We visited the hotel in August 2024. Convenient location in the center of the village of Goynyuk, near pharmacies, markets. The food is excellent, there is a food court, a snack bar, a wonderful pastry shop, several a la carte restaurants and a Starbucks coffee shop on site. Alcoholic beverages are mainly imported (Havana Club rum, Chivas Regal whiskey, Bushmills, Jack Daniels, Jim Beam, Tichers, Olmeca tequila, Malibu liqueurs, Baileys, Balls, etc.). Also, bottled beer of local production (Ephesus, Beaumont, Tuborg, etc.) It is worth noting the work of the waiters of the main restaurant, they work smoothly and quickly, as well as the 24-hour lobby bar and diligent bartenders. The beach is large, the entrance to the sea is quite steep, sand with pebbles. There are enough sun beds. 2 large outdoor pools and several small ones. The spa is standard for five, the massage is good. The hotel you want to return to!
A good 5* hotel, within expectations: the sea, a great and large beach, a room (we were given a room with a great view, but there are rooms with a worse view), food (if you choose carefully), a large territory.
You need to understand that every hotel saves on something, they save here too. Not all 5* are the same. There is no crime beyond that, the rest is not spoiled, but there are moments that some of the potential guests may pay attention to. The savings are conscious, you should not expect that these points will be corrected in the future.
– Some of the food is of low quality, the level of canteens, not restaurants. Sometimes you can notice something that was not finished yesterday, in the same or a different form. But if you choose, you can always find something good and safe.
– The child managed to poison himself well with something. He has minus 3 days of rest, and we have minus half a night.
– Most of the sweets are cheap imitations. It looks beautiful, but it's made of something cheap. Far from what you can buy in any good cafe for money.
– Drinks are not of the best quality 1) Coffee (cappuccino) almost everyone does not know how to cook. This is the standard for the tourist areas of Turkey, but in a good 5* hotel you should be able to make coffee. One exception is the bar in the main building and you need to ask to cook with a coffee machine, otherwise they try to cook by pressing a button on a strange vending machine that pours something incomprehensible. 2) Do not call chemistry freshly squeezed orange juice 3) Non–alcoholic mojito is not about anything at all.
- There is animation, you can list for a long time what there is from animation (standard set for 5 *), but there are few evening professional shows. This is when the hotel invites an outside team or an artist and they show an interesting show. 2 times a week, the rest of the days – either nothing (dj and karaoke do not count) or beer entertainment like "the best couple / Mr. Kilikya". It is worth considering that there is nothing to do outside the hotel in the evening – there is one long shopping street, but this is bad shopping – not Kemer, Antalya or Istanbul.
– The air conditioner has been weakened. If you turn it on to the fullest, it will become comfortable only after 20-30 minutes, and cool after a few hours.
– Weak water slides. The highest slide barely rolls, rubs in places, needs to be replaced.
– There are only 2 slot machines in the slot machine room, and the other 4 look like they've been broken for a long time.
– The Internet is limited. This is not a "Free Internet" in any way. It is solved with a SIM card bought on the street at your own expense.
With full responsibility, we can say that this is a very worthy place to relax and enjoy a variety of pleasures. Friendly and customer-oriented staff, cleanliness and neatness in everything, culinary delights and a variety of cuisine and much more make this hotel in demand and worthy of the highest ratings. I recommend and will use the services of this hotel again.
