Rest, in general, was quite a success, but the merit of the Belinda Club in this is very small.
Now about everything in order.
After reading the positive reviews and listening to the assurances of the agent that the hotel is very good, it turned out to be very
surprised.
Let's start with what we liked:
- the sea! Very clean, transparent and warm (until the first days of October it was just fresh milk, then already in
due to the breeze, it’s a bit cool to go out of the sea, and the morning and evening are already cool, so we swam in the middle
days). Sandy beach, good entry into the sea. Right on the beach, they fenced off the egg-laying place with a small fence
turtles caretta-caretta - so touched : -)
- a lot of vegetables, herbs (dill, parsley, mint, arugula - in kilograms), fruits (peaches, watermelon, pears,
apples, plums, grapes, oranges) almost constantly, everything is fresh and tasty;
- the woman who makes the tortillas is sooo charming and the tortillas are delicious. Stuffing a little each time
different - for example, potatoes with cilantro, or with meat, or with cheese, or mint, and also sweet with sugar. With
gladly left her a tip. In the same place, next to her tent, you can drink ayran (from 12 to 16) -
cold, delicious, slightly salty - in Kyiv it will be greatly missed.
- delicious cheeses, especially with herbs and unsalted cheese - at least they feel natural,
Ice cream every night is delicious.
- good sweets, especially baklava and jam.
- room cleaning is not bad, swans were seen a couple of times : -)
- animation - very good, although we are not fans of it: we went to evening shows with pleasure, played
bochu.
- quite decent quality alcohol - i. e. whiskey even looks like whiskey, wine is quite drinkable (white only
a couple of times it looked like vinegar, but more often it was pretty good, as well as red).
And now for the negative:
- numbers! ! This is perhaps the biggest disappointment. Tiny standard (10 meters, no more, + bath), in
that fit: a double bed 1.4m wide! ! ! (Damn, okay, we're not full, and that's uncomfortable), 2
bedside tables, wardrobe, dressing table, second single bed (why is it in a cramped double room -
mystery. And this is true for all standards. For those who are traveling in three - believe me, turn around in this
space even together is difficult). on this so-called double bed instead of one sheet
two narrow covers. to hide - for those who are used to sleeping snuggled up to their soul mate, the quest is like
to fit together under one such bedspread or to wrap up in both so that they do not disperse becomes
nightly. Furniture made of cheap chipboard, uncomfortable and ugly. Shower - a separate conversation. cramped shower cubicle
from which it constantly flows to the floor, because the doors from below do not reach the bottom by a few cm - i. e.
constant untidy flood; the tap did not close completely - at night this rhythmic dripping is sooo heard.
You can turn on the shower only by bending down - the switch is at the level of the hips, it is very "nice" to bounce all the time
from the shower jet on the back or crown (cold, hot - you still need to adjust, but it is already on you
flows). Plumbing is frankly miserable and gouging.
- our friends arrived at this hotel 5 days earlier and found it raining - they told us. that the roof in the dining room
flowed so that it dripped right into the dishes; their number was also flooded (he lived on the third floor, we lived on the second).
- beach. I don’t know who wrote about sunbeds there, which are full - this is not true. They were only satisfied
after October 2, before that you had to get up early in the morning in order to have time to borrow. Very disliked
common awnings and closely set sunbeds - damn it, well, it’s reluctant to lie sandwiched like herrings, this every day
enough on the way to work.
to the whole beach - attention - one cabin in the men's and one - in the women's toilet =
standing queue. In neighboring hotels, by the way, this was all right.
- it is not possible to borrow beach towels: you can only borrow once at the spa in exchange for a deposit of 10
dollars (returned upon departure), exchange for fresh ones only for money.
- safe for a fee. We didn’t take anything from the room, thank God, nothing was missing, although, of course, we didn’t keep mobile wallets in plain sight.
- the absence of any bar to sit with a glass of wine in the evening - just tables under a canopy in front
stage.
- old plastic chairs-tables in the dining room (you can’t call it otherwise) and under a canopy a la bar, by golly, well
it looks wretched, Crimea-scoop-boarding house and nothing more.
- the food in general is not very diverse: from meat every day only turkey or chicken (3 days to eat at lunch and
chicken dinner - such a pleasure), grilled for 10 days only once, beef every 2-3 days
(I do not consider soy cutlets and soy sausage for meat). Of the side dishes - only french fries, vermicelli and rice
(without seasoning). From fish, only fried herring - I advise you to take it only if you have no plans for
an evening to spend picking out hundreds of tiny bones, even from fillets. End up for the side dish
began to take just a salad and greens - still healthier.
- stupid layout of the territory - you can only get to the buildings by going through the main dining room: here
imagine a picture that someone is already sitting and eating, and someone is just walking past from the pool or from the beach
in the same swimming trunks.
Bottom line: you can still relax, but you can do it only by making quite a lot of effort yourself: we have more
part of the time there was a company of another couple and a hookah that brightened up the evenings, but with all my might not notice
cons are also efforts. That is, it doesn’t pull on a relaxing vacation. We are no longer at Club Belinda
we will arrive.
A few tips: upon arrival, make sure you wear a Club Belinda Beach bracelet, not a white one
- this is a bracelet of a sister hotel, our friends were almost taken to it by minibus drivers.
ask for a room Not on the first floor and preferably starting from building D and further (i. e. 400+), everything that is closer -
go out to the dining room. On the last day, go to an a la carte restaurant, it's nice there.
PS. Sorry for the many letters : -)
