A great place for a winter vacation. And for children, it's just a fairy tale, a lot of entertainment. Very tasty cuisine, cozy rooms. We have been coming for 3 years in a row.
We went twice last year and this year. There are a lot more guests compared to last year. Like an anthill. It was only good on the day of departure, Sunday - most of them had checked out and there weren't too many people in the spa and water park during the day.
For the first two days, I didn't want to go anywhere at all, it was crowded, stuffy, and there were ill-mannered children around 😵💫
Next time we'll go on weekdays.
There are too many guests from Astana and Kokshetau on Friday.
The best place I've been to, very tasty hearty food, a very good water park, I also really liked the Sky SPA there is a heated pool. In general, I advise everyone
The best place! My family and I celebrated New Year's Eve in Lapland last year. We traveled through Germany and Finland. The impressions are not justified. Discovery in Borovoye enjoyed the conditions and the rest itself more!!! We were pleasantly surprised by the prices. One disadvantage was that we were charged 30k each for towels that we left at their place in the pool area.
This place made a very twofold impression on me.
It seems to be with a swing at a good hotel, but it turned out to be an average boarding house for families with children. You will be greeted at the reception by seemingly friendly staff, but when difficulties arise, their mood changes, so that you do not want to check in, but turn around and leave. But no, you have to patiently pay for your accommodation with one bill and give permission to send it by mail and phone. After the reception we go to the room.
The territory is well-groomed, there are many playgrounds, a rope park, an active animation program for children is held, there is a children's sink and toilet in the rooms, there is an excellent children's area in the water park, and everything seems to be fine, BUT it is clear that parents want to relax, but still see drunk people on the territory, which is almost all devoted to children's rest is unpleasant. And the fact that children can be seen in the cage bar at 10 p.m., where not only almost everyone drinks, but also smokes, is nonsense in my opinion. But again, there is entertainment for both children and adults.
It's also interesting with the dining room, there is a FaceID, there is a separate children's area, the food is delicious, BUT the tables are small, that 4 people barely fit, there is no choice of food, and if you don't eat something, you can stay hungry, instant coffee (for normal you need to go to the Squirrel coffee shop), and napkins There are slides
in the water park, there is a cold pool in which it is great to swim after saunas, BUT the saunas have tiles, not wooden floors. They also hold a soaring SHOW, it's really more of a show than soaring, intimidating, calling vacationers cowards and weaklings is not the level of a good bath attendant. There is no ventilation, there are not enough ordinary windows, and there are also bags for replacement shoes, which will fit only one sneaker.
There is a separate outdoor heated pool overlooking the lake, there is a hammam and a cafe inside, everything seems to be fine, but no, smokers can also wait for you here, not only cigarettes, but also hookah and you breathe not fresh air, but the corresponding smells.
The room also seems to be good, huge beds, blackout curtains, it costs two 0.5 bottles of water, BUT there is no mesh on the window, no spoon for shoes, no bathrobes (again, once you take a deposit, you can not be afraid to give bathrobes, because it is more convenient to walk in them and in the room and from the water park or outdoor pool to walk), there is no flexible watering can in the shower, try to wash up...the water also leaves badly, so I had to turn off the water and wait for it to leave in order to continue washing.
There is also WI-FI, it is not in the rooms, only at the reception and in bars/recreation areas. By the way, there are recreation areas, you can play tennis and playstation, but you won't last long from the heat there, ventilation is not thought out.
And there is no phone in the rooms to communicate with the reception, a cell number is indicated that does not answer (and if suddenly a foreigner is resting without a local SIM card and roaming ...). And it turns out that water is supplied only on the day of arrival, and on the rest, be kind enough to buy in the store and bars.
You can also rent sports equipment, everything is OK with balls, take them, leave them in a basketball ring (just a ring on a tree, why not equip a good basketball court, they made a good field for football) or play volleyball, but bicycles will be given without protective equipment, apparently you need to carry a helmet with you.
There is physical activity for adults in the program of the day, yoga, stretching, jumping. There is a gym, but most of the simulators require repair/replacement, there is no water cooler.
What conclusion can be drawn from all this, probably, if the prices were three times lower, it could be considered as a place to relax, and it is so sad that you need to travel abroad for the service.
Everything is top notch, we were very satisfied with the service and the amount of variety. The weekend was memorable and as positive as possible. We will definitely visit you again!
A great place for a family vacation!!!
There is a lot of entertainment for children, well, adults are not offended either)))
The rooms are chic, cozy, warm, clean.
Earlier we read reviews about the slow work of the reception at check-in, so we checked in quickly, within 45 minutes, we arrived almost an hour before check-in, after all, when you arrive in warm countries by the sea, you also wait for check-in. The only thing is that you wait a long time for drinks at the water park and the bar, because there are a lot of people and the waitress at the water park is alone, and there are a lot of people. Many will say it's expensive, but all the work of this hotel and the service correspond to this money.
A great place for a family vacation. Everything is thought out, everything is on site, a shop, a cafe, a bar, a water park and a lot of entertainment for children. The kitchen is simple ❤❤❤❤❤ everything is very tasty, homely, varied. The territory is well maintained, clean, and the rooms are also comfortable. I recommend it! Nature alone is worth something!❤️🔥
A great place for a family vacation!!! We really enjoyed our stay in Discovery. Very attentive and friendly staff, excellent pools and various baths, a wonderful area for walking.
The best in Kazakhstan!!!for activities and entertainment events!!!Everything is included!Nice rooms, Sky Spa!! The water park!!!lots of playgrounds!!!animation!!!The staff!!!everything is right on the level!!!It's great for Kazakhstan!!!We were satisfied!
Hello. This is the best place to relax in Kazakhstan!!!!! Everything has been thought out to the smallest detail.The staff is excellent, polite.The kitchen is at the highest level, the comfort and cleanliness of the rooms. The territory is large, clean, there are a lot of locations for walking!At the very beginning, the pool flew in from the street.THE only disadvantage IS THAT I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE YOU!!!Prosperity to you!!!!!!
A great place is worth the money. The service is top-notch. There is a wide range of entertainment for children of all ages. The food is very tasty and varied.
The staff is very friendly! Especially in the dining room! 5 stars!
There's a handsome guy in the steam room at the water park! For the first time I saw an employee who gets high from his job!
Super rest!!! It's just a fairy tale!!! Well done!! Special thanks to the wonderful cuisine, chefs, and officials!!!! I advise everyone to visit Discovery at least once!!!
We visited many recreation areas in Borovoye . But Discovery , the best of the best ! All the entertainment in one place, the food is delicious, satisfying, lots of activities for children, amazing air! We have already come 4 times , and the service and repairs are improving every year. And every time they come up with something new! thank you very much! We are your regular guests! The Gauss Family!
A wonderful place! Clean, tasty, fun! With each arrival - something new! We love the steaming ceremony, the outdoor pool (at any time of the year), skiing, Nordic walking, rope park, delicious treats, live music. Children have their own entertainment - numerous master classes, their own children's restaurant, a water park. Excellent, attentive staff, experts in their field. The owners invest very well in their offspring. Everything is done with love and care for the guests.
We had a great time with our friends. Everything is at the highest level, there is entertainment for any time of the year, not only for adult recreation, but also for family
The food, the accommodation is super, the rest is more for couples, a lot of entertainment programs! I liked the water park and outdoor pool, 5 types of steam rooms, Among the disadvantages are the cosmic prices in the indoor store and in bars, if you are not eating on your own with children, buy juices in advance! Also, in the water park in the large pool, the size of the pool was disappointing, more could have been done, there is enough space for expansion and another disadvantage, there is no age limit, adults with children, like a paddling pool, do not really swim, such a pool should be only for adults, there are enough mini pools for children. The outdoor pool has a hammam for warming up, it is well done, but due to the lack of a hydraulic seal in the cream on the floor, there is an unpleasant smell of sewage. In general, I liked to relax there, provided that I did not have time to participate in all the events, but the nature, the air of needles in the room when the window is opened, is just super!
We liked it, but for the price from the union. Of course, what prices are usually there, we would not go. And so of course super there.Nice rooms, nice to sleep on bed linen. Very clean. Excellent staff. The Cage bar is not very hot, very stuffy. And so the owners are well done, they invest the norms. We were without children. I think other children are happy there because they have a good leisure time. The water park did not enter, it was cool in the hangar itself. And the hot pool is super. In general, I recommend it 👍
Absolutely everything is at the highest level, the food is very tasty and a lot, the staff is all friendly, there is a lot of entertainment for children and the whole family, the rooms are gorgeous, the underfloor heating is generally super. You don't need to go abroad when you have a Discovery
A great place to relax with the whole family! I really liked it! Everything is very cool!!! The service does not stand still, but it is pleasantly refreshing every time!!!
Everything is OK
I liked it, we will come again, the impressions are wonderful, the place is amazing, there is everything you need, it's convenient to get there, we will advise everyone since we were here ourselves
The food doesn't hold up anyway, it's more like a canteen meal. And so the pool, the water park are all cool. We didn't go to the bar. And by the way, it's better to pay in cash upon arrival - they give you a 20% cashback. They can be used to buy food and drinks in the same cafe or bar. The baths are cool
To say great is to say nothing. This is our first time here, and we like everything. Starting from the check-in, the staff is all friendly. The cuisine is excellent, there are many impressions. We are already planning to arrive in the summer.
The family resort hotel is gorgeous. We were with a family, 2 adults and 3 children. The children are delighted, the food is delicious. We loved staying here. 😍
The best place to go with your family at any time of the year, concerts are held every day, an entertainment event for your children, there is a water park where there are 5!! Slides for both you and children there is a rope park for children and adults a very good room can be rented for four, meals are also included there are 3 floors and on the third floor there is a special dining room for your children! There is also a place where you can sit on sun beds with fresh air and free Wi-Fi. There is a place where you can play Mort combos and similar games, you can ride bicycles. I advise everyone to visit this wonderful Discovery Borovoy
a great resort hotel, especially for families traveling with children. There are a lot of free hobbies for them. There is a cool clean heated outdoor swimming pool on site. The food is amazing. The rooms are very comfortable and beautifully designed.
There's a lot to say about this place. Probably the most important thing is price = quality. If we consider other resorts in Borovoye, then Discovery is the most affordable. Everything is included, a huge territory, a lot of different entertainment. We have already gone there 3 times and we will definitely come again.
A great vacation for the whole family. So much emotion. So much fun for all ages. The prices are acceptable. The animators are well done, everything is well organized and thought out. And eating is a separate pleasure.
Various quests, games, workshops for children. There is a playground in the building, slides on the street. It's all clear. The room is cleaned every day. Attentive instructors at the water park.Delicious and satisfying food.
There is no doubt. This is Love. If you measure the price and quality in the entire resort, this is the best. And it turns out cheaper than other places with, moreover, the provision of organized leisure.
We were in August 2022, there was no new building with a swimming pool yet, the beach was not equipped, but we really liked it. The child was delighted with the events. The food is good, everything is clean, rooms are provided for children, a separate sink and toilet for them. The animation is super, the air is clean. Beauty 😍
Super vacation, my favorite one!!! I have been resting 2 times a year for many years!!! I like everything!!! Food,entertainment,vat,swimming pool,Cage bar,cottage.But most of all, I love steaming in the bath, especially when we are steamed by a shaman Damirchik!!!
A super place! The programs are full for all days. The pool is very warm. The food is very tasty, balanced and there is a lot of it. The room is clean, comfortable, provided for adults and children
In my opinion, this is the only decent place to stay in Kazakhstan.
We try to come here every year with our family.
I like everything.Well done! I'll give you a tenner!
The place is awesome!!! I plan to visit again.I liked everything very much!!! The nature is extraordinary, you won't believe it until you visit it yourself! And the climate is just amazing, especially in the hottest summers in Tashkent, it's just super there!!!!
The hotel is great for a holiday! It's a pity that there is no entertainment for the older generation in the evening! The cage bar in the evening is only for young people where hookahs are smoked is not very pleasant, the room is small and smoky!¡!in general, the price of the service is consistent!!!
Kids love to ride with Discovery. In comparison with other holiday homes, good, delicious food, there is something to do throughout the day, cozy rooms.
Cons, everything that requires maintenance (bicycles, water pipes, etc.) is in decline, I want to take tools and bring it to mind. In a Russian bathhouse, you can not give a couple, you need to wait for a specially trained person who appears 3 times a day. The staff wants the best.
I was there in winter, there is a water park, a hot pool, an ice rink, but not very skates and snow slides, as well as delicious food and pleasant rooms!
Discovery is a place where absolutely everything is perfect!
Location, infrastructure, staff, service, food, entertainment.
And all this is seasoned with magnificent pine-birch forests👌
A great place to relax, leisure is very well organized, there is something to do throughout the rest, many saunas and not bad pools are a big plus of Discovery
We had a great rest.There's no time to be bored, there's something to do all day.The food is excellent.But the prices on the premises in cafes and shops are very expensive.
