Pros: the territory is not large, but it is very cozy. There are many places for photos. There are gazebos in the shade - mostly people rested on them. Animation for solid 5: aqua aerobics, polo, various parties in the evening., comfortable sofas on the 0 floor on the street (above the restaurant). Bars- alcohol is very decent, I spent the whole vacation with Mr. Johnny Voker and Mr. Chivas. Beer in bars is mostly bottled: corona, Miller, Bex, Ephesus. A great bar on the beach - pizza, fish, nice things, ice cream, any alcohol, beer- draught Ephesus, but delicious!!! The sea is just gorgeous, we were in late September- early October: it's not hot, the sea is fire, we swam for 3 hours a day. By the way, a shuttle from the hotel goes to the beach - every 20-30 minutes. While you're waiting: you can always dive into the bar)).
The food is very, very decent (before the famous events, traveling mainly around Europe by car). There is always a choice: fish (I only ate it for lunch, always different), meat of several varieties, a bunch of greens. We didn't eat the fruit- it didn't seem fully ripe to me. Sweets are just a treat))). Wednesdays are a slave day: king prawns, crabs (you need to be able to eat), salted and smoked trout.- they just ate it up.
Cons- cleaning. The bed has not been changed in 10 days, the balcony has not been cleaned, there was no wet cleaning.. But, the towels are snow-white. There are no bedbugs, the rooms are quite fresh. If the hotel corrects the cleaning, then definitely a solid 5
Nice hotel. The territory is competently and beautifully planned. The beach is great, the sea is super, there is a tiled path to the beach, 10 minutes on foot, a beach bus often runs. There is not much variety in the food, but everything is fresh and by and large delicious. There are enough tables. The SPA is super, everything is clean. The sauna is 100 degrees. The steam room is over 50 degrees. There is a cool swimming pool. The room for three is very large and comfortable, quiet after 0:00. Mattresses and pillows are OK, warm blankets were brought upon request. The air conditioner was cooling well. Everything was in order in the room. Elevators without breakdowns and problems. The pools are clean. The contingent is excellent, without Tagil, the Turks are secular, resting, no one bothers anyone. The animation is mainly aimed at Russian-speakers and Turks, you can dance from the heart. The water park is super! The staff is friendly, all our requests were fulfilled without a reminder. Cons: the dishes in the bars are worn out from the dishwasher and they are washing it, apparently, on too fast mode, it looks disgusting. It's good that everywhere there are refrigerators with bottled water, packaged ayran and paper cups for tea. In restaurants and bars, waiters do not carry drinks, self-service. The snack cafe and snack bar look like the backyards of the station canteen. The coffee from the vending machine is the most disgusting. The covers for the shelter are not perfectly white. The hotel is part of the network and when overbooking is in Port River, people settle in Akadia and, I suspect, in Like & River, which is further away. The bus to Novamall takes about an hour, as it goes around all the coastal hotels. Despite the disadvantages, you can have a good rest. For a little money - a great hotel.
A great hotel for its price, with its disadvantages, but there were more advantages for me personally.
I want to highlight the excellent food, sweets, meat, fish, and seafood were cooked very tasty. Yes, there are seafood here too, as I read earlier, they are served for dinner on Wednesdays. There were shrimps, crabs, mussels, and squid. Everything was enough for everyone, there was no shortage. Every day there is a varied menu, all kinds of meat at the same time, and not as something to choose from, as in other hotels. The sweets are just wonderful, not for the first time in Turkey, but some famous national sweets were served only here. Very tasty!
A mini bar is replenished in the rooms every day, where fanta, cola, beer, water, mineral water, juices. In the afternoon, ice cream Magnate is freely available by the pool, very tasty. On the beach, ice cream in a cone, also individually packaged, is excellent! There is enough alcohol everywhere, imported and local. On request, cocktails were made for everyone to suit your taste.
There is a bus to and from the beach every 10 minutes.
On the 11th bus, a shuttle bus departs directly from the hotel to the ancient Side, there is also the 82 sali pazari shopping center along the way, very affordable prices. There are 2 buses to Novamall Shopping Center. There is a 10 bus ride back to the hotel. Very convenient. The price for 1 person is 35lir=1.5$=1.5€.
Very good-natured staff, I was happy to talk to them in Turkish.
The sea is wonderful, the beach is sand with small pebbles.
One of the disadvantages is not quite thorough cleaning of the rooms, but towels are changed and cleaned every day.
Overall, I really enjoyed my stay! I advise you to relax without children!
