The Turkish resort of Antalya is known for its excellent hotels with the beloved "Ultra All-Inclusive" system. One of the advantages of vacationing in Antalya is its proximity to the international airport. Guests who are tired from the flight do not need to travel long distances by taxi or group transfer to get to their hotel. Hotels in Antalya cater to all tastes. However, there are also hotels that offer guests not only comfort but also a thematic twist. One such hotel is the Kremlin Palace.
The hotel's name itself suggests that the hotel's creators were inspired by the famous Kremlin in Moscow. Founded in 2003, the hotel became a sensation in the Russian tourism market. The hotel's architecture replicates Moscow's Red Square, and the main building is stylized as St. Basil's Cathedral. Guests can ascend to the main restaurant on an escalator similar to those installed in the Moscow metro, while the pastry shop imitates the architecture of the famous Bolshoi Theatre.
The hotel is located in the resort village of Kundu, which is famous for its golden beaches. The sand here is soft, and the entry into the sea is gradual and without stones. Therefore, this hotel is ideal for family vacations with children. By the way, there are plenty of activities for children here. There is a children's tented playground right on the beach. On the hotel grounds, there are 2 open children's pools with water slides, a children's club, and even a separate children's reception to delight the little ones. Teenagers also won't get bored, as there is a Junior Club specifically for children aged 13-16.
The hotel's animation team speaks Russian, and they will make sure you don't get bored. Throughout the day, there are fun contests, sports competitions, and evening entertainment programs for hotel guests. At the same time, if you're looking for solitude and peace, there are plenty of areas in the hotel for that too. For example, there is a pier with special pavilions where you can relax away from the noise and hustle.
The hotel operates on an "ultra all-inclusive" basis and offers guests a variety of meals, snacks, and drinks throughout the day. In addition to the main restaurant, the hotel has 5 a la carte restaurants. Guests staying for 5 days or more can visit one of these restaurants for free, but don't forget to make a mandatory reservation in advance.
I would translate this as: "I would like to draw your attention to the fact that in 2022-2023 the hotel underwent a complete renovation and now offers guests new cozy rooms and updated recreational areas."
Overall, this is a great hotel for a fun and carefree vacation. It seemed a bit crowded and noisy to me, but the children's menu and the availability of a blender were definite positives. However, a downside was the relatively small beach for such a large number of vacationers.
