Good afternoon.
It turns out something like this.
So in order. Akaalinda, 08.06-17-06 me and my daughter (at a conscious age).
The hotel is an hour and a half drive from the airport, including check-in at three hotels by minibus tour operators. I think that this distance can be reduced to about fifty minutes. Entrance to the territory through a barrier. Since we arrived at 8-30 a.m. there were no available rooms, wait until 14-00. Well, there are no questions here. All the hotel staff speaks fluent Russian (it feels like they came to Sochi), the hotel guests are also mostly Russian-speaking, I'll even say more - Russians (well, or pretend to be). Bracelets are not hung on the arm (and is it right that we are sheep or worse?), this is a definite plus, I do not like tags.
The territory is free of baboons, leopards, elephants and a contact zoo with snow leopards. This is of course an omission. It's not a big area. Definitely even a small one. The main building, a water park, bars, several shops on the beach with a price tag from x5 (take creams and flip-flops with you), from central Russia, swimming pools and that's it. In fact, there is a minimum of free land, well, not enough. I don't need it. The rooms are small. Like in a hotel by the sea. Do not even think about any 120-250 m2 (we are so used to it). 20 meters is probably standard, without a bathtub, the shower area is covered with glass. There are no bathrobes in the room either. Horror. It's a blatant disgrace, how nice it is to see people in dressing gowns around, at breakfast, lunch and the pool, not always in panties under a bathrobe. Here, alas. The rooms are cleaned and the minibar is replenished. Water, beer, chips, lemonades, Cola.
There are no shuttles to the sea. I have to walk. And this is 100 meters from the farthest room.
The sea is salty and transparent. Sometimes it is warmer than 24 degrees. Pebble beach.
Kitchen for every taste and color. Very many and very diverse. Fruit, salads, vegetables, fish, meat, crayfish (they collect huge plates, but what about ... crayfish). Almost around the clock. There are definitely no questions about the kitchen from the word AT ALL (no heartburn, much less something else, and we are picky, we only perceive grandmother's food.
Ice cream all day, pastries, snacks, everything is on a very high level. Bottled beer, alcohol is very decent, there is a water park of its own, not very big but there is. I haven't traveled, I'm not an amateur. The price tag for spa massage parachutes, jet skis is too high in my opinion. It's grossly overstated. It's subjective. To each his own. The poor animators try from 10 a.m. to night, trying to entertain our brother as much as possible. In general, I liked it. I'll give you a solid four plus. Why not five? Five is the benchmark. It doesn't happen.
If you compare, and say that "it's generally 500 times better and 20 times cheaper there, then let's be objective, you need to compare Turkey with Turkey, preferably within the same region, do not compare with the Maldives and Cuba.
