We have been resting together with a five-year-old child since July 2021. I will try to write as objectively as possible. We arrived early, around 9 o'clock. They took our suitcases from us, sent us to breakfast, they said that there is no information on the numbers yet, come after 11.00. After breakfast came up, there was still no information. She offered the girl some money. I had 8 dollars small, after 5 minutes we were in the room. We have a night arrival ball and we are very tired, and I was ready for such a situation. I think the number would have been given a share, of course, earlier than 14.00, but I would still have to wait. The room was quite decent in a 4-storey building, large, fairly new furniture, everything worked: a safe, a TV, an air conditioner, even a toilet bowl lid closer. The exit and the rooms were on a clearing, a little unusual, but even interesting. Noisy during the day due to the animation, but with a closed balcony it's ok. There are several Russian channels TNT, Russia 24 and some others. N Living in such bungalows seemed to me more advantageous, because. they are closer to the sea.
The main building is located on a mountain and you have to go uphill and up the stairs from the sea. The main building is beautiful, the rooms are not better equipped and older, it is difficult to wait for the elevator, there are a lot of people in the elevator and stuffy. But the view from the main building to the sea is very beautiful. I didn’t understand where the old building was complained about in the reviews. The hotel area is large, clean, well-groomed, there are many beautiful places for photos, but it is all built up, there is no productive area for walking, sitting on a bench. And do not forget that the territory is mountainous, we had to go to the dining room uphill with a slope of 45 degrees, I think a lot of stairs are not convenient for families with strollers. The sea is beautiful, sand, gentle sunset, the waves are small, at this time it is warm, like in a bath. But sunbeds at 8 in the morning are mostly occupied, and you can’t find free hours at 10 at all, just like the pools. In general, you can’t do without a race for sunbeds. If, of course, no one occupied them, it would be enough for everyone. This is very annoying, but you can’t change it, you have to play by these rules, get up at 7 in the morning and go to take a sunbed.
There is an asphalt promenade along the sea, which is good for walking, behind the hotel there are many shops with Turkish consumer goods. The food at the hotel is normal, I won’t say that it’s super, there are a lot of tasteless dishes, but you will find something to eat. Wine in glasses of local production is average in quality, when cold it is delicious, but the last days it was warm. The beer is pleasant, very light, more like non-alcoholic, yuppie juices, carbonated drinks, freshly squeezed tangerine 2 euros, I haven’t tried other drinks. It was very stuffy in the room where the dining room was, the air conditioners could not cope, there were a lot of people. The lines are not big. In general, the hotel has a feeling of great crowding of people. There was paid wi-fi, $15 for 10 days, unlimited, but I was content: I caught it everywhere, even watched cartoons. This one is better than the free one, which is barely caught at the reception.

Animation. The nursery is a disgrace. At the children's disco, a plump girl in unkempt clothes danced to not very catchy songs, she had never seen such a thing even in small hotels. Very poor, but the kids are dancing. There is a kids club, there are no toys, they draw T-shirts for money. There is a small playground with slides. Adult: there were performances, some nothing, belly dancing, darts, etc. standard. I don't participate in such events, it's hard to blow it off.
In my opinion a good hotel for the price. There were a lot of dissatisfied people who wanted better service and free wifi. But if you want the best you have to pay more.
And the hotel guide Zhanna from Pegasus was also very angry, who kept us in a stuffy room and forced us to listen about excursions, and if someone got up and left, she was worn out and said that something was bound to happen to these tourists, because they did not listen to her. Most people are not the first time in Turkey and such methods of work are outdated.
