Good 6.0

Old unkempt hotel right on the waterfrontThe hotel is very worn out. The room has two rooms, a kitchen and a bathroom. The rather large kitchen only has a sink, a refrigerator, and two very dirty glasses. And empty cupboards. The "living room" has two terribly uncomfortable chairs, a table and a TV - it looks very empty. The bedroom is ok, but the air conditioner did not work. There was a dirty toilet in the bathroom, which was not cleaned even despite the request, and a broken shower, splashing water on all sides. The towels were old, stained and very full of holes! Breakfast was very good, albeit "cheap", but for the sake of it you can definitely wake up early. The elevators worked very poorly and were very frightening. Swimming pool with ice water - it is impossible to swim there during off-season.

Review score 5.2

It's just awful There are bubbly wet streaks on the walls, rust on the ceiling and joints with the wall (streams on iron guides). Everything old, wretched, falls off. The dirt in the sink is age-old - just a black rim around the drain. Even brushing your teeth was disgusting. The area is large, but there is no sense - in the "living room! There are only 2 chairs and a table, and on the wall there is a small TV set (there are many Russian channels). And that's all - no sofa, no kraesla. And there is no TV in the bedrooms - but the entrance to the bathroom straight from the bedroom. And it would be good if it were not for the fact that the door is "on snot", and the paint on it was peeled from old age. There is a paid safe in the closet ... I have never seen such a "miracle of technology" in my life - there a huge keyhole ... to it you need a key like Pinocchio))). In the "kitchen" only a kettle and a sink. Cooking (boiling, frying) there is impossible. And in general, the feeling that all the doors are about to fall off. this hotel still remembers Stalin ... young ... As a result, they changed it to a room in the Flamingo hotel - it's simple, but clean, neat and comfortable.

Exceptional 9.3

Small cozy hotel.Not far from the airport, literally 10 minutes by car. Room for 2 bedrooms with a kitchen. The plumbing is a bit old. 2 large balconies overlooking the beach. Nice beach across the road. There are few people, the water is very warm. Breakfasts are poor, but you won't stay hungry. The dinners are disgusting. All in all a good cozy hotel. The Internet is free.

Holidays on Mackenzie

Svetlana (September 2018). “I would like to point out in my review that Mackenzie Beach is cleaner and more spacious than central Fenikoudes. There are many cafes and restaurants nearby. Lifeguards are on duty at the tower from 10:30 to 18:00. The airport territory begins literally behind the fence, so planes often land. This is a kind of attraction that attracts people here. Everyone loves to watch low-flying aircraft ... "

Natalia (July 2018). “The sea is clean and beautiful, but it's really shallow. Children just right, and adults to stomp and stomp to a deep place. There are always free sun loungers and umbrellas.

Sun loungers at a decent distance from each other. There is a free toilet and shower. Well, planes over the sea are landing! It's like being in the front row at an air show. We are very happy with this family-friendly destination. Great apartment rented 5 minutes walk from the beach. We took big ones for rent (5 euros per day) and rode along the promenade.
