The first thing that should pleasantly surprise you is that the hotel is only 30-40 minutes drive from Antalya. Moreover, the hotel is located near the town/village of Side. I will immediately explain for those who have not yet been to Turkey: a town or village there is a picturesque settlement, with clean streets and friendly residents. Better places to rest from the noisy roads of our cities are hard to find. At the same time, the hotel, as you might think, is not at all boring.

The hotel is in almost perfect condition. The staff is exceptionally polite and attentive. The rooms are perhaps the weakest point of this hotel. They are small in size, they do not show ORT everywhere, the shower in the bathroom is slightly uncomfortable. But for a great Turkish holiday, I think the hotel room is not as important as having a great beach and good weather.

I don't know if there is bad weather in Side. For 2 weeks there only once it rained at night. Yes, it's hard to call it rain.

The beach of the hotel was pleasant. It is located 300 meters from the hotel. The hotel is located on some hill, this creates some inconvenience for Ukrainians and Russians, who seem to be spoiled by the quality of our roads : ) Germans, Austrians, Dutch and other guests of Turkish land did not feel any inconvenience about this (however, like me). The beach itself is quite large and this is important. There are plenty of free places on the sunbeds. On the beach there is a hotel bar-restaurant, where you can order refreshing drinks at any time. And during lunch, just have lunch without leaving the beach.

In general, food in Tanieli fully corresponds to ****. The diet is extensive, you can try everything and not have time. For dinner, a variety of additional dishes of fish and meat are always prepared in the open part of the restaurant. Every lunch and dinner, 15 types of sweets and each time they changed. The waiters are just masters of their craft!
Nowhere in our country, even in expensive establishments, have I seen such skillful waiters. Maybe they are specifically taught on simulators in one hand to carry trays with two or three dozen plates and glasses. The only drawbacks in the food system are the poor variety of fruits (almost the same all the time) and the inability to order tea or coffee for lunch / dinner in the restaurant. I had to take it in the bar adjacent to the restaurant.

As we already understood with animations, we seem to be just lucky. At the time of our vacation in TAnieli, just a great group of animators worked. And the local Spanish sports chief was especially bright and incomparable. He turned on and amused everyone and everything. It was just a phenomenal person. He practically did all the work for the animators. He plays sketches like a born actor, runs fakir shows like he's been doing it all his life. Always joking and smiling.

The hotel staff, as I mentioned, is friendly and polite.
The maid did her job with a bang (only sometimes she forgot to change the towels).

It is worth saying that you should really like it there . . But try to drive in such a way that there are fewer Russians or Ukrainians there. They behave defiantly. They usually come in noisy groups. Everyone is dissatisfied with something. I come to Turkey to relax for good money, they are not pleased with almost everyone. But I still don’t understand their indignation: after all, they mostly hang out in bars and torment bartenders with orders of vodka + Pepsi. I was greatly amused by the fact that only guests from Ukraine, who have not yet registered at the reception, are already asking questions to the guide such as "What about drinking? ", "A large assortment of alcoholic beverages. " And to tell the truth, when the Germans began to slowly leave, and the Russians to call in . . from that moment the rest got a little worse. Still, it is also important who is resting with you.
The end.
