" Summary: a good choice for a holiday.... "
Submitted By: Mr R Y
Summary: a good choice for a holiday.
1. Entertainment: 7/10 - good for children. The mini club, which was supposed to ease your staying by taking the kids from 10 to 16 and leave you some time for rest actually worked from 10 to 12, and then from 14 to 16, which is extremely inconvenient, since you can't go rafting or do any other activity outside the hotel because of this stupid break in the middle.
Moreover, the slides too have a break from 12 to 14, therefore if you want use slides (which is fun with children) - then you give up the second half of the mini club. And if you get up not at 7:00, but at 9, take a bath and then go to breakfast, then the first half of the mini club time looses its meaning too. At short, the mini club actually pointless, prepare to be with the children most of the time. The children are happy though. 8-)
2. Clean: 10/10 (I read somewhere that there can be problems with room cleaners - we had no problems at all, moreover - the room was not only accurately cleaned, but also decoratively and humoristicaly set up)
3. Quality of service: 10/10 (at first we got quite small room, but since we where with 2 children, we wanted a bigger room - no problemo, in 5 minutes they gave us another room, facing to the sea)
4. Food: 7/10 - of course, it's a matter of individual taste, but we didn't find anything worth describing. Fish and chicken... Since our children eat almost only chicken at home, we can't look at it anymore and therefore where a bit disappointed from the food. Almost no pork, turkey or any other kind of meat except chicken in its varieties. The assortment though was quite rich and we never left the table hungry.
5. All inclusiveness: 9/10 - we had an all-included holiday for the first time and where shocked (positively) by the amount of food and drinks you can get almost everywhere - by the each pool there is some kind of bar or snack-bar where cocktails and hamburgers are served almost all the time. The only thing that was bad was those stupid breaks - the snack bars have breaks at different times (e.g., from 17:00 to 19:00) and if you accidentally fall at this break - you might get something to eat, but will feel like a beggar for food.
First thing you should do after getting a room is to ask:
1. What are the working hours of mini club (I suppose it changes from time to time)
2. What are the working hours of the slides and hammam
3. What are the working hours of all snack-bars and main meal hours
4. What are the times for the discotheque and the entertainment at evening

" We have just arrived back from 2... "
Submitted By: Miss S Atkinson
We have just arrived back from 2 weeks at this fantastic hotel. Our party consisted of myself , my 2 daughters and my parents. The hotel itself is immaculate and cannot be faulted. I was very sceptical before i arrived as other people had said staff at hotel did not cater for english people , but i have to say although we were very much the minority [mostly russian] the staff were fantastic .They really made a fuss of the children and loved the fact that we were english and very polite compared to the russians . The rooms were very clean and modern . The food was varied breakfast was mostly continental , lunch again catered very much for the russian clientel but we always found something good to eat . Evenings were great they had hot and cold food inside and poolside which they certainly went to alot of trouble with . The animation team provided great entertainment all round and again went out of the way to make us welcome . We had no trouble getting a sunbed in the mornings and had a lovely spot poolside every day . I would definately recommend this hotel and will definately be going back very soon

The food was okay, I had food poisoning on my last night that made me ill for two days. The A lar cart restaurant was not very good and dis organised.
This is not a Full Inclusive resort as the Turkish staff have their little money making schemes on site.
Very poor, however the weather made up for it. The beaches are full of stones and there is no Sand. The entertainment room was so noisy it gives you headaches.
They need to accommodate towards the English a little more and understand that their level of service is very low.
Advice: The city was nice, however the Turkish are very sneeky
Activities: not really
