Good afternoon! When I was looking for a hotel to go to, I searched for a long time on the Internet and read reviews about different hotels. Now I want to leave my review - maybe it can help those who are still ahead. Rested in Belinda from 25.08 to 03.09. 2011. I really liked the hotel. So let me just say that I recommend it. True, there is nothing to compare with - it was the first time in Turkey. In order: arrived at the hotel at 8 am somewhere. settled right away. at the reception he asked for a quiet room not on the first floor - the first request was fulfilled, the second did not work. offered to come tomorrow - but after a night in the room decided that the first floor suits us perfectly. THE ROOM overlooked the backyard and the enclosing wall, it was really very quiet in the room - neither music nor screaming children interfered. . True, the only negative from the hotel is connected with the room: the room itself is clean, not large but quite comfortable and more than enough to spend the night and sleep during the day. The only thing is the shower was leaking while swimming. . probably, it was possible to go to the reception, ask for it to be repaired - we did not fool our heads with this - we really only slept in the room and changed clothes. the second is the very poor soundproofing of the doors. . when someone walks on the floor - it is very well audible. everything else was excellent! cleaned the room every day. I always left a dollar on the bed - on the first day we got swans and flowers on the bed for this - then they just cleaned it very carefully. Towels changed every day, always clean. once I only noticed an already worn towel - the rest of the time everything was ok. bed linen seems to be changed too - but did not look closely. cleaned always in the morning while we were at the beach. The TERRITORY of the hotel is just great: green, many flowers, there is a small zoo, a lot of shade, always full of free sun loungers and mattresses. The pool is clean, though you can feel chlorine or something like that. no extraneous odors were noticed on the territory (I was afraid after reading one of the reviews). in one place there is some kind of sewer hatch - sometimes there was a smell of stagnant water near it - but this phenomenon is very local - it may affect one room. slides work during the day. The staff is always very friendly and attentive, it has never been noticed that at least someone was rude. the restaurant is very fast service, quickly remove dirty dishes from the tables. there were no problems with spoons, forks, plates either - everything is always available. FOOD: excellent. yes - the meat gourmet will be disappointed, but there was always enough meat anyway. regularly chicken or turkey, almost always beef (though they call it bull meat), in the evenings they often grill meat (although I didn’t like it), since they made grilled chicken, sausages and sausages are quite decent all the time, the fish is always in some kind of the options, the garnish is always pasta, rice, potatoes, french fries, a huge selection of salads and vegetables, awesome sweets, tea. coffee, drinks. . you can always find something to eat - breakfast, second breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, night soup - it's unrealistic to be hungry. though the only thing I expected was that there would be more fruit - in fact, all the time there were watermelons, melons, grapes, peaches, apples, pears. In the evening in the BAR you can always find something to drink. local alcohol, of course, is not great, but you can drink their brandy with cola. although it's best to take it with you. by the way - all the locals are very interested in our vodka. so you can take a bottle with you and, with a well-groomed tongue, it is advantageous to exchange it for something with them. BEACH: excellent. excellent sand, smooth entry into the water (even too long shallow for me), the beach is CLEAN, it is regularly cleaned. finding sun loungers is not a problem (and when we arrived the hotel was full). to go to the beach - 10 minutes for a pregnant turtle, I walked with a girl in 2 minutes. There are indeed construction sites along the edges of the road - but they did not work when we were there. along the coast stretches an alley along which you can walk along the entire coast. you can even dine at the beach bar. HOLIDAYERS: when we were dominated by Germans - somewhere around 40-50%, Russians and Ukrainians - somewhere around 20%, the rest - Poles, Czechs, Italians, Austrians. there were few Turks, but they suddenly appeared after the end of Ramadan - then they also became about 20% of the hotel's population. ANIMATION: mostly in German, but also in other languages ​ ​ they tell what is being said. Children are entertained there in full, there are also shows for adults in the evening, but somehow I didn’t really like them. pretty simple, although sometimes you can laugh. So in general - I am very pleased with the hotel and my vacation, if I go to Side again, I will either take a full-fledged five - and if it’s simpler, then Belinda is just a great option! I hope this review helps you : )
