The hotel is imprisoned for the Germans, which indicates a high level of service and animation in the German manner, which we really liked.
The territory is very small, beautiful, comfortable. Everything in the hotel is new and of good quality.
Everything is fine with food (not Thailand, there are no shrimp and lobsters).
The staff is well-trained, friendly, speaks German, English, everyone really wants to learn Russian (there is one waiter in Russian).
The sea is good for both children and adults, at first shallow, then deep. The beach is clean and very comfortable for walking. The sand is chic in structure, but the color of mud (not Thailand). The water is cold because of the flowing river.
Detail:

The hotel is imprisoned for the Germans, which indicates a high level of service and animation in the German manner, which we really liked. The Germans do not really like that Russians began to appear in the hotel, but if they see that you are from a civilized society, they begin to communicate as with their own. It is very comfortable to be among them, which cannot be said about comrades from the post-Soviet space from neighboring hotels. In this hotel, Russians are quiet, there are many of them, but they huddle in the cracks - both in the restaurant and on the beach and at parties. German parties are a separate issue! I fell in love with them on ski tours. And here every evening, except for Sundays, it's just a complete break to German pop music, both old and young are dancing, it's a lot of fun. At 23:00 everything is quiet.
The territory is very small, beautiful, comfortable. Everything in the hotel is new and of good quality. There is no such delight as hotels for 10 thousand per night in Thailand, but everything is very good. The rooms are very comfortable. Half of the rooms with a side view of the sea and at the same time on the courtyard with a swimming pool. We really liked the view of the pool from these rooms both day and night. The second half of the rooms overlooking neighboring hotels, I can’t say anything about them. The rooms are stylish. The bed and pillows are super comfortable, with water, cleanliness, etc. everything is perfect.
Everything is fine with food (not Thailand, there are no shrimp and lobsters). No, this is certainly not haute cuisine, but I don’t know who can call this food bad or monotonous! This is some kind of madness! You can break away from it only after the third plate with a slide. Cheese - all kinds. Grill of all kinds. Tongue, beef, chicken, duck, turkey, fish - always in two, three, or even more forms. There are almost always shrimp, but this is so similar to shrimp, you can not count on them. But if suddenly this review is read by a connoisseur of shrimp, then I inform you that once a week there were real medium-sized, but correct shrimp. Eggplants, zucchini, peppers are always in several forms. Nuts and fruits of very good quality. Cakes - just eat your mind.
I drank red wine. We drink a lot, after the first evening with pink and white my head hurt, but nothing like that with red. The beer is ordinary, Ephesus of good quality, weak, cold, pleasant. We don’t drink strong drinks, I can’t comment on them. Cocktails are standard, acceptable quality.
Juices seem natural.

The staff is well-trained, friendly, speaks German, English, everyone really wants to learn Russian (there is one waiter in Russian). Of course, the staff speaks at a very modest level, they did not graduate from Harvard, but they will understand everything you need. But if you can’t connect two words in English, then don’t write later in the reviews that “they don’t understand a damn thing or pretend that they don’t understand. ” They all understand and want to understand you, and are always ready to help. The staff loves to be treated as equals. The Germans smile with them, flirt, wink, twitch, always stop and talk. Many even hug and kiss the waiters goodbye. And this is not familiarity, this is respect for a person of a different profession and the staff appreciates it very much. Almost none of the Russians we interacted with spoke a word of English or German, and yet no one ever complained that they were somehow not served well or that they felt some kind of discomfort.
The sea is good for both children and adults, at first shallow, then deep. The beach is clean and very comfortable for walking. The sand is chic in structure, but the color of mud (not Thailand). The water is cold because of the flowing river.
The beach of the hotel is not very big, it is strongly clamped by the beaches of neighboring hotels. There are enough sun loungers by the pool and on the beach for everyone. Of course, there is a struggle for the first lines of sunbeds, but everything is decent, no one thinks of throwing anything off other people's sunbeds. The sun beds and umbrellas are the whitest, most presentable, the mattresses are pale yellow, which is much more pleasing to the eye than blue or brown in other hotels. The coastal strip and the sea are visible to everyone, so there are a lot of foreign people there, including children, which strained only a little. Swimming only in the morning, because. By lunchtime, an unpleasant ripple appeared.
Miscellaneous. About sport. Workouts two in the morning at 10 and 11, two in the evening at 15 and 16 in an air-conditioned gym. Plus aqua at 16. Workouts are different, different levels, there is relaxation, there is a press, there is the whole body. It will not be boring. The husband died after each and asked for mercy or yoga. The gym looks good too. Volleyball, bocha and jacoco on the beach (I won’t describe, google it).

About the hotel guide Anekstur and an excursion to Istanbul. Hotel guide Anekstura - Ansar. I didn’t want to go to a meeting with the guide, they expected a boorish divorce on the tour. Nothing like that, very quickly, only the most necessary and important information, no pressure, no discomfort. Bought a trip to Istanbul. The tour is difficult (from 4 am to 12 am, an hour to the airport, an hour flight, an hour to Istanbul and back as well). We went on Sunday, there were no traffic jams. During the week, the road from the airport to Istanbul lasts much longer, up to 12 noon and immediately for lunch. After lunch, everyone is running, just to look and take pictures. We had more time, but the route was similar and such that we could not feel the atmosphere of this city. That is, I do not advise you to look at this excursion, the costs of effort, time and money are large, and the exhaust is very small. But they picked up impressions from compatriots from the post-Soviet space (collective farm, state farm and collective farm). A hundred times they refused to take excursions in a group with foreigners...
