Oba Stadium

Everything was excelente except the spa sauna was not open.

Overall, we had a great time in April and got lucky with the weather. We would gladly visit again which is rare for me! It is a large resort with very modern rooms, spacious and stylish. However, the towels and room cleaning wasn't regularly done and AC failed, as well as loud construction work behind block 4 during our time. The grounds are clean, lots of tiling and nice decor, domes, stylish lighting, props dotted around and bars in convenient places too. There are nice activities available as well as a kids club with soft play, playground and mini disco and games each night. There are various pools dotted around and very good kids and adults slides which was good fun. Need more sun umbrellas as certain areas had none. The amphitheatre shows were excellent. No glass drinks should be allowed as there were broken ones some nights. The spa was good but could do with a jacuzzi and steam room. Great food variety and quality. Nice patisserie place and ice cream always available. Sadly the a la carte themed restaurants are paid for. Sometimes it is nice to be waited on fully which is done at lower star rated restaurants for free. The beach was OK. Needs cleaner pebble free and more shading. Staff are mostly friendly and welcoming apart from a few. English comprehension isn't very good amongst most of the workers, so oftentimes had difficulty getting our drink orders or cleaning carries out correctly. Very good but needs some attention to detail on points mentioned.

A huge resort in a unique "Old-Moscow Style" setting, but you have to like it which I really did. Friendly personal. Varied tasty food options and 2 serviced restaurants (Italian and Mexican). Good spa incl. nice useful hamam. Finally a nice opportunity communicating with fellow-vacationers mostly from Turkey, Iran and the Middle East. Very few Russian tourists, surprisingly
