were no problems. Perfectly pulled in the room, restaurant. It was also possible to catch at the reception and small amphitheater. If you need the Internet always and everywhere, you should buy megabytes from your operator or Turkish SIM card.
And now in more detail:
3. NUMBER.
Settled quickly. However, we arrived at the hotel around 14:00. They took me to the room in an electric car, helped with suitcases.
We were given a better number in the category than stated. The room is spacious. Everything worked fine. Large bed where the three of us slept comfortably. And two sofas that adults can sleep on.
In the room: hair dryer, kettle, air conditioning. Two electronic keys are issued.
Room above the main restaurant, balcony overlooking the Melas Resort. So not on the sea, not on the pool, BUT the room was always in the cozy shade and you could always enjoy going out on the balcony, even for lunch. Just as our child does not tolerate air conditioning, it was very good for us. () The air conditioner worked properly - checked)))
Features a free safe, towels and beach towels. Beach towels can be changed once for free, then exchange - 1 Euro per towel.
Mini-bar - at check-in there were: two beers 0.33, Cola 1 liter, Fanta 1 liter. , still water 2 by 1.5 liters. , carbonated water 2 by 0.33. One replenishment with a similar set is free. Also present in the room kettle, tea, coffee, sugar, poppy coffee.
Cleaning - daily. Everything is clear and high quality. Replenish shampoos, gel, paper.
4. TERRITORY.
Large, green area. Lots of trees and flowers. Everything is well-groomed. Gardeners work perfectly. There is a place to walk. Lots of places to hide from the sun. Small lizards run on the territory (do not be afraid, they are harmless). By the way, you can see crabs on the rocks in the sea. LIFEHACK - take buns, they love them.
5. SEA, BEACH.
The Mediterranean is as beautiful as ever. During our vacation in the first days there were waves, and then the sea was calm. It should be noted that the sea at this time in the morning is not "steamed milk". You had to get used to the water. Still, the temperature dropped to 16-17 degrees at night. But this does not mean that the children did not bathe. Bathed. All.
The sea warmed up in the afternoon. And the last three days have been just incredibly warm. I think that in mid-June the sea will always be well warmed.
We consciously went at this time, because we do not like the heat.
Temperatures above 30-31 did not rise and were easily tolerated. And at night I slept comfortably without air conditioning. Even at 15:00-16:00 it was possible to go to the sea or the pool.
The beach is wide, big. There are always enough sunbeds for everyone. Entrance to the sea is gradual. I have already written about stones above.
On the beach refrigerators with water and kefir.
6. NUTRITION.
All the food in the hotel is delicious. There is no dish that stands for quantity or beauty. Breakfast is standard. But that means there is nothing to eat. That's enough.
Lunch and dinner - steaks, chicken, veal, lamb, fish, red fish, fish baked in bread, shrimp, mussels, sushi… Grilled dishes. On the children's table: burgers, fries, pizza, nuggets.
Lots of vegetables. Of fruits: apples, oranges, kiwis, bananas, peaches, apricots, watermelon, melon, several times strawberries. There was no queue. There was always enough and everything was replenished on time.
Sweets! Ummm. Delicacy. A great selection of cakes, pastries, baklava.
I have a "specific stomach".
I always take medication for insurance. So - the stomach never bothered. For me, it is a sign of quality.
You do not need to stand in line for drinks in the main restaurant. They are brought by waiters and are always done quickly.
The chef is constantly in the restaurant, he controls everything. After dinner, all tables, hoods, etc. are thoroughly washed.
I can't say anything about food for young children. I will only write that there is always hot milk, there is a microwave. The hotel has a very large number of young children, no complaints from their parents.
Ice cream - from 12:00 to 17:00 in the pool bar, beach bar, water park bar. Types: ice cream, mango, lemon, strawberry, chocolate.
Gezleme (Turkish pancakes. Choice: meat, vegetables, cheese. Or without anything - so loves our son))) - from 12:00 to 16:00 at the beach bar.
7. BEVERAGES.
This hotel showed us that alcohol in Turkey can be at a decent level.
BEER - ephesus. Norm.
Of course, if you are a fan of craft beer, then… But beer is the norm.
WINE - red, pink, white. Also norms. We liked white the most.
Also in the range of whiskey, cognac, brandy, vodka, tequila. Tried in pure form only tequila - good! ) Very kind! The national team's victory over the Serbs celebrated it well! )
COCKTAILS - a fairly wide map. Our top: it's a margarita, sex on the beach and baileys. There is also a selection of non-alcoholic cocktails.
JUICE - in the machine all day No yuppie. Packaged. Apple, Cherry, Pineapple, Orange. Also cola, fanta, sprite, tonic. Fresh fruit for breakfast - 1.5 Euro.
COFFEE - in vending machines: espresso, americano, latte, moccasin, hot chocolate. Good quality. Be sure to try the Turkish coffee, which is brewed in Turkish - I really liked it.
8. RESTAURANTS, BARS.
The hotel has a main restaurant, beach bar, water park bar, pool bar, lobby. Snacks and snacks are always offered throughout the day.
In the bar near the water park only beer, water, coffee.
The lobby is a very quiet and atmospheric place in the evening. Open until 01:00. A great place to taste a cocktail before bed and sit in a great atmosphere.
A la carte restaurants - 4 pieces. One free visit. We chose a fish restaurant. I will not say that we had a gastronomic orgasm, but it was delicious, hearty and atmospheric by the sea.
9. ANIMATION, SHOWS, ENTERTAINMENT.
Well done to the whole team, and this (I counted) 15 animators from different countries.
If you are for active recreation, then during the day the animators organize for you: football, volleyball, bocce, darts, table tennis, pneumatic shooting, aerobics, aqua aerobics,
Every day there are interesting competitions by the main pool.
At dinner in the main amphitheater - a mini disco for children, after - a show program. During our vacation: acrobatic circus, Brazilian carnival, magic show, dance group - all professional groups.
I liked the circus and the Brazilian show the most! The animators also showed the play "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs". After the show - disco or "live music" by the stage by the pool. There was also a karaoke night…
The end is at 23:00, so you do not need to worry about the noise at night.
10. FOR CHILDREN.
AQUAPARK. Open - from 10:00 to 12:00, - 14:00 to 16:00.4 slides. It was enough for me and my son.
SWIMMING POOLS. There are two 30 cm pools near the main pool. Also 1 pool 40 cm and 1 pool 1 m near the water park. The pools are not heated, so it was cool in the morning.
MINI CLUB. From 4 to 8 years. Open from 10:00 to 12:00 and from 14:00 to 16:00. There is an outdoor area, there is an enclosed space. It is possible to fill the child. Write in the magazine information about yourself, where you will rest at this time and have some time for yourself)) Our little one has always been happy to go to a mini club. He even demanded that we take him there! )
There is a mini club from 8 to 12 years old, but I can't write anything about it.
One day, 8 large trampolines were inflated on the lawn. The joy of children knew no bounds.
There are enough sunbeds by the pools. There is always a free place.
11. EXCURSIONS.
I can't write anything because I didn't go anywhere. I will only write about the ancient city of Side: the amphitheater, the ruins of the city, the temple of Apollo. You can get there in 30 minutes on foot - if you walk along the promenade. If you look at the sea - go left. We liked it. I advise you to go. You can go (we went back) - dolmus 2.5 lira per person. Taxis, they say, $ 10.
12. CONTINGENT, ATMOSPHERE.
70% of the hotel is German. In second place - the Turks. There are not many Russians and Ukrainians. Many couples with children.
The hotel has a wonderful atmosphere. People greet each other, smile at each other, exchange information about the holiday. The hotel staff is friendly, positive. All this creates a very pleasant background for a quality holiday.
CONCLUSION: There is a rule in our family - we go to a different place every time!
But it is in Melas HoliDay Village that you definitely want to return. Thank you again for a wonderful holiday.
Thank you City Travel for choosing a hotel and organizing this holiday!
P. S. There will be questions - write, I will be happy to answer! Have a nice summer everyone! ))
