This is some kind of nightmare, nowhere is there any lifts for the stroller, it’s good that I was with my husband. The high steps had to lift the stroller every time from a walk, and in general, walking around the city there are no amenities for mothers, the curbs are high, there was no joy from walking on strollers for a child.

Rested with a family: two adults, a teenager of 15 years old and a child of almost 3 years old (was free). For a 7-day vacation, taking into account the transfer of money through the Security Council of Russia, they paid 28 thousand, very, very modestly. Therefore, initially none of us made high demands on the boarding house.

And therefore, almost everything suited us, of course, you can find fault with the food (monotonous, tasty quickly ends), with the beach (too small, large pebbles, no free sunbeds, the guard lets strangers in: we saw every day when they were waiting for a bus from the beach). BUT, MY DEAR OUTRAGED COMRADES WHO WRITE ABOUT A SPOKEN HOLIDAY, YOU HAVE PAID EXACTLY AS MUCH AS YOU WERE SERVED!! ! If you want better - it costs more, compare prices in other places of the same Alushta.

I've been staying at this resort for years, but I won't be back. As the saying goes, "the rest is not a success"! There are no complaints about the hotel, everything is clean. But the dining room is PI....! . It's a complete mess! Nothing has changed, they complained last year, but this year, in my opinion, is even worse.

I've been staying at this resort for years, but I won't be back. As the saying goes, "the rest is not a success"!
There are no complaints about the hotel, everything is clean. But the dining room is PI....! . It's a complete mess! Nothing has changed, they complained last year, but this year, in my opinion, is even worse. The so-called buffet - otherwise called "who had time, he ate. " What they give there is impossible to eat, but what else could be eaten was not enough for everyone. Every morning scrambled eggs, unleavened pancakes, "rubber" pancakes. There is no meat! Sausages, which are very quickly tired, "bread" cutlets, "fatty" fish, and chicken are all bones - and in very small pieces! I also note the lack of crockery and cutlery. And everything would be fine - but this is every day.
But the biggest negative is the BEACH. The beach is small, there are a lot of people (even a lot). Beach security let people in for money, by the way, there are sunbeds on the beach - 20 UAH. This is despite the fact that the hotel website says - "Sunbeds on the beach and by the pool - FREE"! We went to the beach on the first bus flight and the beach was already packed. We called management, but the situation did not change. The only good thing was the pool. Unlike the beach, there are always not many people there, sunbeds are really free.
In general, I do not advise you to go there if your nerves are dear to you.

After a long search, we chose the Magnolia boarding house in Alushta. Our company is located in two rooms: standard and junior suite. The standard room is small. There are no more complaints about the rooms: the view from the window is beautiful to the mountains and the pool, the room is clean, everything works, the bathroom is modern, clean, linen and towels were changed every 3 days, the maid on our 4th floor is very friendly and decent, we have different money once lying on the bedside table, no one touched anything.

The boarding house buffet, I liked it. I don't eat meat (except chicken) - there's always been fish and chicken. Fish - sole, well cooked. The breakfasts are especially delicious. I took either cottage cheese casserole (sometimes with carrots), or semolina pie. In addition, there was always an omelette, boiled eggs, cheese, sausage, pastries, two types of porridge, kefir, yogurt, milk, and yesterday's dinner was laid out. I don’t understand those who complain about feeding, is it really bad? You might think that only blancmange is eaten at home. The pool is clean, but it smells good of chlorine, we swam for the first two days, then it didn’t feel like it. The unique massage therapist Alexander Georgievich works in the medical center. Cool back massage - 200 rubles, general - 840 rubles. There are no problems with buses to the beach, and it’s not difficult for an adult to walk, but once it was heavy rain, all the boarding houses came to the beach for people, but ours didn’t, because it wasn’t on schedule, until mom called with a child and yelled. But the biggest problem is the beach. No, it is clean, a good entry into the sea, but there are never places under a canopy. We arrived on the first flight at 8 o'clock, the places under the canopy were covered with rags. Having thrown back the rag, we settled in, and no one came. My conclusion is that our beach is a security guard's business, I myself saw how he let strangers in for money. This guard, impudent mug, sits all day in shorts and gnaws seeds. And in "Porto Mare" he stands in uniform and makes sure that the mouse does not slip through. Another disgusting thing, we have a wheel in the sea, it looks like no one is going to get it, it’s good that I found out on the last day. In general, the price-quality ratio is maintained.
But the biggest problem of recreation in the Crimea is unkemptness, garbage in the cities. On the sides of Alushta, there is rubbish, foliage, neglected plants, dry branches, rags on them, a stinky river. The same is true in Yalta. You ride the cable car - in front of you is the incredible beauty of the seascape - you lower your eyes down - rusty barrels, wires, construction debris. There is a political struggle going on, you turn on the TV - there are so many parties, promises, and the simplest and cheapest thing, there is no one to pick up a broom. Sweep Crimea!

Students. We were in Magnolia at the end of August. There are no complaints about the hotel itself. Room (ordinary double) - a solid three stars, cleaning, towels, air conditioning, refrigerator - everything is fine. Territory, building - everything is excellent. The horror begins when you are going to go out to eat or go to the beach.

Students. We were in Magnolia at the end of August.
There are no complaints about the hotel itself. Room (ordinary double) - a solid three stars, cleaning, towels, air conditioning, refrigerator - everything is fine. Territory, building - everything is excellent. The horror begins when you are going to go out to eat or go to the beach.
The buffet selection is to die for. If you're lucky, they will bring out chopped cucumbers and tomatoes, ordinary mashed potatoes or buckwheat for dinner. But mostly I had to choose from several mayonnaise salads and a bunch of fried very salty and peppery dishes. For those who watch their diet, there is practically nothing to do there. By the way, on the fourth day I was poisoned by some kind of potato with a strange gravy (peppered-peppered). I went to the doctor the next morning in the same boarding house and for free, they treated me carefully. Dessert is a different story altogether. Milipizdricheskie buns and biscuits cut into tiny pieces, shortbread cookies - this was very little and not enough for everyone. For breakfast - pancakes and pancakes of dubious freshness. Didn't even find oatmeal on the water. I was pleased at least with the presence of yogurt and kefir (but this was not enough for everyone).
Next up is the beach. The beach is a forty minute walk or ten minutes by bus (they run on schedule, no complaints, but people are packed). It's possible to get there, but it's not worth it. The beach simply does not adequately accommodate so many people. Everyone sits on each other's heads, places need to be taken, it seems that before breakfast. If you are unlucky and arrive with the last batch of people, you will have to sit right by the smoking room with a toilet. There are sheds, but, again, the places under them are occupied by the earliest ones. Walking along the beach without shoes is problematic because of the pebbles. There are no sun loungers. Left-wing people are also allowed in for money (although they won’t fit their own anywhere! ).
An alternative to the beach is the pool, which pleased me the most during my vacation. Clean, shallow, sun loungers, umbrellas, few people, there is enough space for everyone.
As a bonus to everything - a strange stench throughout the boarding house from the street every other day and the insane hum of the air conditioner from the room below ours, which did not let us sleep (at the reception they treated this with understanding and offered to move to one of the neighboring rooms without any problems). In general, there are no complaints about the staff. Both the reception and the maids are pleasant in communication, they will always help.
But we won't go back for anything.

In early August, we rested with children in Magnolia. Junior suite. I liked the boarding house, the room is very comfortable and spacious. Buffet for 4. Delicious, except when potatoes were served, warmed several times. The boarding house has its own beach, very clean. I didn’t like the fact that the last bus leaves the beach at 17.

I didn’t like the fact that the last bus leaves the beach at 17.00, I would like to swim longer, but we arrived at the sea . . It was possible to stay longer on the beach, but then we would not have time for dinner - this is another minus (we had dinner early: 1st shift from 17.00 to 18.00, 2nd shift from 18.00 to 19.00 By the way, another disadvantage was that vacationers who did not live in Magnolia were allowed to go to the beach for money, because of this they had to come on the first bus and, headlong, occupy themselves I would like the administration to decide on the issuance of dry rations in case of excursions. But what else I liked: the staff at the boarding house is very friendly, polite.

Rested in a single room from 30/07 to 11/08. I liked everything, the room is super, with air conditioning, the territory is small but well-groomed, the food is also quite normal, it’s impossible to stay hungry, moderately varied, tasty, everything is fresh. In the morning - yogurt, kefir, milk, cereals, cereals + sausages, scrambled eggs, side dishes, pastries.

In the morning - yogurt, kefir, milk, cereals, cereals + sausages, scrambled eggs, side dishes, pastries. In the evening - two types of soups, different side dishes, chicken, meat, fish, 2 types of salads, snacks from vegetables + fruits, pastries. Those who rely on a buffet "like in Turkey" should still fly to Turkey itself : )) There is a menu in the bar, and since there is no lunch there, if you are hungry, you can order food for a fee, and do not go to lunch at the city, if you lie by the pool, it's very convenient : )) In the evening they play movies / cartoons + their channel on TV. Any minibus with the inscription "Sudak ring" goes to the city. To the sea to go well, min. 20-25, but I like to walk, it didn't really bother me. The beach is also far away, but there are buses from the hotel, and the last few days I also ran on foot, cut through the tunnel (it is not far from the beach). I note: for those who like everything to be nearby, you need to think about the choice. In general, the boarding house is very decent, with sympathetic and extremely friendly staff!! ! The overall rating is "excellent"!

A few days since we returned from Magnolia. We go there for the second year and everything is the same... The cost of rest translates into a pretty penny, and the service is soaked through with Soviet deputies... Room cleaning and linen change were scheduled, which was nice, but this year the maid for some reason did not washed the balcony.

A few days since we returned from Magnolia. We go there for the second year and everything is the same... The cost of rest translates into a pretty penny, and the service is soaked through with Soviet deputies... Room cleaning and linen change were scheduled, which was nice, but this year the maid for some reason did not washed the balcony... The bed was also not made, and if there was some kind of dirty dishes, it remained in place...
The food section is very frustrating (after all, we are on vacation, and not in pursuit of a piece of bread) the canteen cannot cope and therefore our citizens line up even before breakfast or dinner starts and God forbid you oversleep, tea and coffee and cups will end etc. Since last year, the canteen has changed, only the fact that the waiters were recruited by guys, but this did not affect the result of the service. The time for eating is allotted 30 minutes per shift, which also forces people to rush and push their elbows...
Export to the beach also leaves much to be desired, the same queues and crush on the bus, since the beach is small and not well-maintained. They take out to the beach on several flights, and there are half as many flights from the beach, and the bus can get full and leave ahead of time, which happened to us, the next one has to wait exactly an hour, but in the very sun, when the majority of people want to leave the beach, you can make two walks... So with a small child in our arms, we had to walk and stop other passing vehicles... The only joy is the pool, which eliminates trips to the sea and brings joy to children more than the sea.
Entertainment on the territory is also all paid, if children want to play badminton or ping pong - pay...
In general, if you do not eat on a ticket, but for your hard-earned money, you need to be prepared for the fact that the PRICE is much higher than the service. Or go there out of season, when the hotel is not full. . .

Yesterday we returned from a trip and today, after a little rest, we decided to share our impressions. First, why did you choose a boarding house: the first is your own medical center (when you go with children far from home, this is important), your beach, parking, living conditions and, of course, reviews from site visitors.

Yesterday we returned from a trip and today, after a little rest, we decided to share our impressions. First, why did you choose a boarding house: the first is your own medical center (when you go with children far from home, this is important), your beach, parking, living conditions and, of course, reviews from site visitors. Now, in more detail, what I liked: of course, the magnificent territory, the cleanliness in the room (the door to the balcony, which Ollgaa complained about, I repaired myself), my wife and daughters were delighted with the salt room, the magnificent air (who did not live among the factories will not understand), clean beach, great staff. Now a small fly in the ointment: The beach is really far away -2.5 km on the speedometer (we traveled in our car, why they refused the bus having gone down once), they talked about the lack of sunbeds washed into the sea, but this trouble apparently affected only Magnolia beach, there was no storm on the other beaches. Only the lazy didn’t write about the dining room - I don’t know there was enough food, and even more if it weren’t for the idiotic habit “I don’t eat what I bite” why did you need to pick up seven cakes if three remain on the plate? with me, a woman with a Baltic accent took 6-7 bags of coffee (fortunately, then this practice was stopped and they brought a divorced one, everyone immediately began to have enough). The beginning of breakfast-dinner on the first shift looked funny (we ate on the second shift) - "God forbid at least once to be so hungry. " The gym, declared on the site, worked three times a week for three hours a day according to an incomprehensible schedule - I want to come. I asked about WiFi, which was confidently caught in the room, they said that it was paid and that the system administrator knew the password, who also had free access (or I was just unlucky to catch him, so I used the services of a cafe on the square along with a cup of coffee). I was struck by the huge number of sniffing, coughing, sneezing vacationers. And IT was in the dining room and on the bus and on the beach. Personally, we came to get healthy, not to catch infections. . I think many who came with children and wives "in position" (there were really a lot of them too) - too. This was one of the reasons why we went to the beach in our car, and then "rounded off" with a rest (when a woman with a boy "with a temperature" came to speleotherapy). there was not enough laundry service (they really brought a basin instantly (thanks to the maid), there was also something and where to iron, but alas, to dry it. With children, this is relevant. In the first days of September, the number of waitresses was reduced (for some reason, the boarding house was full) and the girls simply did not have time to clean the dishes from the tables, sometimes they had to help, but I repeat it was not their fault. But if you do not pay attention to these little things, the rest was a success.

The building of the boarding house raises no objections. But with food and the beach is nowhere worse. Imagine 300 people have to stand in line for an hour to all the elements of breakfast / dinner - for tea, for the first, for the second, for a watermelon or melon and still have time to eat it. there is a crush everywhere, otherwise you won’t have time to sweep everything away.

Now about the beach. The hotel website says that the pool and the beach are equipped with sun loungers. They are in the pool, but not a single one on the beach, the guard on the beach said everything was washed away into the sea, but this is understandable lies. In any nearby beach there are wooden and plastic sun loungers, and in Magnolia there is not a single one - a disgrace !! !
