Positief: Netheid, voorzieningen en staat van de accommodatie en faciliteiten
We are two late 30s/early 40s backpackers, from the US. We booked the all-inclusive as a nice "treat" for Christmas week. Overall, the hotel is nice and clean. The buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner had wide varities, though lacking slightly on "western" breakfast options. We definitely never left hungry though.
The kicker: We were the ONLY Americans (or Brits, Aussies, anything...0 native English-speaking guests other than us.) The staff assumed we were Russian like the other 99% of the guests and always spoke to us in Russian. We'd instantly reply in English and they'd quickly smile and switch to English (shocked that we were there for sure). Entertainment was in English at night (music--aside from the Russians doing karaoke).
All in all, it was an interesting stay. I was disappointed about Christmas, they were fully decorated for the holiday but we had zero people say Merry Christmas and zero "Christmas dinner" items that day, which I found off. Why no turkey, ham, mac n cheese, sweet potatoes casserole?
If you have thick skin, don't mind making 0 friends and can laugh at the awkwardness of it all--this is a fine place for some english speakers to chill for a few days.
