Чудесный отдых Wonderful holiday

After searching the Internet for a long time for places to stay, we stopped at the Chaika Hotel in the village of Rybachye: we wanted a quiet holiday on a clean beach and in a cozy hotel. In general, what they wanted, that's what they got. As for the Chaika Hotel, everything is just super! The hotel is very clean, well-groomed, smells of roses, always a clean pool, friendly intelligent hosts....We (two adults and a 4-year-old daughter) rented a suite on the second floor overlooking the courtyard, it turned out to be very convenient, because the child played all day long (excluding trips to the sea and excursions) in the yard, and we only periodically looked at him from the window, in short, the yard in Chaika is the equivalent of a nanny. True, our child is relatively calm and adequate: we knew for sure that he would not jump into the pool and pour sand there. The room was cleaned regularly and very well. Separately, I would like to note the hospitable hosts: they are always responsive, friendly, they will tell you what and where is better. They have a 4-year-old son who often walked in the yard with vacationers, and the owners often stayed with us in the yard and talked nicely.
The tables in Chaika were set by the girls and the Kara Deniz cafe, but we mostly ate in the cafe itself, it was more convenient for us. The food is simple, nothing special, but always fresh and tasty enough. True, cereals for children from packages with a terrible taste of chemistry, so I had to do without them. Sometimes they had breakfast and dinner at the villa itself with their own products. Prices at Kara Deniz are affordable, consistent with quality and service.
It is very good that there was a swimming pool in the yard, very convenient for children, and adults are also pleased. Thanks to him and the girl Angelina and her mother, we learned to swim and dive. Excursions left a lot of impressions, but be aware that they cost more than they tell you when buying: everywhere upon arrival you had to pay extra from 5 to 50 hryvnias. We went to the water park in Partenit, took a boat trip along the Crimean coast: Nikitsky Botanical Garden, Vorontsov Palace, Swallow's Nest, evening Yalta, and of course we could not help but visit the Dzhur-Dzhur waterfall. As for the excursions, all were unforgettable and left a lot of impressions.

But as for the village itself, this is a fly in the ointment in all the rest. The village is very dirty and unkempt. The central street is narrow, without sidewalks, it is all lined with tents, retail outlets, very dusty, polluted with crowds of people, in short, just a nightmare, it is simply impossible to walk with a child, and without it too. Sellers in stores are something with something, it seems that they are “nobles, and we are dirty peasants”, they are ready to choke for an ice cream stick, some even by the end of the holiday began to demand money for sticks, because this ice cream, it turns out, the stick does not go, and before that it went all 10 days. The girls selling bus tickets, too, as if they had eaten something wrong, rude, rude are still the same, in short, it’s better not to save on taxis: you will get there without rudeness and on time, because. all transport, without exception, is late by 10-15 minutes, and they are forced to arrive 10 minutes before departure, so you have to stand under the scorching sun for 20 or even 30 minutes, because there are no canopies or places to sit at the so-called stops .
The sea on the central beach is also not very clean, and the beach itself is even worse. We walked through Kulon, avoiding the creepy main street. It’s about 300 meters from Chaika to the sea, but we went further, to the left of Coulomb, there are fewer people there, and the sea is much cleaner: without boats and scooters. The road through Coulomb is dusty in the beginning, but then very pleasant. Steps to the sea are not so scary (in terms of their number) with equipped viewing platforms.
In short, if you do not pay attention to the village itself, its inhabitants, the main street and the dirty central beach, then the rest was a success. Next year, most likely, we will go there again, for a family holiday, given the very good hotel and clear sea, this is a pretty good place.
