Порто Маре - это рай, только его ты выбирай! Porto Mare is a paradise, only you choose it!

My two daughters and I arrived at the Porto Mare Park Hotel. This is a modern hotel complex that meets international 4 * standards and provides a comfortable family vacation and recreation for the whole family. At the reception we were greeted with a smile, kindly, and immediately felt so cozy and warm... perhaps also because everything was decorated in warm beige and pale blue tones. The armchair in the hall immediately caught my eye. Unusual cosmic shape, spinning on a leg. As we later found out, this chair is very fond of both children and adults. And this not entirely clear unusual chair gave some mystery to the hall itself. We were handed the key to the room and shown off.
From this place, the fairy tale has already begun to come true! Mirrored elevators, heavy red oak front doors, all this concealed something very, very unusual and interesting. Opening the door to my presidential suite. . . the first thing my girls said was: “Wow, mom, how beautiful it is here! ” Undressed, but right in their outer clothes, they jumped, jumped and threw pillows on a huge beautiful sofa in the middle of the living room. And I remained standing at the door with a suitcase, looking at everything around. Yes, I will not hide, my admiration knew no bounds, because, as my family, we have never rested in SUCH rooms. Here reigned impermissible luxury, taste, comfort. Everything, down to a single curtain and a glass, was impossible to perfect, already scary))). In the room: a children's room with two spacious beds, comfortable armchairs, plasma, a bathroom with a view of the Crimean mountains, all in mirrors, snow-white. The living room, smoothly turning into the kitchen, where there are all kitchen utensils and appliances necessary to make the rest a rest. In the living room there are two large beautiful comfortable sofas with small pillows that you just want to press against you. A large white dining table and transparent chairs with backs - so unusual, and at the same time natural. Another bedroom, already for adults with a snow-white shower room, table lamps in unison, a large closet with mirrored doors, where you can hide not only all your luggage, but also go in and wander through the back streets))). Two balconies with wicker furniture, glass tables and views of the mountains and the park area.
As for the territory of the Porto Mare Park Hotel, I am afraid that I simply do not have enough words to convey all its beauty and uniqueness. It has everything for a full-fledged quality holiday, both with family, children, and individually. A unique mountain waterfall, the scent of pine needles, squirrels rustling somewhere upstairs, a mini-zoo, a complex of heated pools, a chessboard with figures the height of an eight-year-old child, where you can become and turn into a chess queen, as my girls did. The Mare Land amusement park with attractions, courts, a beauty salon, a medical center with oxygen foam and physiotherapy, a bath complex, and even its own concert hall with 980 seats. The playroom is a paradise for children. There we were received with such cordiality, my girls were occupied there not only with games, but also with creative activities, so much so that we left there with tears and promises to return tomorrow. Animators are professionals who know how and what to interest and entertain the child with benefit.

It was time for lunch. And we went to the Porto Mare restaurant with a summer terrace. In addition, there is also a Lobby bar where you can comfortably sit on soft sofas or pale blue armchairs, squeeze a soft pillow and drink a cup of aromatic coffee or tea, a sushi bar, Grill & Aqua bar, fish restaurant "El Faro". As you can see, the cuisine here is very diverse and will satisfy the wishes of even the most demanding gourmet. A wide range of drinks and dishes of Ukrainian and European cuisine can provide healthy and most importantly delicious food. Our meals corresponded to the "Swedish line" system, we were given a menu, and we could choose the dishes that we wanted in any quantity. The restaurant administrator Margarita was always tirelessly at her post and was ready to help at any moment. As for taste preferences, I clicked more on sea dishes - from fish, seafood, juices, the children were delighted with the skill of the pastry chef and every day they were delighted with pastries. We were able to taste sauces, mayonnaises and homemade bread, we were offered a special collection of wine specifically for Porto Mare. In general, we brought a couple of extra pounds from there. ))) And even a rich entertainment program and forays into the mountains did not save our figures... These five days have become fabulously unreal for all of us. It was as if we were “torn out” from our ordinary gray life and plunged into a colorful bright world. I would never have believed that Crimea can be such that in the off-season you can get a unique, comfortable, educational and useful vacation for the whole family. The combination of professionalism in all aspects of the holiday, this is food, and the hotel room, and its territory, and friendly staff, and all the well-built infrastructure of Porto Mare - all this made our vacation not only unforgettable, but also fabulously unusual, showing us that Crimea is not only summer, sun and sea, but also a cultural, multifaceted and unexplored corner of our beautiful Ukraine, which has its charm not only in summer, but also at any other time of the year!
