Отель отличный! Отдых удался The hotel is great! Rest was a success

In Side for the first time, they chose because with a child (5 years old), they never regretted it. The sea is what you need - sand, shallow, warm. We arrived at the hotel at 22.00, there were practically no problems with the settlement, the only hitch - the hotel does not speak Russian at all (timid attempts), in English. hardly 90% of the guests are Germans. If not for the help of Roxana, the wife of the beach administrator, it would be difficult to explain. They gave a good room, but with a view of the hills, or rather up the hill), we immediately ran to be indignant and demand something, prepared for war, but it wasn’t there... With the help of Roxana, they explained that we needed silence and we were here but without a hint of any surcharges, they gave a room on the 4th floor with a view of the pools and a side view of the sea, they just asked to smile - it's nice pancake))
There were no more complaints about the hotel, the child watched shows and cartoons in German with pleasure, played with Deutsch Kinders and even found Russian-speaking children. And we were always in a hurry somewhere - either to the slides (they work twice a day 10-12 and 14-17), then to ice cream and donuts, and you can’t miss the evening show. The animation is very soft, they can sometimes be seen playing darts or bochu with the Germans. Of the imposition, only cocktails for 3 euros and a massage, but very delicately.
The food is excellent - fish, turkey, chicken in ten versions, vegetables, tangerines, watermelon, a bunch of desserts. Tasty and varied, there were king prawns, a lot of grill. It’s not that they weren’t hungry, they specially ran out of the hotel to unload, because being on the beach or on the territory, you constantly stumble over something tasty.

Beach 100 meters, shuttle bus with amazing driver every 5 minutes, walk also 5 minutes. There are enough sun loungers on the beach, by the pools - you can always get settled, but in the shade, in the sun you need to chase. Mattresses are paid 1 euro / day, towels too - 3.5 euros a week.
The hotel is extremely well located for independent travel, minibus (dolmush) at the exit from the hotel. Do not be afraid to use transport, Turkey (tourist) is not Africa. We enjoyed a ride in ancient Side and Manavgat.
We went with Anex, here as usual - they brought us away normally, they tried to take us on an expensive excursion). I witnessed a conversation between the guides, in which ours confessed that he hated the Slavs, especially Russians. It was not news to me. . .
