Хороший пансионат, но плохой курорт Good guesthouse but bad resort

The boarding house is good.
Green territory, clean rooms (cleaning every day), tolerable plumbing, delicious food in a cafe, good animation, in the evening they show films on the street on a big screen, I also liked the pool. I really liked the fact that the administration of the boarding house is always ready to help in solving any issues: for example, we needed an additional fan, another pillow, the kettle broke, they immediately gave us another one. Even the room, which turned out to be too hot for us, because. was under a roof, we were allowed to change, although the new room was cheaper. They even refunded the difference.
Now for the disadvantages. The first, and I think the most important drawback is the long distance to the sea. I don’t know how many meters, but the time is about 15 minutes. And this is if you go to a close beach, narrow, with huge pebbles both on the beach and in the sea, where people lie right next to each other. And to a normal beach, wide, equipped with umbrellas and sun loungers, with sand in the sea and small pebbles on the shore (which, by the way, the owner of the boarding house himself advised us to walk 20-25 minutes. ) Maybe for adults this is not so big distance, but we rested with three children, and the children simply refused to go to the sea, we literally carried them in our arms. And this is with a fever of 30-33 degrees.

The second drawback is the pool. Unfortunately, we were able to swim in it in the last 2 days, because before that it was scary to look at the water. When asked why the water is so dirty, we were told that vacationers are to blame, they pollute it. There are also vacationers in hotels in Turkey, Egypt, Bulgaria, but the water is still clean there! In the last days of our holiday, the pool was finally deemed necessary to be cleaned, and our children swam in it, because. I no longer had the strength to go to sea.
A few tips:
1. Do not book a room under the roof on the 3rd floor. Despite the presence of air conditioning, ooo-chen hot! And on the second one too. The best option is the 1st floor!!!
2. The prices in the cafe are quite high. Order first courses, they are very tasty, we also liked pancakes, potatoes with cheese. But the salads are expensive, the portions are small and not very tasty.
3. And the main advice, do not choose Koktebel for your vacation! The locals themselves say that the city is very dirty, and they themselves do not swim on local beaches, that there is no central sewage system in it, and waste with sewage enters the river and then into the sea, right on our beach. Our children have all been ill with an intestinal infection. There is no embankment in the city, nowhere to go.
Have a nice holiday everyone!
