We rested in the sanatorium in mid-August 2012, upon arrival I decided that I would definitely leave a review about this institution. I'll start in order. Treatment is included in the cost of the tour, but it is minimal - inhalations, mineral water, exercises in the morning. The rest is for an additional fee. There is a swimming pool on site, but most of the time it is closed and there is a no-swimming sign on it. If you are lucky enough to find it open, then you have to pay for visiting it, and if you want to lie next to it, pay for a sun lounger. In the mornings, water aerobics is also carried out for a fee.
The beach is clean, that's about it. Entry into the sea is very bad - large slippery cobblestones. If you are a good swimmer, you can enter the water from the stairs on the pier.
Dining-requires a separate story. This is the biggest minus of the resort. The food is disgusting. In the morning, semolina porridge and oatmeal are gray in color, on the water. If you prefer something more substantial for breakfast, you can take chicken broth or fried fish, which the aunt gives out only two pieces, and the same fish is served for dinner. There are sausages, eggs and scrambled eggs, cheese is transparently sliced ​ ​ and smeared on a pallet. Tea-water is tasteless and odorless, the color also remotely resembles tea. The same can be said about dried fruit compote - tasteless water. You can only drink hibiscus. At lunch, food is more or less. There are always several types of soups or borscht to choose from. There are salads repeated for breakfast and for lunch and dinner. No particular diversity is observed. For dinner, fish, which is found in the morning or at lunch, fish cakes are not in demand, sometimes beef or stuffed peppers. Garnishes are constant - pasta and mashed potatoes, and a miracle dish - rice with cracklings. An aunt stands on all this and distributes in portions (despite the buffet system). From fruits - apples, grapes, plums. There is kefir. In the evening there is always baking - tiny but delicious buns! Perhaps dinner is the most difficult test, there is nothing to choose from, stewed cabbage is wild heartburn. This is a sanatorium, and people are prescribed diets. How can you feed like that? In general, the food is monotonous, savings are noticeable and the use of the same products several times - seaweed that is not eaten in the morning and evening is diluted with chopped egg yolk and a new salad is ready! the same applies to fish, vegetable cuts from which salad is mixed in the evening. And to everything, not in plus the dining room, which was repeatedly noticed by me and other vacationers, very poorly washed dishes! In addition, the ventilation system in the dining room is very poor. After her visit, all the clothes are saturated with the smell of the "canteen", the feeling is as if you were standing at the stove and cooking for yourself.

The building-number was in the 3rd medical building. The room is excellent, fresh renovation, furniture and TV, plumbing, everything is just super. Gorgeous view of Bear Mountain and Cape Plaka. Rooms are cleaned every day, linen and towels are changed every three days. Constantly replenished stock of shampoos and shower gels. The staff is smiling and friendly. The territory of the sanatorium is large and abandoned, care is not given due attention.
Parking-entrance to the territory is carried out by passes, parking is paid. If you were brought by relatives, unload with your suitcases at the gates of the sanatorium. Rude guards flatly refuse entry even to turn the car around (the road to the sanatorium is mountainous and very narrow, cars are parked nearby on the sides of the road). I want to note that the guards justify the refusal to enter the territory of the sanatorium for newly arrived at the sanatorium for, say, 20 minutes for registration, by the fact that the sanatorium is a protected area. With all this, on the way to the sea you are constantly harassed by cars passing up and down. Apparently, the parking fee is 30 UAH. gives priority over the fact that it is a protected area. Too bad the rules aren't the same for everyone. The management of the sanatorium should think about it. Moreover, many come with elderly people or small children who find it difficult to walk far. And the guards should be trained to speak civilly and calmly.
Fans of the Crimea and its nature, who know about the level of service and all the surprises of sanatoriums, may have a good sea and warm sun, as well as beautiful nature, perhaps compensate for all the listed disadvantages. But if you want an appropriate level for a very decent price, which is worth a ticket, you are unlikely to find it in Utes. The management needs to read the reviews of tourists more often and take action. The sanatorium has all the prerequisites for successful development, you just need to look at the weak points and refine them.
