Alara Park & Residence Hotel

The location is very nice but the food is zero on the basis of the same food so the same taste 5 star ni hotel does not suit people come to give money is pity the hotel

We rested in Alara Park from 10.07 to 18.07.19. This is our first trip abroad. There is nothing to compare with, but I remember something. I share. The hotel area is very beautiful, palm trees, orange trees, clean warm pools, luxury straight. The staff are Turkish and everyone is very polite. Wi Fi is very slow and only in the lobby, but we didn’t come to sit, so this is also an advantage. From the pros, that's all. By cons: Again, the Turks do everything for the Turks first and foremost and with better quality. At the bar for us from alcohol only beer, vodka and whiskey-cola. For Turks and tequila, there is both gin and bailey. The bartender himself (Akin or something like that) in front of me pours himself tequila, seizes with a lemon, I tell me, they say, pour it, he says that this is his personal (so I believed). Cocktails and beer in cheap 0.2l plastic cups (all inclusive ultra 5 *). At what glass is, there is little. My wife asked to make a cocktail in the glass, and in response, they say, it will be a little paid. Although the Turkish woman just took the cocktail in the glass and is decorated beautifully. Near the sea, grandmother sculpts delicious pasties, sculpts slowly, there are only Russian-speaking people in the queue, the Turks just come up, say something to their grandmother and take away as much as they see fit. If there are more than two people in the queue, you don't want to stand. For breakfast, lunch and dinner, there is a problem with queues (I will attach a photo). There is a queue for breakfast: pancakes, scrambled eggs or scrambled eggs. Waiting time approx. 30 min. Everyone is waiting for food for the young Turkish national sumo team. There are not enough tables, you need to occupy. There are not enough forks, if you did not have time for the first serving, you need to look. On the already small beach there are not enough sun loungers, and on the "free" towels of cunning tourists who have reserved their seats and do not know where they go. You need to be brave, and not pay attention to such reserves. In general, in Alara Park you need to constantly compete with someone. The menu is designed for vegetarians. There is no meat, little fish and no, chicken once a day. Vegetables, herbs, sauces are plentiful. Desserts are all the same, soufflés, just with different colors. The baklava is divine. The beer is cheap, but quite drinkable, if not for these plastic cups. The wine is cheap, but normal, table wine. Entertainment is conditional, just everything is squeezed out of the animators, they must be given their due. Music is 90% Turkish. If you ask us to stage something of ours, at most one, and then again the Turkish stage. There is no disco, something like dancing starts at 23-00 and ends at 23-30. And then the agitation of the animators to go to an exit disco for $ 10. Maybe we would have gone, if we were "brought" on the spot, and then we ourselves would have asked to continue at least on the road, at least where (by the way, there is a room for a night disco on the territory). And so a couple of songs in Turkish, Verka Serduchka and silence. In Crimea, people go to the beach to sell baklava and fish, here leather and fur. In general, it is good to rest there, but it can be much better. The potential of the hotel is very good, the organization is weak.

We rested at the hotel from 11 to 21 September. Room for 2 people, very cozy. The nature is fabulously beautiful: palms, flowering shrubs, oranges overhead, 6 outdoor pools. But there were several nuances that caused certain inconveniences. There is practically no beach at this hotel, several lounges along the edge of the coast and 2 piers where you can sunbathe. At home, getting ready for work in the morning, every time I thought that I would sleep on vacation. At the hotel, getting up every morning at 6.30 to take the sun loungers, I consoled myself with the thought that I would sleep at home. The queues at the restaurant were also very shocking, as in the war for bread. There were no meat dishes, but for those that are tastier, there was always a queue. Room service also leaves a lot to be desired. During the 10 days of our stay, the room was cleaned a little bit 2 times and the linen was changed once. We were told that all the inconvenience was caused by the fact that the owner of the hotel had died a few months ago and the hotel was being sold. In general, I am very satisfied, as I was in Turkey for the first time and got a lot of impressions! I would especially like to note the wonderful massage therapists of the Turkish bath Hamam of this hotel, of professionalism, the ability to very accurately determine the disease on the first massage. Healers from God !!!

ETS is a very good 5-star hotel by the tour, and it's a worthless hotel when you go.

Horrible in one word, a hotel like hostels from the 1900s WARNING BAD BAD BAD REALY BAD

Rested in this hotel with a two year old son in May 2014. We have been abroad more than once, so there is something to compare with. What was very impressive was the attitude of the attendants to the child, no one walked past the baby, they kissed his hands and feet, everyone tried to treat him with something. I really liked the citrus garden located on the territory of the hotel, oranges and grapefruits were carpeted on the ground and, with the help of a hand-held juicer, they were turned into liters of fresh juice. They fed mainly fried kidneys and meat in some dishes it was possible to pick. But figs were abundant. In general, the kitchen is a personal matter. The beach is very small, there are a lot of sharp stones, you have to be careful. Also, far from the airport. In general, the hotel is not the best, average. Although a lot of water has flowed under the bridge since then.
