Came to Violet purely by accident. The tickets were already on hand, we would leave in a day, but we had not yet decided where to live. We wrote to Violet, they answered us immediately. And we went... Moscow-Simferopol trains and back (coupe) - terribly dirty !!!
Our impressions of Violeta: we got to the hotel at about 12 noon. Despite this, we gladly welcomed. They prepared 2 rooms for us to choose from. The rooms are so clean, like they've been licked. We entered the first suite. The room has a pleasant aroma, a night light is included. The atmosphere is ok. romantic!: ) The second number is smaller, cheaper and simpler, but also nice. Walk so walk, chose a suite! The room has Everything for life: 1 double bed with orthopedic mattress + sofa bed, large wardrobe, large refrigerator with freezer, 2 bedside tables, 2 night lamps, satellite TV, air conditioning, private balcony with table and chairs. On the balcony, as it were, the kitchen is made: a sink, an electric stove, an electric kettle, cups, plates, etc. right down to the corkscrew and ladle! In the evenings, we drank on the balcony: we ate fish with beer and looked at the Respect Hall cable car. The room was cleaned every day, swans and elephants were made from towels on a luxurious bed (no worse than in Turkey). The hotel itself consists of 8 rooms, a fenced area. There is very little space on the street, but everything is in flowers and tiles, och. nice and clean! To the sea 10 min. into a wreck. Beach - from san. Ai-Petri, paid, after 18 hours - free of charge. The sea is a large pebble (you don’t walk barefoot) very clean! There is no food at the hotel (if you don’t cook it yourself). We ate at the neighboring Rhodes hotel. Meals are ordered, there is always a choice. It's like a cafe-restaurant. I can’t say that it’s super, but for a solid four + Pts. clean and ok. polite waiters.
We are very picky and critical (to be honest) people. But the rest of 2013 was a success, we all really enjoyed it! Thank you very much to the owners of Violeta for everything and a huge hello! If I understand correctly, the owners of the hotel are family. Very hospitable, polite, tactful, friendly, intelligent people. They do not watch you all the time and do not make comments, in general you feel relaxed and comfortable.

I highly recommend visiting the Yalta Zoo (private)! THAT'S GREAT!! ! In it, some animals (they just walk, walk) can be stroked. The walk will take at least 3 hours. The zoo is amazing not only with a huge number of animals, but also with the same huge amount of vegetation. It was there that I can say and learned the nature of the Crimea: rare plants, shrubs, trees. THE BEAUTY!! ! I don’t advise you to the aquarium, the price is too high, it’s not worth it.
Were in Yalta. People och. lot. I liked the dances of pensioners on the embankment near the monument to Lenin. you can watch it forever! Grannies are all overdressed. There are almost no grandfathers, probably already extinct. There was a couple dancing. Very beautiful, elegant couple, despite their advanced age. Apparently engaged in professional ballroom dancing all their lives. How well they danced!
Swallow's Nest. If you go, say, by water or by minibus at some distance from it, say after 22:00. in the evening the view is amazing. There oh. beautiful white illumination, this is how we saw the Swallow's Nest when we drove to Violet late in the evening. Just puppy delight. I don’t see the point in visiting the nest directly, because. because of the danger of collapse, they don’t let him in + a huge number of people crowd.
I don’t advise you to buy a single ticket for all excursions for 90 hryvnias to the Vorontsov Palace, you simply don’t have enough health to get around all this, it’s about 5-6 hours (3-hour tour of the park + it seems 8 halls of the Vorontsov Palace + 5 independent exhibitions ! ) Pts. a lot of information, and therefore, after a couple of hours, you already begin to misunderstand the information from the guide: who went where, who went to whose brother, when it was built... It's a mess in my head.
I advise you to travel by water transport: fresh and fast, although expensive - 40 hryvnia for 1 person. Miskhor-Yalta.
About currency exchange. Opposite Violeta exchanger - the rate is so-so. The best rate was in Yalta (oddly enough), in the exchange office in the Vorontsov Palace and at the cable car.

Small minuses: 1. minus the hairdresser in Rhodes - a huge price. The price is more than in Moscow (highlighting, shoulder-length hair, then toning-830 hryvnia!!! ). 2. Cableway to Ai-Petri. Scary. Minus: the ascent is fast enough, you don’t have time to see everything properly, and 30 people are stuffed into the cabin! Lucky for the one who will be at the window, and the rest, on the toes behind their heads, if they see anything, it’s good. In general, of course it's interesting. When you get to the top, there for a fee you can climb even higher, for denyuzhka. The view is awesome. If you go to the mountain in the evening, then dress warmly. We climbed on a day when it was sunny, +33 in the afternoon. After 6 pm on the mountain, I wanted to wrap myself up in something, especially to cover my head, och. strong wind. At the top, a lot of sheep wool products and all sorts of souvenirs are sold. the queue was huge + froze.
If you want to heal, there are only sanatoriums around. We contacted Ai-Petri. The child was given: massage, inhalation, salt cave, oxygen cocktail, herbal tea, vacuum drainage of the tonsils. In winter, we'll see the result. We paid for each procedure, but it turns out you can buy at the reception in a sanatorium like a sanatorium card, it's more profitable!!!
!
Tip: do not plan excursion trips until 16-17 hours. You can die from the heat. Do not rent accommodation further from the sea than the level of Violeta. The road to the sea goes under a fairly large slope. And the farther you rent accommodation, the more exhausted on the way back. Be careful, a lot of people fall, slip in flip-flops on such steep slopes. Picture: dad put a small child on his shoulders, walked to the sea, a steep descent, asphalt. He slipped and miraculously did not crash and kill the child. How his wife yelled at him! How many times have I almost fallen. So be careful.
In general, they did not regret at all that they chose Crimea. Have a good holiday everyone!
