We returned on September 17.2009. Rested with two couples 31-35 years old. So:
Settlement, eviction. As expected, the check-in was after 14-00. The rooms have been cleaned, the minibar is empty. Because We arrived at the hotel at 8-00, then put on bracelets, handed over things to the storage room, changed clothes and went for a swim. The influx of people that day was just crazy, because $ 50 for a room did not save. Only Germans were settled for money. There was also information that about 100 numbers were missing, but..... these are rumors, I don’t know if it’s true or not. We were given non-view rooms, which did not particularly bother us. A joke - a deposit for towels of 50 dollars or euros. They are returned upon check out. ATTENTION!!!!!!!!!! ! Keep the pink receipt!!!!! ! Without it, the money will not be returned. Card for the number in a single copy.
Rooms. As in the photo. Everything is in the vineyard, pictures of the gods, stucco. New furniture, plasma TV. The mattresses are just lovely, you really relax on them, the bed linen is of class quality. True, there were spots on it, and a pillowcase with a hole “slipped through” from friends. The bathroom has traces of streaks on the bathroom, rust in some places. Toilet with bidet, 2 rolls of toilet paper every day. When the midges were poisoned, they put a warning note on the bed, saying that it is not harmful to humans. They didn’t change our towels for several days and we wanted to go and swear, but in the drawer of the bedside table I found an informal sheet that read something like this: “Welcome guests, due to the large amount of laundry, we ask you to throw them at the door if you want to change towels, towels on hooks are perceived as a sign "I'll use it again". We took…. They took their own iron, because. they are expensive. There is a hair dryer. Minibar replenished regularly: water, juice, mineral water. True, a boy with some water stupidly broke into the room, only the “Do Not Disturb” sign saved him, but then they did not receive water. Choose)))

Hotel. Beautiful. Lots of places to take pictures. All in Greek style. True, I thought it would be newer. Cafes go one to one, there is billiards, backgammon, darts. Hookah bar is cool. The pool is superb, with fountains, there is a pool - a jacuzzi, an indoor pool. It is especially beautiful in the evening when the backlight is turned on and the water changes color all the time. Delight! Slides are lovely, open from 10-00 to 12-00, from 14-00 to 17-00. You can’t swim in the pools at night, they clean the water.
Beach. On foot they spotted - 4 minutes, by "taxi" - 1 minute. The beach is clean when they don't crap. So to write that dirty sand is redneck. Don't worry - it will be clean. There are enough beds for everyone. The entry into the sea is good, the sand is gentle. From entertainment - banana, parachute, motorcycles, volleyball. There is a cafe on the beach, from 14-00 to 16-00 they give hamburgers and potatoes. From 10-00 beer and shmurdyachki are poured. True, during the day the sand is so hot, you can’t step on it, that already at 12-00 people are pouring to the pool. It's easier to breathe there.
Food. M'yaso we saw once. Lamb. There was a kilometer-long queue for the chicken. But if you do not take this into account, then you will not stay hungry. Keep in mind that there are more than a thousand people in the hotel, and you can’t push them around the restaurant, especially when the crowd is rushing for chicken, watermelon or ice cream. There are a lot of vegetables, three kinds of fish, salads, muesli. From fruits watermelon, melon, peaches, apples, pears, plums, grapes, nectarine. Sweets are not many, but enough. And in general, judging by the plates of our fellow citizens, they were not hungry, they immediately piled pasta, rice, and potatoes on themselves, in the end everything remained. Shame. After this invasion of locusts, maybe someone did not have enough food... 2 long queues lined up for ice cream.
The drinks. Beer 2 degrees. Baileys cocktails, Malibu, whiskey…… Cool. Pour as much as you want and everywhere. Coffee machines are on every corner.

Contingent. When we arrived, there were a lot of Germans who did not interfere with each other at all..... It was good until a lot of Russians arrived. Dear Russians! Do not be offended, I write about what I saw. After the arrival of a crowd of Russians, scattered glasses and tubes in the water appeared near the pool. We were forbidden to take fruit out of the restaurant. Before you lie on a sun lounger, hamster a peach, enjoy life....And then: security at the door of the restaurant with baskets takes away fruit. The question is, zachep was shitting? The climax: along the sun loungers there are pots that serve as urns. So, let's go and see the scene: a Maaaskvich mother is bazaar with someone on the phone, and her son, 8-9 years old, excuse me, shits in this pot. And it's a meter from the entrance to the toilet. The manager runs up to them, asking them to stop, and his mother obscenities. It was embarrassing and disgusting.
Animation and entertainment. I have already written about beach sports. Competitions, water polo games are held near the pool. Every day competitions in backgammon, darts, rifle shooting. Water aerobics in the morning, stepaerobics in the afternoon. There is also table tennis, volleyball, chess, billiards. Near the children's pool, the faces of the little ones were painted, it was very cool. At 21-30 children's disco begins. After it, the awarding of diplomas to the winners of daytime competitions and competitions. Then animation for adults. After that, watching a movie on the screen (like a summer cinema), although it was shown only 3 times in front of us. From 24-00 to 2-00 disco in the hotel. Normal, you can have fun. The gym has everything. And everything is fairly new. Good hammam, steam sauna, bath.
Tours. We went on a sightseeing tour of Side. Ruins, ruins, a leather shop, a jewelry store…… There is nothing to see, but since it cost $15, we simply dissipated. Then, after a couple of days, we got into a minibus ($2.5 per person) and went to New Side ourselves. We wandered around, bought beer not for 3 dollars a bottle, but for 2 lira, took a walk. Excursion to Israel costs 480 dollars per person. They wanted to rent a car, so the price increased by $ 15 per day. The hotel also rents mopeds and bicycles.
Additionally:
Across the road from the hotel is a disco, they say cool. If you go out and go 10-15 minutes to the right, you will get to the market. Turkish towels from 8 to 25 dollars. Bags are really 70 dollars and more (this is already a bargain). Smoking is not allowed in the premises! Fine 68 lira. Even at the disco. Well, everything seems to be. Write, I will answer everyone. The hotel is not very quiet, although there were a lot of children.
