If you need a relaxing holiday without animation, but in clean rooms that are cleaned daily and with polite staff, then the hotel will suit you. The food is worthy of a four: the dishes are varied and tasty. But you can find something not from seasoning in the lettuce mountain. However, five-stars also sin with this. Aesthetes will still be confused by plastic or paper glasses for drinks.
Internet is paid: five dollars for three days. If the check-in is not for a week, but for a longer period, then you should think about a Turkish SIM card, which costs almost $ 20: the connection will always be of good quality.
The beach is a kilometer (! ) From the hotel, if you follow the route that runs not through a hole in the fence, but along the main streets of Side. But this is only the first 700 meters. Then you have to walk along the dirt road and swallow the dust raised by passing vehicles. The fearless "cut" the path through the dump or through the wasteland, but then they still go under the scorching sun along the same dirt road. Someone decides to "tie" their vacation to the schedule of free buses, and will probably be happy. In October, you can shake the "inclusive" on foot: it's not as hot as in July or August. But disappointment is still inevitable: boors work on the beach, expelling you from the right side of the territory, marked with identical white sun loungers and blue mattresses and the letters SEASIDE, to the right, exactly the same, without explanation, shouting "come on" or "4 lira" . And they won’t let you enjoy the sunset at the sea either, even if you pick up your towels and move to the legal left side of your hotel: they will kick you out with the same Russian words and Turkish curses at 17.31, and even kick the sun lounger with your foot if you persist, as this was done on one of the days of rest by a certain "unkind" Turkish fellow waiter, showing how all the tourists got it together, and especially those who do not buy drinks on the beach and do not tip. Colleagues are usually supportive.

Conclusion: I would never return to the hotel because of the beach workers and its remoteness from the sea, and I would NOT recommend it to any of my friends and acquaintances.
