This year we decided to divide 14 days of rest in half and relax in different places (mother, father, child of 6 years old).
We chose "Kazantip-Center" in Novootradny and "Marat Park-Hotel" in Gaspra (I'll write a review).
If you want to swim, sunbathe and just take a break from people, then you are in Novootradnoye!
The sea is clean, where it is shallow, where it is deep (who loves what). The beach is wide, sandy, and long along the entire Kazntip Bay, i. e. sunbathe and swim wherever you want.
The air is dry, steppe, so the heat was much easier to bear than in Yalta (as it turned out).
Few people)))
Fruits, vegetables, wine, fish are quite cheap (again, compared to Gaspra).
Now about the boarding house itself, as always, there are pluses and minuses (I am glad that the minuses can be completely eliminated if the owners want of course:
PROS:

- the rooms (they lived in the "ruler" building, they are optimal with children) are clean, spacious. Wonderful veranda, in front of each number in the "line".
- wet cleaning every day without reminders.
- the territory is green and cozy, there is a place for children to run.
- food FOR ADULTS is tasty, satisfying, homemade, but not very diverse.
- pleasant atmosphere, 90% of vacationers are parents with children, i. е. children are not bored. many friends.
- near the "General's Beaches", it's sooo beautiful there!
MINUSES:
- towels and bed linen were not changed even once in a week (apparently it was necessary to ask).
- the bar has a very meager, but very expensive assortment (and the nearest store is 2 km on foot). By the way, finding a saleswoman from a bar is incredibly difficult)) everyone was looking for her all the time))
- the lack of a children's menu, but it is necessary because. there are many children, and many dishes for children are fatty and spicy (I had to supplement the child with milk from the store (we walked to the village a couple of times). And they never gave fruit, although the season.
- lack of a kettle in the room (many complained). Personally, our family loves tea and coffee, but they gave it 2 times a day in the dining room and everything... there is nowhere else to take it, buy it.
- the TV shows only 4 channels, I understand we did not come to watch TV... but what if it rains? Or at the height of the heat?
- forgetful hosts))) if you ask for something, you need to remind more than once))
In general, the cons are not global, but annoying. you understand that it is easy to eliminate them, but apparently laziness... or sorry for the money))
CONCLUSION: a good place for lovers of a quiet and relaxing family holiday. There is no entertainment, but: SEA, BEACH, AIR, NO CROWD!
If the owners react to the minuses, we will come again with great pleasure!
