Great view, fresh air, silence.
Pros: great for a family or a couple; relatively not far away, you can take a taxi from Almaty; good repair; refrigerator, coffee machine, microwave, stove, Wi-Fi and convenient sockets. Cute cats.
Cons: not every car will get to the place, it's hard to find for the first time and there is no direct connection to call on the way; The house (for two) was sometimes shaken when someone went up the stairs, you practically need to take everything with you, expensive bath services, there are not enough shutters on some windows and doors (some people they like to sleep knowing that they are not being watched for sure)
A very cozy house, a fascinating view of the city lights at night, fresh mountain air in the morning. The staff was friendly, helped with a taxi, explained how to get to the place. The house has everything for a good rest.
A good place to relax and reboot. The view of the city is gorgeous. The chalet is on the highest level, and the highlight is the sauna. Special thanks to the organizer for putting his soul into the project.
I rarely write long reviews, but Above the City is actually a very, very cool place. The capacity in the houses is up to 2 or 5 people (to choose from), I usually live in houses up to 5; everything is always very clean and tidy. There are a lot of books for every taste, and Japanese literature, and foreign, and Russian, classical. Guitar, speaker, candles, dishes, electric kettle. The views are simply mesmerizing, both day and night. It's worth coming here for them! Nature, the sky and the city, as if in the palm of your hand. A bath, a vat of water, is a separate conversation, 10/10! These places are the best option to relax, free your thoughts, and get away from the hustle and bustle. There are ottomans, a table and a chair on the veranda, blankets are attached, and, surprisingly, they are absolutely always clean and pleasantly smelling. The landlords are very polite and pleasant people. Clean air, Wi–Fi, a soft bed, in a word, a mess. In general, I come back more than once and I advise you. ;)
Above the City is a great opportunity to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and spend time alone with yourself (family or friends) and nature. It is always cozy and atmospheric here.
A great place to spend a fun and enjoyable weekend. A good sauna and a heated vat with a view of the night city are a separate pleasure.
But keep in mind, it is advisable to drive a car with all-wheel drive, especially in winter.
It's a great place, you can have two, but it's better to have a company. There is also a view of the city, and a sauna with a terrace. There is an interesting barbecue near which you can sit with a company and use it as a table.
Stunningly beautiful location, incredibly friendly hosts, cozy houses, a hot bathhouse, there is an open vat (heated) for taking an outdoor bath at any time of the year and day, as well as a barbecue area, I highly recommend it!
A super place! A gorgeous view, the splendor of nature is almost a protected area, and the air is extremely dark. The service is super , the wood - burning sauna is hot and so sincere . Well, after that, a super sound sleep in perfect silence.
A special atmosphere. You can just sit on the terrace and admire the city. Silence. A wood-burning sauna. Very clean, excellent service, everything is provided for a comfortable stay. Friendly owner Stanislav. We will definitely come back.
30 minutes from the center of Almaty. Get closer to clean air and beautiful views. Especially at night, when the whole city is on fire! A place of rest!
A great place to relax! As a family with children, or just with friends. Great view of the city and fresh air!
It will be difficult to get there by a low car.
An incredible place for relaxation and privacy. A wonderful view of the whole of Almaty, a sauna, swimming pools - what else do you need to find peace of mind? 👍👍
