Good time of the day! I will warmly write my impressions about this hotel. Visited from June 7th to 15th for 8 full days. Arrived, met the transfer without any problems, go to the hotel Antali - Side 50 km. At the entrance to the hotel, the impression deteriorated a little, because the guide on the road repeatedly reminded the driver about tips, but when they started to unload the luggage, the driver not only didn’t help with the suitcase, he even had to open the tailgate . . Let’s go! With some difficulty they dragged their own luggage to the reception.
Settlement! It passed literally quickly, with all the filling out of the questionnaires in about an hour. There were two Russian-speaking women at the reception, a kind of disgruntled and shabby sharks. Those who tried to come up with more questions showed discontent.
Number from 10 points to 6 why? The first is very small, when buying it was agreed on 30 square meters, but they settled on 12 along with a bathroom. Hooray! No smell, which is important. At the entrance to the room, there was a burnt out light bulb in the corridor, they asked to replace it, but alas, there was no reaction, despite the fact that they approached the reception several times. The room is dark, although it is white. The air conditioner worked, the refrigerator was replenished every day (cola, fanta, water, sprite), no complaints. The view - the balcony was satisfying, the veranda, where it was impossible to go out in shorts, as all the tourists sat and stared from below. Pleased with only one thing, that at least not on the amphitheater.

The territory is very small, although there are many non-empty places walking around where it was possible to arrange leisure for tourists.
Fables! Divided into three zones: Frog, where there are two children's plastic slides and a rusty mushroom that does not work. The second zone, such as for slides. The slide worked twice a day and was big. Nooooo, it's impossible to swim - there is no place, it seems that all Side was swimming.
I was infuriated by the moment with the sunbeds, the tourists occupied the sunbeds from 5 in the morning, threw their clothes and went to the sea, and in the evening they came to the pool. There was always not enough space to leave the body, they just sat on chairs nearby. Attention!!!!!! ! for 8 days we never saw that the pool was being cleaned, not a single attendant with a net. In the children's pool, the water is just gray and muddy. Yet! One day I had to catch a submarine with plastic cups (shit). Since I ran around the hotel for an hour looking for at least one person who should keep the pool clean, but alas!!! ! Because some parents believe that it is convenient for a child to swim in a diaper.
Food! separate topic. The first two days upon arrival, everything is even delicious, a great variety. The breakfasts are very weak, pancakes are rubber boots, buns that were yesterday instead of bread, suddenly became steamed in the morning))). Sausage with super Turkish cardboard. The eternal queue for an omelet. Pleased only with delicious cheese, coffee from the machine and greens.
Lunch and dinner are normal, it was even possible to choose something, almost a day later there was fish, grilled chicken and once we got on mussels. Sweets - heaps, I don’t want to eat, but everything is under one song, the taste is the same and the color is different. Drinks - all powdered, especially juices from the machine, but we drank cola. Fruits - a very small selection, 10 bowls of apples of various sizes, an overripe watermelon, today it is in the decoration and tomorrow it is on a tray, and once there were even wild green apricots.

The beach is the only thing that pleased one hundred percent, clean and well maintained. On foot from the hotel for 15 minutes along the boar path, but every 5 minutes the UAZ of my childhood cruised, for 10 seats, but I walked without problems. No complaints.
Restaurant on the beach is excellent, eat, drink, clean toilet. It's not unimportant! Under the tent in the carpets there is an aunt who bakes cakes, quite tasty. Sometimes it seemed to me that the food on the beach in the restaurant was better than in the hotel itself. There were enough sun loungers for everyone, there is a wooden path to the sea along the beach and it is very convenient, because the sand is very hot, it is difficult to walk barefoot, especially for children. Animation! None during the day. But in the evening everything changes, there is a children's disco for 30 minutes. Children are lined up on the stage, they show the movement, everyone repeats. Then the adult performance begins. Every day is different. Basically interesting.
WI-FI is a difficult question, you can connect, but go in - no.
Another important thing is the attitude of the staff! Complete disregard and indifference to the requests of tourists, even for some little things, and this is unpleasant. The bartenders are the directors of the hotel, they owe it to everyone. First they serve their locals, then maybe you) . With sour mines on the face, which everyone owes. When pouring beer or a cocktail, hands are washed. Plastic glasses are used, which simply do not wash, and they rinsed them cleanly under the tap, the genetic data of the “front” can be determined from the mouth prints
Towels! No problem, they were constantly and could be taken at any time, there was enough for everyone. The only thing you had to take with you to the beach.
Cleaning in the room, whether it is not there or not at all, I saw a wheelbarrow with a mop and a muscle miter at the door a couple of times.

A lot of local holidaymakers are Turks 60%, Arabs, Iranians, Slavs maybe 15%. It is very annoying and disturbing when dressed women swim in the pool and you are suddenly in a bathing suit))). Sometimes you get the impression that you are in a Turkish bazaar and not in a pool, there is such a buzz, endless conversations. If you just want to lie down and relax, you won't succeed.
If you don’t find fault with the renovation of the hotel, with wheelbarrows with dirty dishes that are carried between tables during a meal and can be placed near your table for half an hour and forgotten. The pool, which is not visible when they are cleaning))), then the hotel can be given a solid 4!
I take into account the price for which we arrived there, then you can still put up with it (1200 dollars). But no more.
On the plus side: beach, animation, food.
From the minuses: the territory, the killed playground, the pool, the contingent and the noise !!!!!!!!
I hope my review helped you, the choice is yours!
