We had a rest from October 10th to 18th.
I liked everything very much.Russian Russians were just us and our Russian friends from Germany.There were only Germans in the hotel.
The food is very tasty and generous.In recent days, we even skipped lunch, since it was impossible to eat so much))
The menu is very varied and delicious.They cook right in front of you.
There are a lot of meat dishes.Huge shelves with cheese, sausage and vegetable cuts.I can't say anything about alcohol, since we only drank ayran or coffee))
There are many pools and aqua parks on site.
There is a bus to the sea , but we walked.15 minutes maximum.There is also a buffet with drinks on the beach all day long.
There is a refrigerator in the room, which was updated every day with delicious lemonades and water.
The sea is warm and the setting is smooth.
The hotel staff is helpful and kind.Of the disadvantages, they speak only German or Turkish.
There is a BIM shop next to the hotel, where cheap prices are available, as local Turks buy there.
There are several pharmacies opposite the hotel.A girl named Lucia, who speaks Russian well, works at the pharmacy in the shopping center.
There are a lot of homeless and hungry kitties near the hotel.I fed them meat buffet food.She took food in bags and took it to the kitties.
They left for Izhevsk with tears 🥲
A good hotel, we had a rest in October 2018, the sea is warm 27 degrees, the food is super, I wanted everything!!! The aqua zone is large with bars, the beach is great, you can have lunch there, in general, even on the territory of the hotel, even on the beach you can spend the whole day. Hello to Zula!!!
A good vacation in the period from 04.10 - 14.10. We rested in Side, Dream world resort & spa 5⭐.
From ✅ what did you like :
- good location of the hotel. There are a lot of shops, cafes, hookah bars, etc. nearby. There is a place to walk in the evening and buy souvenirs and other small things at an adequate price
- walking distance to the sea (No more than 5-7 minutes).
- close to the airport. 40 minutes and you are already at the hotel!
- the hotel itself is luxurious both outside and inside. Excellent spacious rooms. There were no problems with the check-in
- the sun is much more gentle than the summer, you probably have to try very hard to get sunburn in October)
- in general, as everywhere else, the staff is polite and attentive
- free WiFi throughout the hotel, at any time of the day or night
- all the services of the hotel were provided quite unobtrusively, and not as if you refused and that's it, now you are an enemy of the people)
Of what I DIDN 'T like:
- It will be a little boring for Russians here. Side is a city purely for Germans. With animation and other entertainments, everything is simpler here than in Kemer, for example, no evening programs and concerts. Yes, even with the same games (water polo) and gymnastics in the afternoon - everything is bad, while I note that the animators in our hotel were quite funny guys. It's just that the guests didn't want to do anything but lie down, even the young people😊 maybe someone on the contrary likes such a vacation)
- I'll never forget how we took some grapes from the buffet on a plate, they looked good, they were all covered in water droplets, like they were washed) We almost started eating it, and then we see HOW dirty it is, we just wiped it on a napkin, and it's all covered in dirt ☹
- Disgusting cheap and not tasty alcohol. It is clear that they buy specifically for hotels for pennies, but this is really outright disgusting...Again, we have something to compare it with)
- The water in the pool seemed cool to many guests already, due to the time of year, it simply did not have time to warm up. Note to those who are traveling with children - they will still be cool. By the way, the sea, on the contrary, is very warm, has not yet had time to cool down from the summer heat (therefore, there are extremely many people on the beach by the sea)
- A fairly uniform selection of dishes at all meals. In principle, the dishes even lay in the same locations, that is, I knew in advance where they were, for example, the same spaghetti😑
- there is very little light in the room, as in the whole hotel. Probably expensive in this area, but not so expensive that there are only 2 night lights and 1 round ceiling light bulb in the room, which burned out in the end 😂
CONCLUSION: a good rest, on a solid 4, but now we will only go to places that have been checked (by us or friends). In my opinion, a successful vacation is when you feel sorry and don't want to go home, this time for the last couple of days we really want to go home)))
We once had such a vacation when we really don't want to go home, just 10 out of 10 is Kemer, the L'oceanica hotel, there was a soul in this hotel and I want to go there again! Here it can be safely recommended, it is worth its 5⭐
