Alanya – kokemuksia

Siisti ja toimiva hotelli hyvällä, rauhallisella paikalla. Miellyttävä, suomea puhuva henkilökunta. Todella siisti allasalue, tuolit ja puhdas vesi. Aamiaisella aika suppea valikoima.

Loma ja matkustus meni ok.Hotelilla hommat hoitui.Iltaruokailu (puolihoito) oli pettymys kuten ennenkin Turkissa.

Friday, we arrived back home from Alanya, and we couldn't be happier. However, if this had been our first experience with Turkey, we would definitely not consider going again. Last year, with Aurinko, we stayed at the beautiful Cettia Hotel in Marmaris, which was a completely different experience compared to our stay at the Avena Hotel in Alanya. The Avena Hotel is located a short distance from the beach, approximately a 5-minute walk. However, crossing the street to reach the beach is a challenge due to the heavy traffic and lack of consideration for pedestrians. It feels like a gamble to make it to the other side safely. There is a tunnel under the street, but unfortunately, it is poorly maintained, dirty, and unpleasant-smelling. Moreover, after heavy rain last week, the tunnel was flooded and unusable. Once you manage to reach the hotel beach, you are greeted with a large stretch of sand. However, the sunbeds are placed far from the sea, making it difficult to enjoy the refreshing sea breeze. Unfortunately, the beach itself is not very clean, and the sea is filled with algae and debris. Moving on to the hotel rooms, they are indeed spacious, and there is air conditioning available. However, the filters of the air conditioning need to be changed as they emit a horrible smell when turned on. Despite reserving a room for three adults, the amenities in the room were set up for only two adults. This included two sets of towels, mugs, glasses, and toiletries. The only thing for the third person was the bed. Although I notified the hotel staff about this issue, nothing was done throughout our entire stay. Additionally, the room was only cleaned twice during the 7 days we were there, and our towels were changed only once. The towels themselves were of poor quality, dirty, and filled with loose threads. The bed linen was never changed, and we had to ask a cleaning lady in the hotel lobby for more toilet paper as it had run out. The hotel has an inner courtyard with a swimming pool. However, due to the tall surrounding buildings, the sun doesn't reach the courtyard except for small areas around the pool deckchairs. This means you have no chance to enjoy a sunset or sunrise from the hotel. Moreover, securing a sunbed facing the sun is a challenge as people reserve them with towels, even if they don't show up until after 10 o'clock. As a result, about 50% of the sunbeds only receive a maximum of 2 hours of sunlight per day due to the shadow cast by the surrounding buildings. Unfortunately, the entertainment at the hotel is very poor. It starts late, is of low quality, and lacks variety. Around 9 p.m., the same mini disco for children begins, where they simply spin in a circle for about 30 minutes with minimal involvement from the animation team. At 9:45 p.m., the program for adults begins, but it lasts for at most one hour. We are fans of Turkish food and have a good understanding of its flavors. However, the food at the hotel restaurant did not meet our expectations. The vegetables, including tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers, had a bland taste. It seemed like they were grown in greenhouses with artificial means to expedite their growth. It was also disappointing that vegan or vegetarian options were not clearly labeled. There was only a section for "diet" food, but it lacked details and often contained meat. It was unclear if the food in that section was simply prepared without salt. And more the hotel is not located in a quiet area, the music and noise from the surrounding hotels and terraces can be heard until 1 am. Overall, our experience at the Avena Hotel in Alanya was far from enjoyable. We hope that these issues can be addressed and improved for future guests.

Hotelli sopivan pieni meille ja henkilökunta ystävällistä. Ruoka oli hyvää ja riitävästi.

Toivoin, että opas kävisi loman alussa edes kerran hotellilla. Kun uusi paikka - vie aina aikansa, että löytää haluamansa paikat. Menee pari päivää turhaan. Vaihtoehtoisesti - kiitos - voisi olla typistetty matkanjärjestäjän kirjanen, josta löytyisi - kulkuyhteydet. bussit, kartta ja mielellään ja puh numero, josta voisi kysyä muutamaa asiaa esim. klo 9.00-12.00. Miksi maksaa lomasta, kun sitten voisi ottaa reittilennon ja hotellin paikan päältä.

Asuin Anna Queen hotellissa jossa oma ravintola hotellin yhteydessä. Erittäin ystävällinen henkilökunta. Ottavat asiakkaat ystävällisesti vastaan. Pienet mutta siistit, uusitut huoneet. Sijainti loistava, aivan Kale- kukkulan vieressä. Kaikki palvelut lähellä. Hotellin allas suht pieni, ei tullut käytyä kertaakaan. Mutta ranta aivan vieressä, mikä iso plussa. Myös iso leikkipaikka lapsille ihan vieressä.

Lämmin tuttu kohde

Alanya näytti taas parastaan niin sään kuin muunkin puolesta.

Kohde on hyvä ostoksiin tai muuten vaan lomailuun. Kivat rannat ja mukava kaupunki.

Tyypillinen turkkilainen lomakohde,
