Here I want to clarify, there are places inside, but everyone came to breathe the fresh sea air, admire the sunsets at dinner, but alas. . And this situation with dirty dishes and lack of places continued every day, three times a day. FOOD!!! ! According to reviews, everything is so varied and tasty - well, who cares or in comparison. THE SAME thing every day, like it was fish day, and we were all surprised how fish could be ruined, everything was on time, monotonous, in sauce, chicken with feathers (turnips). Everything is without taste, or in the Turkish way. Probably the most delicious food. I was in a restaurant for 24 hours in a cave! . There was no grill, everything was in sauces, the chicken generally had some kind of aftertaste, it was always torn, on skewers, or whole, so it seems that it was then simply turned into a sauce. Anyone who cooks all the time will immediately understand this. Well, I don’t know why, maybe the cook is different, in the Sunrise dining room there was a slightly different menu, sometimes there was a grill there, and everything was more edible, we went there to eat.
the pasta is always overcooked, the fish is described as salmon, but no, apparently it’s something like that. A la carte, this is trouble! ! We were all surprised. Let's go to Italian, honestly, all the food was from the restaurant. Boiled pasta, pizza (((((. focacia, like, fish on time. You’ve never been to an Italian restaurant, I’m not even talking about Italy anymore. Elementarily good pizza, lasagna, al dente pasta! . Well, you can’t do that! ) I have never seen it. I have a different understanding A la carte. Well, we laughed eronically about the staff - no one is friendly at all, and the waiters in the cave restaurant are also shouting, indignant that they do not understand the cleaning of the rooms, a bar every day. was not replenished, they left a dollar on the bed with a note - not a note, not a dollar, all the garbage was there, the bar was empty))) I had to call.
BEACH - here the question is more for vacationers, and for Turkish ones - there are cigarette butts everywhere, and on the beach, this is generally not acceptable, but by the way, along the hotel grounds, on the way to the rooms and there are few ashtrays, my husband carried a cigarette butt to the main square. Of course, I wrote a review while still at the hotel and the girl tried to assuage the guilt, but it was all useless, we all had an impression about the service and the hotels. WHO IS USED to hotels that belong to Europeans, or the main part of European vacationers, where the dinner is themed. something definitely tasty, I definitely don’t recommend this hotel. We won’t go for sure, maybe my review will help when choosing a hotel, since to each his own, for many this is not the main thing.
A huge green area, swimming pools, a small water park, even my favorite horses (there is a stable here), children's corners.
The food is delicious! Delicious cakes, ice cream, fruits, fresh juices, even seafood! Yesterday I ate strawberries, today sauteed seafood and brownies with figs and strawberries! My most favorite everything!
And what a beautiful sea here! Huge waves, sand and pebble beach. Today we met the dawn there, because we woke up early, due to the change of time zones, we were not yet used to Turkish time.
We live in a bungalow type room, what a pretty little villas these are! Initially, when choosing a hotel, I was looking for a bungalow, I don’t like large buildings...
There are evening programs, but we, like true old people with a child, go to bed at 21:00.
My verdict as a travel agent: a wonderful place where you want to return again and again!
If someone is interested in this hotel, then write to me, I will answer your questions with great pleasure!
On the plus side, delicious food. The beds are comfortable. Large territory. Clean sea. Good entertainment at the hotel. The staff is quite responsive.
- nutrition
Monotonous, boring, I would say economical menu! There was no mention of seafood. Unfortunately 4 out of 7 "suffered" from food. Alcohol in the bars was constantly running out, and a lot of things were not there at all throughout the trip!
Mini bar in the room without claims - replenished every day! They also served different snacks. Another very important point - around the clock you could eat!
- accommodation
We had a bungalow! The room itself is average, but the bathroom is just gloom! Towels were never enough, shampoos and gels were in containers and not in jars and looked like dishwashing detergent!
- service
Service disappointing! Bartenders with gloomy, always dissatisfied faces, very arrogant, constantly asked for money! Waiters - well done, nimble, not capricious! Roomserviss, too, everything is in order.
- territory
Very large, the first 2 days, we were looking for houses for a long time, because. pointers so-so! Too much greenery, straight wilds, because of which a lot of insects (flying and crawling) bit a lot and often : ) The beach is normal, there is a tower to dive. The pools are clean, large, there is a mini-retro water park! But everything is in need of renovation! 80th year construction!
Conclusion: we have been to Turkey 5 times, we always take Ultra all inclusive, and unfortunately this hotel was the most unfortunate!! !
We stayed in one of the many cottages located on the hotel grounds. Each cottage is a two-storey house with 5-6 rooms, from different sides. We had the simplest, on the 1st floor. Repair, most likely, was a long time ago, offhand about 5-6 years ago (it is necessary to check). But in general, the furniture and interior is quite acceptable. Mini-bar replenished daily with juices, fizzy. drinks and beer, based on the number of people.
Of the minuses:
- in the room in the bathroom of the accessories was only liquid soap and toilet paper. No shampoos, ear cleaners, slippers or bathrobes (although the hotel implies 5 stars and all inclusive).
- The hotel itself is huge (the huge hotel itself + numerous cottages), respectively, and vacationers are just the sea! sometimes this "invasion" of Russian speech begins to strain.
- there were also problems with the check-in and the managers thought for a very long time where we should be settled, they waited an hour or more.
From the pros:
- There are no problems with food! Excellent cuisine, a huge range of goodies. On the territory there are several snack bars that work throughout the day, several bars, including fruit and vegetable ice cream in front of the beach unlimited. The bar has unlimited alcohol, both local and foreign.
- A huge beach with a lot of sun loungers, never with them, there was always enough for everyone.
-On the territory of 3 large swimming pools and 1 indoor vip.
- By the way, there are a lot of bars, including 3 pieces in the hotel itself.
- Great animation for kids! Every day, the animation staff entertained the children, and in the evenings they showed performances.
- By the way, almost daily entertainment both during the day (daytime animators) and in the evening (various show programs)
- there is a cool steam locomotive that travels throughout the hotel and neighboring
- by the way, there are about 15 large tennis fields on the territory where visiting athletes trained)
- Cool water park! and there's also free ice cream and goodies
- there are also quite a lot of entertainment for adults on the territory: archery, golf, etc.
In terms of entertainment, everything here is very cool!
-
- The territory is very beautiful, large, well-groomed. Turtles, various animals run around the territory...
- Bungalow - Probably they gave us a terrible bungalow to annoy us (((as if there were 10 m2. We are 2 adults and a child of 8 years old. There was even nowhere to put a suitcase! Shower meter by meter, when you swim all the water runs out of it and runs into the room Soap that is both shampoo and shower gel practically does not lather.
But the room was not cleaned badly. The bar was replenished every day (beer, water, juices, cola, fanta, chips, nuts).
- Meals - I have been to different hotels in Turkey and have something to compare with. Therefore, the food is 4 *, not 5.
For 7 days there was no seafood at all. The fish was every other day only in batter, once on the grill small trout. Meat was meat gravy and grilled chicken. Since I don’t eat meat on vacation, I can’t say how it tastes. Of the fruits there were (apples, oranges, grapes), once they gave strawberries, but they were quickly taken apart and many did not have enough.
There were 2 types of soups, I really liked the lentil soup! Breakfasts are monotonous scrambled eggs, fried eggs, sausages, cheeses, rolls and vegetables.
- Beach - The beach is large, the pebbles are large and it is very painful to enter the sea without special shoes, but the sea was clean and at that time still cold (April 28), the water was +17, so we swam only in the pool. They were clean and warmer than the sea))) Animation is very weak, but maybe for the better.
The child was delighted with the slides, but the water in the pools with slides was just ice cold.
- Bar - In the bar, the glasses were very dirty, the alcohol is local, but if you ask very well, then they get good whiskey and tequila from the bar. Belize is only a local spill, but there is.
—————————
And the cherry on the cake at the end!!!
We signed up for the Ala Carte fish restaurant, the cost per person is 15€.
But the next day we decided that we did not want to go there. I went up to the lady who keeps the appointment and asked if I could cancel my booking without financial loss. To which the girl replied that everything is possible and canceled! But when we left, a surprise was waiting for us at the reception. We were told that we had to pay for dinner at the Fish Restaurant. I say - but we canceled the reservation of the restaurant and did not eat in it, to which they show me an invoice with a list of everything that we "as if ate" and at the bottom is my painting. I was not just shocked... how did it happen that my signature was on the check? I signed only in the journal that I confirm the cancellation of the reservation! But as I understand it, they have a carbon copy there and they automatically put my signature on the check. Naturally, I did not agree with this fraud and asked to invite the hotel manager, they called him and handed me the phone. What does he say to me: What are you thinking that you are the smartest?? ? Pokushyalya and you don’t want to cry ?? ? I have never met such rudeness anywhere else (((I asked to look at the cameras of the restaurant where we eat everything that was listed on the check, but no one wanted to listen to me. As a result, we were not allowed out of the hotel until we paid the bills Of course, I paid this bill, but the rest was already ruined, there was no mood anymore, this hotel left such a sediment on my soul (((
Therefore, I want to warn about fraud on the part of the staff! So that later you will not be in my place.
